I Know The Truth!

"I have been waiting for you for a long time, your highness!" 

The cold that was enunciated from his body was hard to ignore yet the eyes of the duke lingered on his clothes. They did look crumpled and worn in a hurry which was just not the trait of his cold son!

"Why? Do you want to tell me what happened in the carriage?" with a straight face he asked in full serious tone to see the flustered face of his so calm son whose eyes flickered as he raised his head to stare at his father.

But there was no embarrassment in his eyes but a cold and forlorn look that stunned William and three deep lines formed on his face!

"Yes! Something indeed happened in the carriage! And I am here to talk about it only!" looking at the gloomy face of his son and his cold eyes, William knew that the news was not a good one!

Yet he stood up with a calm face and walked towards the sofa. Taking a seat comfortably, he poured water in two glasses.
