Chapter 3564 Was It Really Gloria


    It had to be said that Floyd’s attempt to turn the tables proved efficacious.


    The part where he said “our rtionship haspletely changed,” in particr, shifted Forlevia’s understanding of the situation.


    That was because she had previously questioned his rtionship with the woman from the lesiastic Order. At the time, Floyd clearly told her he had cut off contact with the woman.


    Therefore, her first interpretation of the phrase “our rtionship haspletely changed” was that the pair had moved from being almost lovers to strangers.


    However, what Floyd actually meant was that what he once thought was unattainable had turned into reality. They were now a married couple who shared the same bed.


    Of course, that was just what Floyd thought. It was nothing more than an illusion.


    After a brief pause, Floyd continued, “Moreover, Master sent word that some people from the Holy Guild said Xs could be cultivating evil arts from the deviant ns. Evie, I don’t know what else to say at this point. Once the seed of doubt gets nted, it’s difficult to uproot it.”


    Forlevia could not bear to see Floyd looking miserable.


    “I didn’t mean to doubt you, Floyd. It’s just that it’s such a strange situation, and I need to eliminate all suspicions. I spoke too presumptuously earlier. Please forgive me.”


    After all, Floyd is Daddy’s beloved disciple and only second to me in terms of the base’s corebat prowess. Hence, I’ve no wish to create a rift between us. He seems sure he didn’t disclose anything to others. Indeed, he sounded very confident in thetter part of his exnation and didn’t appear to be lying. His initial nerves were likely because he remembered how everyone once suspected him. What with the anger within him and the feeling of being wronged, he probably couldn’t help speaking a little incoherently.


    “I don’t me you, Evie. It’s a unique situation, so you weren’t wrong to be cautious.”


    Floyd was acting all kind and understanding again, which only made Forlevia feel even more stricken with guilt.


    I tried intimidating him while questioning him earlier, yet he doesn’t utter a single word of me orint.


    “Thank you for understanding, Floyd. Everything’s fine now. You can get back to your work,” Forlevia said with a smile.


    Floyd nodded, then turned to leave.


    It was not until he was out of Forlevia’s sight that he heaved a sigh of relief.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    He had felt immense stress while answering those questions under Forlevia’s intensely pressuring aura.


    Bute to think of it, did the technique Xs use originate from the one Evie created herself? Although we received news from Master mentioning it was most likely a technique from the deviant ns, it’s not entirely impossible. And if that’s the case, the only person who could’ve leaked the information is Gloria. It couldn’t have been any of the others cultivating Evie’s technique. However, I genuinely hope that’s not what happened. Otherwise, Gloria and I would be mortal enemies, and everything good we have now will vanish.


    “No! I can’t let that happen!” he dered emphatically while loudly denying the possibility in his heart.


    “Perhaps I should ask her about it,” he mused.


    However, he dismissed the thought as quickly as it surfaced.


    If I ask Gloria directly, it’d mean I suspect her. It wasn’t easy to change her attitude after what happened with the spiritual ley line. If something simr happens again, I’m afraid it’ll ruin our rtionship for good. Of course, Gloria is such a kind and understanding person that things may not end up that way.


    Nheless, Floyd dared not risk it, nor did he think it necessary.


    “I’ll just have to confirm my suspicious using another method,” he muttered, the wheels in his head whirring.


    After pondering for a long time, he finally struck on an idea.


    Since I can’t ask directly, I can make a judgment in person! I’ll be able to tell whether she has continued to cultivate Evie’s technique as long as I meet her.


    I may not have been able to discern it before, but my abilities have improved since I’ve also been cultivating that technique. As long as Gloria is still doing it, I’ll be able to tell with just one nce.


    “That’s what I’ll do!”


    Having made up his mind, Floyd immediately used the urgentmunication method to contact Gloria.
