Chapter 85: Let Them Grow
Peggy curved her lips. "I can’t answer that. I believe what he told me. Besides, Caden decided on it. He didn’t even ask me or his father."
Alora crossed her legs and put the teacup on the table.
"I always wondered how your fake father became the ultimate master of all those notorious clans. His madness was way too cruel. And he’s too old for this. He already tried to destroy the royal family a few times, but it always end up the same. He always lost. But never stops." Alora commented.
"He’s the kind of person who would never accept defeat. This is his game. He started it so he would be the one to end it." Peggy answered.
Alora let out a hollow laugh. She gave Peggy a long dead stare.
"Your son would be the end of him."
Peggy frowned. "What do you mean? He didn’t even know Benjamin’s location."
"I just know."
"Is that the reason you still allow Alira to be his fiance even though you found out he’s the Boss of the Forelli Clan?" Peggy asked.
Alora took another sip of her tea. "Alira is both obedient and stubborn. She would follow the rules if it’s necessary. But she would not listen to anyone if she knows something was wrong. Even if we cancel the wedding, do you think she would let it happen? And I’m sure Caden would not agree with it."
Peggy chuckled. "You are like her."
Alora shook her head. "She’s stronger. I am strong because of my alters. They became my shield. But Alira doesn’t need that."
