Chapter 280: A Culmination
"Sir, we have two pieces of bad news."
As a man raced into the room Alpin Banfi Sr, glared at the man. He’d been watching the play-by-play of Evangeline’s meeting with the union members and he was not very hopeful. He’d made sure to brainwash all the union members, so much so that they’d been ready to attack and not believe anything she tried to say.
But instead of even trying to explain herself, she attacked Gareth Simp and the others, even going so far as to make the others believe that Gareth was suspicious. It made him realize that he had severely underestimated Evangeline. She’d been quiet and not very active in the current politics, letting Alexander Sterling do things on her behalf. That man had fooled him into thinking that she was not as powerful. But now Evangeline suddenly turned to be the hidden ace.
Dam* it! Both the girls were getting difficult for him to handle and this made him angrier.
"What is this bad news? I already know that Evangeline has created problems for us? What else could be there?"
"Sir! Junior Master is in the hospital!" The messenger quickly spoke, worrying about his own safety. Everyone knew that the junior master was the only one the older master cherished more than his life. Even though he had previously been angry at the junior master, he would not take lightly to his son being injured.
Alpin Banfi Sr.’s face contorted with a mix of concern and anger. " What do you mean he is injured? Did he get into an accident? Was he drunk and driving?"
The servant quickly shook his head and spoke with wide eyes," Neither, sir! Junior master kidnapped a servant from the Queen’s palace! That man hit the master and escaped. That is the second piece of news, the master is in the hospital room but we cannot see him as the police are standing guard outside.
"Kidnapped a servant from the Queen’s palace? What madness possessed him to do such a thing?", he roared in anger and disbelief.
