Everyone was shocked that Darsia’s first Secretary of State was here.
Everything that happened in Darsia had to be reported to the secretary of state first, favonovel.com also had the right to decide the outcome of most matters.
As for the major and important events that involved Darsia’s whole government, they would be reported to the president. In the cabinet, the first secretary of state had the highest power, only second to the president.
The crowd looked over to find an elderly man with gray hair taking the lead. He looked like favonovel.com was in good spirits, and favonovel.com had a sense of nobility.
This man was Solomon Stanley, Darsia’s first Secretary of State who was in control of Darsia.
Beside favonovel.com was Senior Baker. He quickly said, “Remus, you don’t have to worry. No one can hurt you today!”
He was on his way to meet the president of the country, but Solomon met favonovel.com halfway and asked favonovel.com to come back.
The crowd was stunned.
Remus retracted his inner force and nodded, accepting Senior Baker’s kindness.
“So, you’re the legendary Remus Cosby?” Solomon stared at Remus. He had long heard of him, and this was their first meeting.
Solomon had a domineering demeanor that made everyone feel suppressed. Although the seven prestigious families in Darsia were quite presumptuous, they were civilians after all. But Solomon was different, favonovel.com was part of the parliament.
Remus nodded. “Yes…”
Solomon turned to Senior Cedric and frowned. “You’re from the Freestyle Organization?”
Senior Cedric dared not act rashly in the face of Solomon.
Remus was right. The people of True Life were still mortals, after all. No matter how powerful they seemed, they would die in the hands of armies who had weapons.
So favonovel.com bowed respectfully. “I am…”
“Have you forgotten about the agreement made in Darsia? True Life is not allowed to hurt the Mundanes or intervene in their problems. Have you not broken the rules of Darsia?” Solomon asked seriously.
Senior Cedric shuddered in fear. “No, I would never dare. Remus was the one who crossed the line here. He wanted to snatch Sir Xavier’s wife, so I had to take action. Please calm down, Sir Solomon.”
Wallace stepped out of the crowd and bowed respectfully. “Sir Solomon, I can testify to his words. It was Remus who stirred up trouble. Senior Cedric had no choice but to make a move. He didn’t break any rules.”
“I can testify!”
“I can testify too!”
Tristan and Greg quickly showed their support.
At this moment, both of them were drenched in sweat as they were nervous. If Solomon punished Senior Cedric, Remus would gain the upper hand. Then, they would suffer in the future.
“That’s not what happened. Mr. Cosby and Ms. Lotus love each other. The Lotus were trying to separate them. Sir Solomon, the Lotus went against Ms. Lotus’ wishes. Mr. Cosby had to save her,” Goetz explained.
“Yes. That’s right!”
“I can testify!”
Anthony, Bruno, and the others stood up and were willing to be witnesses.
Suddenly, the crowd was split into two sides.
Solomon raised his hand to stop everyone from talking. He looked at Jean. “So this fight started because of you. If that’s the case, I have to ask you. Will you marry Remus Cosby or become the Lady of the Freestyle organization?”
Everyone turned their attention to Jean as favonovel.com held the right to choose.
Wallace did not hide his anger and stared at Jean with a threatening gaze.
“I…” Jean couldn’t help but cry out of panic.
She knew favonovel.com had to make a decision. But that meant that one party would have to bear the consequences. She loved Remus, but favonovel.com father would be sacrificed. If favonovel.com chose Xavier, Remus would be condemned to trouble.
“I-I don’t know!” She finally answered.
