Chapter 1186
At that time, Sheila could not be bothered to argue with them. When she saw Severin and Nancy shaking hands, she knew Severin had settled it.
After a while, Severin and Nancy came back to where the others were.
Nancy looked at Elaine and the elders and informed them. “Ladies, Severin is now our grand-elder and he’ll be staying with us. Since Sheila is his wife, she can stay with us even though Sheila is not our member.”
“But Hall Master, he’s a man! I don’t think it’s appropriate for him to stay with us!”
That left the Grand Elder feeling speechless. Before Nancy talked to Severin, she was firm that she would not appoint and accept Severin as grand-elder. What did Severin say to change her mind?
Nancy explained, “The rule set by the founder only states that we can only accept female members. But the rule did not state that we can’t appoint a man as our grand-elder. I’ve made up my mind. Hey, you three should greet our new grand-elder now!”
“Congratulations, grand-elder.”
Despite feeling speechless, Elaine and the elders did not have a choice and cupped their hands to greet Severin.
“Haha. Thank you. We’re on the same team now. If you need any help, feel free to come find me,” Severin chuckled.
Nancy smiled, “Grand-elder. Come with me. I’ll arrange a place for you and your wife to stay. I’ll introduce you to everyone tomorrow morning.”
“Okay.”
Severin nodded. Together with Sheila, they walked with Nancy toward a villa.
When they left, the remaining three people were still shocked and confused.
“That’s weird. Nancy has appointed him as grand-elder and she’s showing him around and arranging a place for them to stay personally.”
The Second Elder frowned and looked confused. “Shouldn’t she ask either of us or someone else to do that? Does she need to do it on her own?”
