Chapter 1174: Lord Bernard's Decision (Part-3)

(Sorry guys, I was really sick these days. I will make up the missed chapters soon, Cheers!)

As Ser Robert pointed out the flaw in Ser Ballmer's statement, the latter understandably went ashen, while Lord Bernard felt rejuvenated, his eyes glowing up with glee.

And seeing this, Ser Ballmer tried one last time, crying out so in a desperate plea, 

"My lord, please think it over! Lord Parker is too powerful! How can switching to Lady Margaret save us? Save our family? That is a ducal family! They have the backing of all the nobles in the country."

"And that Alexander is pathetic. We outnumber him ten to one! The Heeat family will crush him any day now."

"So please! Do not let a momentary setback blind you to the truth! Such things happen. Both Lord Parker and Lady Linda are reasonable people. I am sure they will understand what happened here today if you explain it to them."
