Chapitre 770: The perfect timing

Count Ashthorne had been called to the Council meeting that morning regarding the issue of their next heir. As the head of the committee handling the succession on the throne, the Council would like to know what would be his recommendation.

He paced in his office, holding the report that he had personally written last night. But he was not sure if he had done the right thing. He once again opened the file and reread his words.

He knew he should have consulted his team of experts on the matter but what he discovered was a sensitive matter. He could not simply share such significant information just to anyone.

"Sir, your car is already waiting for you." His secretary called his attention when she knocked at his door.

He quickly looked up at her and smiled. "Just give me another fifteen minutes." The Count spoke gently at his secretary.
