Chương 269: Chapter 269 Settling Score

Minerva believed she could conceal the fact that her actions led to the sole heiress of the Avery taking her own life. She thought she could silently regret what she had done and pray for Hera's soul once guilt overtook her. Naively, she hoped the Averys would view Hera's death as an unfortunate accident unrelated to her.

When her actions were exposed and the Old Master Avery began to take action, Minerva realized she was in serious trouble, potentially implicating her own family as well.

As events unfolded and Hera tragically passed away, Minerva encountered Alice and underwent a profound transformation. However, it was too late for her to make amends for her mistakes.

Due to stress and regret, Minerva confided in Alice. By this point in the novel, Alice had already developed a positive rapport with the male leads, particularly Rafael, who admired her for influencing his sister's positive transformation.
