The first thing I did in the morning was to run and go to the academy library to get the collected parchments for today. I shuffled all of them only to find one with the name of eastern duke.
I took it with gleaming eyes, here it was filled with the proofs and reports of all his deeds. It even has the statements of the other store owners as to how lord Gerard has paid them a minimal amount for their losses and has turned the facts.
They have complained yet the royal courts did not listen to them. It has a detailed report of how careless the staff of lord Gerard was! Always dealing with matters irresponsibly and being rude with the staff of others. And the whole incident happens due to their carelessness.
