Richard's POV:

When Sylvia brought up the moon grass, I secretly let out a sigh of relief since I had already had my men uprooted the moon grass before Ethan came here. But the damned bitch had apparently taken a video. I nearly had a panic-stricken meltdown. Fortunately, my father chose to side with me.
