章節 62: Chapter 62：The Veil Lifted

If the two had communicated through their subordinates instead of meeting directly, they could have cautiously probed and gradually understood each other, eventually putting their guards down for an honest exchange.

But now, like two venomous snakes meeting head-on, both were hesitant to fight or retreat.

The atmosphere was cold and oppressive, like frost and snow, freezing the entire area into a silent, deathly stillness.

In such a situation, both were almost ready to make a move.

But Audrey, feeling her lack of confidence, spoke first:

"Today's encounter was unexpected, and it's natural for us to be on high alert. In this situation, neither of us will lower our guard, making it unsuitable for conversation. Why don't we each leave and arrange a place for our subordinates to communicate?"

Audrey was already gathering her strength. If the person in front of her made any sudden moves, she would run.
