Chapter 738

"Shane, given your cozy rapport with the Finance Minister, you should be able to pull some strings here tonight. Go clear things up for him, will you?" Finally, she sighed. Shane gave her a look that was both mocking and amused. "Having second thoughts again?"

What did she mean by "again"?

It wasn't like she'd shown this man mercy many times, after all.

"No, it's just that I can't stand by when I see the underdog being bullied, especially since I really can't stand Jarvis," Whitney declared with a feigned sense of righteousness.

Seeing that none of the noblemen dared to step forward and expel Ludwik,

Jarvis quickly stirred the pot, "Ludwik, let go of Liam's hand right now! You've hit someone and still have the audacity to act all high and mighty!"

Shane couldn't stand it anymore and was about to intervene when a stern voice cut through the noise, "What's all this commotion about?"
