Chapter 354
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Sergei and Gwyneth came back from the barrier and stopped by Dudian's side . They were surprised to see the writing on the sand . Sergei rapidly approached and lifted his foot to erase the memo .
Dudian stopped him .
"Ah?" Sergei was stunned .
"I wrote it" Dudian said as he looked at both of them: "Are you done? If so, then let's go!"
Sergei pulled him back: "Are you crazy? We have killed so many people who belonged to Holy Church . If such a message is leaked out no one will be able to protect even an architect like you!"
"Who said I did it?" Dudian asked .
"Your name is written on the ground . It will put you on the first row in the suspect list as the most suspicious peron . What do you reckon they will think when they saw your name on ground? Even the Holy Church may not believe to you!"
"There will be a proof . . . " Dudian turned away as he looked at the red heat .
Sergei was startled as he looked at Gwyneth for a tip .
Gwyneth shook her head as she went after Dudian .
Sergei touched the back of his head as he was at a loss .
. . .
. . .
Dudian's castle .
A number of journalists from various news agencies were by the gate waiting for an interview . They were whispering one after another which made the place very boiling and lively .
"You can't enter!"
"I said no one can not enter! Young master is an architect . If you dare to break into this private property then we will sue you!"
Neuss, Sander and four knights from the Ryan family were blocking the entrance . There were many people from different news agencies which wanted to sneak into the castle .
Old Fulin sat in the chair inside the castle's hall . From time to time he looked through the windows to the situation outside the castle . There was anxiousness in his heart . This same thing has been happening every day for the last two or three days . They had sent message outside the giant wall but no reply was received . The noise coming off from the outside made him very upset .
"Patriarch, You should go upstairs to rest . " Kroen said in a low tone as he came to Old Fulin's side: "I will inform you when the young master comes back . "
Old Fulin shook his head: "I'll be here waiting for him . You should go outside to help to deal with those flies . "
Kroen sighed and turned away .
Sander who wiped the sweat of his forehead entered the hall after few moments . He sat on chair as he kneaded his sore arm . Jake who was sitting in the hall whispered: "When do you think the young master will come back? Is it really as the newspapers write about him?"
Sander turned his head and looked at him: "Shut up, you idiot!"
Jake didn't say anything . If it was before then he wouldn't care much about his brother let alone fear him . But know because of his mistakes the Ryan family could decline or even perish .
Sander looked at him in disgust . He felt ashamed as he knew that he had the same father as Jake . He stood up and went towards Old Fulin: "Father if he continues to sit still then Mellon will continue their wanton attacks . I'm afraid even if he comes back there won't be much of a change . "
Old Fulin looked at his son . In the last few days the hair on Sander's temples had turned white . He sighed: "The greatest contribution we can do to him at this point is by doing nothing . If we move out of this castle then Mellon will use us once again to attack him . So the only option is to wait . We have a hope as long as the barbarians don't attack!"
There was sadness in Sander's eyes: "I'm afraid there is nothing we can do to hold the attack of the barbarians . There are news in the papers to sway the public opinion . It is written that Mr Dean has secretly sold information to the barbarians . Moreover it is mentioned that he has sold his inventions to the barbarians so that they could easily pass through the Fort King (The one by the Red Maple mountain) . Many civilians believe these stories to be true . In addition today's military newspaper also reported that the barbarians that they had captured had admitted that Mr Dean had cooperated with them . I believe that Mr Dean will never do such a thing . I think both Mellon consortium and military wants to frame him!"
Old Fulin lightly smiled: "Except civilians everyone else is aware of this dirty trick . "
"It is fortunate that we have Scott consortium and Holy Church who makes the balance or else . . . " He continued: "They will send someone to make the charges . "
"Pray . . . " Old Fulin closed his eyes .

The conference hall . Mellon consortium .
The acting patriarch of the Mel family, Mark was sitting at the table in the conference hall . Patriarch Rudolp from the Burong family was sitting on his right . As of now the situation was totally different to the one few months ago . Mel family held the right to veto as they had 51 percent of the shares in the consortium . They didn't need to comply with Burong family as they did back in the old days . Even if Burong family cooperated with the other forces within the consortium there wouldn't be much they could do .
It was a very heavy blow to Burong and other families within the consortium . It would be very difficult for them to sway the direction of the consortium . At this point the Mel family was holding onto the absolute executive power .
"Mark, your daughter is just over sixteen years old now . I don't think she should be participating in the conference at this age . You should not misunderstand me as I think that Miss Sarah is a good girl She looks so charming . The girls in her age should be studying piano or listening to White Swan music . " A middle aged man smiled and said .
Mark glanced back at him . He hadn't opened his mouth yet when the girl sitting on his left side said: "I think its not right to judge the person's ability because of their age . By the way I have reached level six in piano studies . Which level your daughter has practiced to?"
Middle-aged man laughed as he wasn't angered by her words: "How can my little girl be compared to you? I just feel bad that your father brought you into such an environment at such a young age . It will break the beautiful childhood that you should enjoy . Be careful . "
"Not worth mentioning . " Sarah indifferently said as her tone was very calm .
Everyone quietly watched the little girl .
"Okay, let's talk about the main issue at hand . " Marked patted his palms to grab the attention: "According to the intelligence reports the barbarians will attack in two days . It will be the moment when we act . "
Rudolph who was sitting next to him asked: "Can we rely get information about military decisions of the barbarians?"
Mark smiled: "There isn't that you can't know as long as you are willing to pay its price . Our consortium lost money and people in the process but it was worth the news . "
The man continued: "In that case I have a question . Patriarch Mark I would like to hear your answer . "
