    Chapter 1431


    After Jean left, Neera felt an emptiness in her heart.


    However, she knew she had to stay focused.


    95%


    The conflict with Bartitsu Guild was gradually reaching its peak. She couldn’t afford to lose her footing


    nor show the slightest hint of vulnerability or unease. She had to pull herself together.


    By Jean’s side, she could find reliance.


    At that moment, however, she was all alone. She had to stay strong and believe in herself.


    Due to the sudden departure of several key members from the Gordon family, Neera was worried that


    Bartitsu Guild might seize the opportunity to strike at the Gordon residence. Therefore, she arranged


    for manpower, fully alert and ready to deal with any crisis at any moment.


    Just as she had predicted, Bartitsu Guild used the explosion incident in the other three districts to


    continue stirring up public opinion. The uproar was deafening, pushing Neera to the pinnacle of public


    attention. Thements made by theizens were rather one-sided.


    Come on! You’re kidding me! Not again! So, looking at it this way, from District Twenty-One to District


    Twenty-Five, they’ve all been hit by disaster. Isn’t this too much of a coincidence? What on earth is


    going on?


    What on earth is Neera doing managing her five districts? Two districts have had issues consecutively,


    and she still hasn’t realized the severity of the problem. What is she up to? Is she brainless?


    The Gordon family is really in trouble now. How did they end up with such a new head of the family who


    can’t handle anything? What’s the use of her?


    Outrageous! Are these explosions idents or caused by someone? Can idents really be this


    coincidental? Somehow, I sense a hint of conspiracy in all this.


    It’s clear that someone did this on purpose. How could it possibly be an ident? They must be


    targeting the Gordon family. Could this be some form of retaliation?


    To be more precise, I think they’re targeting Neera. Think about it. The Gordon family has been a


    steady presence in Bartitsu Guild for over a hundred years, always keeping a low profile and never


    causing any trouble. But ever since Neera joined the Gordon family, one thing after another has


    happened. First, they gained a lot of attention, and now they’ve be a target, with one incident


    following another. If you ask me, this is a ssic case of someone not being suited to their position,


    and it’s bound to lead to problems.


    Perhaps Neera has provoked some enemies, so they targeted her five districts. No matter how you


    look at it, the Gordon family is unlucky, getting dragged into this mess by Neera. And as for the five


    districts, if they had submitted to Bartitsu Guild earlier, they probably wouldn’t have ended up in this


    situation.


    I’m so curious. Who on earth has Neera managed to offend? She’s only been here for a short time and


    has already caused a big mess for the Gordon family. She’s really something. The other party must not


    be easy to deal with, able to stir up so much trouble while the Gordon family is unprepared. They’re


    really a tough nut to crack.


    Let me specte for a moment. Could it be Bartitsu Guild? As far as I can recall, aside from the Cox


    family, the Gordon family only has some connections with Bartitsu Guild. Wasn’t there a rumor going


    around a while that someone from Bartitsu Guild dealt with a member of the Gordon family?


    ago


    As soon as that idea was proposed, it was immediately rebutted.


    It can’t possibly be Bartitsu Guild. Also, if it’s about the Gordon family’s affairs, it should be about the


    Gordon family seeking revenge against Bartitsu Guild. So why is it that the Gordon family is the one


    suffering now?


    Exactly, and didn’t Bartitsu Guild propose to offer Neera the position of the third elder seat? They also


    want to elevate the status of the Gordon family. This should be considered indirectpensation,


    right?


    Bartitsu Guild has already gone this far. Why would they target the Gordon family? Isn’t that just asking


    for trouble…


    Due to the overwhelming number of rebuttals, the so-called conspiracy theory was quickly suppressed,


    and soon no one brought it up again.


    Neera flipped through the inte, and she couldn’t help but sneer when she saw theizens


    speaking up for Bartitsu Guild. I have to admit, Matthew, that old fox, really knows how to scheme. The


    trap he set long ago was waiting right here! Previously, Matthew intentionally spread the news that he


    wanted to promote me to the board of elders, all for the purpose of creating a false impression in front


    of everyone. Now, everyone assumes that Bartitsu Guild, whether out of sincerity orpensation, is


    trying to win over the Gordon family. They also believe that the negotiations with the Gordon family are


    almostplete, so it’s unlikely they would take any action against the Gordon family. With this, the


    matters concerning District Twenty-One and District Twenty-Five have nothing to do with Bartitsu Guild.


    Ultimately, I’m getting the me. He probably knew everyone would assume that it was my poor


    management and knack for stirring up trouble that brought disaster to the Gordon family and the five


    districts.


    “Heh…” The corner of Neera’s lips curled up slightly, a cool, mockingugh escaping her. “Such a


    cunning man.”

    Adriana knew who she was talking about, and she let out a soft sigh. “After all, he has lived for more


    than half of his life. It is said that he was groomed to be the leader of Bartitsu Guild from a young age.


    He was exposed to intrigue and deception from childhood. Thus, his schemes are naturally profound,


    not something an ordinary person can outwit. You’re still inexperienced in the ways of the world, so it’s


    only natural that he was able to manipte you. What’s surprising is that Chad had let go too quickly,


    never expecting Bartitsu Guild to be so wildly ambitious. He wasn’t careful enough, and he feels


    somewhat guilty about it now.”


    Neera bit her lip corner, shaking her head. “This isn’t Uncle Chad’s fault. He never wanted to get


    involved in these conflicts. It’s just that people are unpredictable. Who could have foreseen that


    Lordsworth Estate would simply hand over such an important position as district president to me? And


    who could have imagined that Bartitsu Guild would stoop so low just to seize the position?”
