At Lady Parthia's suggestion, Alexander was quick to nod to show his support.

"Yes. Lady Parthia speaks words of wisdom. We should try our best to make Miss Linda comply. Once she abdicates, and Lady Miranda is claimed as the family's head by the elders, we can then slowly sit down with the Heeat family and come up with a suitable compromise." The man was quite expectant of the results, and ended the proposal with,

"Perhaps we can even agree to let Qunetin take over the family once he comes of age."

Alexander slanted his eyes toward Lady Miranda as he finished, hoping to see a favorable reaction from the lady.

They had discussed this exact plan before, but before they were too 'poor' to afford it.

But now that they had much more valuable chips, it made Alexander a lot more hopeful about its success.
