Successor (2)
As the news of the supposed child spread in the news outlets from that single anonymous post which had read, 'Thalia Mirabel Thebes already has a son old enough to be in school!'
The general public and media were not the only people with interest in this. For them, it was just the speculation and entertainment aspect of the gossip derived from the elite of their society.
Elsewhere in Milas, Hiddenburg, some individuals were not happy at all when they heard this news. Even though the post had a tinge of uncertainty to it, one particular person among them was furious!
"All our plans will go down the drains if this is true!"
"I think that we need a backup plan at this moment!"
"What backup plan?! Just proceed as we have been doing! Everything will fall back on track very soon. Besides, whatever child there is, it still remains a child, and we can just deal with it before any proper announcements are made! …. Isn't our problem non-existent now?"
