Chapter 73

Chapter 73 Dealing With The Crazies (Nikolas POV)

After the meeting, Qusack and Abraham left the office so they could attend to the correspondence. I was hopeful that we would find some answers, something that we could use to help with my coronation.

I wondered how deep the plot was but planned to unravel the story and get to the truth.

My father deserved justice, and for my mother’s sake, I hoped she wasn’t part of it the mutiny.

Someone knocked on my door when I was in deep thought, and I looked to see who it was; Piotr stuck his head in with a big smile.

“I was led here,” he said, and I immediately pushed away my worry and smiled.

“Good morning.’ I greeted him, and he walked in. He looked very relaxed, even more than he did in Hill when we met. Keeping his relationship a secret must have weighed on him heavily. I could only imagine what both of them went through.

Piotr sat on the couch in my office and looked around.

“You are all business Nikolas,” He said, admiring my office. There was nothing special about the place, but Piotr still looked at everything with a smile on his face. It was apparent he had a good night.

“How is Natasha?” I asked him, and he looked at me and nodded.

“Sleeping. A maid brought breakfast, and I told her to wait with her if you do not mind,” he said, and I nodded.

“Well, Natasha shouldn’t hold on to her for long because she is Aliana’s friend,” I said, and he nodded.

“Noted, it is just until she is up,” he said quickly, and I managed a smile, something Aliana had made easy for me.

“It is okay; I am sure Lisa won’t mind hanging out with Natasha,” I added, and he nodded. I figured Lisa would be the one to go to Natasha. “So, what is the itinerary for today? Any plans that include me?” He asked, and I frowned, wondering what he wanted.

He stared at me, looking confused, then decided to elaborate.
