Huo Yirong's seriousness seemed to puzzle Nicholas.
Nicholas couldn't understand why the brothers would reject an arrangement that only required a formality from the Huo Family and wouldn't put Master Huo in any danger from the Vampire Wraiths. Besides, the Bolin Family even promised to provide a lucrative business opportunity.
Regardless, Nicholas wasn't prepared to push it any further.
Wrapping his arm around Huo Yirong's shoulder and smiling, he assured, "No next time."
Huo Yirong sneered with a mocking expression, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. If your sister gets involved with my younger brother, no one knows whether the Vampire Ghosts will harm him or not.
If my brother's safety is at stake, the Huo Family won't tolerate even the slightest mishap. You should understand that anyone or any force threatening my brother is making an enemy of the entire Huo Family."
