At the thought of this, the supervisor gathered up the courage to say, "House Leader, please be appeased. Do let him off this one time on account that Supervisor Chen had no idea about this."
The woman was enraged. "If anything happens to her, all of you will pay with your lives!"
All the supervisors went dead silent.
When the House Leader had first taken over the role for the first few years, she was never so unpredictable.
She had disappeared for a few years and when she returned one year seriously wounded, she turned unpredictable and often had mood swings.
However, she still did not bother much with the workings of the house of assassins.
Her presence became even less visible these few years and she rarely returned.
None of them had expected the House Leader, who had not returned for quite a long time, to lose such a big temper over one mission the house had accepted.
