The b*dyguards were preparing to leave. Before they left, the leader of the b*dyguards seemed to have thought of something and turned back: “Miss Mag Evans, I advise you not to constantly mention Miss Xaviera wanting to kill you. When it gets dark, one is bound to encounter ghosts. Lies, when repeated many times, may come true. When you really die one day, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
He was genuinely giving advice, after all, if the elder brothers who dote on Miss Xaviera know what Mag Evans does to her, even death wouldn’t stop her from being whipped.
Only when Xaviera’s figure disappeared, did Mag Evans fall uncontrollably to the ground with her legs giving out. Her face was pale, and her whole b*dy was disheveled: “Who were those people…? How did my sister become like this? What is the relationship between my sister and those terrible men…?”
Moore Mamet’s eyes were dark and grim. That man called Xaviera “Miss” with affection and respect. Why

would Xaviera know such a difficult–to–deal–with man who even had a gun on him?
Over the years, Xaviera had always been by his side, and he was clear about her friends and surroundings. However, he had never met that man before.
Lily Ross was shivering: “Xaviera must have sold her b*dy; otherwise, why would so many people help her? Xaviera, the shameless woman! Disgusting, it’s too disgusting. I feel sick just thinking about her sleeping with those b*dyguards!”
Moore Mamet frowned but did not refute Lily’s words. A pretty girl who could be protected by those blood licking men, what could there be, other than b*dy
transactions?
Xaviera followed the leading b*dyguard to a terrace. She circled around him and asked curiously: “Albert, why did you come over so early?”
The b*dyguard laughed lightly: “When did you recognize me?”
“You called me Xaviera, who else could it be?” Xaviera

leaned on the railing, “You still haven’t answered, why did you come to Libanan so early? Even if it’s to help me, there’s no need to rush, right?”
“I received information that the big shot we’ve been looking for has recently appeared in Libanan. As you were asking me for help as well, I came over early. However, as soon as I arrived in Libanan, I lost the big
shot’s trail.”
Xaviera fell silent.
She had also heard about the big shot that Albert mentioned, and her elder brothers had been searching for that person for a long time. She had thought about helping, but she couldn’t find any trace of that person regardless of using the hacking skills of the Black Tide or other means. She guessed there were two reasons: one, the person had a huge influence, and two, the person was also an expert in hacking, so as a fellow hacker, she couldn’t detect his existence.
Not wanting to make Xaviera worry about these matters, Albert changed the subject: “Let’s not talk about that for now. Xaviera, I heard you got married?”
Xaviera: “…”

Her expression was somewhat stiff when she mentioned marriage. There was also an issue with her master and that big shot who seemed to have made a verbal marriage agreement. Over the years, the big shot hadn’t taken it seriously and neither had she, but her master had been dead serious, constantly saying that once the big shot returned, he would marry Xaviera off to him.
Marrying an unseen mysterious person was worse than marrying Caleb Mamet. At least she knew Caleb well, while she knew nothing about that big shot, only that he was a good friend of her master. Since her master was quite old, being friends with him… she guessed that big shot was probably old enough to be her grandfather.
“Forget it, Albert will definitely help you with the cover–up and prevent Master from learning about your marriage. Indeed, what kind of era is it now that they’re still arranging marriages? That big shot may be powerful, but he’s been elusive for years, unknown and mysterious. If you met someone who’s dissipated and frequented brothels all year round, what should we do about our Xaviera?”

Saying that, Albert chuckled again: “Moreover, I estimate that the big shot isn’t interested in the marriage agreement. If he really wanted to honor it, he would have come to find our Master long ago. Why would we have to go to such great lengths to find
him?”
Xaviera nodded: “Right, so the marriage agreement
doesn’t count!”
Outside the door, Caleb Mamet leaned lazily against the wall, hearing the conversation between Xaviera and Albert. He tugged at the corners of his mouth, thinking, not counting? How could it not count?
Albert came to Libanan for official business. After a short chat with Xaviera, he prepared to leave. Xaviera had long been used to her senior brothers‘ mysterious appearances and did not keep him any longer. After Albert left, she patted her buttocks and went back to

When her day’s classes ended, Xaviera was about to go home when she heard a commotion at the entrance of Libanan University with a crowd of people gathered
