The massive meeting room was quickly filled with people. They were all in uniforms. Leading them were Caleb and Barrett.

The two of them respectfully approached Ophelia and nodded in unison.

Rather than being taken away by these officers, it would be better for her to meet him and discuss a plan beneficial to the people of Dellanex, so she could maximize herfforts to make amends. Kaden looked at her, frowned and said,
