398 Waiting To See Him Fail

The next time that Howard and Rutherford exited their carriage was when they reached the Palace where the banquet was to be held.

This was the venue for their every year banquet so the Earl was already well-acquainted with this place.

This Palace was different from the Main Palace where the King's Throne room was as this one had a larger ballroom where the gathering could be held.

"Ready?" Rutherford polled while glancing at his son who stood beside him.

Howard's nod made the man smile after which the two resumed their stoic faces.

One old and one young but two men with similar appearances were seen entering the banquet hall where many had already arrived.

The men who had their eyes set on Rutherford were now assessing the young boy who was walking next to him.

They were aware of his identity as the sole heir of the St. Claire's family and were eager to see how he would perform today.
