Julius smiled as he entered,

”Master, do you need anything?” he bowed.

”Nothing. More two days to go, Julius” Alexander spoke casually.

Julius stared at Lord Alexander,taking a deep breath he spoke

”I shall work upon it, Master. I will try to get as much information as I can. It's not that easy to dig much into the matter. A friend of mine will be visiting tomorrow. If you wish, I can introduce him to you. ...If possible.”

Julius stopped, not sure of what he was speaking.

”Are you thinking of dragging him to me?” Alexander laughed.

Hearing this, Julius was shocked. His brows furrowed as he tried to speak, but all he could do is exhale air.

”Surprisingly, till now you didn't realize that I could read minds.” Alexander smiled as he opened an old parchment kept on the table.

Julius didn't know what to say next.

”You knew about my nightmare before, didn't you?” Julius felt guilty thinking about how careless he was.

”Yes, on the day itself when Jacob died and you were crying while caressing his face,” Alexander spoke as he read the parchment carefully.

”I wanted to hear it from you, Julius. But, nevermind. It's never too late,”he smiled as he looked at Julius.
