The nobles were then dismissed and allowed to see their captured children to say their goodbyes before they were sent to the Magic Tower prisons.
Marquess Sibruh sighed in relief when all the summoned nobles had finally left the castle.
He looked like he aged ten years in a matter of hours.
"Please, sit down, Marquess," Arabella smiled.
"M-my apologies!"
The Marquess blushed in embarrassment when he realized he had let his guard down for a few seconds in their presence.
It was understandable though since he had to process everything he just learned recently.
He was the one suffering due to his father's mistakes in managing the marquesatte.
Unfortunately for him, there were more issues they needed to discuss.
The stressful hours were not done yet.
"There's also something more we needed to discuss. Would you like to have the discussion now or on another day?" Arabella inquired.
[There's more?!! What else did Father's pride and carelessness cause?!]
