The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1813

"The Davis family?" King mused for a moment, "You mean the legendary Davis family that's been around for over a century?"

The Davis family had a notable reputation in Merrywoods, so it was easy to connect with them.

"Yeah," Santos nodded.

King's expression barely changed. He brushed off the concern with a casual, "Those obstacles won't be an issue."

Santos knew all about King's ambitions, but hearing those words reassured him that his decision to join was spot on.

This place truly made him feel like he had a purpose.

Santos's eyes darkened slightly as he glanced up at King again. He hesitated, then began, "Actually, the key..."

Right then, something in his pocket started to squirm, and a flash of gray darted out, zooming away so fast that even King missed it.

Santos stopped mid-sentence.

His little pet wouldn't bolt like that unless it picked up a scent it adored.

With Santos pausing, King gave him a curious look, "What about the key?"

Santos snapped back, shook his head, and changed his tune, "Oh, it's nothing. I just meant I'll grab the key soon, but I've got something to take care of right now."

King sensed a bit of mystery but decided not to push it and waved him off, "Alright, go on."

"Sure thing."

Santos nodded respectfully and turned, striding out with a hint of urgency in his steps.

King narrowed his eyes a bit; Santos was definitely keeping something from him.
