Yelena noticed that Thomas Faery was still waiting for her response. She only came to check but who would have thought that he would be completely intimidated by it?! It was like killing two birds with one stone!

"What can you do for me?" She asked, turning to him with a nonchalant face.

"If it's within my authority, I will do whatever you ask but... you should trust me. I'm not the one who attacks you." Thomas Faery promptly said.

"Whatever I ask?" She slightly smiled when one thing crossed her mind. "I heard that you are the one with the highest authority among those who opposed me. I already have so much on my plate and I won't be able to tolerate it if I have to continue dealing with internal issues."
