Chapter 4679

"Your Majesty, I think Mr. Adrian is utterly disrespectful. His demeanor shows no regard for proper decorum," one of the ministers said hurriedly. "Even if he can win battles in the future, I fear he will be uncontrollable," he added, casting doubt on Adrian's character. King Basil met the minister's gaze calmly and replied, "If you could win battles as he does, I wouldn't need to control you either. What do you think of that?" The minister froze at these words. He took a few timid steps back. The rest of the court fell silent, realizing King Basil's complete trust in Adrian. To him, it was as if Adrian were not an outsider at all. Many in the court couldn't understand King Basil's reasoning. What if Adrian betrayed Ciawales in the future? How would they handle that? As these concerns swirled, Renee softly reassured, "Father, please don't worry. I firmly believe that Mr. Adrian will weather all storms and return victorious." Her words reflected her absolute confidence in Adrian.
