Scores not outstanding
The royal council meeting was held according to plan. It was a day before the crown prince ritual. On this day Robert and Lawrence arrived at the royal palace at the same time.
Although Lawrence has not been in Bozoa for a few years lord Zorander kept sending him messages. So he was well informed about what has been going on.
"Brother," Robert called when he met Lawrence at the entrance of the palace. He might have been busy for a few days, he still heard about his brother moving out of the Zorander resident.
Robert was in a very good mood, Lawrence moving out means he had no intention of fighting against him from the property their father had handed over to him. Robert knew deep down that his brother was more competent than him.
He was hoping of shifting more of the responsibility to Lawrence. As long as Lawrence managed the household under his leadership the praise and the success would be his.
