A week passed in the blink of an eye. During that time, the Austin family carried out a massive investigation into Rovert's actions.
Evidence was gathered from all corners, stirring chaos across the east.
Many wondered what had truly happened. Several heads of noble families even visited the Austin mansion, demanding an explanation from Alvaron.
But he had no intention of explaining anything, only stating that his actions were carried out under palace orders.
Naturally, the heads of the families didn't take his word for it. They launched their own secret investigation to uncover whatever truth the Austin family was hiding.
Unfortunately for them, their efforts were futile. Every result of the Austin family's investigation was guarded with extreme care, leaving no gaps. On top of that, the palace itself lent support, making the matter nearly impossible to uncover.
Meanwhile, in his room, Nolan sat back, relaxed, sipping his tea.
