"Yes, Young Master Eugene."
Even though I hadn't called out loudly, Hassent approached and responded. It seemed he had overheard the entire conversation.
"Head Butler, please forget everything you just heard."
For now, I intended to at least verbally seal Hassent's lips. There was no immediate way to completely silence him.
"Understood."
Hassent replied calmly, as always. I wanted to trust him, but without proper grounds, I couldn't. Hassent wasn't my person. I would either slowly win him over or eliminate him at an opportune moment.

The original story didn't reveal what Hassent truly desired. Killing him? He was a former master assassin, so it wouldn't be easy.
'I'll gift him a wiretap and transmitter like I did with Kyle and monitor him until the right opportunity arises.'
I headed toward the back of the treehouse where Yuria was hiding. As expected, Hassent followed me.
"Young Master Eugene."
