Chapter 15: Outburst
Shortly after Marco made his exit, news sure quickly spread across.
Despite Leonard’s outburst being at his own palace, the news managed to spread about his discord with Marco.
"House Lawson is really in shambles."
"They have a Crown Prince, but the house is in disharmony."
"Well, this Crown Prince isn’t qualified anyway."
As the gossip continued, some of the servants failed to detect a person creeping behind them.
"Interesting, may I ask why the Crown Prince isn’t qualified?"
"Well, naturally it’s because—" Before the servant could continue his words, he suddenly found the voice to be very familiar.
The servant swallowed a mouthful of saliva and slowly turned his head around.
As soon as the servant realized who raised the question, his face turned extremely pale. His legs were also shaking, almost as if he could collapse at any moment.
The nearby servants were also petrified on the spot. Almost immediately, they all went on their knees and pleaded for mercy.
"S-Sir Reed... we didn’t mean to gossip about the Crown Prince."
