If that bitch has nothing to do with the Pit Viper I'll be honestly impressed by this. That being said this chapter did make it look like the Director might be doing it on his own and perharps she didn't even know what she was doing while helping him.
So there's precedent for someone labeled as a failure to achieve more than those who weren't... IN HIS OWN FAMILY... And the story STILL follows this kind of path? Dropped.
