章 224: Partners

Kiba's expression was that of fury as Amir reminded him of the possibility that he might not be able to protect Ruby.

"Calm down," Alexia stepped in and joined the conversation.

She placed a hand on his shoulder and said, "He is saying this for your own good so that you won't have any regrets in the future. While we as a group are strong, the dangers here are not to be underestimated."

"The best thing for Ruby would be to join her father," Amir said as Kiba calmed down a bit.

Everything he and Alexia said so far was a gamble; he believed either he would win or lose everything, there was no other possibility. If possible, he didn't wish to use this, but given the current situation and his future plans, there was no other choice.

Byron's eye flashed with slyness as he listened to the conversation.

"This could work for us," Byron thought with happiness. "Kiba has fallen for Ruby so this would be the right opportunity to separate him from this Amir and his group."
