When James heard that, he thought Nina had lost her mind. He thought, “That’s one billion, not 10 dollars. Is she really giving it away p>
Nina just shrugged and said she’d get it all back eventually. She said she never made a deal that didn’t pay off.
The next morning, Patrick arrived before Nina had even gotten out of bed.
Nina now held the highest status in the Swanson family. As long as she was still asleep, no one would dare interrupt her, so Patrick was left waiting in the living room.
Patrick waited for over an hour before Nina finally made her way downstairs. He rose to his feet, his expression calm and composed. “Morning, Ms. Swanson p>
Nina gave a slight nod, took the seat, and gestured for Patrick to sit.
Once Patrick was seated, Nina asked, “Is everything set p>
Patrick nodded. “Yes, it is. The people I brought this time are reliable in character and skilled enough. Protecting Ms. Hawthorne won’t be an issue p>
He’d planned to come a few days ago, but Nina wanted the people protecting Miranda to be both trustworthy and skilled, so he took his time choosing.
As for the rest of the Shadowblade Syndicate, Nina said she could arrange jobs for them.
However, after thinking it over, Patrick decided not to take her up on that.
Nina paid him well enough, and he planned to use the money to rebuild the Shadowblade Syndicate.
Therefore, he had the rest of the crew focus on rebuilding the Shadowblade Syndicate.
“You’re not going to be in charge of Miranda’s protection,” Nina said.
Patrick looked taken aback. “Ms. Swanson, do you think I’m not up to the task p>
“I have other plans for you,” Nina replied. She pulled out her phone and made a call.
Soon, a stunning woman with an icy expression strode in. It was Falconer. She gave Patrick a cold glance, then walked up to Nina and said respectfully, “Boss p>
Nina nodded, then turned to Patrick. “This is Falconer. From now on, she’ll be overseeing Miranda’s training. Tell your people their job is just protection, and they’ll take orders from Falconer p>
Patrick frowned. “May I know the reason p>
Before Nina could reply, Patrick continued, “No offense, but the Shadowblade Syndicate has always taken orders from me. If someone just shows up and starts giving orders, I’m afraid they won’t be happy about it p>
“That’s your problem to solve,” Nina said, her tone icy. “If you want my money, you follow my rules. If you can’t, you’re out p>
Patrick panicked. “That’s not what I meant, We were originally hired to protect Ms. Hawthorne. Now the plan is suddenly different, so I just p>

The salary Nina offered was more than enough.
The Shadowblade Syndicate had been having a rough time these past few years. This job wasn’t easy to come by, and he didn’t want to give it up.
Nina said, “Something came up, and I need someone else to train Miranda. I trust the Shadowblade Syndicate, but what you practice isn’t right for her.
“I need her to grow fast. Falconer was trained in lethal techniques. She’s the only one truly fit for this p>
Nina had wanted to train Miranda herself, but she had too much going on right now.
Scarlet was still missing, and she still had to work on her special formula. She needed to get a solid plan together for what was coming next.
She just didn’t have time to train Miranda step by step.
“Got it. I’ll let them know,” Patrick said, pausing for a moment before adding, “So, what do you want me to do p>
“Come with me to Betrico,” Nina replied.
