"You're right, Your Majesty! I'll carry out your command right away. Take care of yourself, Your Majesty!" Joseph exclaimed in excitement.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Jerry cut off the call. Infuriated, he picked up a mug from the table and raised it to throw it at Caspian. However, Avon stopped him.
"Jett Dunn! What are you trying to do? Have you been secretly doing something behind my back? Is that why His Majesty is reacting this way?" Jerry snarled as he glowered at Avon.
"Mr. Andrews, His Majesty is very frail right now. He can't communicate as well as he used to. If you injure him now, he might suffer some kind of permanent damage!" Avon hurriedly cautioned.
"He seems perfectly fine to me. Why else would he go against me?" Jerry shot back doubtfully.
"This isn't His Majesty's fault, Mr. Andrews. You raised your hand in front of him just now, so he must've assumed you meant increasing the number of soldiers to 500 thousand..." Avon explained.
Jerry was stupefied. That wasn't what he had meant at all. He didn't think Balthazar would have misunderstood him.
“Hahaha! Oh, please don't take this to heart, Mr. Dunn. | was a bit anxious, so | misspoke earlier. | hope you won't hold it against me," Jerry quickly said.
He couldn't terminate all ties with Jett just yet.
“Of course, Mr. Andrews. | would never hold it against you. Life Force is indebted to you, and I'll always remember the kindness you've shown us. All | want is for you to know that I'm nothing but loyal to you," Avon replied.
“Rest assured, Mr. Dunn. Once | seize control of Diatoran, I'll reward you handsomely!" Jerry declared while patting Avon on the shoulder.
"Thank you, Mr. Andrews!" Avon said respectfully. Meanwhile, Jethro had an unpleasant look on his face as he took in Avon and Jerry's pleasant exchange. "Mr. Andrews, we should give His Majesty a few days to recover. He's really not in a good condition," Avon said.
"Don't worry, | won't let His Majesty appear in public for the time being. I'm still trying to figure out what | should do now after he passed on the wrong message earlier," Jerry said in exasperation.
"If you don't need me anymore, Mr. Andrews, then I'll take my leave first. Do summon me whenever you want," Avon said. Once Avon left, Jerry eyed Jethro and asked icily, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
"Yes, Mr. Andrews. I'll get going, then..." Jethro said before awkwardly leaving Balthazar's bedroom.
Over at Massey Residence, Denzel was thrilled to see Logan and Sherry walking around hand-in-hand. All of a sudden, Denzel recalled he had something urgent to report to Logan.
Thus, he shouted, "Mr. Massey! | have something important to tell you."
Logan was displeased. Now that he had finally reunited with Sherry, he didn't want to be bothered. "What's so important? It can wait till tomorrow," Logan snapped impatiently.
All he wanted to do now was spend some time reconnecting with Sherry.
"This is no ordinary matter, Mr. Massey. It needs to be dealt with right away or the consequences would be extremely dire!" Denzel exclaimed, feeling so frantic that he started sweating.
“Logan, go ahead and listen to what Logan has to say. I'll head in first," Sherry chimed in, wisely taking her leave. Since Denzel had an important matter to discuss, Sherry chose not to occupy Logan's time. As Sherry left, Logan was visibly annoyed.
"What's going on with you, Denzel? You've been working with me for years now. Don't you know when to not disturb me? What's so urgent that you have to tell me about it right away?”
Denzel swiftly informed Logan of Caspian's plan.
Logan froze in shock. He couldn't believe Caspian would be bold enough to come up with such an idea.
Macy had even entered the King's residence disguised as Sherry.
If Jerry's spies saw Sherry returning to Massey Residence, Caspian and the others would be in grave danger.
Immediately, Logan felt a sense of dread. He fervently hoped that no one was paying any attention to Massey Residence today.
"This is such a crucial situation. Why didn't Caspian tell me about it sooner? Does he not trust me?" Logan said somewhat disappointedly.
"That's not true, Mr. Massey. Why would Mr. Caspian let Mrs. Massey and Ms. Willow come over to Massey Residence if he didn't trust you?" Logan said.
Only then did Logan have a moment of realization. Caspian's actions proved that he trusted Logan! "| need to help Caspian at once. | can't let him remain in such a dangerous situation alone," Logan said, feeling a lot better now.
"It's best if we don't do anything that will catch other people's attention, Mr. Massey. | don't know the full details of Mr. Caspian's plan. Why don't we just observe the situation first?
"Mr. Caspian is the Diatoranian God of War, so don't worry. I'm sure he can handle himself," Denzel advised.
Logan nodded in agreement. It was now time for the younger generation to shine.

After leaving the King's residence, Jethro ran into Kelvin.
He wanted to avoid Kelvin as he didn't want to suffer any further humiliation, but unexpectedly, Kelvin spoke up. "When did you return to Dhord City, Mr. Roman?"
"Greetings, Mr. Andrews," Jethro said.

"Are you free, Mr. Roman? I'd like to have a chat with you,” Kelvin asked courteously. Jethro was confused. Kelvin had never been this courteous with him before. After noticing Jethro's hesitance, Kelvin placed a hand on Jethro's shoulder.
That only served to startle Jethro even more. He didn't know what to do, so he could only follow Kelvin back to the guards’ headquarters.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

The moment Kelvin gave the command, over a dozen guards rushed over and surrounded Jethro. Kelvin had arranged it all from the start. He had been lying in wait for Jethro earlier. "Is there some kind of misunderstanding, Mr. Andrews?" Jethro asked as he stared at Kelvin in fear.
He didn't know why Kelvin was doing this to him.
