Chapter 322
“Such people are everywhere?
Margaery took a deep breath. She did not know the steward’s name, but she was not afraid of him now. She directly raised Alardus’s gemstone and sneered, “So, do I need to salute the steward, or should 1 knee?
“What do you mean?” The lackey stared at the gemstone, momentarily speechless. “Mark, are you trying to start a réion
The steward frowned, stepped forward, and stared at Margaery. “Why is Lord Sigurd’s gemstone in your hand
He scrutinized Margaery from her face down to her hands.
This person was truly very cautious.
However, Margaery was not careless either. When she disguised herself, she had also treated her hands, so now all three of them had callused hands and wrists from hard labor, and they were men’s wrists.
Therefore, he did not notice anything unusual.
Margaery glanced at him. “Because Lord Sigurd picked me and ordered me to inspect every part of the tunnel daily, to keep each other in check with you all, lest someone tries to fish in troubled waters and ruin Prince Callum’s important affairs.”
She perfectly acted the part of someone who becomes arrogant after gaining power.
Estelle was dumbfounded watching her.
Did she really have this side to her?
In fact, Margaery felt quite awkward, because she was not good at this.
But wasn’t this exactly the role she was playing now?
If they slipped up, the consequences would outweigh the gains.
Fortunately, the steward was truly intimidated.
The steward of the Hall of Divinity was momentarily stunned, but then forced a rather insincere smile and nodded, “I see. Go ahead and investigate.”
In the end, he even followed along, saying, “You may not be very familiar with the lower levels. Let me accompany you‘
“Alright,” Margaery agreed, unable to refuse since she truly wasn’t familiar with the details. “By the way, Lord Sigurd said that the situation on the lower levels needs to be documented and submitted to him. Because I’m not well–versed in those areas. could you please explain them to me?”
As she spoke, she glanced at the steward. “Leave nothing out, or if the report is unclear and blame is assigned, you won’t escape responsibility!”
The steward so angry.
He had been in charge of this place from the very beginning. No matter how he looked at it, once Callum ascended the throne, he would be the one who contributed the most. Yet, just as things were about to be completed, someone appeared to
steal the credit.
But Margaery, perceptive as ever, patted his arm and said, “Rest assured, Lord Sigurd may intend to promote me, but it’s not

Chapter 322
As expected, things were just as the hurt anticipated Since Callium hard es planting for so long for cond be for ting only a single tunnel?
Estelle and Solon were also deeply shocked.
Solon considered himmelf well–informed as a member of Stormshade Hall but Silowing Margery for tee the discovered many things he hadn’t knopen
The three of them all wore grave expressions
Yet none of them exchanged a word.
Estelle was simply afraid of saying the wrong thing and revealing herself, while Solon had nothing much to say.
Margaery, on the other hand, was truly solemn, with a touch of performance, appeating entirely concerted for her ow safety and worried about Callum’s grand undertaking,
The steward of the Hall of Divinity led her, stopping only when they were neatly at the end of the secret passage. He raised his hand and knocked on the wall beside them. Do you hear that?
“At a critical moment, just a little digging here will connect us to the other side. Bot right now, we don’t know who’s in dage of the passage on the other side, or where they’re digging from
He looked at Margaery. “However, we only need to know about this spot. If something really happens and we cant get con of the Hall of Divinity, we’ll just smash a hole here and exit through the other passage
“That’s more like it,” Margaery said with a relaxed nod, though she made sure to commit this place to memory.
The group moved on. Margaery asked, “What about the explosives? Could you take me there as well? Although Lord Sugend came earlier today, he still asked me to come back.”
She offered an embarrassed smile. “Basically, it’s to evaluate me and determine if I’m suitable for the inspection task, so I’ll need your assistance, Steward
“No problem!” Seeing her relax, the steward felt more at ease. “The explosives are over here, let me show you
He did not realize that Margaery was skillfully manipulating his nature.
She first responded with strength and firmness, then, after expressing herself, offered a kind gesture to comfort and win over. This approach made their relationship truly stable.
It placed the man in a position he believed to be safe, not daring to step up, yet convinced that as long as he stayed put there would be no danger.
Because, although the person above was imposing, they also seemed easy to get along with
Margaery combined powerful actions with a compassionate heart.
Soon, the five of them appeared at the end of the secret passage.
There were many people digging ahead, and a room had been opened up at the side, which was specially protected. “This is to prevent moisture.” The steward explained, “If it gets damp, it won’t explode. Let’s go in and take a look”
