At the office, Ciel's mind raced as he thought of many things. He had been thinking of Derek Renwick.The man who had taken everything from his wife, Roxanne. He confiscated her mother's fortune, which was meant to secure Roxanne's future, and that of her brother.And now, Derek had been living in wealth, from the proceeds of the inheritance meant for Roxanne, and her brother.Compared to his family, the inheritance isn't much.
