The silence was overwhelming, no one expected such a comment from Madame Hart, after all, she was Kian Hart's mother. However, they all turned to look at the beautiful green-eyed, red-haired woman with different eyes.
"Extort?"
"What did she mean by that?"
It was incredible to think that Kian Hart could be extorted, but if that woman could do it, they must know her secret. Then the rumor about Kian Hart's weakness would spread to all corners of the world, and whoever had the power to go against him, could make use of his weakness.
The public was more than attentive to the words of Madame Hart.
"If it weren't for Ma..." before she said anything else, the event lights suddenly went out as if a strange cloud had invaded the venue.
Some screamed but most stayed still. A strange aura of restlessness and dominance could be felt at the same time. They could not move from their places.
