543 Lurking Traitors

Arabella was troubled since if the next Duke of Ryvaleh would be Narcissa's close-minded father, things would turn difficult since Ryvaleh held much influence in the social circle.

But then again, the nobles were not idiots. Even if the way he thinks influences them, if they realize that The Crown and even the Prime Minister are against it, they will not follow blindly either.

Arabella also knew that there were traitors lurking in the Ryvaleh Household. 

In her past life Ryvaleh was one of the households who tried to make Raymond the Emperor. Because they were closer to him than to Ferdinand, they thought putting him in power would be better for them.

Then, when Icarus and the Secret Alliance attacked Valeria, Ryvaleh was also one of the houses that surrendered immediately. There were also people from Ryvaleh who already had internal arrangements with them.
