Chapter 801: Trial and Special Scent
Was there anyone in this world who came out spotless when one dug deep enough?
There could be some, but they would be an incredibly rare individual.
Even so, Davey could tell that the man he saw wasn’t one of them.
The man he was referring to was Duke Neto La Lili. When Davey looked at him, he could clearly see that he was the same type of person as him; that he wasn’t spotless, instead being good at hiding what he’d done.
He was surely a difficult case to deal with. First of all, since he was a renowned noble, even if Davey exposed his true face, there was no way he would receive positive feedback. He also had no reason or place to expose him, especially when he was a noble from a foreign country.
Above all, it was highly unlikely that the clever Neto would have left behind any evidence. Even if Davey investigated him, he knew it’d be unlikely for him to obtain any conclusive information.
Neto was an obstacle to Davey as he promised to marry Illyna, but there were still orders in getting things done. He saw Perserque place the child back in the queen's arms and go out into the outdoor garden, a couple of young men following her. Davey wondered if they were just full of energy and unable to control themselves or if there was another reason. He hoped it was the latter.
Davey stopped swirling his glass to set it down and walked away.
