Count Uman let out a sigh of relief. Colin's attitude made him realize that he finally had a bargaining chip in his hand.
"Of course, I can't give you the will now. You should understand why."
Colin naturally understood that the other party was worried that he would renege after getting the will, so he inquired, "Then how can you prove the authenticity of this will? How do I know it's not something you made up on the spot?"
"The will was shown to me by Derrington, the butler. At that time, I and Knight Louis had just arrived at Lion Roar Castle. I hadn't determined the position of Butler Derrington, so I deliberately threw the will into the fireplace to destroy it in front of him.
Unexpectedly, not only did Butler Derrington not stop me, but he even looked pleased, and that's when I understood that he supported Joyce's claim to the dukedom."
Colin was speechless and yelled angrily, "Since you've burned the will in the fireplace, why the hell are you telling me this?"
