Following a pause, Sabrina huffed, "Tyrone, you're quite clever!"

She clenched her teeth.

Tyrone chuckled.

“I'm flattered."

In truth, her performance had been convincing and he had nearly fallen for it.

Yet, after pondering for a moment, he realized that if Sabrina had known she wasn't Connor's daughter, her reaction wouldn't have been so composed, nor would she have felt the need to apologize to him.

Upon hearing his laughter, Sabrina felt her positive impression of him wane. "Where did I slip up? Or perhaps you didn't release Galilea for my sake at all? Am I being sentimental?"

Tyrone smiled and replied, "Stop the trick. I won't tell you."

Sabrina was rendered speechless

Taking a deep breath, she inquired, "Tyrone, what's on your mind?" “Huh?

“Why do you come to my aid yet keep me in the dark? Why didn’t you tell me that you had engaged in negotiations with Galilea when I asked you last night?"

Tyrone maintained a thoughtful silence for a while before responding, “You mentioned that you didn't require my assistance. I didn't want to annoy you."

Arching her eyebrows, Sabrina chuckled and remarked, “Tyrone, weren't you audacious and not guilty when you orchestrated your scheme against Trevor? Why this sudden fear of my anger?"

"That was a different circumstance," Tyrone retorted, his voice tinged with sarcasm.

“Perhaps you should thank me for providing you with a valid reason to part ways with Trevor."

A wry smile touched Sabrina's lips and she replied, “I'm not here to sing your praises. Are you that dreamy?"

"Yes. Would you like to hear my euphoria while I relish my dream?" Tyrone answered in a tactical way.

Tyrone had anticipated a scolding or a change of subject but to his surprise, Sabrina fell silent for two seconds before saying, “Very well, go ahead."

Tyrone found himself at a loss for words.

He decided to shift the conversation and adopted a stern tone. "Sabrina, how dare you! In your quest for clues, you not only approached Trevor but also became his girlfriend! What other lengths are you willing to go to if you don't obtain the information you seek? Have you ever considered that if Zeke spots you with Trevor, he might recognize you and launch a direct attack?"
