The Crown's Seduction

Chapter 263: The Wanted Warlock

Chapter 263: The Wanted Warlock

The palace was in an uproar… And not just the palace, but the whole kingdom went into a frenzy as soon as the news about the gruesome death of the Minister of Justice spread like wildfire across every part of Valcrez.

Silence reigned inside the courtroom the next morning. None dared to speak first as they waited for the King to break the silence. As expected, Exordium Eva and some of the other officials who were part of the Rossi Clan weren't present in the court meeting. All except for Minister Rory and a few of his supporters didn't even bother showing up from the clan.

From where he sat, Nikolai had a blank expression as he looked at the court officials before him. Haman had been eliminated from the equation, and now the next on the list was the Wagner Clan. He was aware that Sage Wagner was plotting something, but after the incident yesterday, he trusted that the Clan would have second thoughts or perhaps hesitate in making any move against him at until things die down.

His gaze darted to Amed Wagner, the Minister of Commerce. Unlike Haman, Amed's records were clean. He was doing a great job in his position and he was hardworking on top of it as well.
