Chapter 335 Your Answer

Freya spoke sharply as she sat on the edge of the bed. “We’ve got a situation back at Axeworth Corporation.”

Gizem’s brows furrowed. “What happened?”

“There’s a traitor among us.” Freya shot a side-eyed look at the former.

“You know who it is?” Gizem asked.

With eyes still locked on Gizem’s face, Freya answered, “Honestly, I think it’s best if you stop using this hyper-realistic face mask. Someone else has been using your current face and going around causing trouble. Not only has she upset Blissful Sect, but she’s also provoked other organizations. I hear people have already hired assassins to come for you.”

Assassins? The thought sparked a dagger-like sharpness in Gizem’s face. “Let them come. I’m not afraid of them.”

After all, it was not her first time dancing on the thin blade between life and death.

Still, Freya urged, “Shouldn’t you focus on finding the impostor since it’s a pressing matter?”

“There’s no need. I already know who it is.” Gizem then calmly revealed, “Lauren Xenos.”

“Lauren?” A hard look formed on the dubious Freya’s face. “How’s that possible?”

“A few days ago, she posed as me and lost a hefty sum in Lusterg’s casinos,” Gizem instantly replied. “Her actions caused Samuel to misunderstand my intentions. At the time, I phoned Master and asked him to resolve this matter. However, it’s been days, and he still hasn’t made a move. It even seems like he’s allowing things to intensify.”

Freya hesitated but eventually chimed in on the topic, “Gizem, don’t you think that Master has gotten old?”

“Old?” Gizem raised a brow.

Nodding, Freya elaborated her argument. “Yeah. He’s old now and can no longer make prompt decisions, so we can’t rely on him. Do you understand?”

A dark gleam flitted across Gizem’s eyes when she heard that. “What are you implying?”

That was when Freya stood up and approached her. “Gizem, Aren’t you here to complete a mission under his orders? Isn’t it odd that Master never deigned to tell you what the mission is about? What if he asks you to sacrifice your life? Would you do it?”

“He’s not that cruel,” Gizem’s icy tone defended.
