Theo ordered Christopher to proceed to his chamber, where they pursued their argument over Diana. Theo's advisers came with him, hoping to convince Christopher against his decision.
"You can make that woman your mistress, but you have to marry Diana!" Suggested Tarafi.
The other elders echoed the same, and it further inflamed Christopher. As he gritted his teeth in frustration, more words come out from the elders.
"What is in the woman? Who is that woman!"
"Which nation? Who's elite family does she come from?"
All Christopher could say was lie. For now, while his father opposed Amanda, he could not tell them the truth. Only he, Cassy, his friends, and his trusted soldiers knew that Amanda crossed the gate from Trinity Bay.
He looked at his father in the eye and said, "Amanda is from a normal family here in Aeros."
