Illiana's POV
I'm nervous right now because I'm going to meet dad after a week of trying my best to ignore his calls and avoid coming to our house. The news about my attack on Michael is all over the news and it is the reason why I'm sure that he's furious.
I slowly walked towards his office to buy myself some time. Carin immediately opened the door when I'm about to knock.
Dang it! How did she know that I already arrived?
"What the hell do you think you're doing Illiana?! Do you really want our organization to fail?" he yelled in anger as soon as I entered.
He then threw the empty glass that he's holding towards my direction. I sighed in relief when he missed my face.
"You failed to kill that insect! It's so simple, and yet you failed!"
If it's that easy then why don't you kill him yourself! I complained mentally.
"I didn't plan to kill him that night. I just did what I did because he already found out my real identity and he wants to arrest me" I tried to explain patiently.
"The doctor said that he's in a vegetative state, and if ever he recovers, there's a big chance that he will acquire amnesia" I added to console him.
"You keep messing up these past few months. You should have asked Carin to take over this revenge thing. She never failed me" he said after shaking his head in disappointment.
I felt hurt by his sudden comparison. I know I messed up, but he should never compare me to anyone. I clenched my fist to suppress the anger that I am feeling right now.
"You just got really lucky now. Even if his chance of recovering is thin, you cannot erase the fact that you failed" I didn't respond.
"How did he find out about your real identity? I made sure that all your records will be wiped out seven years ago" he asked curiously.
"He managed to acquire my old dental records, and then he compared it with mine now"
"But from where? And what made him suspicious that you're Lady Mystique?"
"Maybe he got it from the school records" Carin suggested. "The school's clinic probably kept a file"
I sighed because she's probably right. I remember that we have a mandatory quarterly dental check-up at school. Good thing that she interjected because I don't want to tell dad the reason why Michael became suspicious of me.
"I have the DNA result with me, it was processed in St. Louis Hospital. We need to eradicate my records there and silence everyone in the lab that knows my identity" Dad nodded before pointing his finger to Carin.
"You know what to do, I don't want you to leave any trace behind" he ordered.
"Yes sir, consider this done" Carin answered politely.
"By the way, Illiana, the officers, and I decided to delay the shipment by one month, and our profit declined by 20% because of this" he informed me with an upset tone.
"I apologize for what happened, I promise that this will not happen again–"
"I want you to quit LAPD within this week. You will take my position next month so I want you to work here full-time" he ordered.
I'm not surprised because I am already expecting that he will take advantage of my mistake so he can put me on a leash again. I nodded in response and then I walked towards the door but I stopped to wait for Carin to open it for me.
