Dominic’s heart raced when he saw the Prince and took a nervous step forward. “Greetings, Your Highness!”

The Prince’s dark eyes stared at Dominic as he spoke, emphasizing each word, “Dominic. Who is Darryl really? How do you know him?”

Dominic took a deep breath and replied carefully, “I met him at San Morio City. He’s a knowledgeable and capable man.”

“What’s his relationship with the Blood Hand Organization?”

“Your Highness, Darryl has no connection to the Blood Hand Organization at all.” Dominic appeared serious as he spoke, but on the inside, he was panicking.

Darryl had mentioned to him before a little about his connection with the Blood Hand Organization, but Dominic knew he could not mention it. The Blood Hand Organization was a sensitive topic amongst the six principalities. He would also get implicated if he admitted Darryl’s connection.

“How can you be so sure?” the Prince asked coldly, squinting slightly.

“I…” Dominic blushed, not knowing how to respond.

Bang!
