"Why release the Prince Consort? Is it for the Queen's sake?" Dodo couldn't help but interject with a query.
Hank Clegg looked down and explained gently to Dodo, "Because if the Prince Consort were to be killed or commit suicide in prison, then she would never be able to divorce him."
"You're mistaken there," Franklin Clegg shook his finger, "I could never hope for the Prince Consort to win. He and I are bitter enemies over the inheritance, we... the Clegg Family, are bitter enemies with him over the inheritance. That will never change."
At this statement, Hank Clegg did not retort.
Right then, Franklin Clegg's phone started to ring.
"Yes, I'm in front of the Palace Gate. I'm hesitating whether or not to kill Miss Dryen," he told the person on the other end of the line.
Whatever was said on the other side made him laugh, "No, no, that's not the issue. It is because she is very important to me. I want to use her to exchange for my freedom, or my brother's life."
