"Cedric, that is crazy." Camilla scolded over the video call. 

Everyone had been shocked at Ayanna announcing that Cedric would stake his own reputation just to get Lucius to trust Camilla and Benedict.

"Wait, you're serious?" Ian asked as he sat up.

"Of course I'm serious." Cedric said with a nod as he looked everyone in the eye. "This is to protect our long term interests. It shouldn't be taken lightly."

"Then do this as a last resort, brother." Ayanna told him. "This is crazy and stupid!"

"Cedric, we will do what we can first." Benedict told Cedric with a serious look on his face. "Maybe it doesn't have to go as far as this. Maybe he already trusts us. I mean the death of a loved one is a very big deal."
