Chapter 2683Chapter 2683 Keeping Secrets
Ghaylen turned to look at Ebenez. For a moment, he could not tell if Ebenez was speaking the truth.
However, at that point, he had no choice but to believe his words.
Ghaylen could not think of any other possible methods to resolve the situation besides working with
Ebenez.
“I trust you, Ebenez. We'll wait for Ms. Viola to reveal Hosen's true colors during the sect meeting and
regain control over Emerald Cauldron Sect,” Ghaylen said.
“Okay. I'll make the arrangements now. If we work together to help Ms. Viola get back Emerald
Cauldron Sect, everything will turn out fine.” Ebenez then turned to Viola. “Ms. Viola, I'll be taking my
leave now.”
“Thank you, Mr. Erdell,” Viola replied politely.
Once Ebenez was gone, Viola turned to Ghaylen and asked, “Mr. Samoll, do you think Mr. Erdell is
someone we can trust?”
Ghaylen was silent for a moment. “I don't know either, but we have no choice but to trust him now. I
hope that he truly wants to help us for the sake of the previous lord.”
Viola fell silent. Now, their success was dependent on Ebenez.
Once Ebenez was out of Ghaylen's place, a smug smile grew on his face.
Instead of returning to his own house, he headed straight to Hosen.
“Ebenez, it's rather late. Why are you here?” Hosen asked when he saw Ebenez.“Hosen, there's something I want to tell you,” Ebenez replied.
“What is it?” Hosen closed his eyes and leaned back on his chair lazily.
Ebenez glanced at the two disciples at the side before dismissing them with a wave. “Leave the room. I
have something to report to Mr. Holt.”
The few disciples froze, then looked at Hosen in unison.
After all, Hosen was the one they answered to, not Ebenez.
“You guys can leave,” Hosen muttered, waving his hand.
Once the disciples were gone, Ebenez hurried over to Hosen and started whispering to him.
Upon listening to Ebenez's story, Hosen widened his eyes and leaped off his chair.
“Is that really true, Ebenez?” Hosen asked in shock.
“Of course it is. Why would I lie to you? I just came back from Ghaylen's place,” Ebenez said seriously.
Insteod of returning to his own house, he heoded stroight to Hosen.
“Ebenez, it's rother lote. Why ore you here?” Hosen osked when he sow Ebenez.
“Hosen, there's something I wont to tell you,” Ebenez replied.
“Whot is it?” Hosen closed his eyes ond leoned bock on his choir lozily.
Ebenez glonced ot the two disciples ot the side before dismissing them with o wove. “Leove the room. I
hove something to report to Mr. Holt.”
The few disciples froze, then looked ot Hosen in unison.After oll, Hosen wos the one they onswered to, not Ebenez.
“You guys con leove,” Hosen muttered, woving his hond.
Once the disciples were gone, Ebenez hurried over to Hosen ond storted whispering to him.
Upon listening to Ebenez's story, Hosen widened his eyes ond leoped off his choir.
“Is thot reolly true, Ebenez?” Hosen osked in shock.
“Of course it is. Why would I lie to you? I just come bock from Ghoylen's ploce,” Ebenez soid seriously.
Hosen furrowed his brows and narrowed his eyes, a murderous look creeping into them.
“I can't believe Ms. Viola is still alive. No wonder the new disciple Ghaylen took in looked familiar. It's
been years since then. Ghaylen's quite good at keeping secrets, isn't he?” Then, Hosen whipped his
head toward Ebenez and questioned, “Ebenez, why did you tell me about this? The previous lord
treated you well.”
Hosen could not wrap his head around why Ebenez would tell him about this.
If Ebenez and Ghaylen worked together, and since Viola had woken up, it would be a piece of cake for
them to take Emerald Cauldron Sect back into their hands.
Yet, Ebenez had chosen to betray Ghaylen and Viola. It confused Hosen.
“Hosen, you've treated me well too. You let me manage various affairs in the sect, and you even
assigned something as important as the warehouse to me. I know that my good days will only last if I
work for you. If Viola takes over the sect, Ghaylen will become the important figure of the sect. I'm
afraid I won't have a place here anymore,” Ebenez said.
