Chapter 799 Inciting Another Round of Infighting
Jethro took out a pill and stuffed it into Caspian's mouth.
However, even as time passed, Caspian's condition remained the same. Both Jethro and Jerry were puzzled. Without dwelling on it too much, Jethro began to chant the incantation.
Caspian decided to fool around with them.
All of a sudden, he shot up in bed and opened his eyes blearily.
"Look! It worked!" Jethro exclaimed in excitement.
Alas, as soon as he said that, Caspian lay back down.
Jethro repeated the incantation, but nothing happened.
He continued with his attempts for almost an hour to no avail. He was dumbfounded. This was his first time encountering such a strange situation.
"Forget it. It's almost been an hour. I'll get Jett over and have him figure out what's going on," Jerry said impatiently. He could no longer fully trust Jethro. Naturally, Jethro sensed the change in Jerry's attitude toward him, but he couldn't understand why his curse didn't work this time.
Scratching his head, he smiled sheepishly and explained, "I think it's because His Majesty is still recovering. The curse hasn't fully taken hold of him yet. It should work in a few hours."
Jerry paid Jethro no mind as he didn't quite believe him anymore.
In fact, Jerry was starting to doubt whether Jethro had truly assassinated several of Filren's senior politicians. If that were true, why was there no news about it from Filren yet?
When Avon, disguised as Jett, entered the headquarters of Life Force, he immediately caught the stench of blood.
"Mr. Dunn! You're finally back!" someone shouted.
In an instant, a group of people appeared. They were members of Life Force, and they were all ridden with injuries.
The moment they spotted Jett, they kneeled before him.
Sylvia, who was among them, had to kneel as well, lest she aroused suspicion.
Startled, Avon quickly pulled Sylvia back onto her feet before saying, "Tell me what's going on."
"The guards attacked us, Mr. Dunn. We can't let them get away with it! We must make them pay for this!" Sylvia declared angrily. “Please seek justice on our behalf, Mr. Dunn!" the other members chorused in unison.
It went without saying that Avon wanted Skyarch Palace to be embroiled in conflict. Such a situation would be beneficial to Caspian and his allies.
"We're all working for Mr. Andrews right now. I'm afraid it wouldn't be wise to confront them now. Furthermore, Mr. Andrews picked the guards himself," Avon said.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
He only wanted to use reverse psychology on them to rile them up. He didn't expect the members of Life Force to actually lose their drive for revenge the moment they heard what he said.
"We've also made a huge contribution this time, Mr. Dunn! Why should we let others humiliate us? Mr. Andrews is being so unfair! We can't keep letting others walk all over us!" Sylvia cried out angrily.
“What do you think we should do, then?" Avon asked grimly.
"Mr. Dunn, we don't seem to be benefiting from working for the Andrews family. | think we should just leave! We're all capable people. Even if we leave, we can still make something of ourselves!" Sylvia declared.
Avon checked the reactions of the Life Force members. Evidently, they weren't satisfied with her suggestion.
"That's ridiculous! Even though the guards are in the wrong this time, the Andrews family has treated us well all along. Without their support, we couldn't have made it this far. If anyone says anything like that again, | won't go easy on them!" Avon played it safe and threatened.
There was no telling whether anyone present was a mole for the Andrews family. "What about our fallen comrades, Mr. Dunn? Are we just going to sit here and do nothing?" Sylvia questioned.
"Those who wish to accomplish great things must not sweat the small details. If anything, we can just seek compensation from Mr. Andrews," Jett said.
Upon hearing that, the members of Life Force felt utterly defeated. They wanted Jett to stand up for them. Who would've thought that he was a coward himself? He didn't care about the deaths of his followers.
Just then, a guard standing outside shouted, "Mr. Andrews wants to see you, Mr. Dunn.” When the members of Life Force saw the guard, they immediately eyed him with hostility. Thus, the guard dared not enter and chose to shout from the entrance.
"Got it. I'll go over right now," Avon said before glancing at Sylvia.
Something must've happened for Jerry to summon him now.
Once Avon left, Sylvia started stirring the pot again. "Guys, M Ounn das! i apersatieniesh (oa tied tod. We'll have to sort this out ourselves." Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org. Her words struck a chord with everyone. They didn't want to confront the Andrews family, but that didn't mean they wanted to drop the matter entirely. "When have we ever been treated this way?" Sylvia fumed. "Those who want vengeance, come forward now!" Immediately, some of them stepped out of the crowd. "Are you trying to start a rebellion? You're trying to rile us up on purpose!" one of the members said. Sylvia swiftly kicked the person who had spoken.
"I'm just trying to seek justice for all our sakes. Are you willing to let the guards humiliate us lik ist @on't f os anyaee toyenire if they're not ing. l'll cut off all ties with Life Force and confront the guards as nothing more than a martial arts fighter!" Sylvia declared. Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.
She managed to convince many of the members, and a lot of them joined her. Only a portion of them remained unmoved.
Although only approximately half of them joined Sylvia, that was enough for her. Her goal was simply to create chaos in Skyarch Palace.
Over at the guards’ quarters, Kelvin was frowning hard. He couldn't m believe someo efyoneltte Force had kiihed Bahu, he deputy commander of the guards. Wasn't that a blatant provocation against him? Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.
He was even more furious that Lyndon had disappeared during the chaos.
Lyndon was extremely important to the Andrews family. If Jerry found out about Lyndon's disappearance, Kelvin would be severely punished as well.
Thus, Kelvin didn't want to waste any more time. He had to locate Lyndon at once. Just then, a few guards hurried over with two unfamiliar men. "Have you found Lyndon?" Kelvin asked frantically.
He wouldn't be able to rest easy until they caught Lyndon.
