NovelBookChapter 568 Chapter 568 Helen had just left when Salvador arrived. After paying his respects to the queen dowager, Victoria handed him the carrier pigeon note.
"Carissa left the city last night and specifically instructed your aunt to deliver this note to the palace for you." Salvador glanced at it and smiled. "If she left in the middle of the night, it must be something important. There's no need to informof every detail." Victoria replied, "She's a woman carrying a deputy commander's emblem. That she left the capital in the middle of the night, it is only right that she informs you." Salvador nodded, his face showing subtle concern. "I hope Lawrence will return safely." It was a surprise to discover that Septimus was Lawrence. The Marquis of Elderglen's family was indeed a family of military nobility. Even though many of the younger generations had turned to civilian roles in recent years, there were always a few who carried on the family's legacy of honor and resilience.
Victoria watched him, wanting to say something, but ultimately keeping her words to herself. Sthings, once spoken, could only deepen her son's suspicions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOliver's report arrived at the prminister's office, stating that the Hell Monarch had disappeared after reaching Simonton City.
Jeremiah had reviewed the report, and pushed it aside. He knew very well that Rafael's purpose in Simonton City was not for negotiations, but to rescue Septimus.
Several days later, another report from Oliver arrived. Jeremiah read it with great excitement, and immediately went to request an audience with Salvador.
Salvador read the report and was overjoyed. "Eleven people-it was actually eleven people! And they have all safely returned to Simonton City!" Jeremiah's voice choked with emotion. "Yes, thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, they all made it back to Simonton City." Salvador was thrilled, and issued an order at once. "Bestow them rewards! Make sure they're given substantial rewards! Derek, summon the Minister of Protocol and his deputies to prepare a ceremony to welcthe heroes back. Also, the Civil Minister..." As Salvador was giving the orders, he suddenly paused and looked at the list. "Joshua and Benson-these two are Richard's sons." Jeremiah replied, "Your Majesty, we should inform each family to share in the joy. The eleven men won't be returning to the capital immediately. Lawrence's injuries are severe, and may delay their return." Salvador looked at a non the report, and then at Jeremiah. "Thomas Farrell-Thomas' wife married Barrett, correct?" Jeremiah suddenly remembered that fact, and said, "Your Majesty, Thomas' wife had already returned to her family long ago. She remarried as the third lady of the Prince family." "I see." Salvador didn't say much more. That small matter did nothing to diminish his delight.
"Derek, send someone to inform each family individually. There's no need to visit the Farrell family-they should already know. As for the two from Stonebrook District, draft an edict for the governor of Stonebrook District. Have him inform their families first. After the rewards are bestowed upon their return to the capital, they can return hto reunite with their families." "Yes, Your Majesty!" Derek accepted the order and withdrew.
Jeremiah took his leave, choosing not to show Oliver's initial report to Salvador. It might seem like a simple statement, but it was essentially a complaint. Even if presented to Salvador, it wouldn't significantly harm the Hell Monarch.
However, Jeremiah was worried that certain matters could be rehashed later.
Oliver didn't know about the rescue mission, as Rafael had kept it from him. He had done it likely due to the need for discretion and confidentiality.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut if Salvador took a moment to consider, he might misinterpret Rafael's silence as a sign of distrust toward Oliver. It would then lead Salvador to believe Rafael had gone missing intentionally.
If the Hell Monarch distrusted Oliver, did that imply dissatisfaction with the king for taking command of the Hell Monarch Army? So, it was best to keep this report away from Salvador to avoid unnecessary complications.
Given that the government ministries were not far from the prom minister's office, Jeremiah planned to inform Richard personally of the news. When Richard saw Jeremiah arriving at the Ministry of Protocol, he hurriedly gathered his staff to greet him.
Jeremiah smiled and said, "Carry on with your work. I'm here to speak with Mr. Cooper about@private m matter unrelated to official duties." Richard was somewhat puzzled. The prminister was visiting him for personal matters? X
