Chapter 973

As Lysander made his exit, a parade of hulking bodyguards fell into step behind him, their commanding presence leaving the hotel in a formidable procession of power.

The moment they were out of sight, the hotel manager, who had been bracing himself against the onslaught of his intimidating guest, finally allowed his trembling body to collapse onto the floor. His face buried in his hands as he wept.

“What am I going to do? My life’s work is in ruins, I’m bankrupt. My family, they’re all counting on me…” the manager sobbed, his voice steeped in despair. “You’ve been profiting from other people’s misery, and shutting down might be the best thing for the public good.

To possess knowledge of such wrongdoing and yet allow it to fester, to take no action to rectify the situation, was tantamount to profiting from evil. Shutting down the hotel was a mere slap on the wrist for the manager. He deserved to lose everything, to be thrown behind bars, to truly understand the depths of despair.
