Medical Genius Unspeakable Marriage (Matthew Larson) novel Chapter 3060

Despite his fury, Gadel kept his composure.

As he took a deep breath, he fought to control his anger and slowly unclenched his fists.

He glanced at the muscular aide standing behind Toby and sneered.

"Toby, I need a watchdog for my estate. Your aide looks strong. Why not let me take him?"

"You..."

Toby instantly understood the mockery hidden in Gadel’s words. His sneer transformed into fury.

However, he instead let out a loud peal of laughter. "Well, well, well!"

He had been so focused on suppressing Garrett that he ignored Gadel, especially since he disliked Gadel's sinister nature.

This allowed Gadel to grow stronger in comfort and in secrecy.

At the thought of how Gadel had hidden his growth, Toby felt enraged.

He had been played for a fool.

"Gadel, you’ve grown. Once lustful and idle, you now dare to talk back to me.

"Now, you want my subordinate.

"Are you planning to fight for something more important soon?"

The implied threat to the throne was clear to everyone present.

Gadel wickedly grinned. "People have to grow up, don’t they?

"Don’t worry, brother. I reward my aides for their loyalty.

"Soon, I will tear the murderer to pieces."

His words dripped with venom as veins bulged on his forehead.

He wanted to slap Toby, but that meant he would fall into Toby’s trap.

The tension in the air left the guards trembling with fear.

King Gawain I sat with a stern expression on his face, having observed the princes' hostility.

"I called you here for a reason.

"Who among you killed Gadel’s aide, Lilia?"

Silence fell over the room.

Everyone exchanged glances while Toby looked to his aide, who silently shook his head in denial.

After a long silence, King Gawain I frowned.

He suspected the killer was among them, but no one confessed.

"I’ve dispatched the Ebony Eagles. You have one more day as your last chance.

"Confess, and I might be lenient.

"Think carefully!"
