    Gritting her teeth, Neera said coldly, “Back then, you brought it all upon yourself. What did it have to do


    with me? It was the Logan family who had ill intentions. The Gordon family never provoked you. Yet,


    you repeatedly attacked us and tried to annihte us. You were the ones whomitted evil first, so


    how was it my fault? Is there such logic in this world-whoever does evil is in the right?”


    With a sneer, Howard casually stuck his hands in his pants pockets, all nonchnt.


    “Indeed, it was the Logan family who made the first move. But so what? If the Gordon family had


    behaved themselves, you wouldn’t have be a thorn in everyone’s side. If it weren’t for you


    suddenly bing the head of the Gordon family and saving the lord of Lordsworth Estate, those of


    Lordsworth Estate wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to protect you, much less willingly hand over the


    position of the district president to you. Who do you think you are, Neera? You’re neither a member of


    the Gordon family nor a citizen of Phison. You have no qualifications or experience, so why should you


    get so much? Just because you saved someone? What does that even count? How are you possibly


    worthy of the position of district president? Bartitsu Guild even promoted you to the board of elders in


    the guild. Looking back at it now, it’s the joke of the century! Bartitsu Guild has always valued strength


    above all else. What right does a third-rate family like the Gordon family have to rule roughshod over


    me?”


    Neera found him truly unreasonable.


    “I treat people and save lives because it’s my calling. Is that wrong? When I happened to save the lord


    of Lordsworth Estate, I never thought of asking for any reward. I myself didn’t expect things to turn out


    the way they have today. You im that Ick qualifications and experience, and I admit that. But


    whether I’m worthy is not for you to judge. If I’m unworthy, it goes double for you! Someone not only


    sinister and vicious but also despicable and shameless like you is no different from the members of


    Bartitsu Guild!”


    “Hah, no different? How righteous do you think you are? You’ve indeed done nothing wrong, but you


    should never have appeared in Phison. If there’s anyone to me, it’s Chad for bringing you back from


    the outside, and even more so for promoting you to be the head of the Gordon family. Then, there’s the


    Gordon family to be med for harboring ambitions to seize the position of district president and you


    for standing out too much, stealing the limelight of others. That’s what brought about the current


    disaster!”


    At that moment, Phoebe stepped forward and shot him an impatient re.

    “Are


    you done? You’re going on and on about such a trivial matter. Enough with the nonsense. Get her out


    of here first.”


    When Neera heard that, her expression grew increasingly grim.


    She stared intently at Phoebe, the look in her eyesplex.


    It had been a while since theyst met, and thetter’s hair had grown out to reach her shoulders.


    Her beautiful face was still as attractive as ever. s, it had evil written all over it. Her gaze was as


    venomous as a viper’s, radiating malice and calction at every turn.


    Taking a deep breath, Neera said solemnly, “Phoebe, do you even know what you’re doing? Bartitsu


    Guild has repeatedly suppressed the Cox family, even attempting to eradicate itpletely. Avery has


    already led the Cox family away from the guild. Yet, you’ve chosen to defect to the guild. Are you


    nning to abandon your family?”


    Upon hearing that, Phoebe suddenlyughed. Herughter was wicked, carrying an added touch of


    malice.


    “I abandoned the Cox family? Who exactly did the abandoning? Neera, it’s because of you that Avery


    gave me the boot. I’m no longer a part of the Cox family! He even used family discipline on me! No one


    had dared to strike me since I was a child. Despite not having been particrly good to me, he had


    neverid a finger on me! But ever since you came into the picture, he’s been growing increasingly


    colder and impatient with me. He even used family discipline on me because of you and banished me,


    telling me to never return to the Cox family! It’s all because of you that I lost the backing of the Cox


    family. I’ve got nothing left. I’ve lost everything! Do you know how hopeless I was at that moment? I had


    nowhere to go, and my only option was to seek defect to Bartitsu Guild. And all of that is thanks to you,


    you b*tch! And now, you have the audacity to use me, saying that I betrayed the Cox family. How


    utterly ridiculous! You know what? The despair I felt previously has now been reced with hatred. I


    wish nothing more than to skin you alive, tear you into pieces and feed them to the dogs! Only then


    would I be gratified!”


    Adriana was so furious that she almost burst a blood vessel. She barked sharply, “How could you be so


    malicious! The Cox family and Gordon families have always been on good terms. I’ve always thought


    that the members of the Cox family were fair and reasonable people, but I didn’t expect them to raise


    someone like you!”


    “Shut up! You’ve got no right to speak here!” Phoebe red at her. “Who do you think you are, daring


    to lecture me? If Chad weren’t smitten with you, he would never have handed the position of the head


    of the family to your niece! In fact, you’re also to me!”


    Instead of being enraged by her words, Neera was slightly taken aback instead.


    She was unaware that Phoebe had already been driven out of the Cox family by Avery and also didn’t


    know that Phoebe had been punished with family discipline before being banished.


    Upon hearing the news, she couldn’t help but feel a touch surprised.
