"The biggest problem right now is that letter," Mr. Blackwood said coldly, shaking his head. "I've seen it, and the handwriting is a close match. If it's a fake, then the person behind this really went to great lengths—the penmanship is good enough to pass for the real thing."
Conflicts between powerful, noble families were nothing new. This time, the Ashworth Family and the Winters Family were bound to have a full-blown confrontation. But to use a young girl as their opening gambit... That Cecil Winters was really becoming more shameless as he aged.
The mere mention of the letter made Mr. Ashworth seethe. "The person who planned this trap was definitely exploiting Master Benedict's influence. They must have also calculated that since Master Benedict is traveling the world, he wouldn't be around, using this window of opportunity to harm my Seraphina."
'That shameless old coot, Cecil Winters, actually daring to use Master Benedict's name. The nerve on him.'
