Arthur Stevens stormed in as if he owned the entire estate.
His heavy boots echoed with authority as he crossed the threshold. And the moment he was fully inside, his thunderous voice tore through the courtyard: "Rudeous! Get your ass out here right now!"
The sheer intensity in his tone made heads turn.
Those who were just about to leave paused mid-step. And those who had already entered froze in their tracks. Conversations died. A tense silence fell across the compound.
Alice, startled by the sudden outburst, quickly moved beside Rudeous. Her voice trembled with worry as she whispered, "What should we do?"
Rudeous, who had been staring straight at Arthur from the moment he entered, finally turned to her and gave a gentle, reassuring smile.
"Don't worry. I've got this."
This wasn't the Rudeous of the past.
He wasn't just a man obsessed with nobility and prestige anymore. Something had changed. Or rather, someone had changed him.
Logan.
