319 Confronting The Truth [2]

After exchanging initial greetings and a few more words, Minerva insisted that we both take a seat and kindly offered us some tea.

Placing a platter full of sweets before us, Minerva began a lively gossip session with Amelia and me.

She inquired about the current curriculum at Global Academy and the level of talent among the cadets these days.

I had a feeling that she was mostly interested in any confidential information we could provide her about these talented cadets.

Truly, she lived up to her sobriquet of the Queen of Secrets.

Personally, I had no appetite for snacks or gossip. I was impatiently waiting for her to start talking about my case.

However, I did not want to seem rude so I let her continue the gossip session and did not interrupt. 

After all, aside from knowing about Lucas' past, my goal here was to secure Minerva's alliance for the future.
