The Matriarch had already made all the deals she need to make,made all the moves she needed to make. It was no wonder she had kept quiet even as the elders bickered among themselves. Judging on the look from his brothers, or at least one of them, half the elder council were in on this.

His grandmother could not control Cole, and frankly speaking neither could she control Kaito. But their father was her own son, and while all of the recent drama that has happened should be enough to spoil their relationship, she was looking past that and looking to the future. She has messed up two generations and had moved on to the next. Cole\'s father was not the target…. his nephew and niece were.

A unified family meant that she would have the chance to look after the twins, to indoctrinate them and poison them from young. Of course Cole could just be speculating, to him there wasn\'t anything good that his grandmother could do. But this…..this was beyond ruthless even for her. In one fell swoop she removed the power and influence of her husband, reduced the importance and even practically disowned her grandsons from their birthright and cemented her own power and authority.

"Honestly I don\'t know whether to be impressed or scared." Tehila said besides Cole, but she was still loud enough that everyone could hear her. But Cole could not help but agree with her. When everyone else was here playing politics his grandmother was three steps ahead.

"Sister I do believe It would do my dear husband good to take time away from all of this drama. We all need to come together, to reflect, but I am afraid I will have to disagree with you. You see my part of the family is partly responsible for the trouble we all find ourselves in. We don\'t need the leadership, we can admit when we have made a mess of things.

So we will fix it, we will ensure that the family is secure by dealing with all of the enemies currently closing in on us. After us I believe I\'ll take my family and leave the Night Clan behind forever. Exile is a mercy, we\'re not so thick skinned that would remain here to lead after everything that has happened.

My husband and I have discussed this at length. We will leave taking nothing of the Night family with us. We will sell our shares to anyone of you or people outside the family that would be willing to buy it for the right price. I trust and have faith that between Cole, Kaito and their aunt, with the help of the rest of you we can secure our family\'s rich history and future. I humbly apologize for everything that we have done, please forgive us."

It wasn\'t just politics, no this woman had a flair for the dramatic that was unmatched by many. This was a nest of snakes, anyone who bought her act was a complete fool…. of which Cole was sure there were many. But in the end she was playing her own angle and she had corned everyone quiet well. The elders that Cole thought were her allies were looking at her in shock while she knelt down with her head bowed dropping fake crocodile tears.

"Lady Shion please, you don\'t need to kneel to us, we are all family here, I\'m sure we can deal with this and not have to resort to losing any member of the family. We need each other to survive and Exile is too harsh a punishment is it not?" Cole\'s Grand uncle asked, while his sister kept a hard edge to her face as she glared without holding back at The Matriarch."

"We have made our decision brother in law, in fact we already have taken measures. Our stocks has been listed and a bid is currently going on for it right now. As soon as that is done with, we will launch a coordinated strike against our enemies and then we will leave and take our trouble with us."

Tehila was using all of her willpower to not burst into a wild and raucous laughter. The Matriarch was screwing everybody, and even it was still a play. Tehila could see it clearly even though Cole could not see it yet, after all she had learned at the foot of this woman from a very young age.

This was a peace offering to Cole, she was removing them from the Night family as a whole, condemning them as they would definitely not have the shield around them that is the \'World Breaker.\' there would be no safe place for them as Cole would definitely not accept anyone of them close to him. He would be under no obligation to help the night family and would be free to do as he pleased...Tehila smirked as she got a notification from her neural dome….in it were contracts for both she and Cole to sign…..The Matriarch was signing over all her assets to the both of them. Cole noticed, smiled and said.

"Well ain\'t this a bitch"

The matriarch had put all her cards on the table for a chance at reconciliation. She knew flowery words would not move Cole, neither will money, he already way too much than he knew what to possibly do with it. Not what Cole liked and would respond to was power, it was a character flaw of his that perhaps he had not noticed yet….Cole is a power hungry son of a bitch. And if you offered him power…..odds are you just became the man\'s best friend.

"Well Played…..Oba-san".
