Except, earlier in the book, Laila wanted to barge into that Labbie’s lab… but didn’t because it would endanger their life.
When Laila is interrupted during the intense magical wielding in her lab (which is a huge no-no, as the magic practitioner could actually die if they’re interrupted), she doesn’t report the Labbie because she understands why they did it.However, the intruder isn’t caught until the end of Magical Intentions! While I can understand the need for a sub-plot, it creates this odd schism in Laila’s personality. But the Boss finds out, and he promises to find and eviscerate that person only for Laila to be like no, that person is mine, they violated my space, which is where the Boss concedes as long as the perp is found ASAP.

Her skills are then put to the test when the Boss wants her to improve the security measures of the firm’s facility. However, in reality, Laila is a 19-year-old magical prodigy employed as a “labbie” (researcher/creator of magical weapons and tools) for the security firm Biomystic.
The book summary suggests that the heroine, Laila, must undergo training to work in an elite magic team to go out on a mission that the Boss wants her on. Magical Intentions was an odd book, as its synopsis didn’t really allude to the plot. I was a bit hesitant about buying this book because I honestly had no clue what to expect.
