An heir might struggle with familial bonds, but they absolutely could not succumb to something as volatile as romantic love. Yet here Yardley was, risking everything for a woman.
"Dad," Starla said, pulling him from his thoughts. "The training classes you arranged for me before... I want to resume them."
Elmer's brow twitched in surprise. "You..."
"I'm a daughter of the Hoggart family. Since I've decided to stay, I refuse to be some fragile victim who constantly needs a bodyguard."
She knew Luce was one of Elmer's top men. The fact that her father had assigned him to her meant he viewed her as someone who couldn't protect herself.
"Alright," Elmer agreed without hesitation. If his princess wanted to learn how to bare her fangs, he would give her the best instructors in the world.
Starla smiled. "Thank you, Dad."
...
That night, Elmer had his staff prepare the VIP suite next door for Starla.
The moment her head hit the pillow, her phone lit up. Yardley was calling again. Then, Susanna.
Susanna must have found out that Elmer was hunting Fairfax.
Starla silenced her phone, rolled over, and went to sleep.
...
Back at Hoggart Castle.
It took Yardley a full hour to finally join Jane in the parlor. He had clearly spent that time coordinating damage control for Susanna and Fairfax.

"You're a failure as a husband and coward as a Man" This is what i want to say in Fairfax hahaha you dont deserved a wife if you cant protect her...
Hahaha This plot of story i hate about, choosing another girl instead of your own wife is something unreal, you didnt considered your wife feeling, you didnt even trust her and later on you will say sorry?? Was sorry will fixed everything you've done? Was sorry fixed her heart? it was unfair for your wife, you must choose your wife whatever it is. You know your wife well more than anyone else and the only person she should lean on was the person who pushes her away...
Finallyπ...
More chapters please π₯Ί...
