Chapter 539

Veikko felt a headache coming as he looked at the furious branch leaders.

It would be difficult for him to turn the tables on his own now that things had turned out this way.

However, could he ask Bailey to take charge of this?

Nothing good would come of letting the Saviors' subordinates know she was in love with Tarragon's leader.

“It might not be Tarragon who tried to assassinate me. Give me a few days to investigate this matter and see whether there is someone else behind this. As for our leader, she has an important affair, so we shouldn't trouble her with small matters like this.”

One of the branch leaders came forward and narrowed his eyes at Veikko. He stated, “Veikko, why do I feel you're trying to protect Tarragon? We have always been at odds with them. Now that they have publicly provoked us, you're advising us to smooth things over instead of retaliating. What are your intentions?”

Veikko's gaze darkened. He understood the situation instantly. Some of the branch leaders were listening and following this person's orders. They were here to fan the flames of conflict and sow discord between the two organizations.

“I'm the person in charge of the Saviors now. Since the leader is not present, I'm the next in line. As for my intentions, I don't want any conflict to arise between both organizations, which would lead to tremendous losses on both sides. But what are your intentions in banding together with the other branch leaders to question me about my intentions?”

The branch leader's expression changed drastically as he started trembling in anger. “Veikko, don't you dare accuse me of something I didn't do! I heard you were attacked and wanted to find out what happened. That's why I suggested going to war with Tarragon. Since you are adamant that it was not done by Tarragon, you should disregard what I just said.”
