Chapter 669: Stephanie's Confession

Tina sat up straight, "Tell me, what's going on with you and Five Poisons? Who else is there besides Grace?" Stephanie hadn't expected Tina to know about Grace, realizing she had no choice but to tell the truth today or she wouldn't be able to leave. She knelt down with a thump, "Jared, Tina, I didn't mean to betray you, I had my reasons!"

Tina lazily glanced at her, signaling Stephanie to continue.

"My brother was captured by Five Poisons, I had no choice, I did it so Eric could survive, they've already killed my mom, I couldn't disobey them!" Tina had anticipated such a situation. The only ones who could threaten Stephanie were Leah and Eric. Even if she wanted to ignore the lives of her own mother and brother, she had to consider her own.

"What else did they promise you?" Stephanie wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, "The master said that if I could turn Lysander to her side, I could revive the Lyon family, become the head of the Lyon family, reclaim all of the Lyon family's assets, and also avenge my family... so I..."

Tina almost laughed. Even if she reclaimed all of the Lyon family's assets, what then? Stephanie, of this nature, capable of reviving the Lyon family? It wasn't that Tina underestimated her, Stephanie simply lacked the capability. "The master you mentioned, is it Five Poisons?" Stephanie shook her head, "I don't know who you are talking about. I only know the master looks exactly like Grace, they captured both of us initially, Grace resisted at first, but the master controlled her with a silver needle causing incontinence and vomiting blood until Grace finally called her master."

"My mom was also killed by her then, skinned alive, I was so scared, and Eric was taken too, that's why I agreed to work for her."

It seemed clear it was indeed Five Poisons.
