"Hey, Helton. Tell me your plan for this. You're the one who dragged us into this trade. You better have a backup plan," Lord Bolton said coldly.
The other nobles immediately nodded in agreement.
"Please calm yourselves, my lords. Everything is still under control. This is merely... a mishap in our plan," Helton replied calmly while playing with one of the cicadas crawling on his finger.
He was the youngest among all the lords gathered in the room. While the others already had heads full of white hair, Helton still possessed slick black hair combed neatly backward with oil.
"At this moment, I've already ordered my men to evacuate the warehouse. Besides, I've also met with the leader of the Five Scorpions. He and his group will do their best to protect our business." Helton said calmly.
"Do you know that the Count has already assembled a special force to stop us? Are the Five Scorpions really capable of defeating them?" Lord Wigan asked worriedly.
