Chapter 182
The supreme chief priest stepped forward, his gaze unwavering as he looked directly at Kimberly and Theo.
His eyes held authority, his voice stern and unwavering.
"Do you not understand what Steve has done to our kind?
Or do you choose to act ignorant for your personal gains?" His words cut through the room like a sharp blade, igniting loud murmurs among those gathered.
Kimberly and Theo remained silent, their minds working to gauge the atmosphere before responding.
They knew the wrong words could tilt the balance against them.
*This is a delicate situation, we have to approach it with wisdom... We can’t allow our emotions to lead us here* Theo thought to himself.
*I need to step up and put an end to this endless debate, before it turns out into something else.* Kimberly thought.
After a moment, Kimberly stepped forward, her voice calm but firm.
"Steve is a victim of misunderstanding who he was. He was manipulated by forces that seek our destruction.
But now, he sees clearly. He understands, and I believe he will no longer be a threat to anyone."
