Peter’s expression darkened at Hayden’s playful jab, but Hayden merely smiled lightly, as if relishing the discomfort. “From what you’ve said, Mr. Mitchell, you must be quite the romantic,” he teased.

The tea began to boil, releasing a rich fragrance into the air.

Hayden had done his homework on Peter. Despite his dignified reputation, Mr. Mitchell had married three times, fathered no children with his wives, and even had an illegitimate child with a mistress. This mistress had borne him a son and then tried to leverage the child to gain the title of “Madam Mitchell.” Peter, stubborn and prideful, refused her demands and even sent people to take the child by force.

But the mistress, knowing Peter’s methods, preemptively entrusted the child to someone else. When Mitchell’s men came to seize the boy, an explosive argument broke out. In a fit of rage, Mitchell struck her, and in defiance, the mistress stabbed herself in the chest, intending only to scare him. Unfortunately, the blade pierced her heart, killing her instantly.

The boy vanished without a trace after that, leaving Peter to search tirelessly. Years later, his second wife bore him a son, and only then did he relinquish his obsession. Yet, his luck with descendants remained poor–his only son fathered a single child who now lay comatose, unable to wake.

Hayden’s offhand comment about “romantic devotion” hit a nerve. Peter coughed lightly, masking his discomfort. “Young man, it’s unwise to comment on matters you don’t fully understand. Don’t preach what you haven’t lived.

Hayden poured the tea into two cups, the steam curling gently upward. “If hearsay isn’t reliable, why not share your version of the story, Mr. Mitchell?”

Peter regarded the steaming tea, his expression unreadable. “I’m not here to explain myself to you. If there’s anything to be said, it should be said to that girl.”
