The news of the gentlemen’s retreats‘ raid spread like wildfire through the entire capital.

Fabian was struck dumb with shock. He had been feeling unwell that evening and hadn’t gone to any of the retreats, never imagining it would be seized.

The gentlemen’s retreats had been in business for years, hosting many of the capital’s elite. If Salvador had intended to shut it down, surely someone would have tipped him off.

But there had been no warning–it had simply been raided out of the blue!

When Fabian finally returned to his senses, he immediately called for one of his most trusted servants. He needed to know who had carried out the raid–and, more urgently, whether Gerald had been there tonight. He was well aware that Gerald frequented the retreat, and he had always kept that knowledge a secret.

Even the rest of the Quinton family was unaware, except for Gerald’s trusted servant, Cody. To Gerald, the only person in the gentlemen’s retreat who knew his identity was the steward.

The stableman who took care of the horses wasn’t arrested and rushed straight to Glandale Estate to report the situation.

There was no need for further investigation. Two major pieces of news had already come to light. One, Carissa had brought the Capital Guard and the Garrison Unit and led the raid. Two, the white–faced old man had also been taken and was now being held at the Capital Guard headquarters.

The stableman hadn’t known Gerald’s true identity–only that he was the “white–faced old man“.

Fabian’s eyes widened in alarm. “Doesn’t that mean someone saw him?”
