The hesitation on Kingserp's face was evident to both Emma and SkyStars.
After the recent events, SkyStars seemed less hurried, sensing that Emma was possibly buying time, as she had provided Kingserp with little to no useful information.
Emma, however, kept her gaze fixed on Kingserp.
She was acutely aware of his cunning nature.
Kingserp, a man shrouded in deceit, might launch an attack on her and SkyStars at any moment.
"What's the matter? Don't you dare to take a few steps forward? Weren't you brimming with confidence just moments ago? If that's the case, then taking a certain risk shouldn't be too difficult for you," Emma prodded Kingserp to continue moving forward.
She knew all too well Kingserp's deceitful and suspicious nature.
Her recent actions had already aroused Kingserp's suspicion.
Therefore, it was only natural for him to become more cautious, allowing Emma to use this opportunity to further delay.
