The End Of The Special Contract Marriage (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 167
There were no windows in the interrogation room inside the imperial palace offices.
Damian had been left abandoned for several hours in a place completely walled in, with only the lamp hanging on the wall providing any light.
In truth, it wasn’t such a bad situation for him—it gave him a chance to calmly sort through his thoughts.
Sitting quietly with his arms crossed and eyes closed, he heard the door burst open after a long wait.
Damian slowly opened his eyes. He saw the silver badge on the imperial knights’ uniform, then lifted his gaze further to confirm the other man’s face before speaking softly.
“Lord Diak didn’t come himself, I see.”
“The commander is currently occupied. Besides, he has no need to personally face a despicable man who killed his own brother without a second thought.”
“My guilt hasn’t been clearly established yet, yet you treat me as the culprit already. Is that the code of the Imperial Knights?”
At Damian’s sharp retort, Joseph Miller, the deputy commander of the Imperial Knights, furrowed his brow. He had been assigned to interrogate Damian in place of his superior, Ben Diak.
Unlike Ben Diak, Joseph had no special rapport with Damian. In fact, Joseph had always viewed Damian—with his ever-growing influence rivaling even the Imperial Knights—with suspicion.
“Lord Damian Vandermir, your guilt has been clearly established. You abandoned the knightly code and cruelly murdered your own brother.”
“I did no such thing.”
Damian’s reply was immediate and firm. Joseph, amused, curled the corners of his mouth upward.
“Denial is useless. We’ve already found evidence of your movement from your balcony directly into Lord Vandermir’s chamber.”
“How can you be certain it wasn’t an intruder who slipped into my room? Perhaps someone deliberately left traces to frame me.”
