When the thick fog that had obscured his memories cleared everything else became clear.

Things Heint had never considered strange began to strike him as odd, prompting him to reconsider the situation. Fortunately, he was confident that no one knew more about any type of magnolia drugs than he did.

‘I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence that Tidwell manipulated me at the same time His Majesty gave me an order to look for the Dark Flower.’

But he knew a golden opportunity had been presented to him.

He was on the brink of losing the family that had been his lifetime’s glory to a conman.

The thought of a conman daring to fool him, a Leontine, and shamelessly breaking into the mansion made his blood boil. Because a strong sense of self-worth and pride had always been a Leontine trait.

It really angered him that he had been so manipulated by a young man.

Surprisingly, it wasn’t himself or his family prestige that weighed his mind the most after discovering he had been fooled by a conman.

‘Ravia.’

The paper in Heint’s hand made a crackling sound as he crumpled it ferociously.

Following the dissipation of the fog that had clogged Heint’s mind, all his memories, from the very old to the very recent, flooded back.

Therefore, Heint was able to remember more clearly what happened between him and Tidwell during the 〈Aida〉 performance in Velocio Theatre.

Including his shameless confession.

-When I first saw my sister, I was amazed that such a person existed.

Heint had never seen such a thrilled expression on his face. And it was difficult to make sense of everything he said.

But in that conversation there were two points that were quite apparent.

One, Tidwell was very interested in Ravia, and he wanted her to fall into his hands.

Two, for that very reason, Tidwell hypnotized Heint and demanded better treatment for Ravia.

The problem was that Tidwell hypnotized Heint and made him do exactly what he wanted. Tidwell’s actions were never done in good faith but only for personal gain.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Ravia was about to fall into Tidwell’s grasp.

He didn’t just throw away his daughter; he threw her into the snake’s mouth.

His thoughts began to fit together like a puzzle, and realization and regret flooded his mind.

Tidwell’s hypnotic command was all about ‘Ravia is a true Leontine.’

That meant everything Heint felt after removing his prejudice against Ravia had nothing to do with hypnosis.

Filled with regret and anguish, the duke began to recall his daughter’s empty stare. He recalled the mistakes he had made in the past, including the mistakes he had made up to this point.

If Tidwell hadn’t hypnotized him, he would have never realized his own daughter’s condition.

-Then don’t ask me such a question. I thought you’d finally respect my will to some degree.

As he recalled his daughter’s cold tone, his emotions erupted in a flood and overwhelmed him.

How could a man keep making the same mistake?

After recovering from the shock, Heint was determined to fix all the problems.

Fortunately, it didn’t seem that difficult.
