"His Majesty the King has already acknowledged Catherine's right to inherit and even sent the Knight Order with his congratulations."
The Empire Minister, Oppa, who had been silent on the side, suddenly spoke.
Although he disliked Lian, he despised Mary even more.
He was a loyal subordinate of Augustus, and all of Augustus's staunchest followers detested Mary.
They had even proposed that Augustus launch an attack on Mary, but all such proposals were rejected.
Mary glanced at Oppa, who raised his chin arrogantly.
Because he felt he was representing Augustus Frank, the supreme leader of the Empire, how could he possibly bow his head to Mary?
"Grand Priest Kosem also personally gave Catherine his blessing just now."
Oppa added, implying that the Church Court also stood with Catherine.
The color drained from Lorne Jackson's face. He had a faint, ominous premonition.
"Oh? So if everyone acknowledges Catherine, then Lorne Jackson must be the hypocrite who forged the document."
