The Almighty Lord Caspian

Chapter 811 There’s No Longer Any Hope 

Even an official as righteous as Mark Sheppard was accused of committing a crime he did not commit. When the other higher–ups saw that, they were terrified as they understood why Zane did that in the first place–he was doing this to eliminate people who did not defer to him. 

At this moment, a bewitchingly beautiful woman entered the room. This woman named Harriet Lowe used to be a prostitute, but Zane was madly in love with her, to the extent of marrying her. 

Helplessly and in an attempt to preserve his dignity, Jerry could only claim 

outwardly that Harriet came from a noble, respectable family. She also became Zane’s personal secretary. 

“Honey, Filren is ready to go to war. Our king has also made an announcement saying that Diatoran will face them head–on,” Harriet whispered. 

Zane was shocked. He knew his father as a cowardly man who would not propose starting a war, but now the King had announced that they would be facing their enemies head–on. 

Something was obviously off with that. 

Having a bad premonition, Zane waved impatiently and announced that the meeting would end. Relieved, the other higher–ups left the meeting venue immediately. 

Only after everyone else’s departure did Zane ask, “What exactly happened? Why did they start a war against each other?” 

“How would I know? You should give your dad a call and ask what’s up with that, 

Harriet said. 

Zane nodded and called the landline in the King’s bedroom. The moment the call went through, he asked immediately, “What’s happening, Dad? Why is the King suddenly announcing that we’ll go to war?” 

This call took Avon by surprise. He knew that Jerry had two sons, but he could not tell one’s voice from the other. 

“The King of Filren wants to start a war. It’s not something I can control,” he said helplessly. 

“This war can’t start, Dad! If the two countries go to war, the Four Champions will surpass our family in terms of status. Perhaps they all want Caspian to be

restored to his former post too! This will put us at a disadvantage!” Zane said, irritated. 

“The King is still here with us, so what’s there to fear? Return to the King’s residence quickly. As long as we can still hold him hostage, we won’t need to worry about anything.” 

Avon was worried that he would make a mistakę if he spoke too much, so he quickly ended the call after a few simple sentences. 

“Something’s not right, honey. Watch this.” As Harriet spoke, she played a video of the King’s live broadcast. 

Zane took a look. The King appeared to be energetic onscreen, completely unlike someone who was under control. 

“Crap, our family is done for! Our comfortable days are coming to an end, honey! 

Zane screamed, looking absolutely crushed.

“Huh? How’s that possible? Didn’t you just talk to your dad? He’d surely tell you if something’s wrong.” Harriet noticed that something was not right, but she did not expect the problem to be that serious. 

“We can never go back there. We’ll look for a safe place and hide there. Maybe the person who talked to me over the phone just now wasn’t even Dad. That’s why his voice sounded weird to me!” 

Zane was panicking. He had sensed that something was not right on the phone earlier. He suddenly felt like the Andrews family was in deep trouble. It felt like they were being manipulated by a pair of big, invisible hands. 

“Don’t you have a friend who’s in Astronia now? Perhaps we can seek refuge with him?” Harriet whispered. 

That made Zane somewhat displeased. Harriet had served a plethora of men, including that friend of his, who often sought Harriet out back then. Zane had also heard some rumors that Harriet was having an affair with him. 

Seeking refuge with that friend now was basically equivalent to giving his wife to him, was it not?

When Harriet saw Zane’s expression, she said coquettishly, “We’re in difficult times now. Where has your mind gone to? I’m already yours, so why would you care about other people? No matter what, I’ll only love you and you alone.” 

Zane did not believe in Harriet’s words at all, but it seemed that he had no decent choice at this point in time. Helpless, he could only have his subordinates arrange for his escape to Astronia.

Kelvin, who knew that the Andrews family was about to be done for, was rushing to the airport together with a dozen guards who were also holding Macy hostage. 

“Mort, escort Sherry to my car. The other cars will follow after mine,” Kelvin shouted. 

Macy whispered to Mort, “He’s a traitor now. You have to think it through. If you follow the orders of a traitor, the rest of your life will be over!” 

“Don’t worry, Godma. I’ll protect you no matter what, but we should go with it for now and see what happens after,” Mort said. 

He had been looked down on by many other people, and that was why he felt like Sherry was the person who was the nicest to him. 

Jethro headed to the guards‘ headquarters to treat his wounds. However, when he left, he realized that all the guards were gone. Only now did he realize what had happened–Kelvin had escaped. 

Enraged, he cursed vehemently, “Kelvin, you bastard! I told you such important news, and yet you abandoned me and ran away!” 

Jethro knew that he had to latch onto Kelvin as Kelvin had the trump card named Sherry in his hands. He would only have a chance at survival if he was with Kelvin. 

Without much thought, he rushed to the garage in the basement. At this moment, he heard the sound of an engine revving, which made a grin bloom on his face. 

“Has Kelvin not departed yet?” 

At that thought, Jethro took off into a run toward the direction of the noise. However, when he reached a junction and saw the car, he was left dumbfounded. 

Unexpectedly, the people who exited the car were Jett and his mentees, followed by a large team of Life Force members. Jethro already knew that Jett was actually Caspian under disguise, so he dared not act rashly. 

“Kelvin should’ve gotten away already. Take some men with you and search the premises. Also, seize someone and ask them about the next steps of Kelvin’s plans,” Caspian said in a low tone. 

Sylvia nodded. She was disguised as one of Jett’s mentees, so she had to listen to his orders. 

“You guys, search this place thoroughly!” Sylvia commanded her men

immediately. 

These members of Life Force had disliked the guards since long ago. Naturally, they were happy to see the guards so undignified, 

Upon witnessing this scene, Jethro dared not stay any longer. He turned tail and 

ran. 

Caspian and the others did not spot Jethro. Casplan had assumed that Jethro had escaped together with Kelvin. 

Panicked, Jethro quickly ran to the hidden chamber in the guards‘ headquarters. and closed the door tightly. He was terrified and completely at a loss about what he should do next. Also, he could not just stay here as he would end up dead anyway if he was discovered.
