Kapitel 307: 306 Night Talk (Part 2)_1

The atmosphere in the White family's study was somewhat heavy.

Colin and Scholar Doan sat across from each other in silence.

The only sound was from the faint crackling of the candles burning.

After quite some time, Scholar Doan broke the silence which had become a tad awkward:

"Lord Viscount, I bear no ill-will towards the North Territory. Furthermore, when Duke St. Hilde was alive, he was very aware that I was dispatched to the North by the Royal Family, but he still held me in high esteem."

Colin believed that Scholar Doan was telling the truth.

After all, Scholar Doan had never concealed his identity. He was the second son of the White family, who, in turn, were vassals to the St. Lorenzo family.

Therefore, when he pledged his loyalty to Duke St. Hilde, with the Duke's caution and capability, he would definitely have investigated Scholar Doan thoroughly. Otherwise, the Duke would not have valued him so highly.
