Kapitel 239: Killing rumours (5)

"Must you always be this way, Luke? It is not in your blood to be a fool so why do you act like one? You are single-handedly spoiling the lineage of Castro kings," Scarlet said, refusing to hold her tongue after Luke spoke out loud. 

They were having a conversation amongst themselves. An unwanted one but still one that didn't need the entire room to know what was said. 

"You!" Luke started.

"Why? I cannot respond when I like but you can speak of him as you like. You're always throwing a fit because I told you that you aren't the one with real power? If you believe you are the one with power, why are you acting like a child?" Scarlet asked.

For years, Scarlet had witnessed the Castros need the Collins by their side. There was a marriage union between the families so the Collins helped more when needed. The Collins and the Callahans were practically the Castro's blades. When there was trouble, these were the first two families called to the palace.
