Chapter 2957 The Beneficiary
- Before Delmont caved to Matthew, he'd mulled over these scenarios. As Thorneville's leader, he grasped the village labor's profit dynamics. He'd even speculated on which faction would surface first after Matthew's Night Vine decree.
- Once, Delmont wouldn't have dared provoke these folks, no matter his courage. But the circumstances had shifted dramatically. Matthew, vice president of both alliances and Cathay's revered healer, loomed large. He'd taken down General Weaver, backing Delmont now. He craved to root out troublemakers and deal with their village-harming ways.
- So, when Sage's true intentions slipped, Delmont couldn't help but smirk. Despite his disdain for his sworn brother, he kept his cool, flashing an even brighter smile.
