The Wolf’s Bride by Coffee’s Tea

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.”

Anthony looked up at Andrius, horrified, but was forced to accept it.

Behind Anthony, Suletta was on her knees. Her hair was messed up and her face was pale, and when she heard the final ultimatum, she quivered as well.

Suletta blacked out as well.

“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.”

Thump!
