Chapter 60: Do You Wish to Befriend the Earl?
South Harbor County, Caster Town, the residence of Baron Turner.
The elderly Baron Turner sat in his own living room, both hands resting on his cane, his face displeased as he looked at Bishop Beckett seated opposite him.
“Your Lordship, since matters have already come to this, you might as well tell me directly,” Bishop Beckett said calmly.
“You did indeed make regular purchases of certain medicines from ‘Mr. Griffin,’ did you not?”
“Bishop Beckett, I am receiving you here only because you once presided over my son’s investiture ceremony,” Baron Turner replied irritably.
“And now you come to interrogate me? I have already said it—I do not know any Mr. Griffin, nor have I purchased any medicines! What, do you not believe me?”
“Your Lordship, I truly did not wish to trouble you over such a matter, but we have heard some rather unfavorable information concerning you…” Bishop Beckett said.
“What information? Bring the person spreading it here and have them confront me face to face!” Baron Turner’s face revealed clear anger.
Baron Turner was indeed one of Mr. Griffin Potter’s core clients.
