Chapter 144 CLASH IN THE DEVIL'S CAMP!

LEONARD'S POV

"I asked you to get me money, Catherine, and what did you bring back? Nothing but yourself," I snapped, swirling the amber liquid in my glass before taking a deliberate sip. My tone was sharp, cutting through the tension in the room like a blade. I leaned back in my chair, my gaze fixed on her, unyielding. "How hard is it to ask a man who's head over heels for you for money? How hard?"

She shifted uneasily, her lips pressed into a thin line. Her silence only fueled my irritation. I slammed the glass onto the table, the sound reverberating through the room. "The amount I asked you to get from him is nothing but a chicken change to the Wolf Creed company," I continued, my voice dripping with disdain. "A mere fraction of what they make in a single deal. And yet, you failed me."
