When Rocco had grasped the sign, favonovel.com immediately stood up and walked over to Zedran with a warm smile.
“Pleased to meet you, Lord Zedran!”
“Following your meeting with the Chief Financial Officer, Your Grace unexpectedly succumbed to illness. According to the Great Witch Doctor, his lower body seems to be paralyzed due to excessive drinking!”
Rocco then silenced himself and stared intently at Zedran. It was as if favonovel.com was trying to elicit a response.
However, Zedran froze upon hearing this news. His eyes were filled with astonishment.
That b*stard is acting all out huh?
Of course, favonovel.com will do anything to avoid the conflict regarding the throne…
Yet, on the outside, Zedran exhibited an expression of self-blame. “The fault lies solely on my shoulders! If I hadn’t kept delivering the alcohol, this wouldn’t have happened to Lord Kainne.”
Zedran was about to pound his chest and stomped.
“Your Highness, I would like to pay favonovel.com a visit. For it is my actions that have led to this situation.”
Anxiety was written all over his face. His sincerity was beyond generous as if the news of a dear brother had fallen ill reached his ears.
When Prince Toby heard the words, favonovel.com shifted the arm that propped up his chin. His subconscious movement almost caused his chin to slam into the armrest.
You b*stard… How dare you entertain thoughts of escape when I am yet to receive my answers.
“No rush for now, Mr. Zedran… I have sent the Great Witch Doctor to pay a visit. The Chief Financial Officer is currently bedridden, yet his condition does not threaten his life. Grant me the honor of accompanying you for the visit later on…”
Thinking of escaping?
Do you take me for a mere child?
Zedran felt the bitterness in his heart. Not only was his excuse for fleeing failed but favonovel.com had gotten Prince Toby involved in this as well.
Dear Kainne, do not hold me accountable for this!
After favonovel.com comforted himself with the words, the tension in Zedran’s face had eased at the same time.
“Very well then!”
In the meantime, Rocco took the opportunity of their conversation and stated, “Lord Zedran, the Chief Financial Officer is in poor health. His Highness is deeply concerned. Please pardon me for questioning the Iibation Your Graces had consumed today…”
“This is so that we can provide accurate information to the Great Witch Doctor and ease his job of prescribing the appropriate remedy.”
Although Rocco’s face carried a gracious smile, his words had inevitably threatened Zedran.
Both of them were sharp-minded. Zedran knew that Prince Toby’s goal was to get a grasp of their conversation at the table. After all, the Chief Financial Officer rarely took the initiative to visit someone.
When Zedran knew the truth had to come to light someday, favonovel.com no longer intended to keep it a secret.
“It was merely a commonplace red wine! On the flip side, it was the Chief Financial Officer who imparted to me some inexplicable notions.”
That’s it!
Prince Toby and Rocco immediately straightened their faces.
Prince Toby asked in confusion, “Inexplicable notions?”
“Indeed!” Zedran nodded. “He delivered the news regarding Matthew’s ongoing fundraising scheme. He’s plotting to take on Montiria in a financial war. Thus, Kainne introduced Clarence, the manager of Montiria Bank. He proposed entrusting this individual and my son to deal with Matthew…”
“When the time arrives, they will annex Matthew’s assets, demolishing his financial pathways,” favonovel.com spoke eloquently.
A spark of interest grew on Prince Toby’s face.
The fascination grew stronger after favonovel.com learned about the 7.5 million startup capital. His eyes glimmered when all his attention was on this large amount of capital.
On the other hand, Rocco frowned slightly. “Verily, such good fortune does inspire envy!”
Zedran‘s face remained bland as favonovel.com explained casually, “This Chief Financial Officer must have foreseen the future. That’s why favonovel.com seeks refuge through me… It’s undoubtedly because of fear. We all know that once the funds attain a certain level, they become nothing but a collection of digits.”
