Christy Xenos was on high alert, but the sudden shout from Wendy Clarke had her jumping in surprise.
Before Christy Xenos could fully recover, Wendy Clarke and Ethan Zhekova simultaneously retreated.
Fortunately, Christy Xenos knew about Wendy Clarke and Ethan Zhekova's plan. Although she did not know how exactly they intended to carry it out, she had at least some measure of preparedness.
Unbeknownst to Wendy Clarke, Christy Xenos already knew and had begun to protect herself.
Originally, Wendy Clarke and her accomplices were working from the shadows while Christy Xenos was the one they plotted against.

Now, Christy Xenos is the one in the shadows while Wendy Clarke and her accomplices are exposed in full view.
Even though Wendy Clarke and Ethan Zhekova had simultaneously retreated, Christy Xenos was not slow to react either.
