Netizen I: It seems some of you are still unaware of Phoebe’s true nature. Let me be clear, this woman is no pushover. She used to flaunt her status as part of the Cox family, looking down on everyone. Her smug arrogance knew no bounds. What does she have to be proud of anyway? She’s just an adopted daughter of the Cox family, and that’s an open secret in Phison! 

Netizen J: Exactly. Let me tell you, I have a friend who has always admired the head of the Cox family. She sought help from Phoebe, hoping she could play matchmaker between her and the head of the Cox family. However, although Phoebe pretended to agree, she schemed against my friend behind her back. She drugged her, sent her to another man’s bed, and allowed many other men to take advantage of her. That incident scarred my friend for life, forcing her to leave Phison. It’s heartbreaking. 

Netizen K: Such incidents are not isolated. I’ve heard that many who were fond of Phoebe tried to cotton up to her, and when they thought they’d found a shortcut, they ended up getting cornered, with their reputations completely ruined. Some even had their faces disfigured. One or two cases could be considered a coincidence, but with so many people falling victim, it’s clear she’s been up to no good behind the scenes! 

Netizen L: Ugh, this is just one of Phoebe’s tactics. She may look like a lady of a prestigious family, but she’s nothing more than a wicked old witch. All her methods are crueler than the last. I’ve had enough of her for a long time, but given the Cox family’s influence and wealth, I dare not say anything or show my anger. All I can do is stay meek and quiet. 

Netizen M: We’ve gone off track. Even if someone is seeking revenge on Phoebe, what about those other men? Who is seeking revenge on them? 

Netizen N: Exactly! Plus, I don’t understand why were they all dumped at the entrance of the Bartitsu Guild’s headquarters. Do they have some sort of connection with the Bartitsu Guild? It really makes one think… 

Netizen O: I don’t understand either. Dumping them at the front door of the Bartitsu Guild 

headquarters is just baffling. It’s as if they’re deliberately announcing to everyone that these people belong to the Bartitsu Guild. 

Netizen P: I have a bold assumption… Could they be the same men who were with Phoebe the night before? 

Netizen Q: Wow, Watson, you might be onto something! I think that’s possible!

Netizen R: Jeez, the Bartitsu Guild is getting more and more chaotic these days. First, something happened to the Cox family, then after they left, it was the Gordon family’s turn to have issues, and just yesterday, a riot broke out in the Gordon family. Before that is even resolved, something new happened to the headquarters of the Bartitsu Guild, too. It’s just one thing after another… 

Netizen S: Something’s not quite right. Think about it. The Gordon family has been facing continuous troubles. Just yesterday, there was a major riot at the Gordon residence, and this morning, right at the entrance of the Bartitsu Guild headquarters, these few people were found lying there. Don’t you think there’s some connection here? 

Netizen T: I’m not entirely sure. Who dares to make reckless comments about the affairs of the Bartitsu Guild? We dare not speak nor ask any questions. Just keep quiet about what we know. I think that there’s a conspiracy involved, and it’s a major one at that!

Netizen U: This is just sheer madness. If the Bartitsu Guild’s situation doesn’t improve, I think everyone will be on tenterhooks. The guild really needs to reform. They can’t keep managing things this way. How do they even live their lives when chaos keeps occurring? 

The conversation veered in various directions, touching upon an array of topics but predominantly centering around a common theme. 

Simultaneously, Ian briefed Jean on the recent developments, “Mr. Beauvort, Phoebe has lost her ability to speak, and the others have experienced varying degrees of disability.” 

“Mm. And Matthew? Any response?” 

“There doesn’t seem to be much of a reaction. He simply withdrew his men. As for how he dealt with them, I can’t say for sure. However, given Matthew’s nature, I don’t think he’d care. They’re now mere discarded pawns without significance or value. Additionally, public opinion is intensifying, with some connecting the incident to the Bartitsu Guild. Some even suspect a conflict or contradiction between the Bartitsu Guild and the Gordon family.” 

“All right, understood. No need to worry about him. Matthew is a cunning old fox; he won’t allow things to escalate. He’ll surely find a way to manage public relations.” 

“Mr. Beauvort…” Ian paused briefly, deliberating whether to pose the question. 

Jean glanced at him, his tone icy. “If you have something to ask, just ask. No need to beat around the bush.” 

Ian asked, “Mr. Beauvort, I have to admit, I thought for sure you were going to retaliate against the Bartitsu Guild this time. I also thought you wouldn’t show mercy to Matthew…” 

Jean emitted a cold, bitter laugh, his expression chillingly malevolent. 

“Of course, I won’t let Matthew off the hook, nor will I spare the Bartitsu Guild. But now’s not the time. to act. Although Lordsworth Estate has always been more powerful than the Bartitsu Guild, it’s not guaranteed that we can defeat them in one fell swoop. In the past, I might have engaged in a fight, even in the face of danger, without hesitation. At worst, we would both withdraw, maintaining a standoff. However, the circumstances have changed. My only focus now is the destruction of the Bartitsu Guild and the demise of Matthew!” 

A chilling hostility surfaced between his brows at that point. 

“To achieve this, I must have absolute confidence. I won’t act unless I’m a hundred percent sure of success. What I’m aiming for is a decisive victory! I want to bring them down with one single strike and ensure that I can avenge Neera, making them experience the pain inflicted upon her, multiplied a hundred, a thousand times. I desire to witness Matthew get tormented, bit by bit, leading to his eventual demise, and that day is not far away…” 

Chad managed to persuade Adriana to eat something and then turned his attention to convincing Jean. 

However, Jean still didn’t have an appetite, steadfastly refusing to eat or drink. 

“I don’t feel like eating anything before Neera wakes up. Uncle Chad, take care of Aunt Adriana, and don’t worry about ine.” 

Chad furrowed his brows. “You make it sound so simple. How can I not worry about you? If Neera doesn’t wake up for three days, will you starve yourself for three days? If she remains unconscious for a week, will you stay awake for a week? Jean, have you thought about your own limits? Even if not for yourself, consider Neera. She will wake up eventually, and she will be fine. But how do you think she’ll feel when she wakes up seeing that you’ve fallen sick, wasted away from staying by her side?” 

Upon hearing this, Jean lowered his gaze, falling into a contemplative silence.
