Frank was smiling and shaking his head. “He has connections, but he’s still an ordinary human being, which means he’s at our mercy. And if it were really him, I’m sure he’d eventually come to us.” Saddie nodded in agreement that much was true, not to mention that it would be terrible if they attacked Pax, only to find out that Wilhelm was lying all along.

“I’m surprised you’re such a nice guy, Master Lawrence.” Sadie then grinned. “Holding back before you find out if a person is really friend or foe.”

“I’m no angel.” Frank smiled in wry amusement. “Not going after Pax is merely because it’s completely unnecessary.”

Sadie remained silent, though she had to admit that the spiritron vein had perfect judgment, picking such an incredible man to be its owner.

Soon, they returned to Golden Lily and found Ida standing at the doorway, wiping the sweat off her brow, while her clothes were also wet with sweat.

Sadie was left speechless. “What, are you trying to seduce Master Lawrence?”

Ida rolled her eyes. “Look who’s talking. Did you really think everyone is like you, pretending to keep everyone at arm’s reach, when in reality, you just want Master Lawrence to push you down?” Sadie shoved Ida, and they were soon fighting.
