Kill Him Too

"And you care about the death of your daughter?" he tilted his head as he asked such a cruel question with a warm smile on his face but the same could not be said for the count whose face turned red with embarrassment!

"What do you mean? You are forgetting your place!" he roared as his fists hit the table with a bang and the glasses on the table shook with the pressure!

"Oh, you do not need to mind so much. It was a simple question and was part of the investigation. After all, I am here for that only!" as if he had not noticed the angry eyes of the count, he continued to reply softly and warmly like they were having a good chat.

"Investigation, you say? What kind of question is that? Of course, I love my daughter!" he replied with a displeased look on his face but Alex just nodded nonchalantly.
