Female Novel
Chapter 2683 Keeping Secrets
Ghaylen turned to look at Ebenez. For a moment, he could not tell if Ebenez was speaking the truth.However, at that point, he had no choice but to believe his words.
Ghaylen could not think of any other possible methods to resolve the situation besides working withEbenez.
“I trust you, Ebenez. We'll wait for Ms. Viola to reveal Hosen's true colors during the sect meetingand regain control over Emerald Cauldron Sect,” Ghaylen said.
“Okay. I'll make the arrangements now. If we work together to help Ms. Viola get back EmeraldCauldron Sect, everything will turn out fine.” Ebenez then turned to Viola. “Ms. Viola, I'll be takingmy leave now.”
“Thank you, Mr. Erdell,” Viola replied politely.
Once Ebenez was gone, Viola turned to Ghaylen and asked, “Mr. Samoll, do you think Mr. Erdell issomeone we can trust?”
Ghaylen was silent for a moment. “I don't know either, but we have no choice but to trust him now. Ihope that he truly wants to help us for the sake of the previous lord.”
Viola fell silent. Now, their success was dependent on Ebenez.
Once Ebenez was out of Ghaylen's place, a smug smile grew on his face.
Instead of returning to his own house, he headed straight to Hosen.
“Ebenez, it's rather late. Why are you here?” Hosen asked when he saw Ebenez.
“Hosen, there's something I want to tell you,” Ebenez replied.
“What is it?” Hosen closed his eyes and leaned back on his chair lazily.
Ebenez glanced at the two disciples at the side before dismissing them with a wave. “Leave theroom. I have something to report to Mr. Holt.”
The few disciples froze, then looked at Hosen in unison.
After all, Hosen was the one they answered to, not Ebenez.
“You guys can leave,” Hosen muttered, waving his hand.
Once the disciples were gone, Ebenez hurried over to Hosen and started whispering to him.
Upon listening to Ebenez's story, Hosen widened his eyes and leaped off his chair.
“Is that really true, Ebenez?” Hosen asked in shock.novelbin
“Of course it is. Why would I lie to you? I just came back from Ghaylen's place,” Ebenez saidseriously.
Hosen furrowed his brows and narrowed his eyes, a murderous look creeping into them.
“I can't believe Ms. Viola is still alive. No wonder the new disciple Ghaylen took in looked familiar.It's been years since then. Ghaylen's quite good at keeping secrets, isn't he?” Then, Hosen whippedhis head toward Ebenez and questioned, “Ebenez, why did you tell me about this? The previouslord treated you well.”
Hosen could not wrap his head around why Ebenez would tell him about this.
If Ebenez and Ghaylen worked together, and since Viola had woken up, it would be a piece of cakefor them to take Emerald Cauldron Sect back into their hands.
Yet, Ebenez had chosen to betray Ghaylen and Viola. It confused Hosen.
“Hosen, you've treated me well too. You let me manage various affairs in the sect, and you evenassigned something as important as the warehouse to me. I know that my good days will only last ifI work for you. If Viola takes over the sect, Ghaylen will become the important figure of the sect. I'mafraid I won't have a place here anymore,” Ebenez said.
