Chapter 797

A few hours later, Caitlin released her mouse. She had reached a startling conclusion.
Vance Castle had no surveillance cameras installed.
In an age where security systems were ubiquitous, the complete absence of cameras at the castle was more than suspicious. It was a glaring red flag, practically screaming that something was being hidden inside.
Meanwhile, at Windsor Castle, Will was on a video call.
“Master Ninth, I’ve met a very special girl recently.”
On the other end of the screen, a man in a sharp suit sat with a stoic expression, his features chiseled and impassive. In response to Will’s news, he offered only a single, monotone syllable. “Hm.”
The man was none other than Gordon Sylvester.
Years ago, Gordon had saved Will’s life during his time with a peacekeeping force. Since that day, the rebellious and arrogant Will, who bowed to no one, had developed a deep and unwavering respect for Gordon alone.
“Master Ninth, don’t be so cold,” Will pouted, propping his chin in his hands. “Come on, give me some ideas. How can I get her to accept me?”
“You like her that much?” Gordon’s lips barely moved. For more chapters visıt.net
“It’s not really that I like her… it’s more that I want to conquer her,” Will admitted, struggling to describe the feeling. “Anyway, I just have to make her mine!” He paused, then sighed dramatically. “But never mind. You’re a lone wolf yourself, Master Ninth. What kind of advice could you possibly give me?”
“Who says I’m a lone wolf?” Gordon shot Will a look, suddenly more talkative. My girlfriend is the most beautiful woman in the universe. He had promised Caitlin he’d keep their relationship a secret, but Wildwasn’t connected to his circle in Eldermere Besides what was the point of having a girlfriend if you couldn’t show her off a little?
The most beautiful woman in the universe? Girlfriend?
Will shot
from
up the couch. “Master Ninth! You have a girlfriend? Since when? Didn’t you used to say you would never get married?” How did he suddenly have a girlfriend? Will felt fike he was dreaming. He couldn’t even imagine what kind of woman could possibly be worthy of Gordon, who, in his eyes, was practically a god Gordon had descended from the heavens to save him from an enemy encampment, and then, at the peak of his legendary military career, he had walked away without a second glance to dominate the world of finance.
“I said I wouldn’t get married,” Gordon corrected him in a low, even tone.
“Tsk, tsk.” Will’s eyes narrowed
playfully. “So you’re just going to string her along? I seem to recall you scorning my ‘dating without commitment’ philosophy.” Gordon had always lectured him that any relationship not heading toward marriage was dishonorable. And now here he was doing the same thing. Men, he thought, were all hypocrites.
Gordon stated, each word deliberate, “I can marry into her family.”
That wasn’t the same as him taking a wife. He had thought it through. Caitlin had said she wouldn’t get married, but she never said she wouldn’t accept a husband who joined her family. He was perfectly willing to be that man.
Will’s eyes widened, his expression one of pure shock. Marry into her family?
“Master Ninth, you’re kidding, right?” It had to be a joke. A man like Gordon would never do that.
