The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 194 One Hundred and Eighty-Four

He glued his lips on her ear as he whispered, “If you don’t correct what you just said, my love, I’m going to pull you into a deep kiss in front of all these people.”

Lucianne’s eyes widened in horror, making Xandar chuckled softly as he stroked her shoulder with his thumb and waited. Lucianne leaned into him before she whispered shyly, “MY indecent beast.”

He smiled radiantly, and pecked a kiss on her temple before he whispered back, “Always and forever, my little freesia.”

As soon as Xandar returned his sights to Whitlaw, he caught Mr Clark quickly averting his gaze right after looking at his mate, so he muttered, “If this trial takes too long, Clark is not going to survive it. I’ve been wanting to gouge his eyes out since yesterday.”

Lucianne stroked his rough hand as she cooed, “Shh…I’m with you, Xandar. Only you.” He took in a greedy whiff from her hair to calm the growling animal in his head, and to calm himself as he started listening to what the prosecutor was asking Whitlaw.

“Mr Whitlaw, you own watches from the most luxurious brands, and you make it a point to buy up limited edition sports cars. How did you come about affording these with your annual salary?”

“Those were gifts.” Whitlaw’s answer was instant.

The prosecutor asked, “Gifts from whom?”

Pierre Whitlaw explained nonchalantly, “My wife and her family are extremely successful business people. They gift me all sorts of branded items on various occasions.”

The prosecutor asked, “So, you’re saying that the government funds which entered into your account were untouched?”

“You clearly have evidence that shows otherwise. Although I admit knowing that the missing Duke channeled some kind of money into my account to force my silence, I do not admit knowing where the money had come from or where it had gone to.”

“You didn’t know that the money being channeled into your account was rightfully the government’s?”

“No.”
