Chapter 207: Future plans (3)

"Should we be concerned by why your brother was poisoned? If your father is Hank Kingsley, I could understand that being a lord would bring him some enemies but why your brother?" Rue wondered.

"He mistakenly consumed poison meant for me. I will pay whatever price you come up with for helping him. Even if you can't find a way to help him," Ian said as too many years might have passed for anyone to be able to help Victor.

"I won't ask you for money. I don't like it when anyone plays around with poisons. My family used them when we were at war and to look into them to find cures. Too many are dying from secretly being poisoned and most of the time, it has to do with wealth and jealousy," Rue said as she had seen this many times.
