Chapter 138

 Matias Point of View

“This time I’m not with you.”

“Although you sound confident, I have to second Piero. Your plan does sound wonderful but it also has many loopholes where you can fall in the grave you dug.”

Both Piero and Bria expressed giving me their solemn and doubtful look. They have been in the field as lawyers over decades of time and have good eye for setting and detecting the traps.

Hearing them express their doubt over my final desperate move, the air of confidence around me lessened. They are not wrong but neither am I.

If only I can just kill Arsenio and get this done with but after the assassin of his parents, even as simple as a cough catches him, people are ready to point their finger at me. It is more of a reason I chose to win the throne by commercial setup rather than going to it with a royal status.
