His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 2462

After Abelard finished, Thurl looked at Fade and said, "Since the matter related to Jaston has been settled, can you pick which Martial Hall you want to join now, Fade?"

Fade replied, "About that, there's still some unfinished business."

"There’s more?" Thurl asked.

The other chiefs' expressions changed slightly, as if they were a little impatient with Fade's dawdling.

Regardless, Thurl still asked, "What is it? Tell me."

"Thank you, Mr. Thurl!" Fade thanked him with a cupped fist. Then, his gaze fell on Abelard once again.

"When I was taking part in the assessment on the inner island, my team leader, Mr. Lou, was biased against my junior because of the Jaston incident."

"Because of that, we got into an argument and I switched over to Mr. Moo's team. Since then, Mr. Lou has held a grudge against me."

"Fade, what nonsense are you talking about!" Abelard frowned and interrupted him coldly.

"I'm not talking nonsense. There were many other team members who can attest to the situation." Fade said, "Of course, that's not the point."

"The point is, while we were at the Yuwen family's home, and I was trying to attack Jaston, Lucio kept stopping me."

"Moreover, I had already explained that Jaston was the killer, but Mr. Lou kept denying it. He wouldn't let me touch Jaston even though he knew he was the culprit. That's because Jaston was his disciple, and a team member of Poison Cloud Hall."

After saying this, he lowered his tone and said aloud, "As a member of the inner island and the leader of the team, I can understand if he is biased. However, when it comes to life and death, how can he still protect the murderer? This is a clear cover-up."

"For this, I request for Lucio to be punished."

His words caused an uproar among the chiefs, and many of them frowned.

As for Abelard, naturally, he was very riled up. He pointed at Fade and shouted, "Fade, don't push your luck. Poison Cloud Hall has already let the matter of Jaston's death go, yet you still want to go after Lucio? What do you think you are doing?"

Fade said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that, Mr. Abelard? Jaston tried to kill me, so I killed him instead. It's what he deserves. How is it related to Poison Cloud Hall's forgiveness?"

"Do you mean to say that he should have a lighter sentence, or even be forgiven, just because he's from Poison Cloud Hall? Even though he's a murderer?"

"You..." As this concerned the Hall's reputation, Abelard did not dare to respond carelessly. He pointed at Fade and shouted angrily, "You are being unreasonable. The matter has already been settled. You are taking advantage of the opportunity to seek revenge."

"I merely requested punishment for someone who tried to protect a murderer. Does that sound like a personal vendetta to you?" Fade retorted.

Abelard stated firmly, "You... Anyway, there's no way you can punish Lucio!"

The reason why he was so protective of Lucio was because Poison Cloud Hall's reputation was at stake. Secondly, Abelard and Lucio were relatives. As Lucio was his nephew, he naturally wanted to protect his own family member.

"Enough, stop arguing." Thud's voice silenced the scene.

Then, he looked at the other chiefs and asked, "What do you all think about this?"

Hearing this, their expressions changed. They didn't say anything, and their gazes all looked over to Veda. After all, this matter was directly related to him.
