Chapter 430 Charging Blames(Chapter Preview)

—------------------------------------------

"if he is really a commoner then not only we are deceived but our future is in jeopardy!" gasps and whispers could be heard in the room as others started talking.

"Not only that my lord, the girl here suffered badly as she was abandoned by her family. Just because she was a girl! Isn't it too inhumane?

It shows how greedy and heartless the Thawyne family is! They were only worried about saving their name and respect so that they did not feel an ounce of regret in leaving their blood on the streets.

And now that her adopted parents had started to question their intentions, they brought her back into the family as her betrothed. Isn't it a horrendous crime.

They have even broken the laws of the empire and deceived the royal family. They did not consider anyone or anything to save their estate and their position as nobles.

They could have chosen to wed their daughters in a well off family and chose their groom as the new duke but they went up to this length to keep the title to themselves.

If we would let their action go without any punishment then others would follow it too.

Therefore from the behalf of all of us and for the equality and fair behavior, i request you to punish them appropriately that it would serve as a example for everyone.'' Most of them nodded or gave oral acceptance to what the man said as he looked at the family of Thawyne with challenging eyes.

Gloating at the downfall of the man, George smirked in his heart. He could not explain how relieved he was feeling.

As if cold water was sprayed on the fire that was burning for so long, his eyes were filled with joy that he could not show.

With a hesitated look on his face, he acted as if he was facing a dilemma to punish his brother that was closer to him than his family, he did not speak for long as if he was hurt and reluctant to give his verdict.

Everyone who saw him could feel sympathy for the man who had treated Twins so well like a family. He had given the highest post in administration to the father and highest post in the military to the son.

Not to forget that They were one of the richest families that even left the royal family behind due to their strong lineage.

The family had always been a threat for the royal family, even though the emperor treated them so well.

Even when their betrayal was proven, he was feeling trouble in punishing them. What a great man!

"Your majesty, before you take the decision, i wanted to speak too." Despite the scorns and ill words William was hearing, there was a warm smile on his face.

Like a sun that could not get affected by the actions of humans, his personality was spreading light that made others embarrassed and jealous.

"Of course, you have the right to put your points, defend yourself and even question the other party, Duke Thawne.

The royal court would not take any decision until both parties were done." nodding his head George encouraged William to speak.

There was no way William would be able to get out of this mess. George was assured that he was going to win today and he had even thought of the punishment.

He would strip William from his position and title of the noble and announce them as commoner.

As far as Leo was concerned, he would lose his position automatically if he were announced as commoner. Since the high posts were only reserved for nobles.

Today the long standing family whose roots were deep in the empire would wither away and soon everyone would forget about their existence.

He could already feel the taste of winning in his mouth.

"Your majesty, the man said that we have abandoned Evangeline and brought Leo to the palace because we wanted to save our title and did not want to give it to the grooms of our daughter, right?" many heads nodded and so as the man who had presented the case with a disgusted look on his face but William just chuckled warmly.

Best

"Your majesty, if that would have been the case, then am I not a fool?

I am giving the title to a boy of unknown origins who could always get rid of me and go in favor of their real family.

Wouldn't giving the title to my son in law be a better decision than giving the title to someone I didn't know anything about?" he asked in a soft voice.

He enunciated each word slowly so that everyone got what he was trying to convey and soon whispered started again.

"If anyone would be given a chance, wouldn't they choose a man of lower nobility and take him into their house as the husband of their daughter and train him to be their successor while making sure that the man would treat his daughter well.

Why would a person go to the extent of binding a stranger and leave his own daughter behind when he could have both of them?

The whole scenario did not make any sense. Everyone is trying to punish a victim while the preparator was left." he added when the silence ensued again.

His words have certain command and authority. The confidence on his face was unparalleled and that no one would dare to question his integrity.

Those who were sure that he was going to fall were looking at him with a daze . He had just spouted some words and had not given any proof yet. Yet his charisma was able to sway the hearts of many who were questioning their previous thoughts now.

The man gritted his teeth as he noticed the effect of duke Thawyne on others.

"You mean you have not done it? and sir Leonardo is your son? While lady Evangeline is a commoner as she had stated when she entered in Thawyne family?"
