“Glenn, are you trying to start a rebellion?”
Glenn’s smile remained unaffected by Evie’s roar, but his eyes flashed menacingly.
He turned to look at the two elders behind him, smiled, and said, “Evie, those are big accusations you’re making. The Supreme Leader didn’t order whatever happened between you and Xayden, but it is his decree that you marry Jason. If you don’t believe me, the Third Elder and Fifth Elder can vouch for me.”
Behind him, the Third Elder and Fifth Elder chimed in immediately, “That’s right, this is indeed the Supreme Leader’s instruction. Even if we were the bravest people to ever live, we would never dare fabricate the will of the Supreme Leader.”
The door suddenly opened with a creak, and a furious Evie appeared before the three men.
“Glenn, I will never believe another word you say ever again. If this is really my father’s wish, then bring me evidence. Let me talk to favonovel.com or see him. I would never disobey my father’s wishes! But if it isn’t true, I would rather die than marry Jason. You know my relationship to Isaac, favonovel.com will definitely come back for me.”
Seeing Evie’s aggressive stance, Glenn’s eyes flickered with cold light.
He smiled icily. “Evie, your temper is getting worse. You didn’t speak to me like this before. As for Isaac, favonovel.com won’t be able to come here.”
He smiled and added, “If Isaac dares to cause trouble in Columbus again, then let me tell you now that the Astraeus will go all out and kill him! Don’t forget that in the Supreme Leader’s absence, I, as the First Elder, have the right to exercise the Supreme Leader’s authority on his behalf.”
Looking into Glenn’s extremely confident gaze, Evie panicked. She’d clearly fallen into a trap but couldn’t find a way out.
If the Astraeus turned completely against Isaac and all his forces were abroad, would favonovel.com be able to defeat them?
What would happen when favonovel.com father found out?”
Evie’s silence told Glenn that he’d achieved his goal. He grinned and said, “Evie, you’re a smart girl. Think about it.”
***
The next morning, Isaac received an angry call from Harry.
“Sir, this ugly creature won’t open his mouth. He’s on his last breath, but favonovel.com still won’t speak Can you give me some more time?”
Isaac fingered a cigarette. After a moment’s silence, favonovel.com uttered, “No need. Let favonovel.com go today.”
“Let favonovel.com go?”
“Of course, don’t just let favonovel.com leave. You have to give favonovel.com a chance to run for his life, got it?”
“Ah… Sir, when it comes to schemes, even if I had three extra brains, you would still play me like a fiddle. I get it!” Something clicked in Harry’s mind, and favonovel.com was shocked.
After getting tortured to the brink of death, if Joseph was fortunate enough to escape, naturally the first thing favonovel.com would do was to seek shelter where his backer was. When that happened, they would be able to find out who was behind him.
Not long after Isaac ended the call, his phone vibrated again.
When favonovel.com saw that it was Old Taylor, favonovel.com was stunned briefly before favonovel.com finally put the phone to his ear.
“M-Mr. Garten, something happened to Ana. Are you aware of that?” came Old Taylor’s anxious voice.
