Daphne admitted that Jeremiah had sent her to attend to Xavier. However, she didn't provide Yvette with all the details. Yvette felt her heart go cold. She hadn't expected Jeremiah to resort to such tactics. Keeping her word, she released Daphne.

Daphne left the basement in a disheveled state, and as soon as she was outside, she booked a ticket straight out of Tirion. She knew that if she didn't leave now, both Tristan and Jeremiah wouldn't spare her.

Xavier was aware that Yvette had let Daphne go but didn't pursue the matter. After all, someone like Daphne posed no real threat to him.

If it hadn't been for Jeremiah and the Lumber family conspiring against him, she wouldn't have been able to get close to him in the first place.

Yvette shared the same opinion-Daphne's only talent was hurting others with her words. Someone like her would eventually meet someone who wouldn't hesitate to retaliate, so there was no need to dirty their own hands or risk criminal charges. When Yvette went outside, where snow was falling heavily, Xavier asked her, "Did you find out everything?"
