Chapter 188 A Business Proposition

Rupert, wise beyond his years, confidently stated, "I know where my dad usually goes. I'll take you there."

Calista nodded and took her leave after setting the time. Once outside, she turned to Derek and instructed, "Stay here. If anyone comes looking for trouble, chase them away immediately." "Got it." Derek didn't utter a single word of nonsense and just stayed right there.
