This was something she could never understand.
How could people’s hearts become so cruel for no reason?
Margaery narrowed her eyes slightly, her fingers tightening

She hadn’t trained in internal energy, so her strength wasn’t great but the dark, sharp glint in her eyes made Redon texas it she were sitting on pins and needles.
She was convinced things were not so simple.
Keaton took a deep breath and asked Margaery, “If I tell you, will you let me go?”
She considered for a moment. The man who had just captured her possessed unfathomable martial skill. If he did ser release her voluntarily, she would have no chance of escaping.
Especially since, today, she had not brought any poison with her
Therefore, she hoped to trade the truth for her own survival.
“Go ahead and speak.”
Margaery straightened up, looked at her, and let out a cold snee
Keaton wanted to leave, but that was impossible.
Today, someone had to leave this room. If it was not her, then it could only be Keaton.
However, it would not hurt to hear what she could say
Keaton furrowed her brows deeply, clearly troubled.
If she spoke, she might not be able to leave.
first.
If she did not speak, she would have even less chance of leaving.
She had no other options left, and finally forced herself to speak “Twenty years ago, Raul brutally murdered a woman. He severed her limbs, tore out her tongue, and buried her in the basement of a warehouse…”
Those few words sounded as if spoken by a vengeful spirit.
Just hearing this made Margaery’s skin crawl.
Is this what my father, whom I have desperately tried to save, ha done?‘ she thought.
‘So Tessa came for revenge because of that woman?‘
Margaery’s heart trembled.
“Assuming what you say is true,” Margaery regained her composure and looked at her, “But he was the one who killed her. You came after me instead. Do you think I’m easy to bully?”
“Every injustice has its perpetrator, every debt its debtor!” she added.
Keaton could not answer this.

After a moment of silence, she finally said, “That woman was Tea’s mother. Raul killed her mother, leaving her in unbearable pain. Naturally,
essa wants to kill Raul’s daughter, he will also know unbearable pain.”
“After all, the Wallen family now has only one woman.”
Margaery understood. If her sett
were still alive, then the peon Tessa sought revenge on would be her mother.
‘But if my mother were still alive, could she still pretend to be the Wallen family’s daughter?
Margaery snorted but was still shaken by the truth spoken by Keaton.
Indeed, in this world, right and wrong, good and evil, ultimately come down to the cycle of cause and effect. No one could escape the wheel of karma.
The sins that Raul had committed ended up backfiring on her.
For a moment, she could not tell whether she was truly wronged or not.
After a pause, she finally spoke, “Perhaps she has reason to seek revenge, but I have never provoked anyone. Today you pint against me, so my plotting against you is also karmic retribution
She looked at Keaton, “If I am wrong today, I will naturally bear the consequences in the future. But I will not regret the choice I made today.”
In her previous life, she had already died once.
Even if the heavens were torn asunder, she did not believe she should pay such a price for Raul’s sins.
Margaery picked up the medicine on the table and handed it to Keaton. “Drink it.”
“What is this?” Keaton frowned, her expression extremely unpleasant. “Are you trying to poison me?”
“You’re right,” Margaery let out a laugh. “Soon, when you stand beside me, it will be impossible to tell who is who.”
“You used to poison others often. Now, tasting it yourself is also form of karmic cycle, isn’t it?”
Margaery sneered and handed the medicine bowl to Wayne.
“Solon, help her.”
It was the first time Wayne had seen her so ruthless. His gaze was somewhat complicated.
He strode forward, gripped Keaton’s jaw, and forced the entire bowl of medicine down.
Keaton struggled, but still swallowed half the bowl.
A moment later, she was unable to speak.
Her eyes widened in terror. She wanted to ask Margaery what sh intended, but could only make muttled sounds.
Immediately after, her body began to itch.
Then, she saw blisters appear on her hands one by one.
Gradually, they became densely packed.
She looked at herself, then at Margaery, on the verge of collapse
A truth was about to emerge.

Margaery told her directly, “Soon, the Wallen family will take you to exchange for Tessa
“Are you happy?”

Margaery’s quiet gaze fell upon Keaton’s face, her mind swirling with scenes of her tragic death in a previous life, and the triumphant smile on Tessa’s face.
This time, she hoped to witness it again.
She snorted coldly at Keaton, “You should be happy. After all, this is a trap you and Tessa set together. You made the meal, so you get to eat it yourself. It must taste the best.”
Keaton shook her head frantically, her eyes filled with terror, emitting meaningless whimpers
Now she finally understood why rumors had spread outside that Margaery had been poisoned, disfigured, and rendered
mute.
It was Margaery who deliberately let the news out.
All for this moment.
Now, Margaery had captured her, ruined her face, and turned her into a mute.
Then, the person who would soon be dragged out and dismembered…
Keaton could hardly imagine it, feeling as if she were completely buried by fear.
Margaery found her appearance ironic.
Some people were like this. They felt joy when tormenting others, but when it happened to themselves, they finally understood pain.
Keaton was such a person.
As for Raul…
Margaery was momentarily dazed. Even now, she found it hard to believe that the father she had lived with for more than a decade was such a cruel murderer.
She took a deep breath.
Not wanting to see Keaton any longer, she walked to the window and said to Amber, “Amber, help her change into that set of clothes and tidy her hair.”
“Understood.”
Amber was somewhat afraid.
But after surviving two assassination attempts, her courage had been tempered a little.
Wayne stepped forward to help, grabbed Keaton, and threw her to the partitioned room.
Keaton tried to struggle, but her acupoints had been struck, leaving her powerless and at Amber’s mercy.
Wayne left the room, standing at the doorway with his back to the inside.
Margaery turned to Wayne and asked, “Any news from the Walle family?”
“I didn’t get a chance to mention it earlier,” Wayne glanced outside, stepped forward, and said in a low voice, “Tessa is

planning to make a clean getaway. I heard the news last night.”
“In other words, if we go to the Icy Pool today, the Wallen familare very likely to learn the truth”
Margaery pondered his words, “The truth?”
What truth? she wondered.

Wayne’s expression grew complicated as he looked at her and s. “Tessa’s original plan was to wait until the Wallen family killed you, and then reveal to them that you are their biological daughter and that she came for revenge”
“At that time, who knows what kind of expression will be on the faces of the Wallen family
Margaery was somewhat dazed upon hearing this.
Things did not unfold this way in her previous life.
Back then. Tessa bullied her unilaterally.
When she died tragically at the Icy Pool. Tessa was preparing to marry Dominic. The Hadley family had already booked the wedding party, scheduled for three days later.
At that time. Tessa’s reputation was widespread, ranking just below Celeste as the second most distinguished lady der City.
But now, the situation was entirely different.
