This heir has never disappointed him.
Neither in the past nor in the present.
He personally witnessed the growth of this child and still believes that his judgment is not mistaken.
Meanwhile.
Countless people in front of television screens, countless people in front of computer screens...
Countless hands were raised in applause for the man about to be crowned the new king.

Inside the hotel's guest room.
The television was also broadcasting the entire announcement. Phoebe sat on the sofa, staring at the man on the screen, holding a glass of red wine suspended in midair, never bringing it to her lips.
Until Lucas Walker uttered that final sentence.
A smile curled across his lips. He brought the glass to his lips and drained the red wine in one gulp.
The assistant walked over, "Sir, a man claiming to be Gray wishes to see you."
Phoebe placed the empty glass on the coffee table, "Let him in."
