Lorenzo paced back and forth anxiously, unable to calm himself down. He said, "Mr. Vazquez, it's not that I can't keep my composure, but the whole structure is about to collapse. My family stands alone and weak, and there's no way we can withstand Andrew's wrath."
He continued, "He alone is unbeatable. In all of Chetvine, the only ones who can deal with him are probably you and the hidden experts from the two royal families. However, the two royal families have been noncommittal and have never been at your disposal. In the end, you're the only one I can rely on."
Guillermo snorted coldly. "After all that talk, you're still hoping I'll step up and face Andrew in a duel personally, right? It's not impossible, but the timing isn't right! At the very least, I need other people, like the Cavendishes and the others, to join the fight before I make a move. Once I do make a move, it has to be a guaranteed kill."
Lorenzo was still anxious and uneasy. "Then, Mr. Vazquez, if Andrew shows up at the Owens family's door, what should I do?"
Guillermo roared, "Don't you have any ability to think for yourself? What should you do? Of course, you should be practical. If you can't beat him, just submit obediently."
Lorenzo breathed a sigh of relief and even smiled. "Mr. Vazquez, in that case, don't blame me if I show no backbone when the time comes."
The killing intent in Guillermo's eyes suddenly surged.
Even though he said it, he could not believe Lorenzo actually dared to do it. That would mean completely discarding Guillermo's reputation and dignity.
People would say that Guillermo had been forced, step by step, into a corner by Andrew, powerless against him. Even his trusted confidant and right-hand man had knelt before Andrew.
However, the next moment, Guillermo's anger subsided. He knew that loyalty was fickle when personal advantage was at stake. No matter how much power he once wielded or how brilliant he once was, it was all in the past.
In Holtrien's current landscape, he had even mobilized the two royal families, the Hearst family and the Cavendish family, both ancient lineages with over 1000 years of history. Yet even then, he still had no solution for Andrew.
Nate was a renowned first-class powerhouse from the royal family, but he was already defeated and nearly killed. Now, the Hearst royal family's ace, Pablo, was rushing to Chetvine.
As for the Cavendish royal family, they had remained silent, patiently watching.
