Chapter 235: The Traitor inside the Rivas Family
Outside the guild master’s room, the secretary was still arranging papers for her work. While doing so, she wondered why the envoy from the first prince was there. However, she kept her thoughts to herself, knowing she had no right to question her superior’s business. After 20 minutes, she saw the envoy emerge from the room. His handsome face made her cheeks flush as he glanced at her and offered a warm smile.
"The guild master will be busy for a while, so I hope you won’t disturb him. Please feel free to take a rest for now, miss."
Hearing his soothing voice, she felt her heart calm instinctively and nodded without much thought.
"Alright, Your Excellency."
After that, Aldrian walked away from the guild master’s room. As he made his way toward the exit of the guild, he pondered over the information he had gained during his "conversation" with the guild master of the Information Guild. His face was tense with a frown, reflecting his displeasure. The revelation of a mole in the Rivas family was troubling, especially since it seemed to involve someone his mother would least expect.
When Aldrian thought about how his mother would feel if she discovered the identity of the mole, he felt as though the pain were his own. Yet, it was better to address the problem now than to let it fester and risk greater harm to her in the future.
"First Finger, meet me in my room at my new place immediately," Aldrian sent a voice transmission.
Without hesitation, the First Finger responded, "Yes, Master."
Aldrian sighed deeply. Even if it would hurt his mother’s feelings, it was something that had to be done.

After Aldrian returned to his room inside the mansion, he waited for an hour before the First Finger finally appeared, kneeling before him.
