Hearing Holly’s question, Keira gave a slight smile in response.
Just as she was about to say something, Holly misunderstood her. “You don’t know? It’s okay, James must know. I’ll call him over and
ask!“.
Having said that, Holly looked toward James, who was busy dealing with the aftermath, and called him over.
James held a high position within the Freeman Sect. In addition to being responsible for all of the sect’s affairs, he also liaised with the Special Division. Hence, the two had already met after Holly
arrived in Clance.
James approached and asked, “What’s up?”
Holly went straight to the point. “You should know who the senior sister is, right?”
James was baffled for a moment. “Of course I do!”
Holly then said, “Then take us to meet her and clarify today’s matter of borrowing people from the Freeman Sect. After all, the senior sister is back, and she’ll be the head of the Freeman Sect one day. If we don’t clear things up, I’m afraid it might cause misunderstandings between you all.”
James was perplexed.
He looked at Keira in confusion and then at Holly. “Are you joking with me?”
Holly was confused. “What?”

James looked again at Keira, “Isn’t the senior sister right here with
us? She’s the one who used the Freeman Sect’s people!”
Holly was even more baffled. “The senior sister is here?”
“Yes.”
James pointed toward Keira and said, “Here she is! The Freeman
Sect’s senior sister, Keera Olsen.”
Holly was dumbfounded.
She turned her head slowly, her eyes filled with disbelief as she looked at Keira. “Are you the Freeman Sect’s senior sister?”
Keira nodded.
Holly still found it unbelievable. “But with your anemic
constitution…”
Could a person who fainted so easily be the senior sister of the
Freeman Sect?
Moreover, if Keira was the Freeman Sect’s senior sister, why didn’t she resist when Holly captured her back in Oceanion?
As Holly pondered, James laughed. “After the senior sister was registered in the Freeman Sect’s Ancestral Hall, we updated a list, which I was planning to hand over to you. You didn’t mention it, and I was about to forget about it again.”
He picked up his phone, did something on it, and then looked at Holly. “There, I sent it to your email. Make sure you update the Freeman Sect’s list in your records”
Holly dumbfoundedly picked up her phone, and then she saw the file James had sent from the Freeman Sect’s email.

It read, “Freeman Sect’s senior sister: Keera Olsen”
Holly stared at her phone a long time before finally looking up at Keira. “I never would have thought that you’d be the senior sister! In that case, there’s no issue with this matter. I’m off to interrogate Vera at the Special Division overnight. Are you coming with me, or are you going back to the Olsen family first?”
Keira didn’t hesitate. “I’ll go back to the Olsen family to see my dad first.”
Uncle Olsen was still in a coma with his life hanging by a thread; she certainly knew what was more urgent.
Holly nodded. “Okay.”
Then she turned around to arrange for the Freeman Sect’s people
to leave with her.
Watching her composed demeanor, Keira couldn’t help but turn to Lewis. “Do you think she believes it? I feel like her reaction is a bit
off.”
Holly had said before while at the Special Division that she greatly admired the senior sister, and now that the senior sister was in her presence, Holly was oddly calm.
Lewis chuckled.
Keira also shook her head, no longer bothered by it, and soon they drove off, bringing the antidote for Seven Days that old Mr. Martin had given them back to the Olsen family.
Both of them went upstairs and entered Uncle Olsen’s bedroom.
Lewis took out the antidote but suddenly stopped.

He looked at Keira.
Keira looked back at him.
The two exchanged glances, and Keira said, “Don’t you feel that we got our hands on the antidote a little too easily?”
Lewis immediately nodded. “I also feel something isn’t right.”
Even if it was given by old Mr. Martin, just a slight alteration in the contents of the antidote could turn it into a deadly poison in no
time.
Keira frowned, looking somewhat troubled at Uncle Olsen.
Should she feed him the antidote or not?
Lewis, too, fell silent for a while. “If Vera isn’t Fox, then who else
could be Fox?”
Keira’s brows tightened further. “Susan adamantly insists Vera is Fox. It must be a trap set by Fox to mislead her, with the ultimate goal being to have us fight Vera while reaping the benefits of our strife.”
She took a deep breath and looked at the antidote in Lewis’s hand. “Do you remember my older brother’s azoospermia?”
Lewis nodded. “What about it?”
Keira said, “At the time, every hospital confirmed his condition. All those who conducted his examination went abroad for further studies and never returned. If, at that time, the person targeting my brother was Fox, that means she held a high position in the medical field to have all the doctors do her bidding. Medicine and poison are inherently one and the same…”

Lewis realized something. “You suspect that this poison was made by Fox?”
“Exactly.”

Keira took another deep breath. “My deep ties to the Olsen family are because of my father. If the antidote I brought back causes my father’s untimely death, do you think my brothers would let me off
the hook?”
