Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 1141

Kyle was unaware of the matter. He had assumed David was the previous Earl of Silverstone.

"Didn't David inherit the title? Could it be that the people Sage Adrian sent to investigate made an error?" asked Kyle.

"We'll know once we ask Jacob," Rafael responded promptly.

Jacob was invited to the study and asked about the events involving the Prince family from years ago. He did know some details about it—he was familiar with the matters of each noble family, going back three generations, though only to a certain extent.

"Yes, Mr. David never inherited the title. At the time, the then Earl of Silverstone, Vincent Prince, was still ill and hadn't appointed a successor. After Mr. David returned with military achievements, he requested to be made heir. Once he became the heir, Mr. Vincent's health began to improve and he eventually made a full recovery.

"Because of that, the passing of the title was postponed. I'm not entirely sure what happened after that, but Mr. Vincent later appointed his eldest grandson, Mr. Oliver, as the successor. Clearly, something went awry, though it's unclear to outsiders and I'm not certain either. Those who might know are likely the elders from the Silverstone family and, of course, Madam Prince."

The situation had suddenly become much more complex.

If David hadn't inherited the title at that time, could it really be said that Isaac had brought good luck to him? But when Isaac was born, David was made heir to the title. When Isaac was sent away at five years old, David had yet to inherit the title.

It sounded like Isaac actually brought good luck to Vincent instead of David.

In any case, something was off about the situation. It seemed the elders themselves might be unaware of the truth. The only person who might know was Evelyn.

"Perhaps we should stop investigating. Let Isaac make the decision. It's enough to know what we do now. Whatever he chooses, we'll support him," Carissa suggested.

This was Isaac's matter to resolve. He had the authority to decide how to proceed, and whatever made him comfortable would be the course they followed.

Still, Carissa couldn't help but feel sorry for Isaac. In the past, they hadn't been particularly close. One reason was his reputation as a libertine, often frequenting places of ill repute. The second reason was that he always acted arrogantly and didn't take anything seriously.
