During the events that happened, a figure continued watching Adrian and Jean talking through hidden cameras.

"I see..." Natasha spoke with a neutral expression, sitting in her office while looking at her computer screen, the meeting already over.

"Adrian, you naughty boy," Natasha commented in a neutral voice. "In less than a month, you managed to woo over two teenagers to like you." She spoke as she looked at Felicia's expression.

Natasha was in no way stupid, being an experienced agent and killer, she understood everything that was happening in the school with her sources indiscernible by the public.

From the moment Felicia met Adrian. Natasha was suspicious that that girl was in love with Adrian.

She just had no evidence to prove this suspicion, but looking at Felicia's expression on the monitor, she had the proof she wanted.

"First Gwen appeared and now Felicia ..." Natasha looks at the monitor with neutral eyes. Nobody knew what she was planning.

On this note, Natasha suddenly remembered the conversation she had with Adrian.

"Don't be angry, okay? I respect your decision significantly. If you say you won't allow it, then I won't do it. I don't want to betray your trust. "

Reminiscing upon what he said, Natasha's neutral expression collapsed and a smile formed. "Regarding Felicia and Gwen, I won't do anything, for now, you can settle this on your own."

Natasha had absolute confidence in Adrian. If Adrian said he wasn't going to do it, there was no chance of changing his mind.

Adrian always kept his promises to his family, with not a single blemish on his perfect track record.

All of a sudden, the monitor brightened and caught Jean floating, releasing an impressively bright light from her body and threateningly stare at Adrian. At the same time, the environment surrounding him starts to freeze.

Natasha instantly went into alert mode, whipping her hands to her hidden weapons, but realized who Jean was trying to threaten.

"But the opponent is the host of an entity…" Natasha wondered what to do.

Moments before she decided on her next move, the situation normalized.

Natasha sighed in relief, knowing that her Adrian was safe.

Natasha glanced at the ice, almost unnoticeably melting under the sun's heat and wondered, "When did Adrian get ice powers?"

"Oh? I had forgotten that these girls were here," Natasha remarked while looking at Felicia and Gwen.

'What should I do with them?' She thought.

"Wait, we're talking about Adrian here. There's no way he wouldn't notice that these girls were watching him. So if he let them watch up to this point, did he want to show them this on purpose?"

Natasha thought about the possibility but shook her head in denial soon after.

"He just doesn't want to lie to them, right? He might've just wanted to satiate the curiosity of the girls before it got too dangerous in the future, and they want to find out then." Natasha reasoned while smiling a little. "But his main reason for doing that was probably him not wanting to lie to them. Yeah, that sounds like our Adrian."

Natasha knew Adrian very well, and as a passionate girlfriend, she was dedicated to learning as much as she could about Adrian. It could even be said that the person she knew the most about in this life was Adrian. This was a relatively easy task. Adrian was not very complicated. He just had some personality problems because of his bonded symbiotes.

"It looks like the situation has come back under control," Natasha observed seeing Adrian taking Jean's hand.

Natasha was a very paranoid person in terms of security. This paranoia gets stronger when her protection target is someone she loves very much, and because of that, she spares no effort in ensuring their safety.

The beautiful principal knew that Adrian doesn't need the protection, and it was mostly just for herself. Still, she doesn't want to risk Adrian's safety because of a power that even he doesn't fully understand.

With no extra measures, she wouldn't be able to stay calm.

…

"So when do you want my help?" Jean asked with a neutral expression.

Adrian thought for a moment, with his hand under his chin. "If possible, I want your help today."

"..."

Jean had to think about it for a moment but ultimately agreed. "Yeah, that's possible."

Adrian smiled, pleased to hear that she had accepted.

"I don't want to go back to class right now," Adrian said as he looked around. "So you want to go eat at the cafeteria?" Adrian asked as he looked at Jean.

"Okay." Jean accepted. More level headed, she rethought about the actions that she had taken almost absentmindedly before. With the added benefits of her mission needing her to watch Adrian, it was a win-win for her if she could learn how to control these newfound powers.

She lost control when she thought that Adrian was trying to use her, and that thought was very hypocritical on Jean's part. After all, her mission was to learn about Adrian's powers by getting close to him.

Because of that, she had become suspicious of Adrian.

Jean shook her head in an attempt to clear her thoughts.

'There's no point in thinking about it now. From now on, I'll just do what I have to do.'

"Let's go," Adrian said and started walking towards the cafeteria.

Stopping for a moment, Jean looked Adrian up and down, in thought. 'Now that I look closely, when did he get taller?'

"Coming," Jean responded and caught up to him.
