Chapter 183: 182. Devil's Advocate (3)

The trial ended with the accused getting arrested and I quickly turned on my heel after giving Lord Oberon a nod. Grand Duchess met my gaze as I stepped up the stairs, she rose from her spot and joined right behind me as I walked up the stairs ignoring the people who were calling for me.

I and Lady Dahlia exited from the courthouse and got inside the carriage which was ready with Roan at the coach driver's position.

Roan waited for a while as Lord Oberon and Lord Clive walked out and got inside the carriage as well before we took off. Lady Dahlia sat beside me while Lord Oberon and Lord Clive took seats in front of us.

"Lord Clive, thank you for your help." I spoke making him smile.

"It's nothing in exchange for what you did for my son, Baron Ocean." He said and I smiled and then looked at Lord Oberon who spoke up with a pointed look.

"I was scared at first when you didn't show up for the whole hour. I thought I'd lose my head this time."
