Chapter 34
Xander frowned and glanced at Monica. His implication was evident. The troublemaker was me. Monica tightly bit her lip, wanting to resort but not daring to
Alexander’s expression turned cold and indifferent. He calmly said, “This matter can be negotiated. They can reach an out–of–court settlement. otherwise, if we really investigate further, Leopold’s true character will be exposed. Then it won’t be us seeking cooperation with them, but them begging for cooperation.”
Smart people could tell easily that Leopold was proficient at such tricks. If it had been investigated further, Leopold wouldn’t only have suffered an injury on his head,
The Jimenez family would suffer as a result. The Jimenez family took advantage of the fact that Leopold was being attacked and made a fuss, hoping to gain more benefits in cooperation. There was room for negotiation on business.
Xander looked at Alexander with satisfaction and said, “Fine, do as you said. You are the alpha, I’m just few years elder than you.”
Ryan clenched his fist and retorted, “No way! That bastard almost. How can Ava accept an out–of- -court settlement? Isn’t that the same as admitting that she tacitly approved of Leopold’s actions?”

Upon hearing him say these words himself, I heard my own rapid and unrhythmic breathing. I bit my lip, trying my best to keep myself from making any sound. Until I swallowed the taste of blood in my mouth, along with all the grievances.
He was right. I had no choice but to do it. Not only for the sake of myself but also for Monica and Ryan. I’m too weak; taking down a warrior family is an impossible task for me
I raised my eyes to meet Alexander’s gaze and smiled, “Well, Uncle Alexander, are you satisfied?”
Alexander’s hand, which had been twirling his ring, paused for a moment. He simply nodded, still the same ruthless businessman in the realm of

I’m tired. I won’t see you off.”
After speaking. I turned over in bed, with my back facing Alexander. Alexander walked out of the ward, his face gloomy.
