Chapter 72

Xandar groaned in frustration when Lucianne stopped him from kissing her on her lips. Christian chuckled while Juan pressed back a smile.

Lucianne pushed herself off the table, joining the rest of the alliance on their feet. Xandar held her firmly by her waist to make sure she didn’t go any further. He pecked a kiss on her temple before he turned to everyone and said, “Wu Bi Corp is a company that Lucy, Christian, I and a few others have been investigating for a few days. When we hit a dead end, Christian and I pulled some strings. But our contacts haven’t been able to dig up anything yet.

I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t manage to find them before they cost the lives of so many innocent people.”
