Chapter 398 Jiang Qing's Appeal

• Following a prolonged silence, Lauren Krause finally spoke, but she did not directly address my question. Instead, she closed her eyes in distress, her perfectly white teeth clenched together as she expressed, "Why must there be conflict? Why must it result in a fight to the death? Can't everyone simply coexist in peace and harmony? Wouldn't it be better if everything was tranquil and serene?"
• Her words left me deeply puzzled. Setting down my teacup, I promptly inquired, "Who is engaged in this conflict? Is it Master Campbell and his concealed adversaries? Lauren Krause, you possess more knowledge than I do, please enlighten me with the truth."
• She still did not provide a direct response to my question, but circled back to our previous discussion, stating, "Yes, I did assist in framing you for Liang Quanren. I had my own motives for doing so! I needed to take action to demonstrate my loyalty, in order to gain complete trust from the other party. Only then could I delve deeper into the truth of the matter! You are the individual closest to Master Campbell, so eliminating you seemed like the most effective way for me to earn their trust."
