Me and Addie shared a questioning look before we quietly got out of the car.

Ready to face the fury.

Dejectedly, we walked towards Mattia.

But when Mattia saw us, he smiled.

Yes, he smiled.

"Hello girls!"

Our heads shot up.

"Good morning, Mattia...?"

"That sounded like a question, Kim. All okay?"

"Yes Mattia. I'm-I'm just... Confused?"

"Another question! Why are you confused dear?"

"Nothing, you-you just looked really angry a minute ago, I was just wondering what was wrong..."

"Oh, I'm not angry with you girls. I'm waiting for someone else."

"Oh."

Addie kept silent through the whole exchange.

"So, how did the test go? Are the results okay?"

Mattia asked Addie, obviously trying to change the subject.

Addie looked up.

"Yes sir! Kim's results are..."

She pulled out the results and handed them to him.

I cringed.

But Mattia...?

"These results Kim! Wow. These are... Amazing. I... I'm at a loss for words, I..."

He looked up at me.

Awe sparkled in his eyes, complimenting the grin on his face.

"You are truly special, you know that?"

I was going to say something, protest I was nothing great, when I heard the roar of an engine.

I don't think I was the only one who heard it though.

The original fire returned to Mattia's eyes.

And he looked angry.

I turned towards the parking just in time to see a sleek, gorgeous Ferrari pull into the parking lot.

The engine was turned off, and the door swung open.

And stepping out of the beautiful car was none other than my teammate.

"Charles!"

Charles had fear written all over his face.

And I felt sorry for him.

Until Mattia yelled.

"What is wrong with you?!"

Then I feared for him.

"What? Sir, I didn't do anything...?"

"You didn't do anything?! Leclerc, I don't know which world you're living in, but in my world giving away blueprints, even if they are old ones, to Redbull is a punishable offence."

Addie choked beside me.

And I was shocked. Why would Charles do that?

"Sir? I didn't do that. I swear it wasn't me."

"Leclerc don't lie to me! You had asked for the blueprints to study.  I gave them to you. Now, Redbull is flaunting those blueprints. What did you do?!"

"Nothing sir. I swear! In fact I have them with me right now!"

He pulled his backpack out of his car and produced a roll of papers from it.

"Here you go."

Mattia snatched them and unrolled them.

"These are the original blueprints. But how did Redbull get them?! You were only one to touch them!"

"Sir, I swear I didn't know. I swear it wasn't me!"

"He's telling the truth." Someone said behind me.

It was a female voice.

"I know because I stole them."

The owner of the voice walked out from behind me.

Selene.
