As he finished speaking, Mason turned to look at Viola Thompson again. "I apologize," he addressed, "My student isn't very worldly. Please, Master J, don't hold it against her."
No one knew better than Mr. Mason the horrible power of the person standing before them.
She looked young and harmless, but was indeed ruthless and cunning.
Viola Thompson responded with a nonchalant smile, "It's normal for young people to be inexperienced. Don't let it trouble you, Mr. Mason."
How could an elderly person like herself stoop to the level of squabbling with the younger generation?
Mr. Mason then turned to Karina with a look of disappointnt in his eyes, "Karina?"
Karina was not yet recovered from her shock.
Mason faintly frowned. He had always considered Karina a gifted student, but her performance tonight was disappointing.
Who was Jue?
How on earth could Karina lose her composure to this extent!
Concerned that Karina's subsequent reactions might provoke Viola Thompson, Mr. Mason proposed, "Master J, shall we step aside? I have a question I would like to ask you."
"Very well." Viola Thompson nodded slightly, adjusting her pace to match Mr. Mason's.
Watching their receding figures, Seaton licked her dry lips, "Sis, is this...?"
"Is Viola Thompson really Master J?"
Nobody could understand the emotions Seaton was experiencing at that mont.
She had dressed up with the intention of attracting Master J's attention, hoping to make him fall at her feet.
But now.
Master J turned out to be Viola Thompson- soone she had always looked down upon.
What was this all about?
Seaton felt like a fool in that mont!
Perhaps, she shouldn't have co here tonight!
Karina was still in a daze, not really hearing anything. After a long ti, she finally managed to respond, her face was pallid as she glanced at the retreating figures of Viola Thompson and Mason.
Nobody in this world could force Mr. Mason.
Nor could they make Mr. Mason act in a play.
So.
Viola Thompson was indeed Master J.
She truly was.
At this thought, Karina began to shake subtly. She was covered in cold sweat and took two shaky steps backwards. Had Seaton not supported her in ti, she would have fallen to the ground.
"Sis, what's wrong?"
Karina took a deep breath and simply said, "Viola Thompson... is Master J."
Upon hearing this, Seaton's face changed, "No, that's impossible!"
How old was Viola Thompson?
Nineteen!
How could she possibly be Master J?
The thought of how she had intended to seduce Viola Thompson that evening made Seaton feel terribly disheartened. She stared at Karina, "Sis, tell you're joking, right?"
Karina furrowed her brows slightly.
She wished she was joking with Seaton.
Unfortunately.
She wasn't.
All of this was happening for real.
Karina realized they should not stay here any longer, and holding Seaton's hand she said, "Let's go."
Ten minutes later.
The two of them were outside the banquet hall.
In Capital City's October, the nights were getting colder.
The breeze was sobering.
Seaton then spoke up, "Sis, what on earth is going on?!"
Karina took a deep breath, "Viola Thompson is Master J. We need to terminate the Pearl Blood Plan imdiately."
"Terminate?" Seaton frowned.
Karina nodded.
Now she finally understood why the Garcia Family had suddenly abandoned their search for the Pearl Blood.
Little did they know.
They had long discovered Viola Thompson's real identity!
And Nako Garcia.
No wonder Nako Garcia was expelled from the Garcia Family and confined on a desolate island.
Thinking about this, Karina felt all her strength leaving her.
She was so close.
So close to becoming the second Nako Garcia!
If she had continued with the Pearl Blood Plan, the consequences would have been unthinkable!
Karina continued, "Viola Thompson is not soone we can afford to ss with."
Karina wasn't a fool.
If she continued to provoke Viola Thompson at this point, she would only be inviting trouble.
Seaton was frustrated.
"Sis! Can you live with it?"
What did Viola Thompson have anyway?
Karina turned to look at Seaton, her words slow and precise, "Even if we can't bear it, we must swallow our pride! If you don't want to bring disaster upon our father and our family, then don't provoke Viola Thompson. Even in the future, if we co across her, we need to be respectful."
Originally, Karina was skeptical about Viola Thompson being Suwen.
Now, she no longer harbored any doubts.
At this mont, Karina was imnsely relieved that she had postponed the Pearl Blood Plan. If she hadn't...
