Keira sneered, “Are you really going to tell me the truth?”

Erin popped another pistachio into her mouth and replied, “It’s not a big deal. Most of us from the South family already know it. What difference does it make if I tell you?”

Keira tensed her jaw. “What’s the catch?”

“The catch is that you publicly denounce old Mr. Sims and claim you were charmed by him.”

Erin said with a grin, tossing a pistachio shell aside.

Keira fixed her gaze on Erin. “Did my sister really dedicate herself to you?”

Erin looked surprised. “Yes, she did. What about it?”

Keira scoffed. “Your actions suggest you owe my sister loyalty, not the other way around. With everyone misunderstanding me, isn’t that exactly what you want? Why push me to make choices that benefit me?”

She kept her gaze on Erin after saying that.

However, Erin remained unflappable.

She munched on another pistachio. “Do you really think I’m helping you?”

“That’s right. In every situation—Gary’s suicide, Nara’s going home, or the fire that almost killed Mary—the only person who died was that indecisive mama’s boy. It always looked like my friends were getting hurt, and you were coming out on top. But in reality, the outcomes are different: Gary’s mother tried to kill Nara, but Austin stepped in and resolved their sibling issues. Mary seemed doomed in the fire, but my older brother saved him, clearing up their misunderstandings.”

Keira stared at Erin. “Once could be a coincidence, just me being lucky. But what about the second, the third time? Like now, when everyone is turning against me—the Horton family and the five major families of Clance are all resisting me. Yet, you’re pushing me to make the right choice, even tempting me with the South family’s secrets. Are you really not helping me?”

Erin blinked, her expression innocent. “Wow, you’re making a lot of sense. But I am helping you!”

Keira was taken aback. Erin continued, “Since you’ve already submitted to me, I have to help you. Helping you take down the five great families of Clance also helps me. You’re in a strong position, but personal emotions are clouding your judgment. I’m just guiding you back on track and teaching you the first lesson of the South family.”

She chewed on a pistachio, her eyes fixed on Keira. “Sometimes, if you want to win, sacrifices are necessary. We can’t let emotions dictate our decisions. In the South family, we learn from a young age to suppress our feelings and become rational beings. Do you know why?”

Keira shook her head.

Erin sneered. “Because the South family believes that only by viewing things unemotionally can they lead us to a prosperous future. If AI could reproduce, they’d even develop robots to lead us.”

Erin’s demeanor became serious. “So, we’re taught to suppress our emotions early on. Many people stay single or choose practical partners because they’re emotionless. If we don’t go through emotional desensitization, we face surgery.”

A shiver ran through Keira. “What kind of surgery?”

“A surgery to remove the part of the brain responsible for emotions. Afterward, a person won’t feel anything at all.”

Erin chuckled softly, then popped another pistachio into her mouth. “Without this training, you wouldn’t pass even the basic tests, and in the final round, you’d be eliminated right away!”

Keira frowned. “Do you really agree with the South family’s methods?”

Erin was silent.

Keira pressed on. “Do you truly have no emotions? Your feelings for Charles—aren’t they in love?”

Erin gave a slight smile. “What do you think?” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Keira’s eyes narrowed. Something was off!

Without missing a beat, Keira stepped closer to Erin and pressed her hand to Erin’s head. “Let me see if you’ve had that brain surgery.”

Erin quickly stepped back, evading Keira’s grasp. “I’m not showing you.”

But Keira grabbed Erin by the shoulder. Erin seemed weak compared to Vera, and Keira easily controlled her. She swiftly untied Erin’s bun to check the back of her head.
