Chapter 201 Two Hundred and One
Greg surveyed the mansion on his first day when the head servant gave him a tour to make sure he knew his way around. In secret, he took mental notes on the locations he could use to place the hidden recording devices that he hid in his slightly oversized shoes when he left his apartment.
So, thanks to the device near the fireplace, the Duke heard the whole conversation between the mother and daughter. His animal growled at the mention of demolishing Blue Crescent as the Kylton’s ‘contingency plan’, and Greg thanked Goddess that he was alone in his dark room pretending to be asleep when he eavesdropped. But he had a good laugh with his animal when Kelissa said that she wasn’t stupid. She couldn’t even keep him under her reins. Her chauffeur didn’t even check his shoes for the recording devices he brought with him.
There wasn’t even a single camera or recording device in the guest room they gave him. Not one. He checked. Six times.
He still checked for them if he had been away from his room. If Kelissa Kylton wasn’t stupid, then she had to be as dim as a fused lightbulb covered in a thick layer of dust that repelled anyone allergic to her foolishness.
And then there was what Kelissa said about what he and his cousins see in Lucianne… seriously? She needed an explanation for that? The way they smiled itself were at opposite ends of the spectrum…if Kelissa were even worthy to share the same spectrum as Lucianne at all!
Lucianne radiated a contagious warmth, raw beauty, inspirational intellect, killer sarcasm and noble ferocity. The heiress, on the other hand…Oh, Goddess, where should Greg even begin? Kelissa exuded only a_ shuddering presence, and the makeup she wore in no way covered up the sinister, conceited and selfish persona many people knew her by.
Her intellect? Greg and his animal concluded that the heiress should count herself lucky that her family’s money and reputation had always gotten her through without being laughed at or stepped on for her lack of common sense and understanding of simple concepts. Of course she was impressed with his contribution at the brainstorming session! She knew so little! And for someone who was dead certain that she was ‘the rightful Queen’, she exemplified ZERO nobility.
Greg suddenly found himself muttering, “If Kylton became Queen, Goddess help this Kingdom.”
When he was done judging, he prayed that Billy, Lance and the rest of his underground people were doing fine without him. After that, he fell into a deep slumber. 7

Greg joined the other pathetic advisors and snobbish Kyltons for breakfast like he did everyday since he arrived. For some reason, it was always the seat next to Livia that was empty. He tried to come down a little earlier to get a seat other than that but to no avail.
