The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 507 Regrets

After hearing what the crowd said, Richard, Nicholas, and the Stewarts had a look of

realization.

The comments made sense. It seemed unlikely that Caspian could pretend to be a big shot in a ́situation like this.

They finally got the feeling that Caspian had to be a powerful figure.

“Isn’t a senior general the highest military rank in Diatoran? Why does Caspian have five stars on his uniform?” Marilyn asked anxiously.

The crowd immediately gave their responses.

“It’s not hard to figure that out. Maybe the King of Diatoran awarded him with a special rank!”

“Either way, who would dare to pretend to be someone they’re not on such an important occasion? They’d get themselves killed.”

“Didn’t you see what happened just now? General Anderson, a senior general himself, opened the car door for Caspian. All the soldiers stood in formation and saluted him!

“Do you think an ordinary person could receive such treatment? It’s obvious that Caspian holds a higher rank than General Anderson.”

Richard, Nicholas, and the Stewarts couldn’t find any flaws in the crowd’s analysis, so they felt even more dread.

Marilyn was consumed by regret. If she had known Caspian was a powerful figure, she would’ve done her best to curry favor with him. Who would’ve thought that the so–called loser would turn out to be a big shot?

She abruptly recalled all the ways the Stewarts used to mock him. If they had treated him with a little more kindness, the family would’ve surely soared to impossible heights!

Marilyn cursed herself for messing up the one–in–a–million opportunity!

If someone as powerful as him became part of the family, the Stewarts could certainly bask in glory!
