Across from him, Kermit was in a panic as he pleaded, “Mr. Wallace, I… I had no idea my niece was such a spitfire. I’ll drag her back here myself to apologize, okay?”

Kermit almost danced with relief. “I’ll get right on it, sir!”
Overjoyed, Kermit responded, “I’ll go straight away and prepare the funds, then bring them right over to you!”
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, then went out to the door and turned back, “Mr. Wallace, you can rest assured that I will educate Cordelia when I go back!”
Thinking of Cordelia, Calvert flashed greedy desire in his eyes, “Send it again after training next time.”

After dropping Cordelia off at school, Everard returned to the Midnight Scent.
“Boss, everything cool?” The real Calvert asked.
“Nope,” Everard replied, casting a side–eye at him. “I heard there’s a big shot named Calvert in town?”
Calvert froze, stammering out a confused response, ‘It’s a trick to prevent the investigation on you.”
Everard sighed. “Explain why this Calvert invited Cordelia over for breakfast at his hotel?”
Calvert raced his mind raced. “I swear, boss, I’m innocent! I’d never cross you with Cordelia!”
Everard kicked him. “Quit yapping and start digging!”
Five minutes later, Calvert slouched back, his face the picture of misery. Not only was the fraudster using his name, but he was also raking in millions.
“Boss, do you think that Calvert is a good name?”
Everard, buried in his book, didn’t respond.
Calvert got to the point, “The guy’s real nis Calvert, too. A con artist. He’s scammed the Smith family of over a hundred million, and now the Delaney family is about to hand him fifty million.”
