"So long as you do not go against what your father has taught you, you can trust that I will always be on your side."
Farlow said this with complete seriousness, and Jason immediately spoke up.
"Then can I ask you for your help now?"
Jason had an equally serious look on his face as he waited for Farlow's response. Jason knew that going alone into that council room was going to be an absolute bloodbath. Standing up to all ten of the council members would be too much for them, no matter how good their argument was! But if Jason had Farlow on his side, then that would change everything! Farlow was the third seat and one of the strongest members of the council, and Jason was sure that Farlow would have a lot of sway in the decision-making of the council! Farlow could make things a lot easier for them! Farlow also knew exactly what Jason was asking from him, and Jason was surprised when Farlow only gave him a calm nod in reply.
Jason smiled and spoke up in thanks.
