Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 120

I returned to the lounge while Tamia helped settle David and his family in.

I wonder why Dominic did not show up to meet the guy.

I knew my brother was petty like our mother.

He knew Alissa, and she was mean to him and our mother.

It was normal that he would avoid her son and not want to have anything to do with David, but he needed to overcome his hatred and show some love.

I entered the lounge, and Dominic was there.

My guess was right about him not wanting to see David.

“How did it go?” Dominic asked me, and I sat down on the couch.

“You would have known if you were there,” I said, and his face dimmed.

“I can’t have anything to do with that bastard,” Dominic voiced out, and I nodded.

“That bastard is the spitting image of father and seemed pleasant too.

He isn’t interested in our politics and has a lovely mate and three children, who happen to be triplets, by the way,” I explained to Dominic, and I could see the shame in his eyes.

My words rendered him speechless.

Everyone was quiet too.

It was as if I had made the atmosphere seriously awkward.

“We are not obligated or expected to avenge mother, Dominic.

Our parents lived their lives and made mistakes; we do not have to continue the pattern among ourselves,” I said, and he felt ashamed.

“Where is he?” Dominic finally asked.

“Tamia is settling them in,” I told him, and he nodded.

“I will see them later,” he said, and I sighed.

Once the atmosphere was calm, Devin was the first to speak.

“My beta would arrest the people in the south today.

But he said he would do it quietly, so they do not alert the people here,” he explained to me, and I sighed.

“So what will happen after we pick these people up and you become king?” Leo asked a valid question because what we were doing was only going to buy us time, not solve the problem.

“I will give both of you seats on the council, increasing my influence, and we will hunt for someone,” I said, and they were attentive.

I did not know if Dominic knew of Jenny’s son, but this was the time to lay it on the table.

“Jenny Lawrence had an affair with my father.

She also slept with Marcel and Theodore’s father,” I said, and they were shocked.

“This Jenny woman is all over the place,” Devin said, making an obvious observation.

“But that isn’t the issue, really,” I said and sighed.

“We investigated her home a few months ago and found some pretty disturbing things.

The woman had a knack for keeping records.

Official and private records, some of which were disturbing.” I said, and Theodore interrupted me.

“Maybe her involvement in these things is what got her killed.

She might have pissed them off, and they came for her and then tried to make it seem like it was Corrigan.

I am glad we did not act on the information we had,” he said, and Devin exclaimed.

“What attack?” He asked.
