Chapter 98

King Atkinson kept studying Lucian to be certain of how he felt with the news he just told him. Lucian was trying desperately to keep his emotion in check. Probably because he bragged he was prepared for anything.

He used the back of his palm to quickly clean a tear that was forming in his eyes as he swallowed hard from what he just heard.

"Do you need some time off so we could excuse you from here for some time?" King Atkinson asked with concern in his voice as he felt for him.

"No, I am fine, I will be fine" Lucian replied as he quickly changed his facial expression to a serious one from the sorry one he had on his face.

"I will like to know how my brothet died" Lucian demanded with a shaky voice. His voice already gave him away from the way it sounded.

Lord Barak looked at the king to continue with this story this time. As they didn't discuss if they were to continue with the lie about what happen or tell him the truth.
