The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5782

Whenever Sanguine was mentioned, Vera would clench her teeth in hatred. When she mentioned that none of her four uncles and their descendants survived, Vera burst into tears.

Charlie didn't expect Vera's grandfather's family to be so tragic, and he couldn't help but sigh as he said, “In those days, lives were as insignificant as grass and leaves. Countless families that had lasted for hundreds or even thousands of years were cut off in that era.”

Vera clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, saying, “It's all because of the traitor, Sanguine!”

With these words, she showed a fierce attitude that she rarely showed, saying word by word, “The Lavors has been loyal for generations! My ancestors have dedicated themselves to the country, and my father even joined the military, fighting against the Qing Dynasty for half his life, never forgetting to support Oskia. However, Sanguine not only let the Qing army into the pass, overturning our country, but he also killed the king for his own selfish interests. In my heart, he is the greatest traitor in Oskian history!”

Charlie thought for a moment and said, “According to public opinion today, Connell Hunt’s infamy is much greater than Sanguine's.”

Vera shook her head seriously. “Sanguine's evil deeds and malicious intentions are too horrifying to contemplate. If one delves into them, it will make one shudder, far surpassing the likes of Connell Hunt.”

She continued, “Sanguine was stationed in Linix and fought against the Qing army for many years. Among all the Oskians in the world, he definitely ranks at the forefront in terms of understanding the brutality of the Qing army. Yet, despite this, he still let the Qing army into the pass, betraying his country for personal gain, completely disregarding the safety of the people. This shows how wicked his intentions were!”

Charlie nodded in agreement. “I agree with your view on this point. This person is indeed one of the top traitors in Oskian history. What's even more despicable is that he first surrendered to the Qing army, killed the last king, and later rebelled in the name of restoring the Oskians’ rule. In history, it's hard to find a second person like him.”

Vera sighed deeply and said, “Three hundred years have passed since, but I still can't let go of Sanguine’s betrayal.”

Charlie comforted her, “Sanguine has been dead for so many years, and it seems like his family has been wiped out as well. They have received their deserved retribution.”

As for her own family, they had long since branched out under her protection. The core members of the five Military Governor Offices were all Griffin family members. It could be seen that the Griffins were already a super powerful family with a prosperous population. Even if the Rothschild family came, they would probably have to show some respect to them.

But looking at Vera, her grandfather's lineage had been completely cut off more than three hundred years ago, and she was the only one from the Lavors’ lineage today.

What was even more hateful was that for so many years that Vera had been alive, she had been constantly evading Fleur's pursuit and murderous intent. Their situations were simply worlds apart.

As Charlie thought of this, he couldn't help but ask her, “For so many years, while you've been hunted by Fleur, haven't you ever thought of giving her the ring and seeking a peaceful life for yourself?”

Vera said, “I did. When I left Heavenly Lake and went to Southeast Asia, I experienced various hardships along the way and almost died several times. At the most difficult times, I thought about ending it all, but when I thought of my father sacrificing his life in exchange for my five hundred years of life, I dared not entertain such thoughts.”
