48. Truth of her life!

Author's POV

Vera refused to let her tears fall.

She recalled the day when she heard Vlad's conversation with Igor.

She was anxious after whatever Zen told her. She wanted to trust Vlad but her past experience wasn't good.

When she reached Vlad's study room she saw him with Igor, she didn't even want to know how Zen knew that they would be there. Only two of them were there so no one stopped her.

"Why did you call me here?..."

Igor asked while looking at Vlad's collection of books.

"The thing is you came!"

Vlad crossed his legs with a mischievous smirk.

"You are that man whom I can't underestimate... What is it, Volkov?"

Igor sat in front of him.

"You know what I want."

Vlad poured a drink for him.

Igor accepted the drink and leaned back.

"You know it's impossible... I can't make you the King when you are an illegitimate child. Liliana being my first born and biological child deserves the throne..."

"What if I have a valid claim?"

Vlad smirked.

"You don't!"

Igor clenched his jaw
