"You're all useless. Do you think I'm someone just anyone can walk in and meet?" "She said she's here to discuss something about your son." Because it concerned the heir, they had dared report it.
At the mention of Avery, Xavier gave a slight nod.
"A young woman, huh? Fine. Bring her in." Was she Avery's girlfriend? If so, Xavier needed to take a good look.

"I meant no disrespect. You don't need to get angry."
Xavier had beca mercenary at thirteen and later built Coldfangm Mercenaries from the ground up. He'd lived every day dancing on the edge of death.
Even without releasing his aura, his sheer presence was overwhelming.
His subordinates didn't even dare breathe loudly.
But Tessa? She stood there, calm and unbothered.
Not a flicker of fear in her eyes.
