SWNOVELS Chapter 1232
Chapter 1232
Over there, Avery hesitated before taking action. He decided to consult Neera first. “Do you have any plans for Stella? 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. She has 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 to murder us,
almost costing us our lives. Naturally, I won’t suddenly become benevolent and forgive such a wicked person.
Seeing Neera’s response, Avery didn’t waste any more time. He signaled to an expert from the Cox family standing behind
Neera.
The expert understood and swiftly appeared before Stella. He mercilessly grabbed her neck and twisted it abruptly.
Stella didn’t even have time to react. Her pleas for mercy were cut short as her eyes widened, and she took her last breath.
Neera was taken aback by the scene, but she felt no sympathy. Stella had brought this upon herself. With her malicious
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 action against 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 as Stella.
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 show respect 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 Jennings family has no
restraint. She deserves punishment. Not only has she offended the Gordon and Cox families, but also Lordsworth Estate.
Keeping such a family in the Bartitsu Guild will only bring shame upon us. They might even put the entire Bartitsu Guild at a
disadvantage one day. Keeping them will only cause trouble. It’s better to erase their existence from today. Mr. Lozano, I’m doing
this for the good of the Bartitsu Guild and for the peaceful coexistence of Lordsworth Estate and Bartitsu Guild in the future. You
understand the bigger picture, so you 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!
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 concern as 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 reckoned with. 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 price with her life.
Shouldn’t this debt be considered settled? Why must Lordsworth Estate be so overbearing? Won’t this harm the harmony
between both parties?”
Colin stared at him, his previous gentleness fading away. He gave a cold laugh. “Mr. Lozano’s considerations are somewhat
inappropriate. If we want to avoid harming the harmony between us, the only solution is to erase the Jennings family. Don’t forget
that Stella represents the Jennings family, and the entire Jennings family was involved 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 their wrongdoings 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 the responsibilities of the other families out of
respect for you. However, the Jennings family cannot escape this. My demand is not excessive, is it?” Then, he changed the
subject. “Mr. Lozano, I advise you to carefully consider the pros and cons. Offending Lordsworth Estate for the sake of an
insignificant clan like the Jennings family is not a wise move. If you insist on protecting the Jennings family today, we might have
a problem. I won’t beat around the bush. Once I return, I will/immediately mobilize all members of Ventus. If any unrest is
triggered, it will be your responsibility, Mr. Lozano!”
