The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1217

Neera finally understood. “In all matters, profit comes first. To ensure the prosperity of the Bartitsu Guild, we must ensure the prosperity of the Massey family. They rise and fall together. Therefore, even the elders dare not act recklessly against the Massey family.”

Darcel nodded. “Exactly. Haven’t you noticed? Even though the Massey family was ambushed, they weren’t annihilated. They even left Cayden alive. The reason those people did this was simply to ensure that the Massey family wouldn’t have the chance to compete for the district presidency, and also to ensure that the Massey family wouldn’t experience any turmoil due to this conflict.”

Neera took a moment to digest these words, feeling somewhat moved.

“I never expected it to be this intricately complex, with so many nuances.”

The corners of Darcel’s mouth lifted slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

“Indeed, in this land of freedom, various forces are suppressing and competing with each other. On the surface, things may appear calm, but there’s a raging storm beneath it.”

Then, he added, “I agreed to let them go together because of Cayden. However, we still need to be cautious.”

Neera nodded. “Yes, I know that.”

As the two were talking, Cayden had joined them unbeknownst to them.

Neera gave Darcel a glance, noticing a slight tuck of his chin. Then, she decided not to hide anything and revealed her true identity to him.
