The thought brought a glimr of cunning to Hannah Sutton's eyes.
Steven Ram appeared noble and aloof to the outside world.
Yet to her, he was nothing more than a sycophantic dog.
One that did not even rit the sycophantic title.
For her, Steven Ram could even betray his own Master.
Hannah suppressed a smug smile and turned to look at Steven. "Senior Brother, sotis I do feel guilty about our Master. After all, she was our Master... But when I saw her shining bright, I felt such envy! I desperately wanted to be like her. I even had my father beg her to accept as her disciple... But she just didn't care about , and I truly hated her for it!"
Tears welled up in Hannah's eyes. "Senior brother, I'm sorry, it's my fault that your relationship with Master turned out this way. If it weren't for , you and..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Steven cut her off. "No, Hannah! This incident has nothing to do with you. It's all on ! You really shouldn't take on any of this guilt."
Hannah remained unblemished.
He was the one who had done wrong.
He was the one who had betrayed his Master!
He should be the one to face the consequences.
It was all him!
He was okay with his hands being stained with blood. He would not let the spotless Hannah also beco tainted.
Hannah continued: "But if it weren't for , you wouldn't have done any of this!"
"Hannah, don't think that way," Steven replied. "I did all of this so you could be happy, so you could get what you want, not so that you could carry such ntal burdens!"
His intentions were solely for Hannah's happiness.
To be honest, Steven had hesitated a lot before committing the act.
Regardless of everything, Suwen was his Master.
All his achievents were because of Suwen.
But...
Compared to Hannah, Suwen's importance weighed a little lighter.
He could repay Suwen's kindness in the next life.
But he couldn't owe Hannah her life.
After much internal struggle, Steven began his preparations.
Even though Suwen usually imrsed herself in various experints, she was always alert.
Plus, being a doctor, she would have noticed any tampering with her als.
After ponderous thought, Steven eventually decided to act on the plane.
It was convenient.
He knew people in an airline company.
"Hannah, as long as you lead a happy life, I'm willing to do anything," he said.
Even if it ant dying.
Hannah looked at this ever-loyal sycophant, her eyes filled with gratitude. "Senior Brother, I'm so lucky to have you."
Steven patted Hannah's head. "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Having Hannah was his blessing.
Hannah sighed. "I hope Master can rest in peace. After all, it was for my sake that you betrayed her."
After speaking, Hannah continued, "Since Master passed away, I've erected a spiritual plaque for her in the temple. I believe she has already reincarnated successfully."
"Hannah, I'm sure Master is comforted by your actions."
Steven never thought that Hannah was in the wrong.
Because all these things were his doing. Even though Hannah harbored ill-feelings towards Master, she never really took any action.
The one who acted against Master was him.
So, if Master's spirit is resentful, she would not bla Hannah.
Master should bla him.
While Hannah harbored hatred towards Suwen, she was a conscientious person.
If Hannah had no conscience, she would not have continued Suwen's Sight Restorer Plan.
After all, the Sight Restorer Plan was Suwen's greatest wish.
If Hannah had no conscience, she would not have waited till he acted against Suwen.
Given Hannah's family background and abilities, it would not have been difficult for her to act against Suwen.
But Hannah didn't.
Steven failed to notice the fleeting shimr in Hannah's eyes.
In her view.
Steven was unbearably foolish.
Just then, an assistant approached. "Miss Sutton, soone outside the lab is looking for you."
"Who is it?" Hannah raised her head to ask.
"Soone from your household," the assistant replied.
Upon hearing this, Hannah squinted slightly.
She was the Sutton Family's only heir and her father's late-born daughter, hence she was cherished by the family.
When Hannah idolized Suwen, she ntioned it offhand to her father. Playing on old bonds, her father convinced Suwen to accept Hannah as her disciple.
