The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1249

“The other families who had used firearms against the Gordon family were also punished by a neutral party, and their influence is no longer as strong as before.”

Upon hearing that, Chad’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Did the neutral party make the judgment, or was it a request from Lordsworth Estate?”

Avery shook his head. “I’m not quite sure about that. Although the Jennings family was at fault, Stella has already lost her life, and the Jennings family has been expelled from the Bartitsu Guild.

The Jennings family hasn’t gone that far.”

Chad chuckled lightly. “To have persuaded even the neutral faction, Lordsworth Estate really surprises me. Could it be that the lord is clearing all obstacles for Neera out of gratitude toward her?”

Avery thought the same, but nothing was certain at the moment, so it was hard to say.
