Chapter 187

Verdic had made his choice.
Once he had decided, there was no hesitation in his actions. Verdic shamelessly planned to actually live in Raymonds mansion. Until Raymond returned, he intended to continue searching his mansion.
Carynne was speechless, but there was nothing she could do about it. Verdic had called people in, and they were thoroughly searching the mansion. He even brought documents stamped with the royal seal to make it difficult for Raymond to object upon his return.
This ensures that my stay here is not an issue.
Shouldnt you consider it a breach of etiquette rather than law?
Well clean up afterward. If suspicions are cleared, it will be good for Baron Raymond too. And for you.
Verdic dismissed her words.
Carynne was incredulous, but she had no means to rebel against Verdic. And she thought it better to comply rather than resist vehemently, hearing the conversation between Verdic and the other men.
Just in case, I have to say that you shouldnt lay a hand on that lady, Mister Verdic.
Id appreciate it if youd stop entertaining unpleasant thoughts.
