Chapter 124: The Banquet Begins, and Trouble Brews!

Nicholas William pondered for a moment and then said, "Teacher, are you planning to confront the Joy family directly at the banquet, forcing them to reveal the truth so they can no longer hide anything?"

"What if they lie to you?"

Nicholas William's voice grew serious. "Wouldn't it be better to just capture one of their ministers? They've been in the capital the whole time, so they must know the details of what's been happening."

Dean Bruce shook his head and replied, "Ministers are still just officials. There are many things they might not be privy to. Besides, the entire Joy family seems rather strange. The information we get from them should be more genuine."

Nicholas William nodded and said, "Teacher, whatever you need me to do, just tell me. From what it looks like, my fiancée's fate is already sealed. The only way I can avenge her is by uncovering the truth!"
