Chapitre 354: A Heartfelt Goodbye

"Dear, I need to have a chat with you," After dinner, Xander had sat down with his wife. His voice was as light as a whisper but the look in his eyes told the whole situation.

Ellen loved Xander from the depths of her heart and she read him like a book, "What happened?"

"Well, I might leave,"

"So soon? You just came back from the last mission," Ellen did feel sad that her husband was leaving right after he came back but she knew it was part of his job.

"Ellen, this time is different," he held her hands in his hands and looked right into her eyes, "The council sent their hound dogs after me,"

Those were the words that made Ellen gulp. She knew what it meant, she herself had dealt with the council on several occasions and knew how the council worked. If they sent their people after someone, it only meant two things. Either an offer to join the council or to end the person.
