I immediately stood up, smiling as I picked up the glass. “Mr. Shaw has a cold and can’t drink. I’ll drink for him.”

I was about to drink. The glass was almost touching my lips when a slender, elegant hand took the drink from me.“No need. Sit

down.”

The voice was soft but carried an inexplicable protective warmth. Xander put the drink back on the table.

The private room fell silent. Jason looked like he was about to crush his wine glass. The others had different expressions: houghtful, slightly frowning, or pretending not to see.

was a little dazed. I obediently sat back down. I hadn’t figured out his intentions, but… there must have been a deeper meaning. I ust had to cooperate.

Mr. Shaw is quite gallant.” David joked.

t wasn’t really a joke; he was pointing out that Xander, for a woman, didn’t even give Gabriel face. Even the chairman would be given some deference.

Kander gave him a faint look, then smiled faintly. “David, you understand me. Here, you drink this for me.”

Then, he feigned a weak cough.

David’s wolf could only swallow this bitter pill in silence, “YOU SHAMELESS BRAT!”

His own Mr. Shaw was sick and couldn’t drink, and he was specifically asking him to drink. If he refused, how could he end the ituation? He had no choice but to drink the wine. His old face flushed red with anger.

Zane gave him an apologetic look. He had been turned away many times when visiting Kingston. A few days ago, he had met Gabriel at a party, and they had a private chat. Gabriel said he could help arrange a meeting with Xander.

To be safe, he had brought David along. It now seemed that Xander wouldn’t give anyone face. “HAD HE TRULY BEEN CAPTIVATED BY SOPHIA? WITH THIS LEVEL OF PROTECTION, THEY PROBABLY WEREN’T INNOCENT…” His volf tried to deduce from Xander’s actions what stage he was at with Sophia. Thinking this, he glanced at Jason.

On the other side, Gabriel laughed heartily, easing the tension. “Someone with a cold shouldn’t drink.”

Saying this, he gave a subtle signal to his secretary who was still standing there with the wine bottle, telling her to step back.

Xander’s actions clearly showed he wasn’t buying anyone’s account. Thomas would eventually have to back down; in the future, Kingston would be run by Xander, and offending him would not benefit anyone. Besides, the title of the youngest Alpha in the Pack’s history is not something to be ignored. Today, helping Zane arrange this meeting with Xander, firstly, he could repay a favor o the Cooper Family and secondly, he could understand Xander’s style of doing things.

You should have informed me beforehand about bringing guests.”

Kander’s smile was polite. But his eyes were filled with frost.

Yuan pretended not to see it, maintaining a pleasant demeanor. “I wanted to inform you, but I was afraid you wouldn’t come. Zane is worried sick about the project.”

With Gabriel leading, Zane immediately seized the opportunity. “Mr. Shaw, please give us another chance regarding the project joan. I know that some things have made you suspicious, but I can assure you that they won’t affect the progress of the project, and Jason and I will absolutely not allow any problems with the project.”

While Zane was speaking, Jason remained silent with a cold face. Zane wasn’t counting on him to speak.

Xander listened patiently, his expression remaining impassive. He picked up the tea and took a sip, looking down at the clear tea, his tone casual Jason, don’t you have anything to say?”

His beautiful, almond–shaped eyes lifted, resting on Jason’s face.
