Half an hour later, the car arrived at the Astrovia branch office. By now, it was well past closing time.
Yet the Thorne Corp Astrovia branch building was still brightly lit from top to bottom.
Not a single employee had dared to leave.
Word had spread that a major financial scandal had crupted within the branch, and everyone was terrified they
might get caught in the fallout.
As soon as Landon’s car pulled up, the branch’s general manager rushed out with a team of executives to greet
him.
“Landon, welcome!” the GM greeted him with nervous reverence.
Landon glanced coldly at the group, a flicker of golden wolf eyes passing through his gaze. The sheer pressure of
his alpha presence made the GM take a step back involuntarily.
Landon despised showy displays that tried to mask failures. If this man had focused more on the company’s
operations instead of putting on a facade, this mess might never have happened.
Without a word, Landon headed straight inside with Tessa and Nathaniel.

Despite the cold, sweat drenched the GM’s back. The werewolf gland mark at the base of his neck flushed red
with fear.
In wolf society, alphas who shirked responsibility were scorned. And everyone knew Landon, the Alpha King of
Montedra, was anything but merciful.
Landon brought Tessa directly into the conference room.
Tessa stopped at the doorway.
“I'll wait outside while you handle business. This kind of high-level meeting must be confidential.”
“It’s fine. Just sit next to me. You don’t have to listen-play games or whatever.” He didn’t want her bored out in
the hallway, and more importantly, he didn’t want her out of sight.
“...Alright.” Since he insisted, Tessa followed him in and sat beside him.
Soon, the room filled up with the branch’s senior staff.
“This mess-do you have anything to say for yourself?” Nathaniel opened with a sharp glare at the general
manager. This was one of the worst scandals in Thorne Corp's history.
The GM's voice trembled.
“Landon, ever since | joined the company, I've always worked hard... this situation... I-1 never meant for this to
happen...”
He looked like he was about to cry.
If Alpha Landon held him personally responsible, it was all over for him.

“Landon, | may not have done much, but at least I've tried. I'm begging you-please letoff this once... He
hadn't tried to run because he knew there was no escaping it.
“No achievements, but plenty of effort?” Landon finally spoke, his voice low and resonant with a distinctive
werewolf tremor that made the conference room’s glass hum with vibration.
Silence fell instantly.
No one dared to breathe loudly. A few low-ranking werewolves had their beast ears pop up in fear before quickly
retracting into their hair.
“You caused this massive disaster, and you dare say that to me? | pay you tens of millions a year so you can
avoid responsibility?”

“Landon, I'm sorry! | swear | know | ed up!”
“That's enough. Go turn yourself in.” That was the most mercy he was willing to give.
The GM collapsed to his knees.
“Landon, please—I'll be done for if | do that! | have a family, kids...”
“I'm telling you, Greg, do it yourself. If we handle it, you won't survive the consequences,” Nathaniel warned
him.
You make the company bleed like this, you pay for it.

“Security. Take him away.” Nathaniel didn’t waste another second.
No point wasting ton someone like him.
Several guards entered the room and escorted the general manager out.
The rest of the executives were drenched in cold sweat, too stunned to speak.
No one dared make a sound.
