Zion remained silent.
Stephen interpreted silence as confirmation.
"How long have you known Miss Kiara?" he asked.
Zion responded plainly, "From the moment I was created."
Stephen misunderstood immediately.
Created.
Born.
That would clearly mean house servant. And typically, house servants are those who serve a particular Noble House, and it typically goes through their lineage.
So, Kiara was actually a Noblewoman?
When Stephen thought about Kiara's behavior so far… that arrogance… that greed for gold… that cunningness… that pride… and her high morality of not taking advantage… everything pin pointed to that suspicion.
A fallen Noble house? Is she from that Veyne House, perhaps? he couldn't help but wonder.
He decided to inform his House Lord about his suspicions so that they could investigate her background deeply.
