Chapter 411 The Scalpel Destroyed Her Trust In Brian (Part Two) (1/2)
Mr. Deng grinned to himself. He was an experienced man, and wouldn't dare reveal his true feelings in front of them. ”We feel regret and guilty for what happened in Phoenix Mountain, and we will give great importance to the matter.”
Richie and Frank snorted to themselves at his bureaucratic tone as Richie put on a tiny smile. ”Mr. Deng, the military attacked the royal members of Dragon Island for no reason. I believe that would court international disapproval,”
Richie said casually like he was talking about the weather. But his words came as a shock to Mr. Deng, whose heart stopped in his throat. The international profile and importance of Dragon Island were rising. Though the problem seemed to have been resolved for now, Mr. Deng knew that if they didn't handle it properly, Dragon Island would stir up the issue.

It has been over twenty years since Justin had done all that horrible stuff in Dragon Island. We're not going to bother with that now. I'm sure that no one wants to start a fight now, and we all want to solve these problems properly and quickly. That's why Richie and I are here.”
Frank's smile and gentle tone made Mr. Deng believe that things had taken a turn for the better. But the words that followed made Mr. Deng's mood hit the bottom. ”However, I have a major flaw in my character. I attach great importance to my family members and will
