[Tower of Shame]
HENDRIX wasn't satisfied with Nigel Ratliff's punishment.
Zoe, the daughter and sole successor of House Rochester, was almost violated, and the assailant had gotten away with it with only a slap on the wrist. To add insult to the injury, there wasn't even a trial because his daughter's attacker was a member of the royal family.
He couldn't accept that, so he stormed into the royal palace and confronted the emperor about Nigel Ratliff's light punishment. Until now, he could still remember the talk that he had with His Majesty that day...
["I can't apologize enough for not having the power to give Nigel Ratliff a heavier punishment, Lord Rochester. In the end, he's still my full-blooded brother. As a member of the royal family, he can't be punished for a crime that he, thankfully, didn't commit all the way."]
["You sound like the perfect puppet that you are to the Wilsons, Your Majesty."]
What could the ex-fiancee possibly want to talk to Zoe about? Hmm~
