They were here in the first place to meet Roy, so they naturally had to do what they could to help him.
Vera glanced at the other eight fellow Lords as she suggested:
"I think it would be best for us to try to help with Roy's condition as much as we can…"
Lord Jared spoke up, his expression cold.
"I'd have to hold you there, Vera. Why should we go out of our way to help him? What benefits would he give us? I know you said he would be beneficial to our alliance, but that is based on your words.
We followed you here to see this great Lord you boast so much about, but now we are required to go out of our way just to help someone I don't know? I'm sorry, but I'm not convinced."
Vera frowned, her gaze turning cold, as another Lord spoke.
Lord Brandon, who had his legs leisurely crossed on the table, his arms behind his head, sighed.
