Chapter 486
Strix put the document down, and lifted his head to look at her. “Your grandfather is in trouble now. Do you want to go back and have a look at the de Arma family?”
Maisie was stunned. “What happened?”
The only person left in this world that was connected to her through blood was Hernandez, her maternal grandfather. But how would he be in trouble?
Strix nodded, “The Royal left-wing party has sent someone after your grandfather. While the de Arma family is in chaos right now, they seized the opportunity to take over the territory belonging to them. I’m guessing they’re doing this to prevent your grandfather from meddling with the upcoming election.”
Stoslo would hold a presidential election every six years. The royal family and the government would not intervene in the election. Perhaps the reason Roger had asked help from the government was to increase his own influence, or maybe he did not only want the throne but the entire Stoslo.
When Strix did not get any response from Maisie, he spoke again in a slow voice. “If you don’t want to go, I won’t force you.” “I want to go,” Maisie said, looking at him with
determination, “Even though I don’t want anything from the de Arma family, I cannot let other people take it away.”
Strix smiled and nodded. “Alright. I’ll let Saydie go with you.”
After he finished speaking, he summoned Saydie. When Maisie saw the newcomer, she was stunned.
“Sir,” the person said.
Maisie looked at Strix and asked in disbelief, ‘Is she a girl or a boy?”
Saydie was young. She dressed like a boy and had a beautiful face. Maisie had no idea what she had gone through in the past, but she could see she was mature and had a lot of stories to tell in her eyes.
Strix chuckled and replied, “Saydie is my most trusted aide. She has been with me since 15 years old. Those people have seen her skills before. She represents me, and I’m relieved to have her there. I’ll have someone there to meet you when the time comes.”
Three days later…
