Reborn I Refuse To Save The Traitors (Margaery) novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226

“I…” Russell turned his head and hesitated. He just said, “It’s none of your business!”

With that, he turned and entered the city, hurrying off to buy a horse.

Time was pressing. He had to reach his destination as quickly as possible.

“Truly senseless!” Joshua shook his head angrily and said, “He’s getting mature, yet he never thinks of the family, just being angry with us.”

But as he spoke, his voice weakened.

If only they’d listened to Russell earlier, today’s tragedy would not have happened.

Now, the Wallen family was beset on all sides. No one knew what to do next.

“Is that Russell?” From inside the carriage came Raul’s faint, thread–like voice.

Avery quickly said, “Joshua, Dad is awake.”

Joshua hurriedly got out of the carriage and switched places with Avery, saying, “You go catch the carriage and take Andrew with you. I will discuss matters with Dad.”

After getting into the carriage, he sighed and said, “Dad, it was Russell, but he only said one sentence before running off. Right now, we can’t worry about him.”

He pondered the whole way, deeply troubled. “Dad, now that Margaery is not dead, the King would know today’s events. How are we supposed to explain this?” he said.

Raul felt overwhelmed and finally closed his eyes, saying, “There’s no way out.

“We can only say that the one we intended to kill was not Margaery, but actually a scapegoat. We’ve discovered that Tessa is a fraud, and we also know that the person who was captured was not Margaery.”

Joshua nodded and said, “That’s all we can do. Otherwise, we would be accused of harming the Star of Fortune, and who knows what would happen then.”

He pressed his brow and added, “But I’m afraid someone with ulterior motives will latch onto this and not let go. After all, so much has happened recently, and we can’t withstand an investigation.”

Sullivan’s body was still in the morgue at the Magistrate’s Court

If someone seized on this and impeached them in the imperial court, things would get complicated.

Raul said, “Tonight, I will make a trip to the palace.”

He closed his eyes, trembling. “We can’t let someone impeach us. We must take the initiative to admit our mistakes.”

‘If we wait to be impeached, it will be too late, he thought.

He took a deep breath and instructed Joshua, “After I enter the palace tonight, you must take Andrew and Avery and Margaery’s forgiveness.

“No matter what she says, we must show our sincerity.”

At this point, his chest ached in waves.

He thought, ‘How did I end up like this?‘

In a daze, he recalled the days before Tessa arrived, when the entire Wallen family was filled with joy.

Back then, Margaery was the only daughter of the Wallen family flitting about the courtyard like a butterfly all day long, her laughter and cheerful voice filling every corner.

She truly loved to laugh so much.

And she was like a ray of sunshine. No matter who was unhappy she would comfort them and always give small gifts to every family member.

What a thoughtful girl she was!

A stabbing pain surged from his chest, as if a demon’s hand gripped his heart, causing him to hunch over and curl up in

agony.

“It’s my fault, it’s all my fault!”

He lay face down on the carriage, crying out loud.

Joshua felt upset inside.

He thought, ‘It is not just Raul. We are also in a bad situation.

‘After Tessa arrived, she took over everything that belonged to Margaery. We all thought it was only natural, allowing Tessa to take away Margaery’s servants.

‘It was not that Tessa was so kind that the servants insisted on following her.

‘In fact, to show our favor toward Tessa, each of us gave her a lot of money. Even the monthly allowance Tessa received was ten times that of Margaery!

“Tessa had money to win people over.

‘Moreover, the servants, always currying favor with Tessa, saw that we all protected Tessa, so naturally they helped her trample on Margaery.

‘All those bitter consequences, every humiliation Tessa inflicted on Margaery, were entirely enabled by us!

‘Before Tessa arrived, Margaery had always been a little glutton since childhood, and I brought her desserts from the palace every few days.

‘Ever since Tessa came, I never played with Margaery again.

“The things brought from the palace all went to Tessa. And I even blamed Margaery for being immature, not knowing how to be modest.’

Thinking of this, Joshua slammed his head against the carriage wall!

A large bump rose on his forehead. Yet he felt no pain.

Meanwhile, as they entered the city, Warren had already returned to the palace.

“How is it?” The King looked up from the imperial desk, his expression somewhat complicated as he gazed at Warren.

‘Surely, it could be as Margaery said, that the Wallen family had truly done such a thing?‘ the King thought.

Warren sighed and replied, “Your Majesty, the conduct of the Wallen family is despised by all. They are far more vile than

Margaery described. Moreover, this has implicated an old case from many years ago.”

The King was taken aback and said, “Explain in detail!”

Warren nodded and recounted the events thoroughly, leaving nothing out.

The King, enraged, slammed his palm on the imperial desk. He said, “Absolutely intolerable!

“This is our Chancellor! The personal guard, someone I once placed in the Royal Medical Hall!

“And Grace. What kind of disciples has she produced!”

To save others, they tortured and killed Margaery. Not even beasts would commit such acts.

Yet, it was the Chancellor of the Eastvale Empire and his favored sons who did this!

Warren was so frightened he dared not speak.

The King’s chest heaved for a long moment before he calmed himself. He continued, “That case of the treasury fraud must be investigated. This Raul, truly…”

He was nearly at a loss for words to curse him.
