Ironically, Falcon was ignored and overlooked after their leader trained him. Falcon didn't want to end up like this, but his leader's disregard forced him into his current situation.
Bonnie listened, momentarily unsure of how to react. Before Falcon betrayed her, she considered Collin and Falcon her most reliable subordinates.
Bonnie hadn’t handed the organization over to Falcon because she knew he was too ambitious. Over the years, she had kept his ambitions in check, and Falcon never dared to show his true colors.
Her focus was primarily on research, so she had no energy to manage the organization. After much consideration, she decided to entrust the management to Collin to prevent Falcon from running unchecked and potentially leading the organization down a harmful path.
What she hadn’t anticipated was the profound impact this decision had on Falcon. Regrettably, such a promising talent ended up in a situation where they now faced each other as enemies because of one wrong decision.
Bonnie sighed almost imperceptibly, her eyes reflecting a hint of regret. However, regardless of the regret, what was done was done.
She stood by her principles: no matter how much Falcon expressed his remorse, she would adhere to the rules and show no leniency. The mistake was his, and he must bear the consequences.
