"Grandfather already had all the evidence. He was just waiting for... us..."

"..."
Vivienne strained her ears, trying her best to filter the crucial information through the barrage of electronic noise. But as the notification sounds grew denser and more frantic, she could barely hear a word Cyril was saying.
Finally, unable to take it anymore, she turned her head to glare at him. "Could you—"
Because they were so close, her sudden movement caught Cyril completely off guard. All his willpower was focused on controlling his racing heart, and he hadn't anticipated this. Before he could react, her lips brushed against his eyelashes.
Both of them froze.
Vivienne blinked instinctively, her long, curled lashes sweeping across his lips like raven feathers.

Endless strings of nines.
Vivienne lowered her gaze and slowly leaned back.
"I wasn't finished."
Cyril slowly uttered the words. He placed a hand on the edge of the bed, leaning in close until his lips were right beside her ear.
"Grandfather's Black Box of Sins contains evidence of all the crimes committed by the second and third branches."
Vivienne's heart skipped a beat. Grandfather must have received her message and planned this in advance.
"Not only does Grandfather know who was behind the assassination attempt in Alderwick all those years ago, but he even tracked down the truth behind Alaric being framed and driven crazy at the age of eight."
Grandfather even told Alaric that? Oh no! Alaric was as stubborn as a mule; what if he completely misunderstood Grandfather's good intentions?
