Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 933

“T-They were the ones who made the first move by approaching me. According to them, you will surely pass down the inheritance right to me if something were to happen to Sebastian. That’s why I agreed to collude with them,” Stephen stuttered and pointed at the members of the Cabinet Council with his quivering finger.

His words rang out like thunder to everyone, striking the congress hall once again.

This time around, everyone in the congress hall only gaped at the members of the Cabinet Council with a perplexed look. Apparently, their senses were prevailed by the previous overwhelming moments and their minds had since turned mushy. My goodness! Is the worst yet to come?

It wasn’t until quite some time had passed did the Director of Public Prosecutions come to his senses. He looked in the direction of the Cabinet Council. “Mr. Hamilton, is he telling the truth?”

In response, Franklin shook his head and responded casually, “I’m clueless of that.”

The Chief Prosecutor’s eyes widened in disbelief. He could not believe that Franklin sounded innocent without a sense of guilt.

 

An infuriated Jonathan lashed out at once. “What do you mean? Are you trying to say that my son is telling lies? Now that he has relented and admitted his wrongful act, do you think it still makes sense for him to lie?”

Franklin simply shrugged and replied placidly, “I wish to make myself clear again. I really don’t have any clue about that.”

 

He paused and suggested abruptly by tossing Jonathan a meaningful look. “Anyway, Old Mr. Jadeson, if you don’t trust all of us from the Cabinet Council, I can arrange for everyone to have a confrontation with your son now. What do you think?”

At the peak of fury, Jonathan blurted out, “Then what are you waiting for? Get all of them here at once!”

Sadly, a fearless military commander for his whole life on the battlefield was unaware of the hideousness of those despicable ones who merely spent time scheming in their comfort zone. At the same time, the Chief Prosecutor was starting to smell a rat.

In the meantime, one of the members from the Cabinet Council had dashed out of the congress hall. Within a while, all the members of the Cabinet Council gathered at the congress hall.

“Lieutenant Colonel Jadeson, everyone from the Cabinet Council is here now. Try and see if the person you are looking for is among them. Before that, however, a word of advice. Regardless of anything, your words are nothing without concrete evidence,” Franklin reminded Stephen as if he was hinting at something.

Right that instant, Stephen could not think of anything else. His mind was preoccupied with the yearning to stay alive.

He was sure as hell that Jonathan had actually granted him a chance to fight for his life by pointing out his mistake in front of everyone. There would still be a chance for him to twist the situation once he revealed the mastermind behind all this.

He scanned the members of the Council Cabinet one by one before he pointed at a short, plump man standing far right among the others. The man was none other than the Deputy Chief.
