"Alright, hang around here for now. Oh, wait, | doubt you'll be able to hang around much longer. Since you're of no use, the Stirling

family has no room for you. Get ready to be thrown out and fend for yourself." Lisbeth said, turning on her heel and striding away.

Agent A felt like he was at the end of his rope.

"Even though | have no clue where he is, I've got ways to find out. Givethe antidote, and once I'm out of here, I'll track him

down."

Lisbeth fell silent for a moment before pulling out a vial of antidote from her pocket, "This will temporarily ease your paralysis,

effective for five days. After that, you need to cback for another shot, or not only will the paralysis return, but it will be worse."

Agent A clenched his jaw, determined not to be outwitted.

It was a trap, clear as day, just waiting for him to tumble in.

"You're all so damn cunning."

"So are you," Lisbeth snorted, "Did you think we'd be foolish enough to give you the antidote and let you waltz out of here?"

Agent A had mixed feelings, "You play a hard game."

"You better find out where Raines is within these five days, or you might not get your next shot," Lisbeth enunciated her threat with

chilling precision.

Grinding his teeth, Agent A shot back, "Do you think you'll be sitting pretty when Raines comes back? You're a traitor, betrayed his

trust, and sold him out. He'll despise you with every bone in his body. The first thing he'll do when he's back is make sure you're

taken care of."

Lisbeth shrugged, "Doesn't matter. I've braced myself for whatever comes. No matter how much he hates me, | can take it. All that

matters is getting him out."

"You're digging your grave," Agent A spat out, "You'll save him, he'll dump you and find someone new. You'll lose everything. And

when that happens, the Stirling family won't lift a finger for you. They'll just show you the door."

"Don’t waste your tstirring things up. Aurelia and Leopold know what's up with me. No matter what goes down, | won't sink

lower than you."

"You're a fool. They're just using you to get Raines back. Once he's safe, you're disposable. They'll kick you to the curb so fast you

won't know what hit you."

"Enough," she cut him off, "You've got five days. Stop wasting tand get moving. Find Raines."

She pressed the syringe into his arm. Not long after, sensation began to return to Agent A's limbs.

Heaving himself up, the taste of freedom was intoxicating.

"If | find Raines, will you givethe antidote?"

"Of course. You haven't crossed the line, just a puppet, really. So, Aurelia and Leopold are willing to give you a chance to pull back

from the brink," Lisbeth replied.

Agent A stretched, feeling life return to his body, "You'll hear from me."

When Lisbeth left the sanatorium, her phone buzzed with a call from Aurelia, inviting her over for dinner at the Stirling Mansion.

They were celebrating Christmas Eve.

Lisbeth, a foreigner in Elysium, was experiencing her first Christmas, akin to the new year back home. How she wished Raines

could be there.

Could Raines forgive her if he returned?

Arriving at the Stirling Mansion, Aurelia took her hand, "Did you let Agent A go?"

"Yes," Lisbeth nodded, "Whether he finds Raines is up to him now."

"We can't put all our eggs in one basket. Leopold is working on other plans," Aurelia reassured her.

All they could hope for now was for Raines and Elfreda to be safe. If they could rescue them in tto celebrate Christmas

together... that was the wish closest to their hearts. Their greatest fear was that AK Group had poisoned Raines to control him, a

tactic all too common in their ruthless playbook.
