Chapter 431 l think father has ruled for long enough
"Where is the paper?"
Leo questioned with a surprised look on his face.
"Yes, that is what I am asking, Leo. Where is the paper?"
Lovis narrowed his eyes.
Leo turned around and glanced at Lovis,
"Master Lovis, I really don't know, I placed it here. I remember it well. I am sure that I am not mistaken!"
"Oh? Then where is it? Did it fly away on its own?"
Lovis questioned.
"I do not know! I placed it here a few hours ago, how can it just… disappear?"
"Maybe you picked it up?"
Lovis questioned.
"Of course not, why would I do something like this? Master Lovis, you know it, I am not that careless. If I had picked it up, I would know where I placed it.
I am a responsible man."
Seeing his butler's reaction, Lovis frowned.
He already knew that the paper wouldn't be here, it was obvious, Evane had her own paper, so of course, the paper he had must be missing.
And just like Evane thought, the second person he doubted was his own butler.
That was the reason he asked him to come with him.
He wanted to see his butler's reaction.
However, now that he has finally seen it, Lovis found it hard to believe that his butler was the one who betrayed him.
Even after seeing that the paper is missing, his butler didn't even realize the fact that he is suspicious of him.
Leo thought that Lovis actually wanted his help to find the paper.
This was not the reaction that a traitor would show.
There were two choices here,
First, Leo was a great actor and knew how to fool him.
Second, Leo was actually innocent.
Both options had an equal likelihood of being true.
Leo has been living with Lovis for a long long time now, for him, fooling Lovis wasn't a hard job.
However, Lovis was inclined to believe the second option.
Leo was innocent.
He had many, better opportunities to betray him, but he didn't. He has no reason to.
Lovis trusted Leo a little.
Therefore, another question popped into his mind.
If not Leo then who?
Evane had the paper, so she couldn't possibly b-
Suddenly, Lovis stopped.
'That bitch…'
He cursed again.
He realized.
He was played.
Again.
'That was the reason she asked me to write on two papers in the first place! She wanted to prove her innocence using the other paper!'
Lovis realized and his anger boiled.
'That fucking bitch! Acting all innocent like that, you disgusting whore!'
However, this time, Lovis didn't let anger get the best of him.
He started thinking.
'But how did she steal the paper from my room? How is that possible?'
He questioned inwardly and started pondering.
'Is there a strong Cultivator backing her up? Who is he? Why is he helping her? Is he an assassin?'
Lovis's face turned solemn.
Evane was a far greater threat than he thought she would be.
He didn't expect that she would have such a strong expert backing her up.
'I need to be careful around her'
Lovis thought inwardly.
