Michelle knew that Frederic must be here in an event like this.

Even though he came from a scholar family, the elders of that family were all across Centrolis’ education and legal bureaucracies. There were judges, prosecutors, professors, and chancellors.

All four major families were on good terms with this family.

The crowd exchanged looks and continued watching like they were watching a show.

Zephyr frowned and looked up at him.

“Hey, Frederic, what are you doing!?” Josiah warned softly, “Are you too free? Trying to save the damsel in distress now!?”

Frederic licked his dry lips and looked at Zephyr pleadingly.

“Z…”

Zephyr’s voice was deep and cold. “Frederic, what do you want to say?”

“Z, I just want to plead Michelle’s case for her.” Frederic’s voice was not loud, but his gaze was determined. “It was a mindless mistake on her part. Be the bigger person, and don’t punish her like this.”

Frederic felt difficult. “Z, Michelle just came back from abroad.
