Watching the two big spenders leave, Ophelia finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she didn't know why Zerev was so fixated on her brown sugar, she was certain the crisis had been averted.
Meanwhile, Moye and Zerev returned to Ten Thousand Beasts City.
"Young Master, we can now be certain that the little female's sugar didn't come from the Holy Capital," Moye said.
Zerev pondered. "Where do you think the mastermind could be hiding it?" He had thought they finally had a lead, only for it to end in another dead end. However, he was actually relieved to confirm it wasn't Ophelia. He quite liked the little female; it would be a shame if she turned out to be their enemy.
"Young Master, how did the interrogation of that male named Saqi go?" Moye asked.
