章 393: Rose and thorns- Part 2

In one corner of the courtroom, Weasely listened to Lady Aubree's description as he started to draw the picture of the merchant named Elias. On the other side of the room, Helena and Calhoun spoke to each other with Madeline who stood next to them. 

"The members of the High House would never do something like that. They know well of the outcome of what will happen if they don't abide by the rules, King Calhoun," said Helena, her head turning to look at the people who had come with her. But Calhoun could tell by the look Helena had in her eyes, she was doubtful on whom to trust and whom to not, "The meeting is going to take place the day after tomorrow in the High House, and the matter would be discussed there."

"I cannot wait to attend it," came Calhoun's enthusiastic reply, before he added, "There was something else I had to discuss with you. Away from the ears and eyes of your people whom I don't trust," came his unfiltered words.
