Kayn trembled. The development of his situation had clearly exceeded his imagination.
He was now able to tell that Adrian was suspicious of him, but he had never even considered the possibility of all that
happening. In his mind, Heroes of Wyvern Peak was supposed to be untraceable, so he wondered how Adrian found out about
1. it.
While Kayn took a deep breath, Adrian tapped the table with his index finger, waiting for a response.
After a long while, Kayn said, “I wasn’t expecting you to be this smart, sir. I thought you would think of me as a benefactor after 1 showed up in front of you last time. I wasn’t expecting you to suspect me.”
Adrian’s expression remained calm and did not answer.
Meanwhile, Mya said, “The legate is a man of principles and has never believed in unscientific stuff like being able to predict the future. So, do you regret your actions now? All you’ve done in your life is make mistake after mistake. I bet you weren’t expecting the legate to look into your background, were you?”
Kayn continued to tremble and could not find the words to say. Mya advised him, “The legate’s time is precious, so I suggest you stop wasting his time and answer his questions.”
Kayn shook his head. “You may know about the book being auctioned off at Fowler House, but that has nothing to do with me. You wouldn’t be able to find any links to me even if you did investigate the matter. I’m an innocent man who has said nothing but predictions I’ve come to learn about.”
“Does this mean you’re not going to confess?”
“You need evidence in order to accuse me of something, even if you’re from Wyvern Peak. I’ll never admit to any
wrongdoings that you’re slapping on me out of nowhere. Or are you all going to torture me into making a confession?” Kayn said resolutely.
Kayn was no fool. He knew Adrian did not have much little intel on him and that he had no solid evidence. In fact, he believed that there was zero to no evidence that could be used against him, which was why he believed Adrian’s guess was baseless.
He shook his head and said, “I’m not saying I don’t want to confess, but 1 have no idea what you’re trying to make me confess. All I have is same lanowledge of astrology and me predicting your future of my own accord. You’re free to ignore my words if you prefer.”
Kayn calmed himself, took another deep breath, and drank some tea to soothe his nerves. At this moment, he looked much calmer.
Noticing how Kayn was keeping his mouth shut, Mya turned toward Adrian and asked, “Should I teach him a lesson, sir?”
Before Mya could barely get her sentence out, a shout came from outside.
“Let me in! I want to see him!”
It was clearly Shirley’s voice, causing Mya to raise her head and ask, “What’s going on?‘
A soldier walked in and said, “Sir, Ms. Shirley insists on coming in and won’t leave until she does.”
“Then ”
However, before Mya could say anything, Adrian said, “Let her in then.”
After that…
