『What do I do…?』
Katherine now had the power to potentially ruin Cedric's reputation in Gladius City and within the Royal Council.
What made it even more certain was that she had Vritra backing her, and he had nearly as much influence as King Felmus.
"I…"
She was unsure of what to say in that moment.
How would this decision impact her life moving forward?
What would it mean for Cedric?
What would happen to her children?
There was so much she hadn't had time to think through, and she suspected Vritra had planned this all along.
He had placed her in a difficult situation.
If she didn't reveal the information right now and decided to take time to think about it, it wouldn't matter. The nobles would quickly side with Cedric no matter what.
It was a simple strategy that Vritra had used, so simple that anyone hearing the story would easily figure out his motive.
