Chapter 2286
August, bring Roanne aside and keep her there-don't let her meddle in this!" Arthur instructed, trying to remain as
calm as he could.
"Come here, Roanne!" August extended his arm toward Roanne in preparation to scoop her toward him.
"Wait a minute!" all of a sudden, Angus stepped forward in determination, having made up his mind. With a swipe
of his arm, he unleashed a surge of powerful energy that blocked August's attempt.
"What is the meaning of this, Angus?" a look of displeasure crossed August's face at this.
"August, Uncle Arthur, I think Roanne is right; there are multiple loopholes in this story, and we can't wrongfully

He, like Roanne, agreed that Yonas's death was a little suspicious, and knowing Leon's character, he decided to
place his faith in Leon after some careful consideration!
"What? Are you also choosing to protect this fellow blindly, just like Roanne is?" Arthur was outraged t hear this. He
knew just how close Angus and the rest were to Leon, and if Angus and Roanne chose to stand by Leon's side over
some other matter, he would have let it slide, but this was his grandson Yonas they were talking about!
Angus and Roanne were both Yonas's blood relatives as well, and he could not believe that not only did they fail to
help avenge Yonas's wrongful death, but they were even choosing to stand on the murderer's side!
One could only imagine Arthur's rage at this!
"I'm not trying to protect him blindly, I'm just telling the truth as I see it! Listen to me, Uncle Arthur, why don't you
let me and Mister Wolf investigate this matter in the meantime and present to you our findings in three days?"
Angus finally settled on a plan that would hopefully keep both sides happy.
With that, he turned to glance at Leon and asked, "What do you think, Mister Wolf?"
"Well, sounds like a good idea!" Leon nodded after some contemplation. Although he was still outraged about being
wrongfully blamed for a crime he did not commit, he decided he was willing to help Angus investigate this matter to
resolve their misunderstanding. If they could find the true culprit behind Yonas's death, he would not only be able to
prove his innocence but also keep August and Arthur satisfied!
This was the least he could do!
’No way! The facts are as clear as day-Leon Wolf was the person who killed Yonas! You're just trying to help him
evade all responsibility, Angus, and I won't let that happen!" August snarled before Arthur could even say anything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was certain that Leon was the culprit behind Yonas's death, and considering how close Leon was to Angus, he
was determined not to accept Angus' suggestion no matter how convincing he might be!
Besides, Leon was not someone to be underestimated; if he and Arthur were to allow him three days to
"investigate", he was concerned that Leon would use this opportunity to escape the region in case he could not find
a scapegoat in time!
If that were to happen, he could no longer avenge Yonas's death!
"August, I'm not trying to help him evade responsibility, but there are things that need to be seen to be believed.
None of us ever witnessed Mister Wolf killing Leon himself, and so we can't just jump to the conclusion that he's the
murderer," Not only did Angus remain calm in the face of August's anger, but he even patiently explained his point
of view. 1
