Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 99

Return to The Estate ~Sylvester~ I wondered what Vino wanted to discuss with me.

The guy honestly gave me the creeps, but I knew I needed to be polite; so far, he had sided with me most of the time during the council hearings, and he had let Tamia get away with a lot.

The least I could do was hear him out.

“Hey,” I linked Marcel and Theodore.

“The meeting is over with Leo and Devin, and they are willing to work with us because of Tamia.

Meanwhile, Vino asked to see me, so I want to see him briefly in the booth.

I will join you guys soon.

We will be heading for the estate today.

Cancel all our participation.

I think we have played enough,” I said, and they agreed.

It would have been fun to unwind and win a cup before our wedding, but there was just too much to do, and the time was very little.

“Meet me in my meeting booth,” I linked Vino, returning to where I had the meeting with Leo and Devin.

I went there and sat down to wait for Vino.

He arrived looking dirty in his football jersey.

I did not know he was playing football.

The guy was just invisible to me.

I needed to make more effort to know what my council members were up to.

He greeted me with respect, and I smiled at him.

“Vino, how may I be of service?” I asked him, and he smiled and made himself comfortable.

“How are you, your eminence?” he asked, and I chuckled.

“Please call me Sylvester.

We aren’t in the council hall,” I said, and he smiled.

“It is an honour to call you by your name,” the man said, and he was creepy.

Sometimes I wonder why he admired me.

I had done nothing.

Other than succeeding my father, I had done nothing, yet he treated me like his idol.

It was weird, but there were strange people like that, and Vino happened to be one of those people.

“So?” I asked Vino getting impatient.

“I am really in a hurry,” I said nicely, and his smile dropped.

“if I may?” he said, and I knew he was asking to speak freely, so I nodded and told him to go ahead.

“Too much has been happening lately, and I do not know if we need to be worried,” he said, and I frowned at him.

“The petition these alphas raised would affect all of us.

I am glad they changed their minds,” he said, and I frowned at him.

“You were likely to benefit from it the most,” I pointed out since he was the head of the council.

He bared his neck immediately, a sign of submission and respect.

“That is why I want to see you.

I knew I would be the prime suspect, and seeing how people have been set up lately, I believe whoever is doing this is trying to set me up.

Please, Sylvester.
