Chapter 710 The National Hero 80% +10 Free Coins Alger immediately led two bodyguards toward a small building on the northeast side of the Lynch Mansion.
The air in the mansion grew thick with tension.
The grand mansion, bathed in blinding sunlight and surrounded by a chilly breeze, was eerily still.
Only a few startled birds flitted nervously in the distance, their chaotic movements breaking the silence. This magnificent mansion, so beautifully picturesque, now felt vast, desolate, unsettling, and barren.
After the brief shock, the guests began to murmur in hushed tones.
"Steven is the real backbone of the Lynches!" "Without him, where would the once Brighton's most prestigious family be?" "The military leadership of Draconia once honored Steven and the older generation, like Martin and the others, as national heroes and high-ranking officers. He is one of the few senior officers left in the country! "A man of his stature is not someone whom anyone can simply insult!" "If Viola calls Steven out, even Robin, no matter how capable, wouldn't dare to act recklessly in front of a national hero." Vera listened to the surrounding discussions and suddenly felt uneasy.
She knew exactly how powerful Steven's position in Draconia was.
Vera wasn't worried about the tragic fate that might happen to her, but if Robin stubbornly clashed with Draconia's higher-ups for her sake, she couldn't bear to see that.
She quickly walked over to Robin and whispered, "Robin, let's go. I don't want you to be targeted by them because of this petty matter. I'm fine; I don't need all that money." Robin smiled faintly and said, "Since it's already begun, we should be patient and see how it unfolds. Perhaps there will be unexpected gains." Vera looked up into Robin's calm, untroubled eyes. Everything about him was composed and serene, and her previously panicked heart suddenly calmed. She nodded and said, "Alright, I'll follow your lead." Catherine looked at Robin, hesitating.
If Robin was only dealing with people like Viola and the others from the martial society, she wouldn't have been concerned.

How would Robin handle this? 22 1/4 80% L 11:42 Thu, 5 Dec M Chapter 710 The National Hero +30 Free Coins Even though Steven had beca living corpse, unable to speak or sense anything, simply sitting there, he was an immovable giant. This was the true reason the Lynches, despite their decline, still stood firm among the five great families of Brighton.
Steven was the family's greatest reliance within Draconia.
Just as Catherine was about to approach Robin and try to reason with him, Zayn suddenly rushed to her side and grabbed her arm. Catherine, please-I beg you-stop this. When Ms. Luella cearlier, I almost had a heart attack! "Now, Mr. Steven is really being called out. If Robin keeps pushing, no one will be able to save him! "Robin has already gone far enough today. He doesn't care about his life anymore, but we shouldn't keep getting involved.
"Don't you know who Steven Lynch is? "He's a national hero and military veteran! "Even grandpa would treat him with the utmost respect.
"Robin has gone mad. He's picking fights with anyone he meets. He's like a rabid dog! "Do you believe he would dare to challenge Steven? "He's insane! We can't be like him. Our family has a title! "If you keep siding with him, even if the higher-ups don't punish us, we'll lose their trust and be pushed to the sidelines! "Steven has done outstanding things for the country.
"Robin, that fool doesn't know his own place. If he touches Mr. Steven, it would offend the entire nation!" Catherine didn't argue with her brother. She simply bit her lip and whispered, "I know. Of course I do. "But I should still make an effort to speak with him. At least, let's not leave immediately.
"I believe Robin will handle this correctly, balancing right and wrong." Even though she said this, she still didn't know how Robin would deal with the Lynches' ultimate trump card.
Maverick hesitated, also uncertain.
He didn't want Robin to miss out on the chance to lead the elite team in the international tournament due to this issue.
Ithe mishandled this situation and angered the higher-ups, Robin would certainly lose his position as the commander in the upcoming tournament.
If that happened, all their previous tournament plans would be shattered.

"If Ms. Silva still feels wronged, afterward, we can pressure the major Royal Houses to get the Lynches to make appropriate compensations." Robin glanced at Maverick and snorted. "Do I need you to teachhow to do things? Move out of my way!" Maverick was immediately silenced.
He realized he had overstepped.
A man like Robin didn't need anyone to give him advice on how to handle things.
Zayn shook his head, looking at Maverick's awkward expression. He said, "Mr. Maverick, he's so stubborn. No matter how much you try to persuade him, it won't work." Maverick took a deep breath and looked at Elliott and Trent standing nearby.
"Mr. Chandler and Mr. Baxter, you know Mr. Ramsey better than I do. Don't you think it's tto talk to him? Things have already gone too far; it's tto compromise." Trent shook his head and said, "It's not your problem, so of course, you just want everyone to get along.
"There's a saying: if you haven't suffered, don't tell others to be good. If you've suffered, you may not be able to remain kind-hearted.
"You're not Ms. Silva, nor are you Mr. Ramsey. How do you know the best approach to handle the problem?" Maverick shook his head in silence.
Elliott scoffed coldly and said, "If it were you, you might have handled it more aggressively!" As everyone speculated how Robin would face Steven, Alger appeared again.
He rushed toward them, carrying an armchair with two bodyguards.

A military blanket covered the armchair, and an elderly, frail man lay in it.
His thin, withered face was covered in white hair, and his eyes closed tight.
This was Steven, Draconia's decorated national hero.
He was carried to the open grounds in front of the mansion.
The heirs of the Royal Houses immediately fell silent, standing respectfully to the side.
They inherited this etiquette from their forefather.
Whenever a national hero or any other heroic figure was present, they had to show 120% respect.

People like Steven gave their lives and blood to create land, enabling otheSpeaceful to enjoy the present happiness. At this moment, the mansion was eerily quiet and solemn.
Everyone gazed at Steven, who had long lost consciousness.
More than ten years ago, Steven had fallen into a coma, unable to wake up.
Rumors had spread that he had passed away, but Viola had om repeatedly assured everyone that N Steven was still alive, though in a state of recuperation.
Once Steven was settled, Viola looked up at Robin and asked, m "Young man, what kind of explanation do you want from us? You can tell Mr. Steven about it."
