Chapter 1209:

Waylon looked at her with a mocking, sarcastic grin.

“Miss Sanderson, you certainly have some nerve.

Do you truly believe you can overpower the Rovania government?”

Harlee laughed louder, her tone filled with mockery.

“Why can’t I? Isn’t the Rovania government just a collection of corrupt officials?”

At her words, Waylon’s demeanor changed, and he slammed his fist on the table. Suddenly, the room was filled with individuals dressed in black.

Despite this, Harlee and Rhys remained calm, not even flinching, as if the horde of assassins presented no real threat.

Noticing their calm, Waylon’s expression softened slightly, and he said, “Let me tell you a story about the history of money laundering in Rovania.”

At that moment, two chefs entered, presenting new dishes. Waylon glanced at them but refrained from touching any.

Waylon started slowly.

“Rovania’s past was marked by economic turmoil and social unrest. The people were poor, while the wealthy elites held all the financial power, raising prices without restraint. The government, helpless and powerless, could only watch.

Back then, the Salazar family was a small and insignificant name, unnoticed by the oligarchs. With no real support from the government, they were left to desperately search for a way to improve the lives of the people.” Waylon paused and then continued, “Do you know how the Salazar family managed to navigate such a dire situation?” Though Harlee was acquainted with the former patriarch of the Salazar family, she was not well-versed in its history.

“Not even the heir of the Green Group knows?” Observing Rhys’ silence, Waylon expressed a trace of surprise.

“It appears your grandfather hasn’t fully entrusted you with leadership responsibilities.

After all, the Salazar family’s current standing owes much to the ascent of the Green Group back then.”

Harlee was taken aback, suspecting a potential link between Nathaniel and the Salazar family. Nathaniel had made significant strides alongside Nicola, so perhaps she also had insights into Rovania’s history.

As Harlee considered this, she sent a message to Tonya.

“Tonya, can you check if Nicola knows about the Salazar family’s involvement in money laundering?”

She quickly received a response.

“Harlee, Baldrick has uncovered new developments. You and Rhys should find a reason to leave soon.”

However, Harlee had already pocketed her phone and missed the message.

Waylon, sensing potential trouble, signaled his assassins to be ready to knock the phone from Harlee’s hand the moment she reached for it.

By chance, Harlee hadn’t thought to check her phone again, thus she remained unaware of Tonya’s message and oblivious to any odd behavior from Waylon.

Once he ensured everything was under control, Waylon continued, “Indeed, the Salazar family forged ahead by collaborating with the Green Group. While I don’t know the specifics, if you two are curious, perhaps you should ask Nathaniel upon your return.
