Chapter 552: The Illusory Crown

Selma Payne's POV:

I once thought that the Evaria Family would be extremely respectful toward this descendant who could help them reach the heavens in a single bound. At the very least, they would have to maintain superficial respect.

However, I completely overturned my previous views after a series of events.

The Evaria Family didn't like Jack Evaria. They only wanted to squeeze out every bit of his value to make use of him. I suspected that the Evaria Family really wanted Jack Evaria to replace my father or me.

First of all, regarding Layla's death, there was no doubt that it was Jack's doing. But was he the only one who did it? Didn't the Evaria Family know anything about this? I thought not only did they know, but they also added fuel to the fire and used Jack to complete this flawless assassination plan.
