The next day, the whole city was in turmoil.

Marquis summoned the whole city for an assembly in the stadium where Sam made his demonstration for his weapon shop opening.

Almost all the citizens gathered.

Marquis stood on the stage with a desolate look.

He took a look at all the audience and took a deep breath before saying.

"Yesterday, I found that there are many officials and my second son, working with an evil organisation who operate the illegal prostitution, drugs, assassinations and all kinds of evil deeds.

After looking into the matter and obtaining proper evidence, I personally raided the place and after confirming the truth I executed them immediately.

So, I want to say one thing, those who harm the society and the citizens of the empire, no matter who it is, they shall be executed and I hereby order all the remaining members of this organisation to surrender.

If you surrender, you will be given a chance after doing your time in the jail, if you don't then you better pray that we will not catch you or else, you will be executed on the spot."

After a big applause, he dismissed the assembly and went back to the Marquis mansion.

"How dare you kill my son? And you dare to label him as a part of some evil organisation. You, sick bastard. Did those bitches pillow talk you do this? He doesn't even compete for your position and he didn't even go against that Zeke's business. Why did you kill him?

Is it because, he doesn't benefit you anyway? You bastard."

As soon as he entered his personal room, he was hit by a barrage of words from his screaming second wife.

He didn't know what to say and just stayed silent. He has obtained enough evidence to convince her, but he was also afraid, that if she can bear that heart break. After all, all three kids are closer to their mothers than him and that is even more true in case of the second son.

"Why are you not talking?" *Pah* She slapped him in his face directly.

Only at this moment did he lift his head to look at her face. She is a beautiful woman and so are the two other sisters but of three of them, she is the gentlest one.

Of all three of his wives, the first one is a person who is too wilful and the third one is too scheming. Out of all three, the second wife is the only one who acts normally and now she is not like her usual self at all.

He finally opened his mouth.

"You know me better than that. I might not love you but that is also the case with your two sisters, if I have to be blunt, you three are my liabilities which I cannot get rid of. As for the children, I treat them equally and I take my responsibility as a father.

Don't even raise the question of me being biased or swayed by pillow talk, you should know better than anyone how many times you three have a chance to do pillow talk to even have a chance to sway me.

As for your son's death, I only have one thing to say, he only brought this upon himself. He mixed with wrong people and targeted the worst person he could possibly mess with. If I give you anymore details your heart won't be able to take it.

Just deny everything and live in peace."

He didn't even wait for her reaction after finishing his piece.

He has a lot of things to do and one of them is meeting Sam. So, he sent a messenger to arrange a meeting. It is not suitable for b
