Chapter 168: I don't have time for this.
As the first born son, Henry had expected to inherit the family but due to his older sister outclassing him in almost everything he put his mind to, he became more and more worried when he began hearing the servants going on and on about how it would be better if the Viscount decided to have his sister take over the household by having her marry someone into the family instead.
Normally he wouldn't have cared since most noble households had no intentions of doing such but, with more and more time going by, he soon discovered that his father was gradually begining to entertain such thoughts. Such things led to him soon secretly despising Victoria.
Even though she never tried to outright outshine him like she did Esmeralda, Henry's growing paranoia had led to him trying to do his best to escape her shadow but at the rate things were going, he was worried his attempts would all be in vain in the end.
