Henry looked her up and down. 'You look better than you did this morning. Happy to see your son?"

'About what? About Rinton? Henry folded his arms. "I know more than that, dear, I know everything about him. I know the name of the country he went to, Fanton, and the name of the woman he's engaged to. I know everything he did in the past four years."

Henry couldn't care less what his son did as long as he stayed in Rinton.

He used to see Austyn as his heir, but that was before Austyn openly defled him and even tried to kill him.
