“Mr. Chance, what's the matter with you?”
Theodore, who was standing beside Jared, could sense the subtle, albeit unmistakable, murderous aura off Jared and posed the question.
“Nothing!” Jared snapped and shook his head.
Theodore did not eggjared on, seeing as the man was reluctant to talk about it.
After some time, Mr. Sanders was still nowhere to be seen even after
Jermaine had arrived. In the end, Theodore and Jared could only get inside first.
The hall of the Department of Justice was fully occupied with formidable people. Some of them were conversing with each other, while some were just resting with their eyes closed.
Among the people, Jared had spotted some familiar faces. Blake Henckle the graverobber and Kenneth Carrail from Thunderstorm Sect were also there. However, Jared did not know whether they followed their families there, or they were there upon his invitation.
However, the Baileys and the Coopers were nowhere to be seen, whether it was Samuel or Sean. Jared reckoned that maybe they were deemed unqualified to be present.
After about half an hour later, the bustling hall quieted down. A middle-aged man made his way inside, followed by four men in uniforms.
The middle-aged man exuded an intimidating aura and no one dared to look directly into his eyes. Instead, everyone shot up from their seats upon catching sight of the man.
Meanwhile, Jared widened his eyes in shock when spotted the middle-aged man.
It was not that Jared did not recognize the man. Rather, Jared knew the four men in uniforms behind the man.
He met the four men during his first meeting with Rayleigh back at Jared. After Rayleigh saved him, the four men made their appearance, and Captain Xenos was one of them.
