An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Chapter 897

Brittany dashed forward urgently and implored, “Master! Your internal injuries haven’t properly healed yet, so you mustn’t push yourself!”

“Traitor!”

Edith’s face flushed with anger and humiliation, and she swiftly struck Nikki across the cheek, berating, “If it hadn’t been for that wretched scroll you handed me, driving me to madness, I wouldn’t be in this state!”

“No, it wasn’t me…”

Nikki shielded her face, shaking her head frantically.

“Don’t you dare come up with excuses!”

Edith’s voice grew sharp, “Let me ask you, why does that lad possess the Jade Girl Scripture? Did you secretly give it to him? You’re a traitor!”

“No… I didn’t.”

Nikki vehemently denied it.

“Absolutely, Nikki! You handed the master the cursed scroll but presented the genuine treasure to this foul man. You’re lower than a dog!”

“I believed in your loyalty, yet you’ve revealed your heartlessness through this betrayal of our master!”

“Don’t pretend any longer, your hypocrisy is sickening!”

At this juncture, every disciple of the Jade Girl Palace erupted in angry condemnation.
