In a room that had been emptied within the Golden Eagle, Gu Ding and Lilliath sat opposite Tricke.
"Tell us, why did you hire Bregen to abduct Lili?" Gu Ding asked with a grim expression on his face. Even though Gu Ding usually had a sunny demeanor about him on normal days, he looked pretty scary when he was serious. His expression alone was enough to get Lilliath to sit quietly at the side. She did not dare say a word.
"It really wasn't my idea. It was our little young master's idea… No, I mean, it was the idea of the Childe family's little young master." After what Tricke experienced at the Old George tavern, he was not willing to step on Gu Ding's tail. That was because each and every member of Gu Ding's crew was scarier than the last. Being in their midst, Tricke felt that he could lose his life at any time. That was why he did not dare to lie.
