Chapter 469 - The Throne (2/2)
”Why would we trust your words? The princess should face us herself in the first place! It's a disgrace that she is not showing herself before anyone!” one of the councils commanded after hearing Tyron's plan. None of them had ever met Raine in person at all.
That time, Ester entered the room and said, ”I vouch my life for this plan. Raine has her valid reasons for limiting her physical presence everywhere.”
She knew Raine well. Her niece could be stubborn all the time and her ways sometimes could be misunderstood largely by the people, but she trusted Raine, although Marcus was the one who raised and taught her.
”Isn't this enough? I represent the Yue clan at this point as the sole rightful heiress to lead the group.” Ester continued. She was also one of the rightful heirs to the throne.
”Marcus is still in a coma but would soon wake up according to his doctors. We are all aware of my brother's temperament… And he will not be happy by how his brother died like that.
Yun was the only one he trusted. We must ensure that peace prevails at the triad, so I agree to what princess Raine proposed. This is the best solution and we must make a decision at this moment now.” she added after a careful thought.
Everyone heaved a long sigh before they cast a vote among councils. In the end, princess Raine's plan was approved for peace and order amongst the clan and the civilians that got involved as well as Xander and his family.
Everyone inside the courtroom who witnessed everything signed a contract that should any details or information leak about anything that happened in that courtroom, it would be answerable by their life alone.
Ester then looked at Xander and said, ”I would love to pay you a visit and your family as well as soon as everything is settled.”
Xander smiled and nodded. He could tell the longing for a family's warmth in those eyes.
”Grandma… My home will always welcome you. I'm indebted to you as well for your great help in bringing justice while putting your life on the line.” Xander spoke with full of gratitude.
They managed to get all the evidence they needed because of Ester's help, which also included how Yun had stolen and shifted the corpses of his mother and Bernard's mother to Yue clan graveyard.
”That is nothing my grandson compared to all the hardship we both had experienced because of Yun's greed and tyranny.” Ester murmured with a grieved heart.
Xander sighed and added, ”Don't worry, grandma. We will soon find your grandson. Chad is a very capable man, and he always keeps his promise.”
Ester nodded while her face softened. She only hoped for peace as well… All she wanted now was to get united with her long lost grandson.
