บท 93: Real Truth

All the dukes were silent. They knew that the origin story differed from what the royal family portrayed. 

The Dukes had a copy of the original at their place but it was confiscated by the Royal Family. It was done centuries ago so no one doubted it even though all the Ducal families knew that there was some hidden agenda behind this.

Duke Garfield's eyes narrowed. "So according to you, the story is far different than what we have known through the centuries."

"Maybe it is." Duke Crawford said in a soft tone as if he was in deep thoughts. "It was said that the founding Dukes had made some sort of deal with the first Emperor."

"Yes, that is why I want Achard to go and understand the truth." Duke Bentham looked down with a sly smile. "I feel like we should not object to it to know the real truth."

Aiden looked at everyone with a smile. He tapped his fingers on the table as he said in a low tone. "Maybe we should discuss this after the ball."
