Becoming impatient, the duke reached for the letter.
“May I?” he inquired, snatching the letter away. “It appears your solicitor, Mr. Bartlett, has been successful in dissuading the authorities from making a formal inquiry into the matter. Lord Carrington’s death was deemed an accident.”
“An accident?” Alyssa repeated dully.
“Perkins, bring the brandy,” Morgan ordered when he saw her wretched state. As Perkins shakily complied, the duke clasped Alyssa’s cold hands tightly. Instantly she felt co
...mforted by the warmth and strength of his touch.
“Drink this,” Morgan commanded, placing a glass filled with a generous portion of brandy in her left hand. “It will help to steady your nerves.”
Ignoring his order, she repeated her question. “How can it be ruled an accident?” A trace of desperation entered her voice. “Shouldn’t there be an inquiry to determine if there was any foul play?”
“That will be all, Perkins,” the duke said, dismissing the butler. As soon as they were alone, he once again took Alyssa’s hand.
