Chapter: 841

"The Grants have been stepping all over us, and instead of standing up against them, you choose to grovel and please them? What an embarrassment to our family!"

"Fath-"

"Silence!" Andrew cut off Trent’s words.

"Our family has gone through all sorts of trials since its existence. How could we embarrass our ancestors by losing our dignity because of something like this?"

The Harmons lowered their heads in shame, unable to deny that the Grants had shaken them greatly.

"Listen carefully!" Andrew announced.

"Our priority should be to save Hector, and not be sitting ducks!"

He made Hector his successor because of how righteous and brave his son was, but now that Hector was captured, the entire family was thrown into chaos.

"Grandfather, we need to borrow the Grants’ power if we want to save Uncle Hector. Our best option is to hand Dustin over to them in exchange for Uncle Trent." Kate coaxed.

"Nonsense!" Andrew glared at his granddaughter.

"The Grants were the ones who framed and imprisoned your uncle, yet you think they’ll help us? What a joke!"

"What? Mr. Hector was imprisoned by the Grants?"

The crowd was dismayed to hear this. After all, framing the head of another family was not a small matter.

"Father, please refrain from making claims without evidence! There are ears everywhere." Trent reminded seriously.

"Evidence, you say? Sure!" Andrew turned around and called out.

"Isfrid? Bring him in."

Immediately, the leader of the shadow guards dragged a man into the room. The man wore a hood that made it difficult to identify his face and was tightly bound from head to toe.

"See this man? He’s the real murderer!" Andrew yanked off the man’s hood, exposing a familiar face.

It was Hector’s face!

"Mr. Hector?"

Everyone was puzzled by the sight. Hadn’t Hector been captured? What was he doing here?

"Yeah, right. He’s merely wearing a prosthetic mask!"
