章節 157: Guards

 Delaney looked into her husband's office and saw it was packed with guards. There were more than a dozen of them squeezed into the small space and Vincent was standing at his desk looking very serious as they spoke. Delaney glanced up at Ian and saw he looked uneasy.

 "So you see my Lord we just can't continue working alongside one of those people," a guard was saying, "They're unsavory characters."

 "Ian Black," Vincent said looking at him evenly, "You're saying Ian Black is an unsavory character."

 "Well yes Lord Adair. He's a pirate after all. We've seen what they're like now firsthand."

 "We've been able to see what Ian is like for more than a month," Vincent stood tall and was unwavering in his gaze, "And if you are referring to last night specifically, we saw him stand up to the pirates that were invading our beaches. He saved my life most certainly but probably many of yours as well."
