“A chance? How?” Elena perked up instantly. With disaster looming for both their families, who else could save
them?
“The Spanners may be powerful, but they don’t have absolute control. Also, the Moseys are still the most powerful
among the four ancient houses.”
Eleanor said seriously, “Don’t forget that Dustin killed Scott. Even if the Spanners back him up, the Moseys won’t
just let him get away with it.
“That is why we can work with the Moseys to turn the tables on Dustin. We won’t only protect ourselves that way,
but we can also exact revenge. It’ll be a win-win situation!”
“You’re right, that’s a great idea!” Elena lit up. Why hadn’t she thought of it earlier?
Despite pressure from the Spanners, there might still be a chance for them with the Moseys’ support.

phone and was about to make the call when Eleanor stopped her.
“Wait! Calling Dahlia may not help. Although she’s Sir Mosey’s god- daughter, she doesn’t hold as much influence as
Scarlet.”
“If we don’t call Dahlia, then who should we ask for help from?” Elena was puzzled.
“The best person to seek help from is the Veros Warrior, Anders Mosey!”
Eleanor rationalized. “Ever since Anders returned to the Moseys mansion, the chess game has changed. Those who
used to be loyal to Dahlia had switched sides to Anders. Scott is a prime example.
“I also heard that Dustin killed Scott right in front of Anders today. His bold move was a direct challenge to Anders’
authority.
“When had the renowned Veros Warrior ever suffered such humiliation? I’m sure he hates him to the core now!
“It’ll definitely be a big accomplishment if we perform well by helping him capture Dustin. Our problem with the
Spanners’ will also be resolved together!”
Elena nodded in agreement. “You’re absolutely right. You’re definitely better at seeing the bigger picture.”
It can’t be denied that Dahlia’s status had taken a fall since Anders’ return. Of course, the main reason was that
Anders had a high-ranking position and commanded the military.
His accomplishments were comparable to that of Scarlet’s, perhaps even better. Only an influential person like him
could save them from danger.
“Don’t get too excited just yet. Since we’re not acquainted with Anders, he certainly won’t help us for free. We’ll
need to prove our value, “Eleanor said.
“Value? What kind of value?” Elena was taken aback and looked at her curiously.
“Eleanor, you’re not suggesting we offer ourselves up that way, are you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What nonsense are you spouting?” Eleanor glared at her.
“Did you think a woman’s charm would sway someone like the Veros Warrior?” Even if she was willing to make
advances, Anders might not even give her a second look.
Numerous noblewomen, including those on the prestigious Beauty Ranking, have attempted to seduce him daily,
but none succeeded. To become a God of War, he must have extraordinary self-control.
“If we’re not offering ourselves, what else of value can we offer?” Elena was puzzled.
“First of all, the Welchs and Forrests are prominent aristocratic families with abundant resources. If Anders is willing
to help through this difficult situation, we’ll agree to become the Moseys’ vassals.
“While we might lose out on a substantial amount of benefits, it’ll help us gain a powerful ally,” Eleanor explained.
“Secondly, we know about Dustin’s weaknesses and secrets. By using this information, we can effectively help
Anders remove that troublemaker. That is where our value lies!” Eleanor explained confidently.
“That makes sense.” Elena nodded in understanding. She said, “Let’s not waste time. We should go and look for him
now!”
“But your injury “Eleanor hesitated.
