Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1165

After Jacob's thorough investigation, they narrowed the true mastermind behind the treason plot down to a few suspects and started keeping a close eye on their movements. But the suspicion was still just that, and they had no real proof. After Wayne's return to Valken, he had only seen Harvey. He had not met with anyone else or made any visits to the Spencer family. He had gone to great lengths to stay hidden.

According to the latest reports, the private army had been in Stonebridge County. However, they had relocated swiftly and left behind many of their possessions. Yet, where they went remained unknown.

The situation in Valken used to be chaotic, but things started coming together after Wayne returned. Local officials frequently visited Horizon Estate, enjoying lavish feasts and living without a care. Rafael passed the list of names to Salvador.

Still, it was clear that the group lacked a leader. It couldn't be said that Harvey or Wayne were the ones in charge.

After a brief discussion with Rafael, Salvador decided it was crucial to send Yuvan back to Valken. Yuvan's presence was vital to keep the situation in check and prevent the true mastermind from seizing control too quickly.

If Yuvan were absent, it would be easy for the true mastermind to take control of the power and resources available. Once Yuvan returned, however, all the connections and resources he had built up would remain under his control. Any attempt to displace him would require considerable effort.

Salvador issued an edict to Yuvan, informing him that his injuries had healed enough and that it was time to return to Valken.

Yuvan was eager to return to Valken. During his recovery, he constantly worried about the state of Valken and tried to figure out how to mend his relationship with the Spencer family. As soon as Salvador's edict arrived, Yuvan didn't even bother to bid farewell to Ruth. He immediately packed up and left the capital with his family in tow.
