In that moment, Kading even sensed killing intent from Graces.
"I haven't said anything yet, but... he really doesn't know you have a male?" Kading couldn't believe Graces had hidden something so important.
"Stay out of it, Kading. If Lustan finds out about this, I'll come for you!"
"Hey, isn't that a bit tyrannical? It might not even be me who tells him!"
"Who asked you to meddle? If you don't want to cause trouble for yourself, then keep everyone in line. Now you can get lost!"
Graces tossed out the words and turned to leave, showing no intention of lingering.
And Kading could see it now: Duke Lu Xia and the male child called Little Pu Tao were Graces's breaking point.
'A person who once had nothing and suddenly gains everything will protect it with their life, especially someone like Graces.'
Kading had no doubt that in that brief moment, Graces had genuinely wanted to kill him.
