Chapter 837

At the Capital, in the Emperor’s Mansion…

It was a luxurious living room. On the table was a dizzying array of delicacies. Expensive drinks and alcohol were also available.

The Emperor was sitting on the sofa. With a brilliant smile on his face, he raised a wine glass. Here’s to you, Bobby.”

Sitting across the Emperor was a man just a little over twenty. He was dressed in an all-white suit and had a fair complexion and a dashing appearance. His presence was impressive. Bobby held up a wine glass and took a gentle sip. “I’m sure you have a request for me, Mr. Johnston. Whatever it is, just tell me,” he said nonchalantly.

The Emperor set his glass down and pointed to the delicacies on the table. “First, let’s eat,” he said with a smile.

Bobby still did not touch his plate.

As a member of the Caden family, he was aware of the current situation in the Capital. The main players in the game of political chess were supported by various sects. Only the Ancient Four could choose to stay above the fray.

One could even argue that some of the Ancient Four got involved as well.

“I don’t feel like eating, Mr. Johnston. Like I said, whatever it is, just tell me.”

The Emperor’s face became solemn. He lit a cigarette that he had taken from the table. As he inhaled deeply from the cigarette, smoke filled the air.
