"They're not going to start a fight, are they?"
Inside the Green Leaf Tavern, Xiya La, Lady Huiyue, and Lady Cummings sat at a table, while William, who was sitting nearby, couldn't help but mutter under his breath.
It was noon, and the tavern had not yet opened its doors, but that Lady Huiyue seemed to have quite the influence, requisitioning the place as a temporary meeting room with a single sentence.
Of course, what she said was "50 Contribution Points per hour."
"They are here to talk business, why would they start a fight?"
Across from him, Duoduo smiled: "But you, the nominal person in charge of this deal, let your mother sit there."
William pursed his lips, looking at Lady Cummings with a gaze filled with tenderness.
"My mother only tends not to get lost in her thoughts when dealing with these matters. If this helps her step out of that shadow, I'm willing to do nothing at all."
"That's right, business is a woman's best cosmetic medicine," Duoduo said offhandedly.
