He quickly walked away before someone discovered he was eavesdropping on a private conversation. He did not want his grandfather or Count Thomas to know that he had overheard their top secret.
It was a piece of information Count Thomas and the people concerned would not want the others to know for sure. But what about him? What would he do with it now that he knew about it?
"Fuck!" He still could not believe it. He would never consider it if he had not heard it with his two ears. It was just too impossible. But then again, that was not the word to describe it. Maybe the better word was unimaginable.
Would he keep it to himself and pretend he did not hear it? He doubted, knowing such knowledge was power. He guessed he would have to think more about it. For now, he would guard the secret.
Thanks
