    Over the past few years, Jean had technically retained the “honorary title” of an Abyssal Choir bmember/bb, /bbbut /bshe had long since withdrawn from its affairs. She’d even cut ties with the other members, Ludwig bwas /bbthe /bonly one she still kept in contact with.

    Because of that, she honestly had no idea what the current state of the Abyssal Choir was.

    For all she knew, the organization could have undergone drastic internal changes a long time ago.

    Perhaps, under mounting external pressure, the Abyssal Choir had alreadypleted a full transformation.

    Sarah, watching Jean lost in thought with her gaze lowered, began to lose her patience. “You don’t have anything to say?”

    Jean snapped back to the present at the sound of her voice.

    Her expression darkened; a cold glint sparked in her eyes. “Sarah, shouldn’t I be the one questioning you?”

    She let out a sharpugh. “So you really want me dead, huh?“…

    Sarah’s expression remained unchanged, calm andposed as always. She didn’t try to hide anything. In fact, she admitted it outright. “Yes, that’s exactly what I want. So what?”

    She truly did want Jean gone.

    The girl standing before her wasn’t just someone she hated–Jean always gave her this unsettling feeling.

    There was something unique about Jean’s presence, something that made Sarah feel that if she didn’t eliminate her now, this girl would be a huge threat down the line.

    That was the main reason she wanted Jean dead, tonight had seemed like the perfect opportunity.

    But she hadn’t expected Ludwig to show up out of nowhere.

    That guy was strong; she’d experienced his power firsthand, so the moment he appeared, she had immediately scrapped her n.

    Still, the night hadn’t been a total loss.

    She’d picked up that badge, and with it, uncovered the secret Jean had been hiding all along.

    Jean hadn’t expected Sarah to be this blunt to actually admit it so easily!

    She chuckled lowly, brows arching. “You’re not afraid I’ll tell the Ginger family about all this?”

    Sarah looked unfazed. “Go ahead. I didn’t leave a single shred of evidence at the scene. It’s just your word against mine. As long as I don’t confess, the Ginger family will just think you’re ndering me.”

    iWell/i, idamn/ii. /iNo iwonder /iishe’s /iithe /iifemale /iilead/i. iShe /iireally /iidoes /iihave /iithe /iiguts/i. Jean’s gaze faltered just a little.

    “Let’s talk about you instead,” Sarah said with a mocking half–smile, eyes brimming with icy malice. “Sneaking off to join some shady secret organization behind the Ginger family’s back, if they found bout/b, what do you think they’d do?”

    Jean pressed her lips together. That iwas /iia /ireal irisk/i.

    All bthese /bbyears/b, she’d gone to great lengths to keep her connection to the bAbyssal /bChoir a bsecret/bb. /bbShe /bdidnt want anyone to know.

    After all, it bwasn’t /bsomething that could be exined easily.

    Even now, she had no clue how the original Jean had gotten involved with the Abyssal Choir bin /bbthe /bfirst ce… or how she’d even joined.

    She didn’t have any of the original Jean’s memories.

    The whole thing was like a massive mystery–one she had never been able to solve..

    She’d asked both Jolene and Ludwig before, but neither could give her a definite answer.

    No one knew when the original Jean had entered the Abyssal Choir…

    Jean blinked slowly, her face devoid of emotion. “To be honest, I don’t really care what the Ginger family thinks. It’s not like I’m rted to them by blood. For all we know, I might leave the Ginger family one of these days. But you,”

    Her lips curled into a bold smile. “Don’t go throwing stones in a ss house. Sure, I joined the Abyssal Choir -but you joined a secret organization too, didn’t you? And by the looks of it, your status isn’t exactly low.

    She, at best, was just an unofficial member, loitering around doing nothing and staying out of any actual business. But Sarah was top–tier, leader–level.
