Chapter 73: Chapter 73: BRIAR’S COUNTERMEASURES 2

Meanwhile, inside a certain dreamscape, Briar was chilling with the ancestor spiritualists. Her lips curled into a smirk as amusement was written all over her face.

Seeing her like that and recalling the mess she had just caused; the ancestors were regretting their choice. However, they couldn’t cry over spilt milk. Since they had picked this child, it was only right to forge ahead, nurture her and turn her into a spiritualist that they were never able to become.

She was probably the first spiritualist to be able to enter the dreamscape as she wanted.

"How could you use the dreamscape like that? Aren’t you afraid of being caught?"

Briar turned to look at the ancestor who had spoken and snorted, disdain written all over her face, and replied, "If I don’t make use of it. Do you want to see my brain fried just because of knowing a few things?" retorting without care.

The ancestor raised her hand as she pointed fumingly at her, "You.... You ...."

However, Briar acted as if she wasn’t seeing that and harrumphed, adding, "If I didn’t do that. Are you sure that the treatment wouldn’t have affected my knowledge of herbs and everything that you want me to be?"

"This ..... I think that the child is peaking the truth. We can’t let her be hurt for no reason. Besides, why let that selfish man destroy our hope?" another chimed.

Upon hearing that, a smile blossomed on her face, finding this ancestor favorable. Of course, she ignored the selfish part. Who wasn’t selfish?

Seeing that the statements made sense, the ancestor accepted begrudgingly but still asked, "Why pretend, though?" curious about the reason why did it.

Briar’s lips curled as a mischievous glint flickered in her eyes, replying, "Ancestors. If I want to be with Logan and give him peace of mind. To let him dedicate his all to me without fearing that one day I will let the secrets slip. This is the best choice.

The treatments were all successful. So, once I wake up, I would be like a blank paper when it comes to those. Even if someone uses those secrets in the future, it won’t be me who suffers. Everything was removed, so the surrounding suspicions would be lessened."

"But that doesn’t explain why you fabricated a few tales!"

Briar snorted when she heard that and looked at the ancestor who had spoken and asked, "Among all of you. Who has clean hands? If any of you didn’t kill anyone or committed any wrongdoing because of this job, then come and face me! We are all tainted. We do both good but also use the same hands to kill.

I told you before, that I will have his heart and his all without failure. And that means tarnishing that vixen’s last ounce of reputation, if possible. I won’t have my man carry thoughts of another woman while he is with me.

I want him to think of only me as the woman he could ever be with. Whenever he looks at the other women out there, he is reminded of the secrets of today. He would be cautious."

The ancestors shuddered at seeing how ruthless the successor was.

They were listening in when Briar was playing her game, toying with two grown-up adults. However, her words were correct. They were all tainted, but couldn’t avoid it.

Some come to them for breakthrough and good, while others come to seek means of destruction. Their job was to satisfy the customer and give them what they wanted.

As long as they get what they want, then whatever consequences the person who sought trouble faces, it wasn’t any of their business. After all, everyone knew well how there was always a price for every single thing sought by spiritualists.

Briar, this time, decided to use this moment very efficiently. It was more so after receiving a report from X. On the day she was discharged; she had her look into Anna. Anna wasn’t someone who gave up easily.

Knowing that she was kicked out of the country, she became suspicious and unsettled.

Having X look into the matter gave her some relief.

Although she wasn’t sure what Anna was up to, just knowing the people that she was meeting secretly was enough to make her conjure a plan.

She remembered clearly how Mammy Adonai warned her when she visited her. Trouble was coming for her and it would be so serious. In other words, she couldn’t escape it.

She didn’t know who was going to bring that trouble to her. But as long as it concerns Logan and the Meyers, it meant that it might be women-related.

She had dealt with a number of women who were after Logan for ten years secretly.

Since she couldn’t have him, why should she allow some vixen from nowhere to have him?

However, there were a few who kept their claws to themselves and kept their distance.

Now that Logan announced his marriage, she was afraid that those women might make their appearance.

She wasn’t well versed in some matters and didn’t have a strong backing except for Logan and his family. That meant that others could use that weakness and come up with one thousand ways to make her die.

She needed to be prepared.

And since there were a few suspects in mind, what better way to set a trap for them than instilling doubt in Logan’s mind?

With Simon acting as the best witness, it became foolproof.

No matter who would come out in the future, Logan wouldn’t nail her on the cross without looking into the matter.

Unless they use something out of her Pandora’s box. Now that would be vexing.

But how could they even know about that?

It would be impossible.

Anyway, whatever comes, she would be ready for it.

She just needed to make sure that she would have recuperated enough as well as captured the Meyers heart to the fullest. That way, even if she was the culprit, she would turn the tide and become the victim.

Since she embarked on the journey of being a white lotus, she was going to follow it until the very end.

After all, from the very second, she received her awakening; she knew that she was doomed.

Since she was doomed, why walk on the righteous path?
