Chapter 73

"To… stop her?" Mai noticed something off with Mrs. Woods's words just now. She smiled at Mai, but her smile didn't reach her eyes. 

Her eyes were filled with silent fury, like a snake ready to attack if someone dared to provoke her. 

"How will you stop her, Ma'am?" Mai asked. 

Kate's smile grew deeper, but her eyes grew colder as she stared at Mai with interest.

"Mai, have you ever done something nefarious to someone before?"

"N—Not that I can think of, Ma'am," Mai replied nervously. Somehow, Mrs. Woods suddenly got the same aura that Mr. Grant had, they seemed like the perfect match in Mai's mind right now. 

The aura would pressure people to look down and obey everything they said or else they would get punished.

Mai was so scared when she met with Mr. Henry Grant for the first time because his aura made it feel like she was about to get executed even though she did nothing wrong.
