When Robert arrived at Zack''s Residence, the Yancey had already been present. Jeffery was also present but his family arranged for him to wait in the chamber they have prepared for him.
Lady Bridget also sends words to families with outstanding daughters. She was hoping that Jeffery will take fancy in one of these young ladies.
Even if he has been missing for year''s any woman will be honored to marry a man like him.
"Father," Robert acknowledged his father first. Before going over to meet his brother, who was seated with lord Yancey.
"Brother, congratulation on your good fortune," Robert said in a sincere voice. Although he found it hard to believe that a child that has been missing for over ten years was suddenly found.
If not that his father has already declared him the head of the family and he was sure that Lawrence has never set his eyes on the Zorander''s wealth, he would have thought that the man just found a random boy to fool their father. Although lord Zorander tries not to place an emphasis on making children, their importance could not be denied.
"Thank you, brother. My son is someone very busy and it was very difficult to have him attend this boutique, otherwise, I should have brought him to see you. After all, you are his uncle," Lawrence said.
Since both of them still acknowledge lord Zorander as a father, they were both still considered brothers. It was just that they were independent of each other.
Since Lawrence has taken his father''s first name and Robert the family name. The only difference was that Robert could not exercise his Powe as the head of the family on Lawrence since the families are independent of each other.
For the first time, lord Zorander was pleased by Robert''s choice. If Robert had not come for this boutique, it would have been an open declaration of cutting off all ties and lord Zorander would have taken the final step by declaring that the Zorander household has nothing to do with him.
"it okay brother, I am just happy that my nephew has been found. You have good fortune. Your son even survived the war at such a young age," Robert said.
"It must be my wife''s fortune, we had lost two children to the war, the gods decided to have mercy and return one. I have been visiting the trample of the gods to offer the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Even if I do it the whole year it is not too much," Lawrence said.
" Indeed, you should thank the gods for this good fortune. They lead your son back to you, " Robert said.
" yes they did and it all thanks to princess Ellen. If she had not gotten married to the crown prince of Avalo then, I might never have had the opportunity of meeting my son again, " Lawrence said.
" princess Ellen? Does this mean your son has been living in Avalo? " Robert gave a puzzled look.
" yes, " Lawrence nodded his head and showed them the three black dots in his hand. As he showed them he narrated the story of how he got that mark and how it helped him to reunite with his son.
When lord Yancey and Robert heard the story they were surprised. " it is indeed your good fortune, but will the prince agree to give you back your son. After all, he owes his life to him," Robert said.
Lord Zorander frowns his brows. He could not tell if Robert was sincerely worried about this situation or he was just looking for a way to mock Lawrence. After all his son has been someone''s servant for years.
" Of course, although the prince gave us some conditions to fulfill but in the end, our son Jeffery decided to stay by the prince''s side," Lawrence said with pride. It is only a fool that will underestimate the talent of a man who can stay by the side of the crown prince of Avalo.
" your son''s name is Jeffrey? Are you telling me that he is the rumors right hand of the crown prince of Avalo?" lord Yancey spoke for the first time since Robert arrived.
When Robert heard this question, he turned to look at his brother. All that could be seen in his eyes was curiosity. " I am not sure, but I guess so, after all, he only appeared this time because the crown prince was here," Lawrence said.
Everyone knew of the rumors right-hand man of the prince. His sword skills were said to be almost as good as that of the prince. Moreover, he was one of the few subordinates that have survived all these years of war with the prince.
In fact, in the time past rumors had said that the young man was beyond just a subordinate to the crown prince. The prince was said to be very protective of the crown prince. Some people even dared to question the prince''s sexual preference.
Lawrence thought that the chances of his son being the crown prince right-hand man was most likely but he did not dare to answer in a matter of facts tone since he was not sure. He would not want to put his son in a difficult position.
The topic gradually changed into discussing the situation of Avalo. Although the fact that prince Sébastien took back the throne in Avalo is already spreading, people like Lawrence and lord Yancey were not aware of the situation yet.
Meanwhile, after greeting her grandfather, Jane has sat down away from everyone else. To her, she was only present to meet some of the reputable guests and make a good impression.
Lady Sam on the other hand went to meet with lady Bridget and lady Yancey and her daughter Danny. When she got there lady Bridget was narrating how they found their son.
Lady Sam listened and congratulate Bridget for her good fortune. Bridget accepted lady Sam with a smile. With a single glance, one could tell that lady Bridget was in a good mood.
Seeing lady Bridget like this made lady Sam jealous. She could not understand why heaven was so nice to her. Lady Sam felt that heaven was unfair. They have even given her a daughter who is stubborn and is making things difficult for everyone at home.
Lady Sam dares to blame the gods and heavens. She forgot that she was the one who has failed to train Jane properly and allow her anything she wants.
She also blamed them for taking away her two sons. If both of them had survived, she believed that they would have been so outstanding. In the past, she always felt fortunate that her sons had died and she knew their resting place, unlike Lawrence and Lady Bridget''s son who had to perish in an unknown land.
Now she wished one of her sons was missing. This way she could hope of finding him again. Now that thing we''re like this, she was thinking of trying to get pregnant again and give birth to a boy.. Otherwise, everything her husband works for will end up in the hands of Lawrence''s son.
