"Are you mocking me?!" He roared.
Dominic shook his head. "Don't misunderstand me. I'm just giving you an option. You are a smart man. I'm sure you understand what I mean."
Leroy took a deep breath to contain his rage.

"Leroy, you built House Durova from scratch. Do you want to see it get destroyed just for the stupid mistake of Harune's crown prince? Think about it carefully before you open your mouth." Dominic reminded with a cold look.
Leroy fell into silence.
After an entire minute, he stared deeply at Dominic and asked in a low voice. "Can you guarantee the safety of my entire family?"
He had seen it for himself. Astania was no longer the weak nation that it was decades ago.
