Chapter 2080: Framed

At this moment, Reuben also heard the commotion outside. The sounds were faint but getting closer. He widened his eyes. How could this be? He had only told his confidant about coming here because he knew Grizela would never agree. So, he had to keep it from her.

"Those aren't your people outside?" Reuben glanced at Clint.

Clint shrugged slightly. "Obviously not. My people wouldn't come up without my orders, and I haven't given any."

He gave Reuben a sidelong glance. "So, who else knows we're here tonight? Who did you tell? It couldn't have been Grizela. So, who was supposed to meet you?"

"Azuma." Reuben no longer concealed the truth as he sensed something was wrong. "Azuma originally served my father and later me. I..."

Clint sneered, interrupting him. "Idiot, he was bought off long ago."

Clint frowned deeply. "Useless fool."

He pressed his satellite system for an emergency call but didn't know how many people had come or if they had already controlled his men at the foot of the mountain. They needed to buy time for reinforcements.

Reuben was stunned and embarrassed but quickly grabbed his phone to call for help from the palace guards. But there was no signal.

"It's too late; communications have been cut off." Clint clenched his fists. "Thinking of calling now is useless."

At that moment, the door was suddenly forced open from the outside.

Reuben instinctively moved forward to grab the intruder but was shocked when a woman stumbled in, dirty and covered in bloodstains on her chest.
