It didn't take long for the squad of guards to rush in and completely fill the conference hall.
The lead guard shouted at Isabelle to drop her gun, and only then did the old King start to feel a bit safer and more in control. He took a deep breath to steady himself.
Then, he asked Liam, who was standing nearby, "Duke Carter, what's the punishment for killing someone here, especially if it's a royal guard?"
Liam tilted his head slightly and asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to talk to Isabella alone? Why are there so many guards here?"
Liam's action of defending Isabelle upset everyone. They felt that he couldn't distinguish between what was important and what wasn't.
