Cherished By Seven Sisters novel Chapter 568

Chapter 568 Guilt 

The Mapleton family needed to maintain a low profile for a while to avoid causing discontent among others

However, this fan would only work if the Mapleton family had done Elduin a favor

Yet Hazel couldn’t recall when the Mapleton family had helped Elduin

Could it have been Father

With a sense of confusion, Hazel followed Endre to the Martial Arts Alliance’s dungeon

Pascal had been detained here for several days now

May I have a moment alone with my father?Hazel asked

Endre nodded. Of course, you can. Tomorrow, I will have your father released from the dungeon and arrange for him to have a comfortable living environment. Once this storm has passed, he may return to the Mapleton residence.” 

With Elduin’s support, Endre couldn’t dare to further trouble Pascal. However, releasing Pascal so readily wasn’t appropriate either, as it might give the impression of favoritism within the Martial Arts Alliance

Though he was indeed acting out of selfinterest

For now, the best course of action was to arrange for Pascal to stay in a secluded residence and release him later with other excuses

For Endre, this was something he was quite skilled at

Subsequently, Endre dismissed the lawexecutor in charge of guarding the dungeon. Then, he left, leaving only Pascal and Hazel behind

Pascal was dressed in a prison uniform and looked even more aged and weary

Upon seeing Hazel, Pascal sighed regretfully and said, I’m sorry, Hazel, it’s because of me that you’re in this predicament.” 

Hazel shook her head and comforted, Dad, I’m fine, and you will be too. General Elduin has already spoken up for us. You’ll be out soon.”

General Elduin?” 

Pascal was taken aback

Then, Hazel recounted what Endre had told her. However, Pascal furrowed his brows even deeper after listening

Has the Mapleton family ever shown kindness to General Elduin

Just like Hazel, Pascal also had no recollection of such an event. They had never had any dealings with the Sky Devourer Palace before. He wondered where this supposed favor came from

Upon seeing Pascal’s confusion, Hazel became even more perplexed. After a moment of thought, she speculated, Could it be because of Emrys?” 

Emrys was the Empyrean Lord. If Elduin knew about Emrysrelationship with the Mapleton family, it would make sense for him to assist the Mapleton family

However, Hazel doubted that Emrys had revealed this information to the Sky Devourer Palace, as Emrys had only recently discovered his own identity

Moreover, one point worth noting was that if Elduin knew about the relationship between Emrys and the Mapleton family, when he came to find Endre, he could have stated that the Empyrean Lord was Pascal’s grandson rather than claiming he was indebted to the Mapleton family

This indicated that Elduin was hiding something

After some contemplation, an audacious thought suddenly surfaced in Hazel’s mind. She said, Dad, I feel like Emrys might still be alive. He must be planning something.” 

When she uttered those words, she was taken aback

When the Empyrean Lord descended with the sinking island, it was a spectacle witnessed by all, and the subsequent events seemed to confirm the demise of the Empyrean Lord

If Hazel’s assumption proved true, it would undoubtedly raise a monumental banner, one that was capable of toppling the power structures of all martial artists worldwide

Upon hearing this, Pascal’s body shuddered violently. However, he quickly turned and said, Hazel, you should go back. I’m doing well here. There’s no need for me to move anywhere else.”
