Miss Linda's Tirade

Chapter 1020 

After Alexander had finished his meeting with Lady Miranda and Lord Cassius that morning, he had spent much of the post time trying to think of an offer he could offer to Miss Linda that would satisfy both sides.

And this was the best he could come up with- letting the infant Quentin become the head of the family while Lady Miranda acted as his regent while he came of age.

Thus the plan was to basically replace Marcus with his cousin.

This way, Miss Linda would be able to at last gain the throne that she had oh so desired, while Lady Miranda would still be able to run the family as she had been for the last four years, letting things keep spinning as they were.

As for what happens when Quentin comes of age, that was a problem for then.

But Alexander suspected Lady Miranda would be able to cement her power within that time to kick Quentin off the ladder.
