Thea Shaw thought Adrian Anson wouldn't answer this question.
After a while, Adrian Anson sent over a subtle inquiry: [Is there a problem on your end?]
Thea Shaw stared at this choice of words and directly concluded that Adrian Anson must know something.
He had even heard about it; this kind of thing likely wasn't the first time it had happened, so Adrian Anson reflexively asked Thea Shaw if there was an issue.
Thea Shaw's Checker Talk: [I never expected you distinguished and upright sects with thick eyebrows and big eyes would do such things! I'm truly heartbroken! I thought we were all peers, all about fair competition, never did I expect that if you couldn't outdo me, you'd play dirty!]
Adrian Anson: [Don't make baseless accusations without evidence! What happened that you suspect us, The Aetherium Sect?]
With that previous remark as a setup, Adrian Anson's refutation carried little confidence.
Thea Shaw really didn't hide anything from him.
