The Butler was about to leave when Roland held his arm, halting his steps."I don't want to trouble father not now that I'm still making an effort to please him." Roland removed his hand from the old man's arm as he fell on his bed, facing the awning."But he has to know." The Butler said in a whisper."He doesn't have to know and I'll be indoors for some days. As you can see my mouth is swollen."

Seraphina, sensing his distress, approached him cautiously."Roland, please," she implored, reaching out to touch his arm gently. "There's more to this than meets the eye. Perhaps there's a reason why Alex was named as the heir. We should consider all possibilities before jumping to conclusions."Her words only fueled Roland's frustration. "How can you say that, Seraphina?" he snapped, pulling away from her touch. "After everything we've been through, all the evidence of his true nature, you expect me to believe he's the rightful heir?
