"She wanted Marcus Zoros to be the sole heir, Lexa," Maximus said looking at the floor.
Alexandra couldn't figure out what he was thinking. He looked more angered than being sad. But just like that, the little understanding Alexandra had for Theodora vanished. Lord Zoros accepted Marcus as his son and Theodora was not satisfied with that. She wanted Marcus to be the single heir of the Zoros family.
"She is not a good woman, is she?" Alexandra let out a sigh.
"Don't sigh for her…"Maximus lay on her lap once more.
Alexandra caressed his hair in deep thoughts. "Do you really know it was Theodora?" she asked to confirm. Because she couldn't understand how someone would be so filled with hate to kill two sons of another woman just for her son to become the heir.
"It was the dark mage," Maximus said. "She's been using him for doing her bidding for a while. I only found out about it recently. I…" Maximus gritted his teeth.
