Caspian knew that he was killing the mood of the room. However, he didn’t want to waste a whole night after what they all went through.

So, he said in an apologetic tone, “I know it is past midnight. But I still have a lot of things to sort out. I can’t exactly go and sleep when there are so many things to take care of.”

Zenon looked at Hamilton and said with an unbothered smile on his face, “Oh, it’s alright, Lord Hamilton. I stayed here thinking that the King might need me to do something. It’s my duty to assist him whenever he needs me. So, I am okay.”

Hamilton shrugged and mumbled, “Well, if you say so…”

Zenon chugged down the whole glass of blood and quickly got up on his feet. He looked at Hamilton and Vincent, and then asked, “I think you two might have to continue without me. I will listen to the two of you some other time.”

After getting an agreement from the both of them, Zenon turned to look at the King and asked, “Let’s head to your study room, Your Majesty.”

Caspian and Zenon then disappeared from the room in an instant.

Upon entering the study, Caspian went to sit down on his chair while Zenon closed the door and sat down in front of the King. And he formally asked, “I already got the major information about the recent attack. What is your order, Your Majesty?”

.....

Zenon sounded as though he was ready to send a whole army of soldiers to Xanmar right away if the King gave that order to him.

Caspian was surprised to see that rage lingering on the usually calm face of his advisor. He cleared his throat and then tried to ease Zenon first. “Yes, about that, I think we should investigate who was behind that attack first. I doubt that it was Everard. Even if it was indeed him who gave out the order, I doubt that it was him who came up with the idea.”

“We have to try and solve that issue without much bloodshed.” He furrowed his brows and looked Zenon in the eyes. And he emphasized, “I want no war, Zenon. I want that matter settled as quietly as possible.”

Zenon took a deep breath after listening to the King. The rage on his face slowly washed away. And he finally responded, “I will send some men to reach to the depth of that matter. And I will keep what you said in mind. No war.”

Before Zenon stormed out of the room to plan and give out orders to the others, Caspian gave another task to his trustworthy advisor.

“Zenon, I might just be a little paranoid. But…” Caspian clasped his palms together and then sighed. He wasn’t sure if what he was going to ask was right or wrong. Thus, he had a difficult time trying to form a sentence.

“What is it, Your Majesty?” Zenon could tell that something was bothering the King a lot. And he was almost sure that it had something to do with the Queen. “Is there something that you would like to share with me?” he asked since the King confided in him every now and then.

Caspian looked at Zenon and heaved a deep sigh. After internally struggling for a while, Caspian finally spilled what was in his head, “I think that there’s something that I don’t know about my wife.”

Zenon shifted at the edge of his chair and attentively listened to what the King had to say.

“I don’t know… I might just be overthinking. But… I think that Alexander was trying to hide something from me… about the Queen’s health.”

“The Queen’s health?” Zenon repeated.

“Yes.” Caspian gave a nod and then explained, “You know how the Queen keeps on getting ill. She had a high fever while we were staying at that inn. And Alexander had called a doctor to check her. However, when he was trying to say something more… other than the reason behind her high fever… Alexander interrupted that doctor. And without letting him speak another word, he personally led that doctor away.”

“It almost looked as though Alexander was deliberately trying to hide something from me.” Caspian ran his fingers through his blond hair with an uneasy expression on his face. He looked at Zenon and asked, “Tell me, Zenon. Am I thinking a bit too much, or is my suspicion valid?”

Zenon thought for a while and calmly replied, “From the way the Crown Prince led the doctor away, I would say that he doesn’t want you to discover something about the Queen’s health.” He sighed and asked the King, “Should I look into that matter too?”

Caspian instantly hesitated. He closed his eyes and rested his chin on his palm. And he mumbled in a confused manner, “I don’t know, Zenon. If there was something to worry about, then I don’t think Alexander or Anna would have hidden it from me.”

“Well, it might be something minor that doesn’t need your attention,” Zenon said to try and comfort the King. “But if you want to uncover the truth, then I can carry out an investigation in secret.” He said that thinking that the King wouldn’t obviously want his wife to know that he was investigating her behind her back.

Caspian thought about that matter for a while. He didn’t want to bear the guilt of suspecting his own wife and brother-in-law if he didn’t find anything serious.

However, at the same time, the thought that there was indeed something that they were hiding from him was eating him up from the inside. The curiosity in his heart had exceeded the limit for it to be left alone.

In the end, he looked at Zenon and ordered him to carry out a secret investigation. “I don’t want Anna or Alexander to know that I am digging up information about her. Carry out the investigation in extreme secrecy.”

“As you wish, Your Majesty.” Zenon got up from his seat and bowed to the King. He then instantly rushed out of the room to carry out the King’s order.
