Bab 121: Family (2)

"Is this really where that girl is living?" Clark looked around at the property someone directed him to as Duke Edgar Collin's estate. He could not believe Alessandra with her ruined face had gotten married and lived in a place like this.

Talk of Desmond's older daughter marrying a Duke reached him last night so he traveled to have a conversation with his niece. Clark practically saw gold as he looked at the large house in the distance and the garden decorations. It looked like Alessandra had hooked herself to a prince.

Had he known Alessandra would have been useful in the future, he would have paid more attention to her and played the role of a loving uncle. He had never been a good uncle to Alessandra and Kate, as he rarely visited them as they had nothing he needed. They were leeching off of Desmond just as he was.
