Chapter 29
“If Eunice knew that you were here, she would raise hell…” the old man smiled as he leaned back in his ornate, mahogany chair, its polished. surface reflecting the soft glow of the antique chandelier hanging above. His slender fingers, adorned with heavy gold rings, clasped together over a monogrammed handkerchief.
His weathered face turned away from the steam of the tea in front of them, turning towards Lawrence. “Tell me… what did you need from this old man?” he asked.
“Now, why would you assume that it was I who needed something from you?” Lawrence calmly said. Not many people knew this, but he was currently talking to someone who used to be a member of the Lockhart Family–William Clarence.
Despite being a Lockhart, the seventy–year–old man was forced to change his surname when the Lockhart family kicked him out decades ago.
“If you came here to ask me to help Sofia, then I’m afraid I no longer have the power to do that,” William said, his gaze clear. “I am no longer a Lockhart.”
“Now, isn’t it too much for you to assume that I came here because I wanted you to help Sofia?” Lawrence smiled. “I came because I want to cooperate.”
“Cooperate?” the old man’s white brow immediately raised. He narrowed his eyes at Lawrence. “You wanted to ruin the Lockhart Family?”
“Surprise?”
“Are you not Eunice’s dog?” William snorted. “What made you change. your mind?”
“Dog?” Lawrence snorted. “I have never been her dog to begin with.”

The old man nodded, understanding flashing in his eyes. Then he took a sip of tea. Seeing this, Lawrence also took his tea and tasted it, giving the old man some time to think.
Decades ago, William did something terrible to another member of the Lockhart Family. While Lawrence did not have specifics, he knew that it was terrible enough, as the Lockharts did not hesitate to kick William out to protect their name..

However, it was not just a simple kicking of someone who was already down. The Lockhart Family removed him from their family registry. They revoked his trust fund, warned other companies not to accept him, and did not grant him any inheritance that all Lockharts would receive when they reached a certain age.
Because of this, William was forced to leave the United States and work abroad. Years later, William was able to establish his own company in Russia and found a bride. He had his own family, children, and years later, his very own grandchildren.
When Eunice’s father died, William chose to silently return to the place where he was born. From the information that Lawrence gathered, William wanted to die and be buried next to his parents. Eunice had granted this wish. Because of this, William is now back in Illinois.
“What kind of help does an old man like me give you?” William asked after a few minutes of silence. “I have already given my company to my children. I am but a useless old man waiting for his death.”
“Eunice will never wake up again,” Lawrence said.
