Chapter 164
The next morning, Xandar scrolled through the headlines on his phone while he waited for Lucianne to fix her hair, which already looked perfect to him. After reading a few articles on the corruption case, he smiled, and picked the best one as he approached his beautiful mate. His arms crept around her waist from behind as he handed his phone to her and said, “Have a read, sweetheart.”
Xandar inhaled Lucianne’s scent from her neck when she skimmed through the article. It reported on the trial, and reproduced the statement the four of them collectively wrote while they were in the court cafeteria the previous day.
When Lucianne reached the end of the statement, her body stiffened. Her widened eyes were still fixed on the screen when she asked, “Why is my name above yours?”

Pierre Whitlaw explained nonchalantly, “My wife and her family are extremely successful business people. They gift me all sorts of branded items on various occasions.”The prosecutor asked, “So, you’re saying that the government funds which entered into your account were untouched?”“You clearly have evidence that shows otherwise. Although I admit knowing that the missing Duke channeled some kind of money into my account to force my silence, I do not admit knowing where the money had come from or where it had gone to.”“You didn’t know that the money being channeled into your account was rightfully the government’s?”“No.”&n

Christian complained, “With that whole line of bullsh*t answers and he needs to wait until after lunch to reach a verdict? I bet Russell could decide faster.” Annie glared at her husband and said in a stern, hushed tone, “Tone down, Christian.” The Duke’s temperament cooled to a point where a small smile graced his features as he lifted one of Annie’s hands to plant a kiss on it. Then, he whispered, “As you wish, my Duchess.” Lucianne’s eyes shone when she whispered to Xandar like an excited child, “Look at them, they’re so cute. It’s like getting a front row seat to a romantic movie.” Her body subconsciously leaned into her mate’s, and her adorable demeanor was so irresistible that it made Xandar crave to h

In secret, he took mental notes on the locations he could use to place the hidden recording devices that he hid in his slightly oversized shoes when he left his apartment.So, thanks to the device near the fireplace, the Duke heard the whole conversation between the mother and daughter. His animal growled at the mention of demolishing Blue Crescent as the Kylton’s ‘contingency plan’, and Greg thanked Goddess that he was alone in his dark room pretending to be asleep when he eavesdropped.But he had a good laugh with his animal when Kelissa said that she wasn’t stupid. She couldn’t even keep him under her reins. Her chauffeur didn’t even check his shoes for the recording device

Access name: Chameleon. But I'll admit right now that we've never spoken over the phone in your transactions, your Grace. We have our customers' personal information but the uh...rogue Alpha handles the communications and customers'...requests."

“You’re really difficult to impress, aren’t you, your Grace?” Lord Kylton noted in amusement before he uttered, “But I’m happy to say that bankrupting the government wasn’t the end. In fact, it was the beginning of the end. Knowing Xandar and Christian, we gathered that they would transfer the monarchy’s funds to sustain the government if the government funds were emptied. So, the end goal was to wait until both those funds dried up. And when the King and his second-in-command have nowhere else to turn for money, our family would make a sudden appearance to…”“Offer financial support.” Greg muttered when he caught up, and he continued, “In exchange, you’d demand that the King take your daughter’s hand in marriage.”“Bravo, your Grac
