Chapter 572: Easy Way Out

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

It didn't take long for the leader of the Nightingale clan to pick up the phone, but in response to the home minister's enthusiastic greeting, he could only awkwardly maintain his silence.

Even if the relationship between his clan and the Gray Wolfe was now teetering on the verge of collapse, it still hadn't been nominally dissolved by either of them. And if he really 'took the initiative' to do something like this now, it would definitely attract a lot of resentment from both the elders and other clan members.
