Fletcher suddenly interjected. "By the way, I suppose she must have met the Holy Lady since she went to the Marquis's estate, right?"

Megyn paused, then nodded. "Yes, my lord. Lady Raisa even reminisced with the Holy Lady for a while, but the two became visibly agitated after & tur words. I was standing some distance away and could only faintly hear that it was related to the lake incident from years ago."

Fletcher raised an eyebrow, his expression softening slightly.

He certainly knew "the lake incident from years ago" and understood how it had turned Isabelle and Eliza-now Raisa and Eliza-from best friends into strangers, or even enemies.

Fletcher had once suspected that the relationship between Raisa and Eliza might not be as strained as it appeared.

After all, Raisa had once pleaded with him, her father, on Eliza's behalf.

At that time, Raisa had claimed it was merely because she didn't want to owe Eliza anything.

'But was that truly the only reason?' thought Fletcher, narrowing his eyes slightly. "Could my dear daughter secretly have joined forces with Eliza long ago? And as for the reason, well, isn't it obvious? To break free from my control."

Fletcher vaguely sensed something was off. Unfortunately, his suspicions led him astray.

There was never any possibility of an alliance between Raisa and Eliza.

Raisa knew it perfectly well.

Eliza didn't trust Raisa.

And Raisa had her hidden agenda, which she couldn't let Eliza discover.

Therefore, Raisa had never considered teaming up with Eliza from the beginning, nor relying on her to break free from the Henderson family or Fletcher's

control.

It was something Raisa could accomplish on her own, without the help of others.

For now, her continued association with the Henderson family was purely a matter of convenience.
