Chapter 118
Whitney was completely focused on her computer, her fingers dancing over the keyboard as she finalized details for her newly established guild. She had long dreamed of creating a space where she could operate freely, without the restrictions imposed by others. Now, with the Emberflame Guild posted on the Scarlet Phantom website, she felt an exhilarating sense of accomplishment.

With one important task completed, Whitney’s thoughts shifted to another pressing matter: Remillia’s past. The situation had become increasingly slow, and she couldn’t allow herself to rely on her lazy uncle to handle things. It was time to take matters into her own hands.
As she pondered on her next steps, her smartwatch buzzed insistently. The familiar alert flashed across the screen: Incoming Call from Sir Ivan. Thinking it was probably something trivial – a quick chat or an update on the guild program – she answered without hesitation.
"Sir Ivan, is there a problem?" Whitney asked, her voice laced with a hint of concern.
{Ummm, Miss Whitney this is about Remillia.} He hesitated for a while before letting it all out. {It looks like Kian messaged Remillia on his own. Kian is saying he didn’t mean it that way, but Remillia is saying she’s quitting the program because of him although she didn’t say the person’s name but I know that she’s pertaining to Kian....}
Her head throbbed in frustration. Just when she thought she could focus on her guild and get things rolling, another problem appeared.
