"Why?" she asked, her voice laced with confusion. He really didn't need to get involved in this mess.
From a business perspective, the Stevens Family was just starting to expand into Shen City.
Right now, they should've been focused on building a solid relationship with Jeffrey.
If they offended him at this stage, the Stevens Family's future in Shen City would be nothing but endless roadblocks.
"If I said I don't care who I offend for you, would you believe me?" His gaze locked onto hers, steady and unwavering.
Josephine froze. Her heart skipped a beat as a rush of emotions surged through her chest, bubbling up until she could hardly breathe.
How much of what he said was real… and how much was just empty words?
But, at this moment, she didn't care. She found herself wanting to believe him, almost against her will.
