Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 822

"Father..." Mary was speechless, as she didn't expect that her father would put all the blame on her sister.

"Is that so?" Lucilla's beautiful eyes narrowed with suspicion, as she listened to Raef. She had heard from Lucas that Juey had a close relationship with Rocky, but she was not very close to the other members of the Xiao Clan. And when Raef pushed all the blame to Juey, something in her stirred with suspicion. Thus, she didn't believe a single word that came from his mouth.

She turned to look at Lucas and the other elders immediately.

"In that case, I have no choice but to have Miss Juey come here so that she can face the chief of the Xiao Clan," Lucas said after a short silence, as he thought about what they could do next.

"Go and check if Miss Juey has woken up," Lucilla instantly commanded.

When Raef heard this, his heart skipped a beat and started beating fast. But it had come to this situation, so he would not show mercy, not even to his daughter. Anyway, he needed to ensure that the Xiao Clan would not be affected.

About half an hour later, Juey was taken to the Magnificent Hall. She didn't know what had happened last night, and she had been quite surprised to wake up in a strange room with two maidservants, who were looking at her strangely.

"Miss Juey, why did you stay in His Royal Highness's room last night? Do you know anything about the disappearance of His Royal Highness?" Lucilla asked as soon as Juey stepped her foot inside the hall.

"Miss Lucilla, I have no idea about what you are talking about. I don't know anything about why I woke up in that room or where His Royal Highness is." Juey frowned. No matter what she did, she couldn't remember what had happened, and the only thing she could remember was that she had suddenly lost consciousness after she drank the tea that Mary gave her. She couldn't remember what happened afterward.

"Juey, don't lie to us. I'm sure you sneaked into His Royal Highness's room last night to take Mary's place. How dare you! Don't you know who you are? How could you take advantage of this to get yourself into the upper class? I am ashamed that I have a daughter like you!" Raef spoke harshly, and as soon as Juey heard his acidic accusations, she was struck dumb.

Her face flushed in shame and anger, especially with how her father was treating her. Although she did not know what happened to her, it was clear that it was her father who framed her with an unknown crime. A strong wave of sorrow suddenly overcame her, as she was so disappointed by her father's actions.

"Just admit it, Juey. Otherwise, our Xiao Clan will be implicated. You know that the disappearance of His Royal Highness has nothing to do with our Xiao Clan. If you admit it, our father will plead with Chief Lucilla for mercy..." Travis added. The truth was he was also in their father's plan.

At the same time, the other members of the Xiao Clan also started whispering to each other, as they discretely pointed at Juey, no doubt talking about her.

Juey trembled, and she looked down at her feet and away from their judging looks. She had never thought that her father would ruthlessly abandon her again as if she was some worthless garbage.

"Miss Juey, do you have anything else you want to say?" Lucilla asked when she noticed that Juey didn't utter a word. How could she though, when her whole family was ganging up on her?

"I have nothing more to say." Juey shook her head helplessly, and at the back of her mind, she knew that no explanation could convince the people in the hall, especially when most of them accused her of the crime anyway.
