Chapter 74: Emperor Jai

“I don’t have to tell you what a serious breach this is, and the consequences of such an action.”

“What? What nonsense is this?”

“What’s worse is that your granddaughter was overheard asking her father to kill my wife.”

The look of confusion on her face was instantaneous and she looked her age and more in the few seconds I sat there. “Your wife? What do you mean?”

I didn’t answer but instead got to my feet and bowed before turning to leave the room. Let her sit in wonder and worry. It won’t be long now before she got all the answers.

As I made my way back I felt the weight of all the years gone by finally lifting from my shoulders. After today I won’t worry about my wife.

After today I’d have exacted vengeance for her and we can start on the road to the rest of our lives in peace. I had much to look forward to.
