Chapter 1208

Emerald's furious voice echoed behind Nyla, but she didn't even flinch. She quickened her pace and disappeared down the corridor.

The once-cheerful atmosphere at the dining table instantly turned tense.

Brian and Delia glanced at Emerald's dark expression and didn't dare say a word. They respected and feared her in equal measure. Whenever Emerald was displeased, they instinctively tread carefully, never daring to step out of line.
