Judging by the number of people and their formidable appearance earlier, she deduced with considerable certainty that they were after her life.

At that moment, her brows furrowed, her expression somewhat unpleasant.

“Who on earth is so desperate to take my life? Are they so eager to seize my power, resorting to any means necessary? But even if I die, the Gordon family will still exist. The position of the district president, as well as the seat of the ninth elder, should still fall to the Gordon family…”.

She couldn’t figure it out, nor could she guess who was behind it.

Jean poured her a cup of warm water and handed it to her. “Don’t jump to conclusions just yet. These people are indeed targeting you, but it might not necessarily be for the power you hold.”

Neera did not understand him. “Isn’t that so? What other reason could there be? I have no deep connection with Phison. Apart from this, there shouldn’t be anything else that could make someone hate me to this extent, right?”

Jean pondered and said, “Just like you said, the Gordon family is currently in a powerful position. Even without you, someone else from the Gordon family would inherit your current position. Only if the Gordon family’s power wanes would it be possible for others to step in. So, there’s no need to rush to act against you now. I think anyone with a brain can understand this. Therefore, I feel that this matter might not be as simple as it seems. There might be other reasons.” Then, he comforted her in a gentle voice, “If you can’t figure it out, don’t dwell on it for now. After all, we’ve already caught the culprits. Sooner or later, they will spill the truth.”

That might be true, but Neera’s good mood from the past two days had completely evaporated, her mind filled with the unexpected events of that evening.

“That was close. If it weren’t for lan and the others being there, who knows what terrible things could have happened…” she murmured to herself.

Suddenly, recalling the “Freo Market” that lan had mentioned earlier, she couldn’t help but ask curiously, “By the way, what is Freo Market?”

Jean explained to her, “It’s essentially the black market of Phison. All the under-the-table dealings happen there.”

“Who were those people just now? What kind of people are they?”
