Those from the Welch and Swanson families could no longer stay calm. They had planned and schemed for so long but never expected that the Langford family, the head of the eight great families, would support the Camrons.

“H-How is this possible? Why would the leader of the Langford family show up here?” Eleanor’s eyes widened in disbelief.

That was Ethan, the leader of the Langford family! He was a powerful and formidable minister of the imperial court. Known to be haughty, he never formed alliances with others.
