Damien returned to the estate and sent for the family doctor to visit in secret.
He had calmed down from the events of the day before but remained restless with Hayden still being alive. It bothered him that justice had not yet been served.
The doctor arrived quickly, as a call from Damien was never one to be late for.
"Mr Whitefield," Damien said, looking away from the window in his study. "How wonderful it is to see you."
Michael Whitefield, the family doctor of the Hawthornes, bowed his head. "It is also wonderful to be in your presence, Lord Hawthorne. I am your humble servant."
"Please, come forward and take a seat," Damien said, motioning to the chair before his table. "I assume you know why I have called for you."
Michael pushed his spectacles up after he sat down. "I do, Milord. I paid special attention during the visit to Lady Camille's home. I had to put her husband in a good position before the court arrived."
