Randy didn''t argue with Liza, knowing it was Bert''s trick tofort her.


    But everyone else there could see the truth.


    Fermin must have cracked under the pressure of growing up in the Eaton family and developed a second personality.


    Debra still felt something was off. The Eaton family had been keeping this whole thing under wraps. There had to be more to it.


    Erica muttered, "No wonder the media never reported anything about twins. Turns out Gand doesn''t even exist."


    Liza sighed, "I''ve told you everything I know. I just want to apologize on Fermin''s behalf. Debra, I don''t think he really wanted to kill you. He..."


    "He was just blinded by greed and desperate to find the treasure?" Randy chimed


    in.


    Liza hung her head. Given the influence of the Eaton family, they didn''t need any treasure. With the time and effort spent searching for it, they could''ve closed countless big deals.


    And yet, Fermin still went ahead with it.


    Debra concluded, "It doesn''t matter why he did it. Fermin was right about one thing. We''re all just looking out for our own interests. But now that he''s sided with Jeffrey, he is our enemy."


    Liza''s face turned pale, and she added, "In that case, you can''t stay here anymore. It''s not that we don''t see you as a friend, but having you here isn''t appropriate."


    Liza muttered anxiously, "I can talk to him. He''ll listen to me and stop going against you guys, I swear."


    Debra shook her head. "It''s not that simple. The moment Fermin pulled that trigger, he made his choice. I''ll have someone book you the flight ticket. This ce is too dangerous. You''ll be safe at home."


    "But..."


    "Randy, do me a favor and book her ticket."


    Randy pulled out his phone and started making the arrangements.


    Watching how distant everyone was acting toward her, Liza felt awful. She had never had a real friend growing up. She once thought Cathryn cared for her, but in the end, that was just another rtionship built on self-interest.


    The people here at the Potter


    Mansion were different. They


    weren''t together for profit, no matter


    how much they imed otherwise.


    They were real friends, bound by


    something deeper.


    For the first time in her life, Liza had received genuine friendships. She didn''t want to lose them.


    Back in her room, she felt worse when the maids packed her suitcase. She


    refused to leave like that. Debra had saved her life before. She decided to stand up and protect them.
