William shook his head. Ashryver is a fairly well-known family name. If they moved to another kingdom, surely William would hear their names mentioned once or twice on each of his visits to other kingdoms. But every time William carried out his delegation to other kingdoms, he never heard Ashryver's name at all.
His father was not someone who could sit idly by. The man was the most ambitious person William had ever met. His expulsion from Northendell himself was the result of his greed. If only at that time his father had not insisted on taking Ronan's position by saying that Ronan was still very young, maybe his father would still be one of the most influential duke in Norhendell.
"I have cut my ties with the family. I don't know where they are no longer my business," William answered bitterly.
"I'm sorry, William. I didn't meant to make you sad.."
