"You bought a slave for ten thousand shillings? Are you out of your mind?" The Alpha King thundered at his eldest son who was standing at a good distance away from him.
"But Father, you told me to get the slave at any cost, I had no choice. It was a tough competition." Arthur explained.
"Shut up, you lying idiot! You think I don't have ears everywhere? You started the bidding with two thousand shillings, already giving the impression that she was worth a lot and even at that, you went ahead to bid ten thousand shillings when the previous bidding was just four thousand five hundred shillings? Do you think our generational wealth was kept just to be spent on some stupid slaves?" The Alpha King scolded again and then continued, "this is why you aren't the crown prince even though you are the eldest. You do the dumbest things without even thinking, you idiot."
