The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 758 Investigation

Jerry explained, “The Masseys lost Caspian 20 years ago while they were on the run. As for what exactly happened, I’ve only heard rumors that it was because some very important person mentioned to the king that the Masseys were plotting to rebel against Diatoran.”

Zane asked, “Dad, do you have any idea on how to prevent Caspian and Logan from reconciling?”

Jerry laughed and replied, “That’s easy. With the king being basically a puppet for us to control, we can just have His Majesty lie and sow discord between Caspian and Logan.”

“What a great idea, Dad!”

Meanwhile, at Riverside Villa, Caspian was already asleep when his phone started ringing.

He picked up the phone and saw that the caller was Laina.

Caspian accepted the call and asked, “Hello, Laina? Why are you calling me at a time like this?

Laina asked, “Sorry to bother you in the middle of the night, but can we talk right now?”

Laina wouldn’t bother Caspian in the middle of the night if not for reporting something very important.

Caspian replied, “Just tell me about it.”

Willow was also woken up by the phone call. She quietly watched from the side as Caspian continued to talk with Laina.

Caspian went straight to business with Laina as he didn’t want to cause any misunderstandings with Willow.

He knew that she was especially sensitive to such matters.

Caspian had nothing to hide, but he didn’t want to cause unnecessary drama with Willow.

Laina reported, “I found out about what happened at the King’s residence during the night he was attacked.”

“What is it?”

“A group of uninvited guests appeared at the residence that night. And all of the guards at the mansion were killed in battle.”

Caspian was shocked.
