Edgar couldn't believe Alfred had answered honestly. Had it been anyone else, Edgar would have sent them out, but Alfred was a long-time friend and father figure. "I am not. Please refrain from saying such a thing if the guest is to arrive. She might become the lady of this house."

Luke stood up to stop Scarlet from doing as she pleased but then he thought of what would happen should the two of them fight. The Collins would be against the Castros and then there were the Callhans which was a family of knights which would march to his gates for harming one of their own.

"I know what I offered you but we are sort of family. Remember, Penelope Collins-"

"Before what happens? What do you think will happen to father for you to need to be prepared? We can share. I don't need everything. What is the use when I feel like I am dying every day? I just want to see my brother sitting with us at dinner. Is that too much to ask for?" Victor asked, frustrated.

"I am useless," Victor whispered.

Victor wished the conversation would end as all he wanted was a peaceful night at home. Why did Ian's return have to cause this much drama? So many years had passed so why couldn't the hatred go away and Ian be accepted?

"I think it was the work of my father and the Henson's that came before you. You weren't the one to start the army our family has. I respect you for all your achievements, but I love my mother. Anyone who hurts her will die by my sword," Liam warned.

"Again, it was a simple task that mother asked her to do, but since you brought up my mother, do you mind telling me why her mood changes when you come around?" Liam asked.

Ian smiled as that was what he enjoyed. Where would be the fun if Scarlet made it easy?

"I will pay them both a visit when I have time. It's been so long since I saw any of the Callahans. I am going to rest in my bedroom and then do a little bit of work later. I don't want to be disturbed unless it is important," said Scarlet.

"My family wants for the Castros to be safe," Kenneth answered. Again, there was nothing he wanted from this. He would be going against what he swore to and the type of man he wished to stay if he asked for something from the king or queen. "Hazel is like family to me. A second daughter with how much she has been in my care."

"Milady, I just remember why this mansion seems a bit familiar. There were murders here in the past," Harry said, placing his hand in his coat to touch his gun.

"Was it truly out of my control? I had been so focused on Lynn's death and ate later than I was meant to. I wasn't getting enough sleep as I normally do and I spent a lot of time touring the gardens," Hazel said, listing all the ways she might have put herself in this position.

"Scarlet. Good that we know each other's names," Ian replied.
History · Violet_167
"Right. I will try to remember the name in the future. Now if you will excuse me," Ian said, taking the things he ordered from the servant who returned. "I have a beautiful woman awaiting me. Oh, it only makes you look a fool to be getting so close to that man and his mistress. It was interesting meeting you, wife of a Collins."

"Before Ian's return you did not think about Victor's health," Layla interjected, furious that Victor's health was coming up now. Victor was doing well and needed to be applauded for it. "The doctor says this is the best he has ever been. We should be finding him a wife right now. Scarlet is more suited for Victor."
