章 203: Never let it go

Hamon stared at Merek, who had suddenly returned to his work without being told to,"Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be with my sister-in-law until they return to the north?"

"I have nothing to do there, and besides I think my work here is already piling up with my long time absence."

"You needn't worry about that, all your work has been taken care of by Oliver. You should go back to the Boxton's." Hamon had an indifferent air around him, but Merek ignored it. This wasn't meant to be a friendly conversation anyway.

"I have placed a replacement for the lady. So you don't have to worry about her safety, nothing will endanger her."

Hamon knew Merek so well, once he made up his mind, there was no going back. He offered him a resigned nod, "Very well then. It's late now, you may leave and start your work tomorrow."
