Erwan stood frozen, his gaze shifting nervously between the Monterias and the Zhaos, hoping someone would come to his aid. But no one moved. His entire life, he had been shielded from the consequences of his actions, the Zhao name acting as his safety net. As the young master and heir, he had always believed he was entitled to make mistakes, confident that others would clean up his messes. This time, he expected no different.

His audacity knew no limits and went as far as totally convinced he could have both sisters and everyone would still acquiesce to his whims.
