Gino's POV:
When Tasha first asked me to pose as Sylvia's partner and keep an eye on her, neither of us expected things to go this smoothly.
She clearly believed Sylvia would be difficult to manipulate—and she wasn't wrong. Even though Tasha forced Sylvia's hand in choosing a partner, Sylvia didn't just sit back and take it. Instead, she chose the most challenging partner to impersonate—a senior staff member from the artifact department, who happened to be in a wheelchair.
Most people trying to mimic that would've been dumbfounded, but for me, it was child's play. Growing up in a tough environment, I had met all kinds of people, and I could slip into any role like it was made for me.
