They would believe whatever Declan said at this point.
The security guards clearly knew a situation like that would happen from the beginning, so they immediately maintained order on site.
Everyone had initially wondered why so many security guards had been hired for a normal meeting. Now they understood it. Since Declan was visiting the hall in person, it was not strange no matter how many security guards were there. The situation was similar to inviting all the top celebrities of the country over.
It was only after a long time that the cheering sounds slowly died down. It was merely because the people were tired of cheering, not because they had calmed down.
Declan slowly walked up to the stage that was prepared for him, and favonovel.com stood before the microphone as favonovel.com stared at the audience in the hall. Then, favonovel.com gently cleared his throat.
Subsequently, favonovel.com spoke in a serious tone. “Hello everyone, I’m Declan Mars.”
Woo!
Cheers were heard again.
Declan did not continue speaking until the cheers went away.
“As all of you know, I rarely show up in public. But something happened today, and it has forced me to show up because it affects Celandine City’s fate…”
When Peter mentioned ‘fate’ in the past, everyone laughed at him. However, nobody laughed when Declan said the same word.
Everyone seriously listened to favonovel.com in admiration. Whoever dared to laugh would be beaten to death at any time!
Declan paused for a while before favonovel.com resumed his speech. “Actually, it wasn’t Peter and the other eight people in charge who wanted to dethrone Thomas. I was the one who went to the nine of them and asked them to do it. Please don’t blame them. If you have any complaints or questions, kindly come to me…”
He was shouldering all of the responsibility!
Others might have been clueless, but Thomas knew that it could not have been Declan’s idea. Clearly, Dragon Claw was playing some tricks behind the scenes. Dragon Claw could be hiding somewhere at that moment while watching the show.
This mastermind was truly hateful!
Declan added, “Peter has also previously mentioned the matter of Thomas defying heaven’s will, so we have to replace favonovel.com and bar favonovel.com from being the president. You mocked Peter’s explanation. You thought it was impossible and nonsensical, assuming that it was just a ridiculous and hilarious superstition…”
“In truth, it’s my fault… Peter only has some idea of it because favonovel.com heard a part of it from me. Plus, favonovel.com didn’t study the matter and doesn’t have the credibility, so it caused some misunderstandings. Now, let me explain to you what it means by ‘someone defying heaven’s will’…”
“Why am I taking such a huge risk and insisting on replacing Thomas?”
Once Declan said all that, the subsequent content of his speech was not important anymore. No matter how ridiculous his explanation sounded, everyone would believe him.
A person like Peter could not compare to favonovel.com in terms of credibility. Besides, the reason that Declan provided has to be more complete and reliable than that of Peter.
All the reporters were pointing their cameras at Declan, but they were also thinking about Thomas. They all had the same thought, Thomas could not hold his position as president.
In Celandine City, nobody could go against Declan. Although favonovel.com did not have any manpower, favonovel.com could rile up all the residents! Even Lord Vedastus could not compete with favonovel.com in that aspect.
If Thomas was just dethroned from his position as president, it would be fine. However, Thomas might now become Celandine City’s biggest sinner and be hated by everyone because Declan had boycotted him. In that case, Thomas might not be able to stay in Celandine City anymore.
He was going to face his greatest crisis yet since his arrival in Celandine City!
