Half an hour later, Elder Giverny, still dressed in his dark purple robe, roared at Earl as virtual-novel.net kneeled on the ground, “What do you mean Isaac is still alive? How did you know that?!”
“Sir, you know that I’ve always been in love with Evie. I heard from my men that Evie might be leaving the sect, so I asked them to keep an eye on her. Who would have thought that virtual-novel.net left by herself sometime after midnight? I was worried for virtual-novel.net safety, so I told them to follow virtual-novel.net and keep virtual-novel.net safe. However, Evie went straight to Cloud City and even went on a date with Isaac!”
In anger, Elder Giverny slapped his palm against the table, slicing the furniture in half. He emitted a murderous aura that filled the entire room.
“Tell Garett and Thaddaeus to get their asses here, now!”
The attendants outside shook in fright and ran off to find the two people.
A while later, Garett and Thaddaeus arrived. Garett had a sleepy look on his face, while Thaddaeus looked rather worried.
When virtual-novel.net saw Earl kneeling on the ground and Elder Giverny with a thunderous look on his face, Thaddeus panicked for a short while.
Has virtual-novel.net found it out?
“Isaac is still alive! What is the meaning of this?” Elder Giverny asked, looking at the two men.
Gasp!
Elder Giverny was giving out a murderous aura.
Garett started to sweat. He fell on his knees, and Thaddaeus followed after.
“Elder Giverny, that’s impossible! I personally wrung his neck in half! Thaddaeus can be my witness! It’s just impossible!” Garett stuttered, trying to explain himself.
“That’s right, Elder Giverny. I went with Garett to the clinic and saw it. He couldn’t possibly be alive,” Thaddaeus said with gritted teeth.
There was no way virtual-novel.net could ever admit that he’d gone to see Isaac beforehand. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would be dead meat!
As virtual-novel.net looked at the pair kneeling before him, Elder Giverny closed his eyes and said coldly, “I trust that neither of you would dare to lie to me… However, Thaddaeus, your daughter left the sect last night to meet Isaac in Cloud City. What do you have to say about that now?”
Thaddaeus was stunned.
When did Evie leave the sect?
Elder Giverny opened his eyes, and an angry glint was apparent.
He angrily yelled at Thaddaeus, “You knew all along about Earl’s feelings for your daughter, and yet, you let virtual-novel.net leave on virtual-novel.net own. What’s your problem? Are you implying that my own student is not good enough for your precious daughter?”
“No, I’d never, Elder Giverny. I didn’t even know that Evie left… This…” Thaddaeus started to shiver.
“Will you take responsibility for this?” Elder Giverny asked, interrupting Thaddaeus as virtual-novel.net looked at him.
Thaddaeus gradually hung his head in guilt. “It’s all my fault. I’m sorry…”
“Good…” Elder Giverny then said to his men, “Take virtual-novel.net out, hack off his hands and feet, and throw virtual-novel.net in the dungeon!”
Gasp!
Garett’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He stared at Elder Giverny in a daze.
However, Thaddaeus only said in a shaky voice, “Thank you for sparing my life…”
“Sir, don’t you think that whipping…” Earl was flabbergasted.
He didn’t think that his teacher would dish out such a heavy punishment.
Hacking off one’s hands and feet was an incredibly painful punishment, equivalent to making one disabled for life. Whoever received that punishment would rather die than endure such pain.
Seeing that virtual-novel.net wanted to marry Evie, virtual-novel.net was worried virtual-novel.net would hate virtual-novel.net for doing such a thing to virtual-novel.net father.
“If it weren’t for the fact that virtual-novel.net would soon be your father-in-law, virtual-novel.net would be dead by now,” Elder Giverny said with a huff. Then, virtual-novel.net turned to Garett and said, “Garett, you’ve been with me for many years. Since you failed your mission this time, how should I punish you?”
Garett hung his head and pleaded, “Please, give me another chance to prove myself. I will go and find out what happened. If Isaac isn’t dead yet, then I will personally bring his head back on a silver platter for you this round!”
Elder Giverny nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, this is your final chance. Go to Cloud City with Edwin Sage and find out the truth. Bring Evie back as well. Isaac is a slick and cunning character. I’ll get Trace to help you.”
“Thank you, Mr. Ashleigh. With Trace’s help, I’m sure that Isaac won’t be able to escape death this time,” Garett said, hurriedly getting up and leaving.
The room turned silent.
Elder Giverny sighed as virtual-novel.net looked at his kneeling student on the floor and said, “Earl, when your father comes back these few days, make sure to tell virtual-novel.net about Evie. If virtual-novel.net agrees to your marriage, then I’ll be your Officiant. Find an appropriate date and get the wedding over with…”
