Lambert couldn’t deny it. He simply chuckled and asked, “What do you think?”
The butler maintained a stern expression. “In a short while, Miss Linda will be visiting Citadel. If you have any
affections for a lady outside, it would be preferable to keep her at arm’s length.”
Lambert scoffed, “She’s the fiancée my father chose, not me. I never agreed to it!”
“The value of your opinion is negligible!” the butler retorted.
As Lambert continued walking inside, he abruptly turned at the butler’s words, giving the seemingly respectful

“Because,” Lambert said with a malicious grin, “my dad must despise you as well!”

Besides, we still need to investigate whether she can be trusted.”
Lambert laughed dismissively, full of self-assurance. “With my good looks, she’ll stay loyal. And even if she’s a
spy, I’ll charm her into switching sides.”

The butler simply sighed, changing the subject. “Earlier today, the old master called to inquire about the
collaboration with Zion.”
Lambert’s playful demeanor vanished, replaced by a serious tone. “We can’t make a decision yet. I need to
assess the situation in person before deciding.”
Estelle was settled into a third-floor guest room, complete with a large balcony.
Standing on the balcony, she could survey most of the estate’s grounds and the dark expanse of the sea
beyond.
After spending some time on the balcony, Estelle heard a knock on her door. It was a servant bringing her a
