Hearing Holly's question, Keira gave a slight smile in response.
Just as she was about to say sothing, Holly misunderstood her. "You don't know? It's okay, Jas must know. I'll call him over and ask!"
Having said that, Holly looked toward Jas, who was busy dealing with the aftermath, and called him over.
Jas held a high position within the Freeman Sect. In addition to being responsible for all of the sect's affairs, he also liaised with the Special Division. Hence, the two had already t after Holly arrived in Clance.
Jas approached and asked, "What's up?"
Holly went straight to the point. "You should know who the senior sister is, right?"
Jas was baffled for a mont. "Of course I do!"
Holly then said, "Then take us to et her and clarify today's matter of borrowing people from the Freeman Sect. After all, the senior sister is back, and she'll be the head of the Freeman Sect one day. If we don't clear things up, I'm afraid it might cause misunderstandings between you all."
Jas was perplexed.
He looked at Keira in confusion and then at Holly. "Are you joking with ?"
Holly was confused. "What?"
Jas looked again at Keira, "Isn't the senior sister right here with us? She's the one who used the Freeman Sect's people!"
Holly was even more baffled. "The senior sister is here?"
"Yes."
Jas pointed toward Keira and said, "Here she is! The Freeman Sect's senior sister, Keera Olsen."
Holly was dumbfounded.
She turned her head slowly, her eyes filled with disbelief as she looked at Keira. "Are you the Freeman Sect's senior sister?"
Keira nodded.
Holly still found it unbelievable. "But with your anemic constitution..."
Could a person who fainted so easily be the senior sister of the Freeman Sect?
Moreover, if Keira was the Freeman Sect's senior sister, why didn't she resist when Holly captured her back in Oceanion?
As Holly pondered, Jas laughed. "After the senior sister was registered in the Freeman Sect's Ancestral Hall, we updated a list, which I was planning to hand over to you. You didn't ntion it, and I was about to forget about it again."
He picked up his phone, did sothing on it, and then looked at Holly. "There, I sent it to your email. Make sure you update the Freeman Sect's list in your records."
Holly dumbfoundedly picked up her phone, and then she saw the file Jas had sent from the Freeman Sect's email. It read, "Freeman Sect's senior sister: Keera Olsen."
Holly stared at her phone a long ti before finally looking up at Keira. "I never would have thought that you'd be the senior sister! In that case, there's no issue with this matter. I'm off to interrogate Vera at the Special Division overnight. Are you coming with , or are you going back to the Olsen family first?"
Keira didn't hesitate. "I'll go back to the Olsen family to see my dad first."
Uncle Olsen was still in a coma with his life hanging by a thread; she certainly knew what was more urgent.
Holly nodded. "Okay."
Then she turned around to arrange for the Freeman Sect's people to leave with her.
Watching her composed deanor, Keira couldn't help but turn to Lewis. "Do you think she believes it? I feel like her reaction is a bit off."
Holly had said before while at the Special Division that she greatly admired the senior sister, and now that the senior sister was in her presence, Holly was oddly calm.
Lewis chuckled.
Keira also shook her head, no longer bothered by it, and soon they drove off, bringing the antidote for Seven Days that old Mr. Martin had given them back to the Olsen family.
Both of them went upstairs and entered Uncle Olsen's bedroom.
Lewis took out the antidote but suddenly stopped.
He looked at Keira.
Keira looked back at him.
The two exchanged glances, and Keira said, "Don't you feel that we got our hands on the antidote a little too easily?"
Lewis imdiately nodded. "I also feel sothing isn't right."
Even if it was given by old Mr. Martin, just a slight alteration in the contents of the antidote could turn it into a deadly poison in no ti.
Keira frowned, looking sowhat troubled at Uncle Olsen.
Should she feed him the antidote or not?
Lewis, too, fell silent for a while. "If Vera isn't Fox, then who else could be Fox?"
Keira's brows tightened further. "Susan adamantly insists Vera is Fox. It must be a trap set by Fox to mislead her, with the ultimate goal being to have us fight Vera while reaping the benefits of our strife."
She took a deep breath and looked at the antidote in Lewis's hand. "Do you rember my older brother's azoospermia?"
Lewis nodded. "What about it?"
Keira said, "At the ti, every hospital confird his condition. All those who conducted his examination went abroad for further studies and never returned. If, at that ti, the person targeting my brother was Fox, that ans she held a high position in the dical field to have all the doctors do her bidding. dicine and poison are inherently one and the sa..."
Lewis realized sothing. "You suspect that this poison was made by Fox?"
"Exactly."
Keira took another deep breath. "My deep ties to the Olsen family are because of my father. If the antidote I brought back causes my father's untily death, do you think my brothers would let off the hook?"
Lewis paused upon hearing this, then looked down. "That's killing two birds with one stone!"
Keira nodded. "All of these could just be my speculations. Perhaps this antidote is authentic..."
Lewis said, "There are still four days left until the expiration of Seven Days. Why not wait a bit longer?"
After taking the first dose of poison, ingesting the antidote within seven days can neutralize the first dose with no significant damage to one's health.
Therefore, there indeed was no urgent need to give it to Uncle Olsen.
Keira placed the dicine in a close-fitting spot. "I'm going to the Special Division."
Lewis knew what she thought and said, "I'll go with you."
They quickly arrived at the Special Division, and as soon as they entered, they saw Holly with a look of surprise. "What are you doing here? Is your father alright?"
Keira nodded. "Yes, has Vera confessed yet?"
"Not yet."
Holly led the two to see Vera.
Keira lowered her gaze and exchanged a look with Lewis. They put on a solemn look before pushing the door open and entering the interrogation room!
Hearing the door open, Vera looked up at them imdiately. Upon seeing their anxious expressions, she burst into laughter. "Look at you two. Did you give the antidote to Uncle Olsen? Hahaha... With Seven Days, taking the wrong antidote results in imdiate death! Keira, you didn't see that coming, did you?"
