Chapter 1683
Under Tristan''s lead, they walked to the inner court straight away.
There were not many people in the inner court now; ording to the house rules, if anything big
happened, they needed to worship their ancestors at the outer court first.
There were many antiques ced in the inner court, and they were all Wilfred''s favorites.
Tristan brought Matthew to a corner where there was an old, wooden cab ced there. The cab
was big, and it was empty inside.
"This was my favorite ce to hide when I yed hide-and-seek back in the day. This is the only ce
that can hide people in the whole inner court. I''m sorry for the inconvenience, but we''ll need to hide
here for a moment, Matthew," she said.
He replied to her with a nod, "It''s okay." Then, he entered the wooden cab, and Tristan followed
behind him.
Although the wooden cab was big, when two adults hid inside together, it became a little cramped.
Matthew and Tristan needed to be very close to each other before they could close the wooden
cab''s door.
When she leaned against him, she could feel her body bing feebler and her heart pounding
instantly. At this moment, she had forgotten what she was here for.
Likewise, when he smelled the aroma on her, his heart started racing as well. But almost immediately,
he suppressed his feelings and pulled himself together. After calming himself, he didn''t have any other
thoughts anymore.
After around ten minutes, there were voices resonating from the outside. It was the key members of the
Cosby Familying in.
Even though all the members of the family were here for the family meeting, those who could enter the
inner court and discuss things were actually around thirty people. The others could only wait outside for
the key members to deliver them the news.
There were a few slits in the wooden cab, so Matthew could see the situation outside clearly
through the slits.
Rowan was among the crowd as well. Since he was the biological little brother of Sean, the head of the
Cosby Family, his status in the family was actually quite high.
After the crowd entered the inner court and sat themselves down, Sean stood up from the main seat.
His face was gloomy, and his eyes were red. Everyone could tell that he was grieving and that his
daughter''s death had a big impact on him.
"Everyone..." After saying that, his voice broke. He couldn’t continue his sentence anymore.
At this moment, with his gray hair and arching back, he was not the mighty head of the Cosby Family

anymore. He was just a poor man who had lost his daughter in his middle age.
Seeing that, Rowan quickly stood up and said, "I''m sorry for your loss, Sean." Following him, the others
stood up andforted Sean too.
When Tristan saw this side of her father, her eyes reddened as well.
After some time, Sean waved his hand and wiped the tears off the corners of his eyes before grinding
his teeth.
"How can we live under the same sky as him?! How can the Cosbys be at ease if we don''t make him
pay for what he''s done?! As such, I’ve gathered all of you here today to discuss how we are going to
kill Heath and seek our revenge!" Draмa?ovеls.cом
After he said that, everyone there looked at each other awkwardly. It was obvious that they weren''t
supportive of his idea.
"Heath Solis, the unrivaled swordsman, is one of the Six Kings and the King of Centoufield! Do you
know how much it will cost our family to kill him?"
