Upon considering this, she decided to feign ignorance, “I don’t understand what you’re saying, nor why you would come to bother me in the middle of the night. I have no connection with Lordsworth Estate, nor with Neera. There’s no need for you to belittle me in order to praise her. If you want to gain favor with her, you can go and speak kindly to her face. Why waste your time here?”

Upon hearing this, the mockery on Luna’s face deepened. She took two steps forward and half-knelt in front of her.

“What’s this? You dare not admit it, and you’re pretending not to know now? Phoebe Cox, there’s no point in doing this. We both know the truth.”

Her presence was too powerful, Phoebe didn’t dare to meet her gaze directly. She slightly averted her eyes, stubbornly refusing to back down.

“I’ve said it before, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

With a cold laugh, Luna said, “You don’t know? Alright, let me tell you.”

The dagger spun nimbly at her fingertips, much like twirling a pen, its sharp point occasionally aimed at Phoebe.

“You had your confidant, Nicholas, use the pseudonym Hughes to hire a group of people from Freo Market to assassinate the head of the Gordon family. You thought that since the head of the Gordon family had given all the elite experts to Avery, she would be left without any support, and you could do as you pleased. However, what you didn’t expect was that your seemingly flawless plan was actually full of loopholes. Not only were all the people you sent captured, but even you and Nicholas were exposed.”

“You’re still unaware of the fate of your subordinates, aren’t you? Those people you had Nicholas purchase in Freo Market, they couldn’t withstand the torture and quickly confessed everything. Now, they’ve been sent to Judgment Island, about to be locked up in the water dungeon. I believe it won’t be long before they’re devoured by the rodents in the water dungeon. As for Nicholas, he’s already finished. Have you given any thought to what fate awaits you next?”

Phoebe felt as if she was hearing the voice of hell itself listening to her words.

Her complexion gradually turned pale, the color drained from her lips, and a thin layer of cold sweat crept up her back.
