Chapter 2007


    Zeke insisted, “I didn''t go to Mr. Andres'' housest night with Yazmin. We went to a different ce.”


    “Then tell us where you did gost night with Yazmin and what you did there.” Jeremiah crossed his


    arms.


    Zeke was speechless.


    His gut was telling him it would be a bad idea if he spilled the beans.


    If the n members knew Yazmin wanted him to elope with the Holy Maiden, both women would face a


    terrible fate.


    Staying silent was the best option for him.


    “Nothing to say, eh? I don''t think we need to talk to him anymore, Mr. Jeremiah. The truth is right before


    our eyes, so let us just capture and punish him,” Peter proposed.


    Jeremiah waved his hand. “Take him down, people.”


    With that order, the crowd charged toward Zeke.


    Zeke simply stood at his spot, unmoving. He viewed them as nothing but harmless ants.


    Just as he was about to release his energy, a cold, feminine voice rang out in the open. “Everyone


    stop!” N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    It was the voice of Erwen!


    The Holy Maiden was only second to the n leader in terms of power. Hence, her words still carried a


    lot of weight.


    The crowd promptly stopped, so Zeke didn''t release his energy.


    Everyone was surprised to see the Holy Maiden walking out of his room.


    It perplexed the n members as she was well known to be a celibate and disciplined woman. It didn''t


    make sense that she would be inside a man''s room this early in the morning.


    They all knew that the Holy Maiden would never stand within a meter of a man, much less go into a


    man''s room.


    Jeremiah''s tone carried a hint of reprimand. “What are you doing in his room this early in the morning,


    Erwen?”


    Instead of answering his question, Erwen approached Peter and took over Mona''s body.


    Even though she was drowning in sorrow at that moment, she still defended Zeke. “I can prove that


    Mona''s death has nothing to do with Mr. Williams.”


    The crowd erupted into chatter at her words.


    “You''re the Holy Maiden of Muraco, Erwen. You should be aware that you must take responsibility for


    what you say. Don''t spout nonsense if you don''t have any evidence!” Jeremiah warned.


    “I do have evidence!” she said as she examined Mona''s body.


    “You have evidence? Good. Then show us your evidence. If it''s reliable, then I''ll dere Zeke to be


    innocent. Of course, if you fake the evidence with the sole intention of protecting him, then I''ll have to


    punish you ording to Muracows.”


    “Zeke didn''t go to Mr. Andres'' house with Yazminst night. They were in my room because I ordered


    Yazmin to bring him over.”


    The n members stared at her in shock. “You brought this man into your room, Holy Maiden?”


    “Oh my goodness! How can you let someone like that into your room?”


    “You... Have you forgotten that you''re engaged? It''s almost time for you to marry Cain!”


    Jeremiah waved his hand to silence the crowd before speaking with a serious expression. “Even if he


    went to your roomst night, it still doesn''t prove that he''s innocent. He could''ve killed Mona after


    leaving your room!”


    She stayed silent before admitting, “I was with Zeke the whole night yesterday, so he didn''t have the


    time tomit the crime.”


    That sentence was like a bomb that had been dropped straight into the crowd. The n members were


    appalled.


    Not only did Zeke enter the Holy Maiden''s room, but he also stayed with her for the entire night!


    The Holy Maiden was no longer holy!


    She, the goddess in their minds, had been tainted, and that was enough to make a few of the n


    members break down.


    Zeke didn''t expect that she would be willing to sacrifice her reputation in order to protect him and


    Yazmin.


    The Muraco n saw her purity as more important than her life, yet she was willing to protect them


    both by iming that she had been sullied.
