Yuri lowered his head.
"I knew you wouldn't come, sir. But I needed you to speak to them, otherwise, things would have escalated. We are not sure what your father is planning."

Yuri bit his lips, sneaking a glance at Nikolai, who was already swallowing hard in fear.
"Sir, please calm down. I'm not sure I can explain to you with the state you are in," Yuri said.
Caesar arched a brow at him.
