Chapter 363

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.

They greeted, "Mrs. Sinclair."

""Mrs. Sinclair."

Ophelia glanced around them, and for a moment, she thought Kenneth had come back.

Her eyes lit up for a second. The excitement soon faded.

She said, "What are you doing here?"

One said, "Mr. Sinclair told us that if anything goes wrong back home, our guild members must protect you at all costs."

Ophelia frowned, realizing that Kenneth had known early on what the situation in Dellanex would be like when he was absent. Caleb looked at those officers coldly.

On one side stood officers in dark blue uniforms, while the guild members in black outfits were on the other side.

The two sides formed an opposing stance with neither willing to back down.

The standoff continued like this.

Kaden was initially confident he could take Ophelia away, but now his face had darkened.

He took a deep breath and glanced around at these people, each of whom seemed formidable.

Kaden said, "What do you mean by this, Ms. Spencer? Just a moment ago, you were determined to come with us, but now you have all these people safeguarding you.

"It's alright if you don't come with us today. Sinclair Group will bear the consequences, anyway."

Though this appeared to be a concession, it was actually pressuring Ophelia to make her own decision.

Suddenly, Mark's phone rang. It was a call from the president.
