Chapter 673

In an exclamation and restless uproar, Charles of the round table Council lowered his head and stared at the envelope in his hand: "I should have thought of... Little Joad."

"No, it only lets me know that someone is cheating in the round table, but it can't tell me who did it." Loren turned to her and stared into his eyes:

"It's impossible to know that you are the mastermind of the plan. Even Aton glenwell may not find that he was used by his despised brother."

Charles pursed the corners of his mouth and loosened his shoulders.

"Aton glenwell is your first step. You let me 'run into' him on the corridor and ruined the glenwell family's marriage plan with my hand;"

"You know very well that on behalf of Brandon's interests, I can't watch this happen."

"The challenge at the round table Council is your second step; the earls, led by count angert, who are excited and hate the Empire, will drive me out; I can't do anything without being in the hall;"

"Finally... Although I don't know how you did it, the letter shouldn't have arrived when the meeting was in progress; you withheld the distress letter of the Principality of POI as a card, so that the round table Council had no choice but to elect a new Duke immediately."

"Moreover, this Duke can never be Charlotte Turin." Loren murmured:

"You know her too well. Charlotte regards dignity as everything - if she refuses Aton's proposal, she can't agree to the second one; moreover, she knows that if she agrees, she will eventually cause a civil war between the Earls because of the fat meat of red blood castle!"

"So she can only surrender the throne of Duke; that's your purpose, isn't it?"

Silent Charles looked at him, neither admitting nor denying.

"This... Is also the most confusing place for me."

The black haired wizard turned his eyes to the oil painting on the wall and sighed: "I don't understand; the contradiction between you and Aton Grenville is not false. You have lived in red blood Castle since childhood, and your feelings for the Turin family must be higher than those for the Grenville family. You really care about Charlotte's feelings."

"So why... I really want to know why you are so eager to destroy her only wish in this life? You should know more than everyone how much she sacrificed for this ideal."

He closed his mouth and Charles said nothing.

Loren stared at him, waiting for an answer.

"... no reason."

Charles's voice trembled and his throat twitched:

"I just... Just want to protect her."
