Chapter 722

‘If I agree with Shane, I’ll drag my whole family down. I wouldn’t dare to go against Ms. Bonita even if I had a hundred times the courage!’ Shane was shocked and puzzled upon hearing Xavier’s refusal. The former thought Xavier would agree since the Knights and Sheffyns had been rivals for many years. Therefore, Shane was confident that cooperating with Xavier would be easy. He did not expect Xavier to refuse so decisively. ‘Xavier talking about internal conflicts is nonsense! He brought everyone in line when he took over his family years ago. The Sheffyns have been growing stronger under his leadership ever since!’ Shane refused to believe there would be internal strife within the Sheffyns. He knew Xavier made it up to reject him. ‘Why did Xavier reject me? No matter how hard I rack my brains, I can’t think of a reason.’ As he was in deep thought, Xavier’s voice broke the silence, “I advise you not to go against the Knights, Shane. Just focus on your family and grow peacefully.”
