Sandra shook her head. "Far from it. All the families here operate on hereditary principles. The days of battles and wars ended with our grandparents' generation.

Marguerite's confusion deepened, her brows knotting further. "Was Frederick pulling my leg then?"

Sandra paused, a hint of surprise in her voice. "Did Frederick tell you he was staying behind to engage in a war?"

"He mentioned something about a trade war."
