"I think these two forces won't give up easily," Catalina pondered for a moment, then said in a serious tone, "Rosewood deals in arms, making a fortune from war. They hold significant influence. No offense, but while House Rosewood may not be as all-encompassing as Golden Chrysanthemum, they have perfected the arms trade to its utmost. They might not be intimidated by the Golden Chrysanthemum's reputation.
As for Duke Frans, there's no need to say more.
His land purchases are still a mystery, but he doesn't need the Golden Chrysanthemum to carry out his plans.
Both factions are determined to achieve their goals, which could be troublesome."
Saying this, Catalina turned to Owen and continued, "Owen, do you have any good ideas?"
"There's a way, but I wouldn't say it's either good or bad," Owen let out a long breath, a trace of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.
