As he spoke, Zayden reached out to pat him on the shoulder, but Theodore sidestepped the gesture

without hesitation.

“Did you start that fire at the manor?” Theodore cut in, clearly uninterested in small talk.

“What? I’m innocent!” Zayden declared, hands thrown up in mock surrender, a chuckle escaping his

lips. “You can’t go around making false accusations against your brother like this. We both swore an

oath before our grandfather, promising to avoid infighting. The one who breaks that vow loses his claim

to the Fredrick inheritance. I’m not foolish enough to ruin my own future.”

“T’ve got no time for your antics, worthwhile to say, step aside.”

Theodore retorted. “If you’ve got nothing

He was keen to find Ariana as quickly as possible. Any interference from Zayden was a nuisance he

could do without.

“Wow, short memory, huh?” Zayden shook his head, amusement in his smile, lowering his hands. He

stepped closer to Theodore, whispering, “Didn’t I just mention? My visit to Eleymond was to meet my

sister-in-law.”

Suddenly, a wave of unease crashed over Theodore. Realization struck him and anger surged, hot and

fast. Before he knew it, his hands had latched onto Zayden’s collar, his forehead pulsating with veins.

“Don’t you dare touch her!” ©

“Why shouldn’t I?” Zayden’s laugh held an edge of malice. His smile stayed, yet his eyes were devoid

of amusement.

He lazily noted, “I did promise our grandfather to not harm our own people. But Ariana, she’s an

Anderson. She has never even graced our home with her presence.

She’s not one of us.”

His smile broadened, taking pleasure in Theodore’s visible anger. “My boys tracked her down to the

ruins. I chose a man to follow her. He’s got some steam to let off.

I’m sure he’ll entertain her well. Do you appreciate my gift?”

His laughter erupted again, only to be cut short when Theodore slammed him onto the car hood.

Zayden started coughing violently from the shock.

With one hand pressing Zayden down, Theodore’s other hand surprisingly held a gun.

The bodyguards froze when they noticed, their own weapons already trained on Theodore.

Zayden could only whimper, his throat constricted around the gun barrel. The tableau held, nobody

moved, nobody dared.

Theodore’s eyes bore into Zayden’s. “Speak again, and I’ll add another bullet hole to your body.”

At the same time, amidst the ruins of the fire, a group of men were hammering away at a door, trying to

break it down.

Inside, Ariana braced herself against the door, breath coming in labored gasps as she fought to keep

the barrier shut.

Just five minutes earlier, she had sensed trouble. She had quickly dimmed her phone and hidden in the

shadows. When a man approached, she sprang, using her crutch as an impromptu weapon.
