Chapter 28

Caleb took a brutal heating. Not a single person stepped in to stop Dylan.

Even the young nobles watching from the sidelines were stunned. 'Marrying both of the Duke of Mowbay's daughters? Who does he think he is?" They thought..

They could tell just by looking at Gabriel's face-dark as a thundercloud-that if Caleb weren't relative, he might not have made it out alive.

Gabriel might have held back, but Dylan and the others didn't.

Cameron and his friends winced at the sight. Realizing they'd better get out before they became the next targets, they hurriedly said their goodbyes to Gabriel and slipped away-leaving Caleb behind.

Once Dylan and the others were satisfied, Sophie forced a stiff smile, jealousy flickering in her eyes. Through clenched teeth, she said, "Alright, Dylan, that's enough. Caleb must've just spoken without thinking"

of them!"
