Adam sat inside his private hostel room.
Most students did not get rooms like this. The hostel usually placed two students together, sometimes more when space was tight. Adam had expected the same when he returned.
Instead, the college had given him a separate room.
That had happened because of Aster Core.
Kenji and Kiri had offered enough support that the college started treating Adam differently. The staff did not say it openly, but Adam could feel it. Even this room came from the same place, along with the cleaner bed and the softer treatment.
Right now, he was sitting near the small table with a phone in his hand.
Darien Holt was on the other side.
"I checked the work you gave me," Darien said. "I also found someone who can help with the foreign side."
Adam listened quietly.
"Now send me the documents of the person you want to send," Darien continued. "I need to start the paperwork. If we delay, the trip gets delayed too."
"How much time?" Adam asked.
