As such, Reif realizes how easy it is for him to manipulate the people of high status in this world. He just has to give them the fear of death and they would succumb to his will
This son and the Heir of the Marquis that Reif killed is a prime example of that. He didn't even think much of how he could escape from this situation
The Young Marquis just nodded his head in fear. The thought of creating a plan to escape from Reif's clutches never entered his mind
The only thing that he thought of was doing whatever Reif wants him to do so that he could survive
If he survive this danger, with his father's power and influence, it wouldn't be late to get rid of the person that dared to threaten his life, right?
