'T-this brat!'
Stefan's eyes widen as his heart nearly jumps in shock.
'What is he giving all this attitude for? We already know your situation!'
The Minor Families have many spies in the Main Estate, and so they are kept abreast of the matters within it. Even though Javier tried to keep this matter hidden, how could he possibly hide it from their information network?
Even walls have ears, and anything said in private could always be picked up by any of the many staff working in the Estate.
It was inevitable that they would find out the truth.
'So what is with this bravado?! We are your only hope, and you know it! So take the bait and stop wasting everyone's ti—!' Right as he is about to finish his thoughts, Stefan's body freezes as he takes one good look at Javier's face.
His calm, utterly malevolent, and expressionless face.
The old schemer feels a sudden chill. His gut immediately sends him a distress call.
Something isn't right.
