Grand Elder Edwin and Grand Elder Inez's eyes constricted once they heard George's unexpected confession, while Vincent was calmer as he had already suspected it. Still, Vincent didn't expect George to reveal this fact in this kind of circumstance.
"Did you know about this Sect Master?" Grand Elder Inez looked at Vincent. She could tell that Vincent didn't react much, and Edwin sensed the same as he glanced at Vincent for an answer.
But before Vincent could clarify, George spoke first as he bent his knee in front of them and pleaded, "Please don't blame Sect Master. He didn't know about this, and only I'm to blame for this deception! But I have no intention of harming the AIG Sect since the sect has been nothing but kind to me, and I consider it my home!
"But I won't change the fact that I used deception and even brought trouble to the Sect! I-I don't want to run from reality anymore, so please give me a chance to atone and hand me over to the bank!"
