Chapter 401

Reborn To Remarry My Ex Husband

Chapter 401 Doesn't Count

Robson's expression remained neutral, but he fully grasped the weight of his orders.

For Jake to win by deception would destroy everything Melody had worked to uphold.

It wasn't just about her, either. If Jake followed through, it would tarnish Cleussau's reputation-a name built on fairness and integrity.

The institution itself would become the very force to shatter the principles it once stood for.

On the international stage, Cleussau's prestige and influence would collapse. Its legacy would become a laughingstock.
