Chương 54: Fifty-Four

"After I heard about the lineage thing, it occurred to me that my grandfather hadn't originally cared about anything but my dad's money. Later on he suddenly took deep interest in me, and I figured someone was behind him. All that man has done in his lifetime is maintain his fortune and the his line. He quite frankly isn't very smart and him suddenly realizing I would be useful in the future isn't possible. Let alone him realizing he can foster trust with me by making you the bad guy and by spoiling me. He just isn't that bright so naturally, someone else is involved. So from that angle I went and checked the documents. My grandfather's merchant company mainly works in four different provinces that are high yield. But about a year before my father died he branched out to a less profitable province, one that's been keeping an unusually clean record despite being known for a corrupt line the kingdoms been trying to root out for several decades, maybe even a century at this point. That is how I came to this conclusion. I have no doubt a man like the one outlined has every capability to find out my mother's identity and my own. I have no doubt this man isn't at least involved in some way, after all he's always been suspected of conspiracy, I think you will find evidence this time however, especially if you bluff his ex-accomplices. What do you think your Majesty?" I looked at his and he read the paper thoroughly for several long and tiresome moments before turning and grinning at me.
