Chapter 416 A Woman

Oliver picked up the woodcarving and carving knife on the table and said coldly, “Now, let’s talk about the goods.”

“Aren’t you aware of what happened to those goods, Mr. Xavier?” Christopher rested his head on his hand as he looked at Oliver’s hands. “You know I almost died in Druobridge, right?”

Oliver casually said, “You’re back here alive, are you not?”

“Yeah, I’m alive.” Christopher sneered. “I just don’t know if you’re happy about me returning to Juxshire alive, Mr. Xavier.”

Oliver opened his eyes and looked at him. “Are you blaming me?”

Christopher smirked. “I’m not blaming you. I just feel a little displeased that I’m being fooled like a monkey. Now that I think about it, I don’t even have the right to feel displeased, do I?”

Oliver smiled. “It seems you’ve thought things through clearly.”

“Only when one thinks things through that one makes no mistakes.” Christopher poured himself another cup of coffee and drank it slowly. “Anyway, the deal failed, and I am responsible for your huge loss, Mr. Xavier. What do you want to do? Just say the word.”

Oliver did not answer immediately.

The room was quiet for a while.

Christopher pondered for several seconds. “I did not go to the deal site, so I’m unsure of the specifics of the situation. Besides, I went into hiding lately and did not have the opportunity to understand the situation. Judging from the results, it must be because the transaction information was leaked in advance.”

“Oh?” Oliver dragged his voice. He paused and looked up at Christopher, asking. “Then, how do you think the news was leaked?”

Christopher met his eyes and grinned. “Are you suspecting me, Mr. Xavier? Ignoring that I wasn’t even at the trading site, I also do not know the specific location of the transaction.”
