Old Prince Bruch looked at him calmly, "I think if your father were here, he would be ashamed of your actions. Cagel, you know very well what you've done. No one here is a fool, and if you persist, the consequences are beyond what you can bear."
Old Prince Bruch's well-intended advice sounded like a blatant threat to Cagel, and he felt the old prince was overstepping. Although the Bruch Family was stronger than his father's family, they were all nobility. Old Prince Bruch was not giving him any face!
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I will remember today's conversation. I will surely relay it to my father when I return. He has been spending time playing chess with the queen lately, and I wonder if he might say something inappropriate."
Cagel's undisguised threat made everyone gasp, and many found it hard to believe this was the same man who once had a gentlemanly demeanor. Only Hunter looked at An Yiqing with satisfaction, his eyes saying "you're finished."
