"Konrad, what are you doing here? I told you that I was in a private meeting." Brunhilda said, her tone and expression chastising.
"I'm here to do what you can't mother. You're still being too soft on Liesel. After all the training equipment, and physical augmentations that were given to her, she does owe us. I can't believe that you plan on just letting her go with well wishes. After seducing this guy and abandoning us, it's clear that she had her sights set on become the family head's successor. She might have fooled you, but not me."
Brunhilda looked aghast by her son's outburst, but Marcus' mind was carefully examining his words.

Yet, there was something he felt warranted more attention.
'The way he was talking. It's almost like he knew what our conversations were about.'
