Chapter 2737: Use That

The Emberheart Lady spoke calmly and in the end, her husband couldn't refute anything she said. 

Inwardly, though, they both felt complicated about this matter. Nothing in Leonel's letter was wrong. They had disparaged his wife, and they had raised the status of Lyra. 

The latter choice was because Lyra's marriage to Thalion was meant to be the catalyst they needed in order to move forward with the next steps of their plan. 

Part of their mixed feelings was exactly because of this. They had put their daughter directly in the line of fire not just once, but twice now. Although the world didn't know, how could they not know that they had tried to marry her off to Leonel first. 

These matters built up frustration in layers and they felt like they were being painted into a box. But ultimately, they never had a choice… 

Until now.
