My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness novel Chapter 504

The way Anson had changed tracks made Timothy feel betrayed.

“It’s too early to say who might regret things at this point.” Anson only smiled in response.

In the past, he had used the Bones family’s influence. But he had to make an immediate decision here.

There was no way the Bones family could compete with the leader of the Martial League.

Dustin might become the official leader of the Martial League with the power of the Martial League’s Supreme Token. When it was used, the Bones family would have to obey any order given.

Anson swept his gaze over the assembled crowd and started to manipulate his pure energy.

“As the Superintendent of the Martial League, I am making an official announcement on its behalf. I am retracting Mr. Dustin Fox’s status as a prime level criminal. The Martial League has determined that… he is innocent!”

With the power of his pure energy, his words boomed.

Instantly, everyone reacted dramatically.

“Anson Cavanaugh, you don’t have that kind of power!” Timothy roared in anger.

“Superintendent, the determination of a prime level criminal is done through an official discussion by the Elder Council of the Martial League. You alone cannot retract Dustin Fox’s status as a prime level criminal!” Lord Barbenheim stated.

“You are overstepping your bounds, Superintendent! Aren’t you afraid that you will be punished by the Elder Council?” Elijah asked.

Everyone gathered was locked in a hushed discussion about what was going on.

However, Anson did not seem bothered by their questioning.

“Naturally, I will report back to the Elder Council. They will surely approve of what I’ve done. The Martial League will soon put out an official statement.”

Still, that clearly did nothing to appease the crowd.

“Anson, I will be writing a report about this and presenting it to the king. His Majesty will be the one to determine whether you have overstepped or not!” Lord Barbenheim was incensed.

Anson grinned but did not respond to Lord Barbenheim’s threat.

“If you want to complain about me, Lord Barbenheim, do go ahead,” he said indifferently.

Lord Barbenheim was insulted by this, and his face darkened.
