"So it was, it was Miss An. You actually came to Country Zi." Charlie forced the corners of his mouth up, the smile uglier than a cry. This woman had killed the Archbishop in Red; in front of her he wasn't even worth a fart!
"So Mr. Charlie knows me." An Yiqing raised her brows in mild surprise, then smiled meaningfully. "In that case, this is easy. I'm guaranteeing Louise and Qiao. If His Royal Highness the Prince has any objections, tell him to come to me directly. Of course, if anything happens to Louise and Qiao after I leave, I don't mind paying the Lasombra Clan a personal visit. Mr. Charlie, did you understand me?"
"Y-yes, yes, yes!" Charlie's head bobbed like a pecking chick; he didn't even dare look An Yiqing in the eye. "Miss An, I just remembered there are some matters I haven't dealt with yet. I'll be going first today. No need to see me off, don't see me off!"
