"Sis Wan, they're here," Marius said to me when he came in from the outside.
"Invite them in, then."
I heard Delia even before I saw her. "Just who are you people? Why did you bring me here?"
The door opened, and Delia was brought in by two men.
Seeing that it was me, Delia was furious. "You again? What are you trying to do?"
I took a sip of tea and looked at her calmly. "Please have some tea, Miss Owens."
"This is how you invite me?" She lowered her gaze at the two people behind her.
I signaled for them to go out, leaving only Delia and me in the room. There was also Marius.
She straightened out her clothes and walked before me haughtily before taking a seat. "Why are you looking for me?"
"What are you talking about? You sent people to follow Sis Wan. What are you trying to do?!"
Delia's expression changed. She probably did not think she would be found out so soon. Still, she was shameless as ever. "What? I don't know anything. Anyway, it’s all good."
"You little—"
"Enough." I glanced at Marius, and he shut up obediently.
Turning to look at Delia again, I was calm. "I know Nibel is the person behind you."
It was better to be open and honest than to hide it.
Delia froze for a moment, the tension visible on her face. She grabbed the hem of her clothes, pretending to be calm. "What?"
