章 2111: Dealing with the Council (14)

Albert pointed a shaky finger at Jarred. "This is all your fault."

Jarred looked at Albert blankly for a moment and then his expression darkened. "Explain yourself."

Albert was mentally snapping. All this was too much, and he needed to blame someone. Anyone. He picked Jarred.

"If you didn't insist on bringing Sarah here, we would not find ourselves in this mess."

Jarred sneered. "And if you didn't threaten her and act against her, she would be our ally. Did you think about that?"

"He acted against Sarah?", Sinet asked with a frown.

Jarred nodded in confirmation, and Albert was too distraught to pay attention.

"I told you that she is too powerful.", Albert spoke frantically. He started talking to Jarred, but then he was getting into Sinet's face; Suvedini, Ksenia, and Sloan got their share of glares as well.
