"You're right. It's frustrating, but we have to hold our anger back for now. I believe our enemy doesn't have any precautions set in place. He'll definitely reveal himself soon!"

Selena finally calmed down after a while. How could she not control herself when Fane was able to control himself and drink the poison even after knowing that the water had been poisoned?

The only thing she could do was to hold it all in-for the sake of her brother and her parents so that they would not be blinded any further by this woman.

"Do we have any countermeasures? Or do we just wait like this?"

Selena could not help but say after thinking about it, "I really think we should hurry up and catch that b*tch while she's with the man."

Fane flashed a bitter smile. "I'm just worried that this man isn't in an intimate relationship with her. It'll be impossible for us to catch them on the same bed. What if the man just wanted to use Xena to give the poison to me? What if he had already given Xena some down payment earlier? She would have the money to buy all those clothes and our judgment would've been wrong!"

Selena also nodded. "You're right. If that were the case, my brother will have zero trust in you!"

Fane also frowned. Dealing with this entire scenario was harder than slaughtering enemies on the battlefield. He noticed that Xena had been buying new clothes and bags quite frequently. She dressed more seductively, as well. Both he and Selena had assumed that she was seeing a man on the side and that she had traded her body for money. They thought she was seeing two men at the same time. However, Xena poisoning him today caused Fane some uncertainty about his initial judgment. If the man had only given her money to administer poison, how was he going to explain it to Ben? "I really think we need to be super cautious about everything we do!"

The crease between Selena's brows deepened. She did not want to waste a single moment because having a woman like Xena right beside her was like being with a viper in a pit.

Today, she had given Fane the poison. In the future, she might give it to Ben, or her parents. For a woman as venomous as her,

they needed to reveal her true colors as soon as possible.

"Dear, do you have such little faith in your husband?"

Fane flashed her a bitter smile. "I've told the bodyguards at the gate a long time ago to keep tabs on her. If they see Xena walking out alone, without a bodyguard or Ben, they'll report it to me in secret," he said. "I've also secretly installed a bug and tracking device on her today."

"Seriously? You're amazing, dear!"

Selena was suddenly delighted when she heard that. She impulsively flung her arms around Fane's neck, giving him a peck on the cheek. "Now I know you've had a plan all along, dear."

"Of course. Xena's very cunning. It'll be difficult to unravel her schemes if we don't do some scheming of our own."

When Fane pressed a button on his side, he could hear everything she was doing.

"All right, Ben. It's getting late. Rest nicely a t home and wait for me. My friends have asked me out for karaoke." Xena's voice drifted.

Fane and Selena shared a glance when they heard this. Their hearts leaped in delight. Was Xena really going to head out alone? This was too much of a coincidence. They actually heard what they wanted to hear the moment they decided to eavesdrop on her.

Ben's voice rang out as well. "Bring me along, Xena. I'm a pretty good singer, too. I'm so bored at home. You never bring me out when you see your friends!"

Xena replied, "Why would you come along?

They won't be happy if you're with me.

We've already said that we wouldn't bring others to our meetings, and we wouldn't bring men along. Us girls are only able to completely relax when we're singing on our own!"
