Casper reclined on the plush leather sofa, his gaze inadvertently catching Wesson’s, sparking a flicker of surprise in his eyes.

Casper had long wanted to forge ties with Wesson, given his considerable sway in Gruinia, but the right opportunity had never presented itself. And now, here was Wesson, unexpectedly at this gathering.
