After thinking about Fade's words, Joey then added, "Fade, you're right. However, none of the kidnappers were female."
"Furthermore, if Tiana really did do it, maybe she already knew about it long ago. She could've arranged for backup from the Long family back in the club to ambush you."
"Why would she rush in at the very last minute and allow all those people to die? Especially Tarlo; he's her younger brother!"
After listening to Joey, Fade's brows furrowed.
She was right. It seemed that Tiana didn't know about this in advance because her actions wouldn't have made sense otherwise.
However, he still held his doubts about Tiana. He felt that he seemed to have dismissed something, but he couldn't remember what it was just then.
He had no clue about it, so in the end, he could only shake his head and forget about the whole fiasco. "Joey, this incident will definitely be investigated. By then, just be truthful when the authorities question you." "Don't worry, I'll be with you," he added.
She nodded. "Yes, Fade! I believe in you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of footsteps came from the door. A servant came in and reported, "Mr. Chen, there are two people at the door. They claim to be members of the Clan Committee, saying that they have business to discuss with you. I don't know if you..."
"I didn't expect that they would come so fast!" Fade smiled and then stood up. "Just tell them that I'll be there soon."
An hour later, Fade, Joey, and Lily arrived at the headquarters of the Clan Committee.
When they entered a room that was similar to a courtroom, everyone's gaze immediately turned towards them.
Fade took a quick glance and immediately noticed a lot of acquaintances.
There were disciples of clans like Halston, Kaegan, Kelly, Pluto, and several Heaven Level disciples, and the leaders of the major organizations such as Galeno, Cannon, and Baldrick.
Of course, there were the Long family members, who were glaring at Fade with scarlet eyes.
Hamilton, Mathilda, and Tiana were all dressed in black as they stood across the room, sorrow written all over their faces.
"You murderer. Give me my son back!"
"Fade, I want you to pay with your life."
When Hamilton and Mathilda saw Fade entering the room, they immediately started shouting out of anger.
Fade's expression was cold and he did not avoid their gazes. He stated coldly, "He deserved to die!"
"How dare you!" Hamilton and Mathilda were both infuriated at his words, and their expressions changed drastically. Their breathing started getting heavier, and they wanted nothing more than to attack Fade at that moment.
When Greg ary, who sat on the stage, saw that the situation was about to get out of control, he shouted sternly, "Quiet!"
His majestic aura spread across the room, and the room quietened down instantly. All eyes were focused on him.
Gregory swept his gaze across the crowd and then continued, "Today, we gather here because of the murder incident of Tarlo and the others."
"About this case, it happened..."
Because it wasn't an official trial, they did not strictly adhere to rigorous rules. Gregory quickly gave everyone a recount of what had happened.
The audience listened in silence, their expressions remaining calm. Many of them already knew about the incident.
However, many glanced at Fade as they listened. They knew that he was both powerful and arrogant, but they never would've thought that he would dare to attack the Long family, and even kill their Crown Prince.
