Chapter 945

Wilbur smiled softly after a long while. He poured himself a cup of tea.

"Since when?"

Gertridge lowered her gaze and said, "Before I took cover in Sealake Island. They schemed to make me a spy around you back then so that I could provide intel for them. They said they won't hunt me down in return."

"Did you say yes?"

"Yes. You should know that the assassins won't allow betrayal. Any traitor would be hunted down until they die. I had no choice but to say yes."

"So why are you telling me this now?" Wilbur crossed his legs and looked at her.

She laughed wryly and replied, "To be honest, you have a greater chance of winning, so I confessed."

Wilbur was silent for a moment.

"Did they tell you clearly that they are going to assassinate me?"

"No, but they kept asking about you. Very often too, mind you. I feel like they were going to make a move soon," she replied.

The Twilight Blade behind her silently vanished.

Wilbur said, "Good. You made the right choice. I hope you can keep this up."

"Yes, sir."

"You may leave."
