Chapter 1520

“In any case, this is the current situation. Bartitsu Guild has been quite active recently. However, what concerns me more is not the guild but the internal affairs of the Cox family.”

Upon hearing this, Neera immediately asked, “What’s going on within the Cox family?”

“You warned me before to be wary of Albert. After that, I had people keep an eye on him and found that he indeed often had close contact with the guild in private. I had warned him before to cut off his ties with the guild. Now that the Cox family is no longer under the control of the guild, any further contact would be inappropriate. But it’s clear he didn’t take my words to heart. He’s met with the guild more than once in private, but what exactly was discussed, I still don’t know. I always feel that he-”

Neera interjected, “Do you suspect that he might be a mole, conspiring with the guild?”

Avery nodded.

After recalling her previous doubts and concerns, Neera once again shared her speculations.

“Do you remember what I mentioned before? The reason your parents were poisoned is likely due to an inside job. Now that I think about it, the likelihood of Albert being responsible is quite high.”

Her words caused Avery to fall silent.

After some thought, Neera suggested, “Since we have doubts about him and his behavior is indeed strange, why don’t we test him and see what comes out of it? If he’s innocent, we can eliminate that possibility. If he’s guilty, the truth about your parents’ death and the truth about the wug poison in your body will be revealed to all.”

Avery’s heart was stirred. After some thought, he felt it was a good idea, but he still had a question. “How should we set him up?”
