“Is there really an assassin?” Peggy looked at Cameron’s anxious demeanor with her brows slightly furrowed. “Of course. Why would | lie to you?”
“Where is Ms. Jones now? We need to find her quickly!” Cameron asked, his voice tinged with urgency. “Don't worry, Ms. Jones is safe,” Peggy reassured him. “Otis is personally responsible for her security
this time.
Her words calmed Cameron down.
“You've met Otis. He’s a top-notch expert, much stronger than you!”
Despite Cameron’s impressive rescue from the mercenaries last time, Peggy considered his skills far

Otis was a real expert. He could break rocks with bare hands, while Cameron’s efforts seemed more flashy but ultimately ineffective to Peggy. If Otis had been there, Peggy knew his mere presence would have subdued the enemy without even trying.
However, Peggy was unaware of a crucial detail. The ability to restrain one’s power was often more challenging than showing it.

“You're putting on a serious act after getting caught red-handed?” Peggy noticed Cameron’s sudden change in demeanor and scoffed, “Typical men.”
“You pervert, what are you doing in the women’s restroom...” Peggy followed.
She intended to scold Cameron for his inappropriate behavior. However, her expression shifted as she entered the restroom, and her words trailed off. She saw Cameron staring at the restroom’s high window, the one used for ventilation.
And that window, which had been closed when she entered the restroom earlier, was now open.
