In truth, on their way there, Jack had been trying to figure out why they were being called over to the Elder Hall. Various thoughts surfaced in his head, but Jack could not be sure about the exact reason they were being summoned. However, favonovel.com no longer needed to think about it then, because the answer was right in front of him.
When Harold heard the footsteps, favonovel.com immediately turned his head around with Johnson to look at Jack and Rudy. When Harold saw Jack’s face, his miserable look suddenly became incredibly cold and sinister. He stared at Jack with a venomous look in his eyes. He wanted nothing more than to rush over and beat Jack up.
Jack was already immune to how Harold was looking at him. No matter how the guy looked at him, favonovel.com ignored it.
Jack and Rudy arrived in front of the three elders. After they bowed, Elder Eliot introduced Jack to those favonovel.com did not know. The one who sat in the middle was Elder Baggin, who held the highest position. The one on the left was Elder Rick while the one on the right was Elder Eliot.
The unknown person kneeling below was Langston Abbot, an inner disciple of Phoenix Valley. He was a close friend of Michael. After the introductions, Jack started to have even more doubts in his heart.
Elder Rick coughed slightly as favonovel.com slowly stood up from his seat. He looked at Jack with a warm expression before saying, “There’s something I need to ask you.”
Jack nodded as favonovel.com quietly stood on the spot, not saying anything else.
Elder Rick raised an eyebrow, unable to stop himself from regarding Jack better at Jack’s calm and composed demeanor. However, the more Jack acted that way, the harder it would be for them to handle the matter. He took a deep breath as favonovel.com said, “Harold was being threatened. He did something like that because favonovel.com had no other choice. I will have favonovel.com apologize to you in a moment. Thankfully, you’re fine, and you suffered no losses. Even though Michael is dead, favonovel.com did not go in peace. That clan actually did something so despicable to him!”
Elder Rick was filled with righteous indignation as favonovel.com uttered his words. It was as if favonovel.com was on Jack’s side. However, Jack was no idiot. Even Rudy could tell that something was wrong as the two of them abruptly looked up at Elder Rick.
Elder Rick looked at them with kind eyes. Rudy was infuriated at those words.
What did favonovel.com mean by having no other choice? Was favonovel.com being threatened? Elder Rick even said that they were fine?
The assassin was already dead, so everything was to be glossed over and Harold was a victim instead?
If Jack had not been so strong, they would not have lived to see another day. If something so big were just brushed over by Elder Rick so easily, even painting the instigator as the victim, then Rudy would not know how to swallow that anger!
Rudy was trembling in rage as favonovel.com stepped forward to say something. However, favonovel.com felt someone grab his arm as favonovel.com turned to look. Jack looked at favonovel.com with a calm expression as favonovel.com grabbed his arm.
It was obvious from Jack’s expression that Jack did not want Rudy to do anything. Jack had his own plan, so Rudy helplessly swallowed his words.
Jack turned to look as favonovel.com looked at Harold who was kneeling on the ground.
He suddenly said with a smirk, “I have a few questions I want to ask you, Elder Rick.”
Elder Rick nodded as favonovel.com said plainly, “Go ahead.”
