"Mister Derkley! Mister Jonas! I think it''s best that we don''t approach the guy Mister Mondorra''s after. I couldn''t even work up the courage to attack him. He''s too powerful. Also, I have a feeling that the two girls Rabbick kidnapped might cause the downfall of Mondorra''s n! You have to trust me! I would never make something like that up, and I''ve got a conclusion to all of this. I think we might be able to turn this around into an opportunity for us, as long as we stay in ourne..."
Peele had reported the entire run-in with Wilbur to Derkley and Jonas first thing upon returning to the manor.
Of course, both Derkley and Jonas believed Peele without a shred of doubt. After all, Peele was one of the family''s most trusted staff members.
"I trust you, Peele. I can see the fear in your eyes, which I have never seen before! I guess it takes a truly powerful person to be sought after so urgently by Mister Mondorra! Well, we''ll just pretend we never saw him, then. You can go and get ready. Tell those people who saw the guy to keep their mouths shut, or I''ll be more than happy to shut them up myself," said Derkley.
Jonas looked at Derkley for a beat before saying as well, "Dad, should we wait until Mister Erin gets here to talk about this? If this guy really is as powerful as Peele said he is, we could give Peele''s n a try and make use of this opportunity! If that idiot Rabbick actually bes the heir to Mondorra''s control, we''re all screwed! He might not dare to do anything to Mister Erin out of fear, but he won''t hesitate to crush us!"
Derkley nodded in agreement. "You''re not wrong. We should n this out properly. How about this? Mister Erin''s already on the way to Fenler, so you can go looking for him personally to ask him what he thinks! If Mister Erin''s still the same and not interested in any power, we should be thinking of a backup n. But if Mister Erin''s out for power, we''re obviously going to give him all the support he needs to take the throne!"
After speaking to Jonas, Derkley turned to Peele. "Since Ketta ising with the Four Dark Shadows, you can go looking for him and try to get some information out of him. Of course, if Ketta has a n in mind, we can give him some amount of support as well. As long as Rabbick is not the one in power at the end, we''d be benefitting regardless of whoever wins!"
"Alright!"
Peele nodded at Derkley''s order and n and left the manor with Jonas.
Meanwhile, Wilbur, Betty, and Monica had just started driving out of Fenler when they ran into an ident.
Of course, there were no casualties in the ident. In fact, there were not even any wounded.
