"CUT OFF their tongues then throw them out of the duchy," Yvo ordered Killian while removing the white gloves stained with blood. "And make sure that the fact that they spied on House Woosley would spread. In that case, nobody would hire them anymore."
Killian bowed his head towards him. "As you wish, Your Grace."
He just nodded, then he left the underground prison.
Since he couldn't show up like that in front of Gypsy, he headed straight to his bedroom and took a bath. While dipped in the tub, he couldn't help but remember what the servants had confessed earlier.
["It was His Highness, Prince Lucius who ordered us to spread the nasty rumor about Young Master Yvo and Her Ladyship!"]
["Please forgive us, Young Master!"]
["We can't disobey the First Prince without having to face consequences, so please have mercy on us!"]
The First Prince, huh?
Sorry! The first part was the same scene told from a different POV. I lost the files for Butter Up and Ghoul Duke for today, so I had to rewrite them in a hurry. I'll make it up to you next chapter. Thank you for your understanding. :<
