StarNovelChapter 1683 Neil lowered his head, trembling in fear. He glanced at Elijah pleadingly." Mr. Young, please help me. | did what you all told me; I didn't do anything wrong." "Mr. Stuart, it was my decision, not Neil's. Punishif you want, but leave him out of this." Elijah closed his eyes, preparing for Xavier's attack. He had expected such a reaction when he made that choice. Stefan and Renee had both been on the verge of death, and Elijah had chosen to save Renee because he knew that was what Stefan would do. If he chose to save Stefan and lost the dragon's saliva, he would have lost the chance to save Renee, and Stefan would have suffered even more. Elijah didn't want to see Stefan have such regrets.
"Elijah, you're Stefan's most trusted subordinate. How could you betray him? Why?" Xavier's fury turned into confusion. He knew Elijah's loyalty towards Stefan was stronger than Xavier's friendship with Stefan; Even if everyone had abandoned Stefan, Elijah would never do such a thing.
"| did it because | knew that Mr. Hunt would askto make that choice. Plus, | believe he's capable of handling the villagers," Elijah confessed honestly, but now, he wondered if he had been too optimistic. After all, the villagers in Dragos were beyond the reach of the law, and their mentality was quite primitive because of their location.

"That's right!" Leia immediately echoed Quinton's words. "Why don't you go save Stefan instead of picking fights here? Quinton is much better than you in that aspect." [x "How dare you!" Leia's words had bruised Xavier's ego, and he refused to admit defeat. He immediately picked up his phone to call his men. "All of you will see who's truly capable here!"
