Chapter 176

“Any price?”

Andrius peered down at Anthony calmly, seeming emotionless. “Anthony Henderson, you are the richest man in Sumeria, so I’ll show you some respect.”

“The families and companies who used to target or still targeting New Moon Corporation or the Crestfalls…” Andrius‘ expression turned cold. “You know what you should do. Don’t think of fooling me, or I will come after you myself.”
