Chapter 148: Defeated

Thus it was best to keep the plan simple, go in, get Emery, and get out.

Aubrey was not aware of these details. In her mind, wouldn't it be better if they had more people with them? It would be easier to convince the council that Emery was innocent.

'We just need to provide them with evidence of Emery's brainwashing, is all. Everything will be alright.' Aubrey thought to herself.

Being an introvert, Aubrey would normally just quietly go along with the group but this time, she was not about to let this pass. This was her bottom line.
