"In other words, there's no way to stop them, right? Jeslyn asked. 1

"There is. That is, if you can get THE PEACE to intervene."

"How?"

"They aren't aware of what is going on. Even if they are, they wouldn't think it's that deep." Nancy explained.

"Why haven't you informed them ever since?" Jeslyn couldn't understand why the woman, even though she had evidence of the crime these people were committing, couldn't bring them to book. "You think they'd believe me?" She chuckled. "I'm also on their list. They'd think I exposed your father because I hate him, or because I want to be the only one standing" she rolled her eyes.

"So, what do we do?"

"You're a public figure, you should think of something. Probably, raise awareness or something... your father is not around at the moment, so no one can kill your voice." The two talked for a while before Jeslyn bid her goodnight.

While the two had been discussing, a great battle was going on in some parts of the City. The SIN raided some hideouts in the City, which included parties, bars, clubs, hotels and so on, and killed. more than hundred Ladies under Ani.

By the time Ani found out, Death and two other men were already at Delight hotels. The lady tried to escape but was caught at the door and taken away.

However, on their way, a white van rammed into their car, causing it to somersault. A moment after the commotion died down, four ladies came out of the van and hurried to the car to drag Ani out.

After they successfully took the unconscious Ani out of the car, one of the ladies destroyed the fuel tank. Just before she lit the lighter, another tried to stop her but she didn't pay heed and threw threw the lighter into the fuel tank.

However, before the car exploded, Death, who woke up to see what the girls were doing to his car, immediately fired a couple of shots at Ani, hopping he didn't miss.

"Noooo!"

"Boom!"

The car exploded, killing Death and the two other guys.

Ani was laid on the floor as the ladies mourned their leader's death.

"I told you not to aggravate them! If you hadn't hit the car and set it ablaze, they wouldn't have killed

her!"

"Even if I didn't, they wouldn't have let her go."

"Stop it, you two! This is no time for apportioning blames. Our Lady is dead and it's thanks to our recklessness... However, Doyenne must not know about this. We took actions without informing her,

so if she finds out, we're certainly going to be dead for sure. Have I made myself clear?!" The prettiest lady among them with red hair, yelled at the two ladies who were about to get into a fight. "Yes!" The girls chorused.

"But older sister, what would we tell Doyenne?"

"We will tell her that The SIN killed Our lady and has waged war against us," said the red-haired lady.

A few hours later..

In a dimly lit hall, a young and beautiful woman whom no one would have thought to be old enough to be someone's great-grandmother, sat on a throne, staring at the four ladies kneeling in front of her with a corpse.

After a while, she asked, “You said Nancy did this?" Her seductive low voice sounded in the dark hall with tens of ladies, all looking, beautiful, young, and sexy, standing erect on both sides of the hall, with a pathway in the middle.

"Yes, Doyenne!" The red-haired lady, with the other three ladies, replied while kneeling before the throne.

"What caused Nancy to suddenly want to wage war against me?" she sexily raised her red painted nails and blew on them. "Nancy wouldn't start a fight without a proper reason," she continued. "Doyenne, we have no idea what happened. She sent her people to raid our hideout and kill our lady. Before we got to our lady's rescue, she was already dead. We couldn't let the perpetrators go, so we chased them down with a van and successfully brushed him out of the way. That was when we realized he was one of Nancy's most trusted men, Death-"

"Death?! You killed Death?!" someone yelled from the audience.

Diana and Jacy smiled faintly. Killing Death is the same as cutting Nancy's left hand. Now that they've dug their grave, it would be fun to watch them battle to death with the stubborn and ruthless Nancy! However, the two were too quick to be excited because the next minute, Doyenne shattered their dreams.

"Hm, the deed has been done. Nancy had been finding ways to attack us for a long time, so she probably used a clone to make us feel guilty. Lady Diana and Lady Jacy, you two are the core members of the sisterhood and has control over the largest division here. You should lead your faction and go make peace with Nancy. If she beats the drum of war, attack immediately. I will be watching from the mirror. If you need help, I'll send you some."

Diana and Jacy were stunned at first but later, they knelt to accept her command. Why did they think that this woman wouldn't use them as a shield for the organization?

Ever since Jacy failed to kill Alex and rather got shot, Doyenne had been acting funny and making things difficult for their faction. She had suppressed them so much that the once prosperous faction with a respectable Analyser, became the joke of the organization. More than half of the members deserted them and joined other factions. Now, this witch dared to say they have the largest members?! All their faction has left is just twenty of them, plus Jacy and Diana. Sending them to war

with the ruthless Nancy, doesn't that mean that this witch wants to eradicate them!

One of the ladies who found it absurd from Diana's faction knelt down and spoke. "Doyenne, our faction only has twenty members. We are the lowest of all-"

"You are defying me?" Doyenne asked. Before the lady could protest, floating black smoke came out from a side room and wrapped the lady up.

Diana, Jacy and the seventeen others from the same faction all knelt down to beg the Doyenne to have mercy but it was too late, or rather she paid dead ears as the dark smoke drained the life out of the lady. "Anyone else has something to say?
