"Checkmate, Mongrels"

Despite getting cornered like that, Ainsley was calm. 

She knew that the alchemists wouldn't immediately harm her people since they only wanted to rob her unique potions in the name of 'testing the authenticity'. 

On the other hand, no matter what she did, the alchemists could lie their way out, and the Sloan Family would be the black sheep. 

From the start, this fcker never planned to grant the auction license...or maybe he couldn't even do that! 

For now, the easiest option was indeed to hand over the potion. 

After all, the alchemists also wouldn't kill blindly, especially when the Sloan Family was famous right now. 

But if they had to kill, they would kill without hesitation and could fabricate the whole scene later. 

A dead man tells no story. No one will know the truth aside from the alchemists, the winner. 

Thinking like that, Ainsley let out a sigh. 

'Should I use my charm ability?'
