Luna stood up and headed straight downstairs. "Put the gun away. We're leaving!"
Then, she warned, "Zachary, this blind loyalty of yours isn't a good thing. Maybe Andrew used to be something
special. But now he's just a mediocre businessman playing petty tricks and feeling smug about it.
"His pursuit of money and fwill make him increasingly corrupt and ordinary! Eventually, you'll realize this
person isn't worth dying for!"
She cand went like a storm, her moves swift and ruthless.
To Luna, a person's life or death could be decided in mere seconds, and it was how she carried herself in the
entire province.
Zachary held Ruth in his arms and shouted, "I don't care who Andrew is now. That's not what matters. But as his
friend, I'll always believe in him. What you dismiss as mediocrity merely reflects your own horizon. Beyond that
horizon are taller summits that you haven't reached yet."
Downstairs, Luna paused briefly, and her eyes turned icy cold.
Taller summits that she had not reached?
She could not help but wonder if Zachary was implying that she could not reach Andrew's level. Nonetheless, she
dismissed it as blind worship and pathetic delusion.
Ruth trembled with fear, "Zac, why didn't you cooperate with General Phelan? I'm so scared! Someone like her
could take my life anytshe wanted!"
Zachary smiled reassuringly. "Don't be afraid. If she really wanted to kill someone, neither of us would survive. |
don't think I've offended her, so she has no reason to act."

Ruth stammered, "B-But Zac, why would you risk your life rather than give her the information she wanted?"
Zachary took a deep breath and suddenly chuckled. "Because that person is worth risking my life for, no matter
what! However, she's not someone to mess with because she has the military behind her, and the military
connects to Chetvine! | need to find a chance to tip off Captain!"
As soon as Luna got in the car after leaving Aroma Exchange, her expression becice-cold.
Leslie was terrified. Whenever this happened, it meant only that Luna was angry.
"He's hiding his background well, but that doesn't mean | can't dig it out," Luna muttered through gritted teeth.
Leslie tried to ease the tension and asked, "General, Andrew isn't that important, is he? If you wanted to crush
him, it'd be as easy as flipping your hand."
Luna scoffed. If | really wanted to destroy him, wouldn't be going through at this. | want to expose everything,
including his origins and his secrets. | want them all laid bare. | admit that Andrew's medicine and martial arts
skills are exceptional, but now he's even openly ignoring me?"
She continued, "I'm starting to suspect he's a planted pawn sent by one of the other two Titans. Or worse... a
hidden piece from Chetvine's camp, embedded in Gabo Creek."
Leslie was stunned. "That can't be
right, can it? The Driscoll family
would love nothing more than to wipe him off the map! And Chetvine? That's a nest of elites and
over
aristocrats, Holtrien's most dangerous stronghold. Andrew doesn't even seem qualified to be their pawn!"
Luna smirked, "Mr. Driscoll Senior
loves to play the long game, with
smoke and mirrors, loops and traps.

Luna shot him a cold glance. "Their people all lost to him. Or have you forgotten?" Leslie shut her mouth
immediately, choking on her words.
