After Joe left with Rose, Lord zorander asked to speak with Lord Yancey in his study. As much as he wanted to carry Lawrence in his plans he knew he could not get careless.
"It's about what your son, Joe discovered at the palace before my granddaughter's wedding," Lord Zorander went straight to why he was there.
Lord Yancey looked at the old man before him. He had told lord Zorander because he trusts in his capacity to find out information from the palace.
" your son has miss understand things. The boy in question is not Princess Ellan twin," Lord Zorander made sure his voice was as low as possible. He could not allow someone else to hear this conversation.
"Oh, it was not a guess on our part," lord Yancey replied.
Hmm, Lord Zorander nodded his head. "I know you have always wanted to marry Joe to the princess because you saw it as a way to finally become related with my daughter.." Lord Zorander made a deliberate pause.
"When the time comes my house is going to be divide against itself, as Jane has chosen to marry the prince," lord Zorander bite around the bush.
Lord Yancey simply looked at his father's old friend. If he was not wrong he could already guess that he wanted his help with something.
"As a father, I know this may be a difficult situation. But since your dream to marry Joe to Agatha's daughter has failed, would you let your daughter marry her son?" Lord Zorander asked.
Lord Yancey took a deep breath, Marrying Princess was one thing but an unknown prince? he was not sure if he could let his daughter go through that. Moreover been married to someone like that meant war. the prince would have to fight for his palace and his daughter's life would be in danger.

" I thought you said Joe was wrong?" Lord Yancey asked.
Hmm, Lord Zorander nodded his head. "The real crown prince of Bozoa is not Ellen's twin brother. But my daughter dead son," he explains.
Lord Yancey's jaw dropped as he tried to process the information.
"How is that even possible?" Lord Yancey could not believe his ear. he still remembers that Agatha had given birth to a son in her first year of marriage but he had died as a child. How could he suddenly be alive? It was a reaction everyone who hears the news we have.
"I have seen the young man myself. Apart from the hair color of the royal family he has taken all the features of Agatha," lord Zorander said.
"Hmm, so what do you plan to do?" Lord Yancey asked. He was becoming curious to meet the young man that looked like the love of his life.
"What else is there to do? I have to help him claim back his both rights. this is why I have come to seek your support," lord Zorander replied.
"How do you instead to do that, the young man knows nothing about being royalty. He might end up dead before he is recognized," lord Yancey said.
"You are wrong, the young man grew up in the palace. I am convinced that he would be a better King than Prince William. Moreover, it is better to die trying than not to try at all. Do you expect me to have my grandson hidden as a nobody forever?" lord Zorander replied.
"I understand, but you know as a father, I can't put my daughter's life in so much danger. I can help in any way else," Lord Yancey replied.
"I understand, I am not asking you to marry him off to him. I am just asking for an engagement. A secret engagement. They will only get married once he has proven himself and taken care of his brother." Lord Zorander said.

"What you ask is reasonable but how long would my daughter have to wait. She has to get married in her youthful body," Lord Yancey raised his concern.
"Then the engagement can be called off if the plans take too long. I would understand. But I say to give him one year at the most and everything would be sorted," Lord Zorander said with confidence.
"You seem to be certain, may I know your plans?" Lord Yancey asked. He could still remember how much his late father used to praise the smart mind of his close friend.
"Simple, the Queen is going to announce the existence of the crown prince," lord Zorander informed.
Lord Yancey looked at the man who had aged well. If he did not know better he would have concluded that the man had grown old and could not scheme anymore.
"How is that even possible? I am sure the Quern will try to get rid of him before the king finds out about his existence," lord Yancey pointed out.
"Do not worry about how that will happen. Just think about my request and let me know the answer soon. You know I have to plan a part for him," Lord zorander said.
"I understand, but I will have to sleep over it. Besides, I did have to discuss it with my wife. I also need to make sure that my daughter accepts it," Lord Yancey said.
"The King is hosting a swording competition in two days. You and your family will get to meet him then. after seeing him and watching his capacity then you can decide," Lord Zorander said.
He was already planning to send a secret note to Richard. He hopes the young man would agree to meet him.
"One more thing, none of my sins know about Agatha's son and I would like it to remain like that. Especially since Jane has chosen Prince William as her feature husband." Lord Zorander said.
"Why are you letting her marry him. the Zorander household should unit and support its blood," lord Yancey could not help but voice his thoughts.
"Of course, the household will be united. she has agreed to cut all ties with the family once she became the wife of the prince. But knowing a father love I doubt Robert will just fold his hands and watch his daughter suffer. This is why I have kept the identity of my grandson away from him. Only both of us are currently aware." lord zorander replied.
Lord Yancey simply nodded his head. He could understand why the Lord has made such decisions. "How easy was it for you to chose one grandchild over there other?" Lord Yancey could not stop himself from asking.
"It not that difficult. One grandchild follows after greed and would not listen to me. While the other one was born into the problem. It had nothing to do with his decision but his birth. If you were in my shoes who would you help? Lord Zorander asked him.
Lord Yancey nodded his head since the situation was clear. Jane did not have to marry the prince but she insists. While it was not the young man's fault been born into a royal family.
