Chapter: 759

The next day, Fritz visited Astelle and told her what happened in the mansion.

“He agreed easily.”

Astelle was a little surprised to hear what her brother said.

She thought her father would have an argument with her brother for at least a few days.

‘Does he perhaps have other plans?’

Given her father’s personality, it was hard to imagine he would easily give up his title.

Maybe he had other thoughts that could turn this situation around.

“I am suspicious, too. There’s no way he’d just give up.”

The Marquis interrupted, “He’s looking for a chance to get revenge.”

Astelle agreed with her maternal grandfather.

Fritz sighed. “Since we’re living together in the mansion, I can keep an eye on what he’s doing.”

“Will you be okay?”

“I can’t help it.”

A slight sense of guilt crossed Fritz’s eyes.

Astelle understood his heart.

As a son, he would definitely feel guilty for forcibly taking his father’s title.

Despite the Duke’s personality, Fritz has a strong bond with his father as he was raised as the only heir.

“The official appointment letter will be issued within tomorrow.” Astelle changed the topic.

“I never imagined that.”

Fritz also looks very surprised.

Kaizen said he would appoint Fritz as Minister of Home Affairs –although it has not yet been officially announced.

After Fritz said goodbye, Astelle was left alone with her maternal grandfather.

“I can’t believe that kid will become a duke……”

The Marquis sighed and noticed Astelle had a complicated expression.

“No need to worry too much. No matter how angry he is, he can’t hurt him. He is his only successor. So are you.”
