Lady once doubted whether this swindler had changed his nature, as he not only voluntarily cut his own asking price drastically but was also willing to put the agreement between them on paper.
A contract is still quite a serious matter; generally, once it's made, it must be executed, and if one is unwilling to execute it, they can seek enforcement through the courts.
This made it difficult for Geoff to deceive Lady out of her money anymore, and his claiming to have a solution to the young lady's current predicaments was like a traveler trudging through the desert sighting an oasis to Miss Rabbit.
However, Lady always felt that something was not quite right, though she couldn't pinpoint it immediately.
The young lady thought for a moment, then asked, "The Second Prince and the Life Church..."
"There's no relation," said Geoff, "His Highness and his mother still worship the god of strength and courage."
"Is that so."
