Luke wanted to say something, but Kate interrupted him. "Just shut up, will you? Before you try to sow discord, find out who you're dealing with, okay?"

After that, she looked at James, "How could I have been so blind to have known such a brainless fool?"

James patted her shoulder. "Just be smarter in the future."

Furious, Luke asked, "What are you talking about? Kate, has James deceived you?"

Kate twitched the corner of her mouth. "Come here, let me introduce you to someone. This is Keira Olsen. She's James's cousin and Uncle Olsen's biological daughter!"

Upon hearing that, Luke was stunned, and he looked at Kate incredulously, "What did you say?"

Kate scoffed. "I said, she's James's cousin!"

Luke looked blankly at Keira and then back at James.

James tilted his head, pointing to Keira. "Can't you see? We look so much alike!"

Luke didn't know what to say.

One had a tanned and ruddy face, while the other was slender and delicate; how could they possibly look alike?!

However...

Luke continued. "Even if that's the case, does that mean the Freeman Sect is occupied with James' private affairs? He hasn't even taken over the Freeman Sect yet, and he is treating it like his own personal clan. The Freeman Sect can't meddle in the affairs of the other four major families. Even if James were to marry into another family, he couldn't use the Freeman Sect to help the Olsen family with their business!"

He turned to Kate. "Don't be fooled by him!"

Kate twitched the corner of her mouth again, "You don't give up until you're at wit's end. Prick up your ears, and I'll spell it out for you! Keera is …"

She pointed at Keira and was about to speak.

Luke followed Kate's finger, looking at Keira.

His pupils began to shrink.

But the next moment, he heard Keira interrupt Kate. "That's correct. I'm also an Inner Sect Disciple of the Freeman sect, and that means I hold a position within the Special Division. Be it my presence here, the interrogation of a criminal, or the Freeman Sect's action last night, all of it is justified and legitimate!"

Keira stepped forward, shielding Holly. She then looked at Luke and Brian. "Gentlemen, do you have any other objections?"

Luke was startled. "You're an Inner Sect Disciple? Why haven't I heard about it?"

Keira lowered her gaze. "I was recently promoted from the Outer Sect to the Inner Sect. Does the Freeman Sect have to report every single personnel change to you first?"

She addressed Brian. "The Freeman Sect and the Special Division aren't in the same ranking system, right? If I remember correctly, we're on equal footing, and we have no obligation to report to you!"

The Freeman Sect could inform the Special Division about its personnel changes, but there was no obligation, and the notice was only to facilitate cooperation between the two. Thus, such a requirement existed.

If it weren't for the sake of collaboration, the Freeman Sect wouldn't even need to report to the Special Division.

As the Freeman Sect was an integral part of the Special Division, Brian, wishing for a smooth transition and control of the Special Division, had to maintain a good relationship with the Freeman Sect.

Therefore, upon hearing this, he immediately waved his hand with a smile. "How could that be possible? Miss Olsen is joking, of course. This was all a misunderstanding. I'll make Luke apologize to everyone right now!"

After that, he gave Luke a stern look.

Although Luke was reluctant, he still took a deep breath and said begrudgingly, "Sorry, it was my fault, but you shouldn't have snatched people secretly, making it seem like we're thieves..."

Brian immediately glared at him and said, "Alright, let's put this matter to rest. Mr. Sims was just taken away, and the Special Division is also swamped with work. I have some things to handle, so I'll take my leave."

Having said that, he dragged Luke away.

Keira paid him no mind.

After they had left, Kate and James looked at Keira, puzzled, "Keera, why didn't you reveal your identity as the senior sister just now?"

Keira was about to explain when Holly said, "The senior sister's identity is too prestigious; how could it be revealed so easily? Alright, don't talk too much; she has her reasons."

Kate and James were both simple-minded individuals, so they immediately nodded in agreement. "Okay, then we'll get back to our business."

Once the two had left, Keira turned to Holly. "I'm not suitable to reveal my identity at the moment."

Vera had just said that Fox could interfere with the Special Division, which meant inside the Special Division, there was a hidden ally for Fox. Moreover, the data in old Mr. Sims's room couldn't have been acquired by an outsider, so she must find out who this hidden ally was.

She refrained from revealing her identity because the senior sister's status was too special. If she put it out there, Fox would still have other ways to respond. So, she would keep her identity as her trump card and see what Fox was up to.

With that in mind, she looked at Holly again.

Holly whispered, "I understand. Your sister, Keera, was the senior sister of the Freeman Sect. You've taken her place but haven't learned her martial arts. Once your identity is revealed, it'll be easy for others to see through you."

Keira was dumbfounded.

She looked at Holly, completely baffled.

No wonder Holly showed no surprise when she was told that Keira was the senior sister. All along, Holly had thought Keera was the real senior sister.

Keira was at once amused and speechless. She wanted to explain, but unexpectedly, Luke came back, standing right in front of them.

Luke's eyes were now filled with a ruthless gleam as he sized up Keira. "Miss Olsen, I was shortsighted just now, not realizing that you are already an Inner Sect Disciple of the Freeman Sect. For many years, I've wanted to ask for guidance from the Freeman Sect. Why don't you enlighten me with some martial arts?"

Luke thought, "This cousin of James must have relied on James's status to enter the Freeman Sect." He had been humiliated and definitely wanted to get it back from her!

Keira's eyes lit up when she heard the request. Did someone actually invite a beating?

She rubbed her hands eagerly. "Just a friendly spar?"

Luke's gaze hardened. "Yeah, just a friendly spar. But if we accidentally hurt each other in the process, we wouldn't mind, right?"

Keira was about to agree when Holly suddenly rushed forward/ "Luke, enough is enough!"

Luke sneered. "Holly, why are you so worked up? I'm just sparring a little with Miss Olsen. She's an Inner Sect Disciple of the Freeman Sect. She must be a good martial arts practitioner, right?"

Holly found herself at a loss for words. "With so much happening at the Special Division today, we're not in the mood to spar with you!"

Luke laughed. "Now that the situation is in the hands of the higher-ups there's nothing we can do but wait for news. Why can't we spar? Or are you saying... Miss Olsen doesn't dare to spar?"

Holly looked anxiously at Keira. "How could she not dare? It's just that I feel there's no need... Stop causing trouble here!"

"How am I causing trouble? There is a precedent for mutual learning between the Special Division and the Freeman Sect. I'm just asking Miss Olsen for some guidance. What's wrong with that?"

Holly was about to say more, but Keira patted her shoulder. "Don't worry."
