reread the paragraphs from the passage.

\want a treat?\ amal desperately thrust out a fisted palm.

though wary, scout approached closely enough for amal to grab her collar.

\cmon, scout—after this, id say we could both use a reward. lets celebrate the fact that you just saved my new career!\

what does the phrase a reward refer to?
options: a fisted palm, a collar, a treat, a new career
\cmon, scout — after this, id say we could both use ​.\

Explanation:

The passage opens with Amal offering Scout "a treat" using a fisted palm. Later, Amal mentions "a reward" right after referencing their shared celebration, so "a reward" logically refers to the earlier-offered treat.

Answer:

a treat
