Zac sat in his chair, lazily sipping on the tea in his right hand.
"I came to you this late at night to help you with your problems, of course," Antheena answered, her eyes keenly staring at him.
His right hand trembled a little, shaking the tea in the cup. His eyes gleamed as he pointed at the couch across from him. "Take a seat."
She boldly sat down and went straight to the point. "Prince Zac, I know Matthew Kings is a thorn in your flesh that you wish to remove. I have a plan. Do you wish to listen to it?"
"What are the conditions?" He knew she would not offer help without getting something in return, so he was smart enough to ask about the conditions before proceeding.
"It's nothing difficult."
Zac crossed his legs and leaned back against the chair. He lifted his chin, looking confident. "Go ahead."
"Let's get rid of Matthew and Veronica!" she replied. "Matthew is the biggest threat to both of us. I want him dead more than you do."
As long as Matthew was alive, he would be protecting Veronica. To get rid of Veronica, she would need to remove Matthew first.
"Hahaha…" Zac laughed loudly, throwing his head back. "You went to great lengths for Xavier Crawford."
"Indeed."
"Don't you think you're getting the short end of the stick, doing all these for him?"
