William Cole parted with Kevin Lawson and went straight back to Thirteen Hall.
Upon seeing William's return, Minnie Wright approached with her daughter in her arms, "How did it go?"
"I formed a sworn brotherhood with Kevin Lawson," William said, casually taking off his coat.
"What?"
Minnie held her daughter with one hand while taking William's coat and hanging it on a nearby coat stand, her face filled with surprise.
"You formed a sworn brotherhood with him?"
"What happened?"
"Kevin Lawson is no simple man, given your current identity, why would he enter into sworn brotherhood with you?"
William smiled, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a casual sip, "Mutual use, that's all. He wants to use me, and I want to use him."
"So as soon as Kevin proposed the idea, I immediately agreed."
Minnie's eyes flickered as she looked at William, "Kevin Lawson is different from Old Master Anderson and Jacob Davis; he may seem impetuous on the surface, but he's actually quite deep."
