“How can I?” Lincoln replied patiently, “You took out your frustration on your own man.”“His issue was a long time coming, and we both know that somethings are better dealt with cleanly. No need to draw out unnecessary things,” Tyler replied, his voice cold.“And it came after the incident with Belarnt?” Lincoln pressed, staring intently at the slightly younger man.Tyler shrugged but made no comment.“Master Esteil, your slip is showing,” the older man droned.Tyler’s jaw twitched, but he remained silent.Lincoln sat and reclined in his chair.“Nathaniel’s missing.”“As he should be,” Tyler replied disinterestedly.Lincoln pursed his lips, staring at his young friend.Tyler waited, gazing casually at his sponsor.When the older man did not speak, Tyler picked up the matter that had brought him to the club.
Chapter 41
Lord Kramer blinked at the screen, his complexion very different from when he had mounted the stage.The woman rubbed his upper arm with such possessiveness that no one over the age of eighteen who was in the real hall, or at the stalls around the nation, did not understand what it meant.And everyone knew the woman was not Lady Kramer.The whole world knew Lady Kramer. They did not know this woman. But the woman KNEW Lord Kramer.Edward Kramer staggered back two steps, and suddenly, the screen caught fire, but the audio did not stop.“As I said, all that is required is a few more signatures. With time, I will convince them, and it will all be –”The speakers exploded.The central system, the room controlling the screen and all audio within the hall, experienced a huge power surge, and all tech shut down.In the dark, emergency lights came on as people screamed. Some began to move toward the exit as the fires

Vincent’s gaze shifted to his mother’s drawn face. Her eyes were feverish, her lips trembling. He could see her skull through her thin skin.His mother was a slender woman. Very frail. She spent her days attending board meetings and chairing charity events, drinking tea with other highborn ladies, and attending garden parties. But even those, if they had too much tension, could affect her health.She was from Europe, but most people had long forgotten that. In the whole of Ashrone, only her husband called her Genevieve. Everyone else thought her legal name was Ginnie.“Even if the whole world were to come crashing down, Edward Kramer, could you not have used another?” she roared. “After everything I gave up for you! For YOU! You have the audacity! The impertinence! The gall!”“Ginnie, please,” Lord Kramer gasped.“What? What did you say to me? Please? You sham of a –&rdquo

On paper, and in any other record that existed anywhere in Ashrone, or beyond, Charles Verst was Tyler Varsen’s estranged uncle, who had found the young man after years of searching.It easily explained why Tyler, a commoner, had a wealthy relative, and why, if anyone bothered to look, he also had access to some funds and amenities that should normally be outside his financial bracket.On his drive, he made a few calls and gave a few instructions, then he rode in silence, fighting off the feeling of satisfaction that had filled his chest since earlier that night.It was too soon for him to be glad about anything.The dance had just begun. Now he had to make sure that only the worst outcomes from the scandal that had just been broadcast to the entire country came to pass.Public trust would be shaken, and Edward Kramer must be removed.Even if his family did not want it, the other nobles would demand it.They had

The old man turned back to the group still standing at the top of the stairs.His eyes landed on his son. The younger man held his father’s gaze.They were of similar build and stature, only the younger man, Edward Kramer, had lost some weight of recent.The old man’s hair was full but completely grey, whereas his son’s was mostly blonde. Grey had set into Edward Kramer’s hair overnight.His tan skin was darker than his son’s, and his burly build was from decades of mining all over the world, which he no longer did, but the impact still showed even after over twenty years of retirement.His cold eyes moved to his son’s wife and softened.Lady Kramer curtsied, her lips pressed tightly.“My Lady,” Retired Lord Henry Kramer rumbled. Genevieve Kramer burst into tears and ran off to her room, no longer able to hold the image of one family.Vincent followed after his mother, his dark bl

Tyler’s eyes moved from the envelope to Lady Belarnt.The Lady was staring at the document that had been dropped on the table. She nodded lightly at the retreating man in a black suit, like all the others Tyler had seen from outside his apartment building, her face still facing forward.She turned to Tyler.“Please,” she said softly, bowing her head slightly, inclined downward about two inches from its erstwhile upright position, and holding the position for three seconds.Tyler blinked again.The Lady raised her head, held his gaze, and walked out, the men inside the apartment following her.Tyler stared open mouthed as she left.Even her chair had been left behind.Tyler opened the envelope as he sank unto his sofa beside the center table.It contained three papers and two keys.The first was a promotion letter, raising his rank to supervisor effective the first of the month they were currently

It was not the Jergens family that had caused the problems, but they were carrying weights around their necks because of the Kramers.There was a sharp knock on Emily’s door, and it was opened before she confirmed admission.Her phone was still ringing.“You’re not going to get that?” her father asked calmly as he strolled into her office.“No.”He glanced at the caller ID and nodded.He placed his hands in his trouser pockets and aspirated.“We need a buyout before the week ends.”“Where?”“Kramer Pharmaceuticals.”“How much?”“Ten, or maybe fifteen.”“I’ll have twenty ready.”“Good. There’s a meeting in Italy this weekend. I’ll take it. You stay here. Don’t get swept away.”“Italy?”“I’ll handle it.”“Father –”“Trust me, my dear,” he rumbled, his blue eyes on his daughter’s.Emily pursed her lips. “How is Lord Kramer?” she asked distractedly.Quenti

Tyler jumped as the shards poked his upper thigh, hurriedly pulling out the remnants of a very expensive item he had purchased not three weeks earlier.“What? How did you…? Do you know how much that cost?!” Tyler yelled, moving from shock to anger in seconds.“Less than what I have to offer, young Master,” the large man replied mysteriously.“I said I’m not –”“But you are, young Master.”“Stop that!” Tyler shot back, his anger overtaking the confusion building at the back of his mind.“Are you not the owner of the little auction room at the back of the alley?” the man rumbled, his volume staying the same yet somehow lowering.Tyler froze.He had bought the space the man was referring to less than two months earlier, and no one knew about it, or at least, no one knew he was the owner.Tyler glanced around haltingly.“I don’t know what you’re –”“Young Master, if you have to lie to your friends or your famil

“You should leave Salvena for a while,” Lord Henry Kramer rumbled.“Don’t you mean Ashrone?” Edward Kramer replied sarcastically.“What I mean is you should create distance from whoever is attacking you. Though it is yet to be proved whether or not you are indeed the sole target of this fiasco,” the elder Kramer remarked neutrally.“I will not be bullied by anyone, and definitely not some coward hiding in the shadows!” Edward growled.Father and son were in Edward Kramer’s home office. Ever since the Birthday Party, Edward Kramer had not left the Kramer Estate.His father, however, had been busy going back and forth between the Estate and Salvena city, managing the chaos his son had created.“A coward who not only embarrassed the great Lord Kramer himself, but also sent me a full list of your indiscretions beforehand?” Henry Kramer remarked dryly.Edward glared at his father.“Indiscretions I asked you to explain. A request tha

“My Lord, if I may have a moment?” Vincent stated to his grandfather, while his eyes remained fixed on his father, whose gaze remained on the eldest Kramer.“Speak,” Retired Lord Kramer replied evenly, still facing his son.“My Lord, since you are returned, we should host a dinner for you, yes?” Vincent remarked smoothly, as if there were no tension in the room.Both men turned to him. Vincent smiled stiffly.“After what just happened, you want to host another public event?” Henry Kramer replied steadily.“It need not be public, Grandfather,” Vincent replied patiently, his smile still tight. He had never had much of a relationship with the eldest Kramer, as the man had retired when Vincent was still a babe and never came back to Ashrone, until yesterday afternoon.He had visited his grandfather with his parents, but those occurrences were few and far between. Nevertheless, the youngest Kramer knew well that his father and gr
