Capítulo 87: Solus’ Surprise (2)

After a bit of chit-chat, the Count was forced to return to his daily routine. He had to manage both his fief and the lands that once belonged to her late wife's family. Even with the help of his children, it was still a mammoth task.

He knew very little of the neighboring Milla County, and most of the old retainers were either corrupt or untrustworthy, resenting the Lark household for what had happened to their previous Lord.

Even after four years, there was still a lot to do and a lack of loyal personnel. 

Lark had resolved to split the Counties, giving Lustria to his son, and the Ghishal's lands to his daughter. That way, both had the opportunity to make their spouses marry in the Lark household, allowing them a much ample choice.

Lith could not believe that both the Count's children would have an arranged marriage, while Rena had been able to spend her life with the man she loved. Nobles had an easier life, but even that came with a price tag.
