Chapter 282: His Last Wish
Lord Lockhart was stunned by the way Talia questioned him.
Does she realise she has no rights to question me? She killed my son!
But then, he had a rough idea of what happened between her and Raymond Sinclair. It was terrible. He can say with an honest heart that he is glad Raymond didn’t succeed in what he had planned.
He died... So what? He deserved it.
She was stupid to go to the Sinclair mansion alone, considering their family history. But then... It was his hunt that kept her there and eventually led to her fateful meeting with Ray.
He doesn’t have daughters, but he wouldn’t wish that happen to any woman- even his son’s killer.
No... It was still the Sinclair’s fault for not protecting the girl they gave refuge to, knowing how twisted Raymond is.
That day... Even still it gives him immense pain.
The Council gathered and he watched most of the nobles hiding their happy grin while they said their condolences to him for losing his heir. They wanted him to avenge his son but their delight they tried to hide, pricked his heart.
He was aggrieved and he wanted vengeance. He doubted each and every one of them, even Brunton. But Brunton wouldn’t have to use his only granddaughter for killing and so Brunton was in the bottom of his suspects list.
But he was sure in his heart that these nobles maybe responsible for what happened, when he observed their expression. He wanted to properly investigate.
