Female Novel
Chapter 1232
Over there, Avery hesitated before taking action. He decided to consult Neera first. "Do you have any plans forStella? If you do, I can hand her over to you."
After a moment of consideration, Neera declined, "No matter what happens, Stella's fate is not my concern. Shehas committed countless wrongdoings, and whatever consequences she faces, she deserves them."
She understood Avery's intention. He was checking if she wanted to spare Stella's life.
However, while Neera was kind, she was not a saint. Stella, always causing trouble, has repeatedly attempted tomurder us, almost costing us our lives. Naturally, I won't suddenly become benevolent and forgive such a wickedperson.
Seeing Neera's response, Avery didn't waste any more time. He signaled to an expert from the Cox familystanding behind Neera.
The expert understood and swiftly appeared before Stella. He mercilessly grabbed her neck and twisted itabruptly.
Stella didn't even have time to react. Her pleas for mercy were cut short as her eyes widened, and she took her lastbreath.
Neera was taken aback by the scene, but she felt no sympathy. Stella had brought this upon herself. With hermalicious intentions, she was practically asking for death. She had no one to blame but herself.
Everyone present was stunned by the sight.
Who would have thought that the head of a family would become lifeless so quickly?
In an instant, all the families that had previously collaborated with the Jennings family and had taken actionagainst the Gordon family felt a sense of impending danger.
No one dared to speak or even take a breath, fearing that they would get involved and suffer the same fate asStella.
Meanwhile, their fear of the Cox family grew deeper.
It was evident to everyone present how the situation had changed. Even Matthew, the vice president, had to showrespect to the Cox family. This demonstrated the Cox family's unwavering status!
Therefore, who would be foolish enough to provoke them?
A silence as profound as death hung in the air in the vast square.
Just then, Colin spoke in a gentle tone, but his words were cold and ruthless. "This woman from the Jenningsfamily has no restraint. She deserves punishment. Not only has she offended the Gordon and Cox families, butalso Lordsworth Estate. Keeping such a family in the Bartitsu Guild will only bring shame upon us. They mighteven put the entire Bartitsu Guild at a disadvantage one day. Keeping them will only cause trouble. It's better toerase their existence from today. Mr. Lozano, I'm doing this for the good of the Bartitsu Guild and for thepeaceful coexistence of Lordsworth Estate and Bartitsu Guild in the future. You understand the bigger picture, soyou wouldn't object, would you?"
As soon as those words were spoken, the scene erupted into uproar once again.
They thought that once Stella was dealt with, the matter would be resolved.
Who would have thought that Lordsworth Estate would take it so seriously? They not only wanted Stella's life,but also the complete eradication of the Jennings family! novelbin
That was no different from condemning the entire household to perish alongside her.
Matthew hadn't expected Colin to make such a request. His face darkened, and he furrowed his brows in concernas he tried to dissuade him.
Although the Jennings family's status in the Bartitsu Guild was not high, they were still a force to be reckonedwith. Their disappearance would indeed be a loss for the guild.
Naturally, he was unwilling to comply.
"Mr. Wiley, don't you think this is going too far? Stella was the main culprit, and she has already paid the pricewith her life. Shouldn't this debt be considered settled? Why must Lordsworth Estate be so overbearing? Won'tthis harm the harmony between both parties?"
Colin stared at him, his previous gentleness fading away. He gave a cold laugh. "Mr. Lozano's considerations aresomewhat inappropriate. If we want to avoid harming the harmony between us, the only solution is to erase theJennings family. Don't forget that Stella represents the Jennings family, and the entire Jennings family wasinvolved in this. Where is the logic in only punishing the main culprit and not the accomplices?"
As soon as those words were spoken, all the families who had once followed the Jennings family in theirwrongdoings bowed their heads in unison, sweating profusely.
Colin continued, "If we delve into this matter, it's not just an issue concerning the Jennings family alone. All
those families who rallied behind Stella should be punished. Mr. Lozano, I refrained from pursuing theresponsibilities of the other families out of respect for you. However, the Jennings family cannot escape this. Mydemand is not excessive, is it?" Then, he changed the subject. "Mr. Lozano, I advise you to carefully consider thepros and cons. Offending Lordsworth Estate for the sake of an insignificant clan like the Jennings family is not awise move. If you insist on protecting the Jennings family today, we might have a problem. I won't beat aroundthe bush. Once I return, I will immediately mobilize all members of Ventus. If any unrest is triggered, it will beyour responsibility, Mr. Lozano!"
