Fredrinn chuckled. "By the way, this is Sir Argus. He will be working for the household starting today." 

Alfred narrowed his eyes. "Is your father aware of this?" He asked while staring deeply at Fredrinn.

"Of course. Before coming here, we visited my father's office." Fredrinn responded.

"Are you aware of that man's identity? You should be careful about bringing outsiders into the estate." Alfred muttered while taking a sidelong glance at Argus. 

Fredrinn smirked. 'This old man should have sensed Argus' cultivation.'
