The Almighty Lord Caspian

Chapter 644 An Anxious Defense 

“All of my guards were selected following extremely stringent background checks. There’s no way one of them is the mole!” Balthazar was certain.

“But I’m the Minister of Culture. Even though I’m not as powerful as Caspian, I still hold an important government position. There’s no reason for me to be the mole,” Jerry argued in his defense.

Balthazar stared at Jerry without speaking, but his reaction only made Jerry feel even more flustered.

“It’s only normal for me to feel scared, Your Majesty. Even though I know I’m innocent, I’m still afraid.
