We stan Lord Blackburn in this house

When Sam came back, he had good news. He had made a significant dent in the work left behind for him. So much so, that the person who had been sent to monitor him, but wasn't allowed into his chambers, had gone off to let the Duke know about his efforts. 

Cass wondered if that meant that they were going to report everything that had happened to Cass recently, but he didn't really care. He was sure that Duke would actually be ecstatic if he died. He'd tried to replace him so many times already, and also kill him, so now it wouldn't make a difference. 

He had no idea that the grandson he wanted to get rid of was, essentially, gone. If he did know, he might celebrate before he realised that Cass was worse. Cass wasn't terrified by an old man. Hell, he'd knock his knees out if he ever saw him. 

Lord Blackburn solidarity.
