Chapter 417 Reshuffling

"Do you have a plan?" Katherine pursed her lips.

Joaquin chuckled. His sour mood was finally lifted. "Don't look down on me. I'm not as weak as you think."

There was a hint of teasing in his voice, and Katherine blushed. She lowered her voice a little while saying, "I didn't say you were weak."

Joaquin thought she was being coy. He cocked his eyebrow and felt delighted. "Just trust me on this. I can handle things on this side." He then asked, "What about Noah?"

"She just fell asleep." Katherine pursed her lips and tensed up, then she told him about Emmanuel taking Corey away.

Joaquin frowned. "Emmanuel's men went toe-to-toe with the Vermillion Alliance? Impossible."

Katherine's eyes glinted. "I thought it was weird. Even if he wanted Corey, he wouldn't have spent so much money to hire those men."

"So…" Joaquin was silent for a moment. "You suspect it was his benefactor?"

"Yes. Emmanuel had no need to take Corey away. The only explanation is that his benefactor lent his power to him."
