Keira stared at the message, snorted softly, and didn't respond. She tossed her phone into her pocket.

Then she turned to Old Mr. Sims. "I'll take you back."

Old Mr. Sims sighed but said nothing. He slowly turned around and, with the help of his walking cane, walked back into the prison he had built for himself.

After escorting Old Mr. Sims back to his office cell, Keira exited the building, only to see Holly with red-rimmed eyes standing there, watching them. "Keira, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Keira patted her shoulder. "You never have to apologize to me."

Holly wiped her tears. "But you shouldn't have stood up for me. Do you know that many people in the Special Division were cursing at you just now?"

Keira replied, "A few curses won't hurt me."

Holly choked up. She looked at Keira and suddenly recalled how, in junior high, it was Keira's fearless spirit that had attracted her in the first place. So many years had passed, and her girl had never changed.

Holly clenched her fists. "Keira, I won't make things difficult for you."

She turned and walked toward Brian Dawson's office.

Keira blinked. "What are you going to do?"
