The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Crispin Valentine coldly stated: ”If the woman were merely attractive, I might even believe you fell for someone and acted foolishly. But as far as I know, that woman is already taken. Her man is Carson Flores, who saved the Three Sects Disciple during the sea assault and has now apprenticed under Floating Cloud...”

Lorvian Randall’s expression subtly changed: ”What do you want to say?”

Crispin Valentine’s gaze was cold and sharp: ”On the eve of a major battle, you lent the sect’s precious Sea Tide Pearl, which greatly enhances your combat power, to someone from the Three Sects. It resulted in the Sea Tide Pearl being depleted of Spiritual Power, rendering it unusable and ultimately leading to your loss. I just want to ask, Lorvian Randall, what were your intentions?”

Lorvian Randall suddenly turned pale. He finally understood Crispin Valentine’s purpose.

He aimed to place all the blame on him, making him responsible for the defeat!

”Stop slandering me!”

A gleam of satisfaction appeared in Crispin Valentine’s eyes. This was the effect he wanted. By disclosing this in front of everyone, the blame naturally fell on Lorvian Randall!

Crispin Valentine didn’t care about the truth!

As long as he could saddle Lorvian Randall with the blame, it was enough!

The most ingenious part was that everything Crispin Valentine said was true, leaving Lorvian Randall with no room for rebuttal.

”You accuse me of falsehoods, but tell me, which part of what I said is false?”

Looking at Crispin Valentine’s smug expression, Lorvian Randall suddenly didn’t feel like arguing anymore.

He understood that Crispin Valentine merely wished to pin the blame on him.

Fearful of the Sect Hierarch’s wrath, he wanted Lorvian Randall to take responsibility.

Could using the Sea Tide Pearl really have secured victory?

No!

Lorvian Randall knew best how the Sea Tide Pearl would perform. Profound River was shielded by a magical treasure that wasn’t weaker than the Sea Tide Pearl. The power of the Sea Tide Pearl couldn’t affect Profound River, who was desperately using the Dragon Mountain Secret Art.

In that instant, Profound River couldn’t be stopped by his Carp Dragon Realm self.

In the fourth match, wasn’t Floating Cloud of the Dragon Mountain Sect also using a Secret Technique to instantly boost his strength and turn the tides in his favor?

Though Lorvian Randall had no guilt, he knew that with the matter blowing up, he’d likely have to shoulder this blame.

Proud by nature, understanding Crispin Valentine’s scheme, Lorvian Randall decided not to speak further.

True, he lost a match and indeed held some responsibility. If Crispin wanted to lay all the blame on him, then so be it.

As Lorvian Randall was about to fall silent, a Sea God Sect Disciple entered to report.

”There’s a disciple from the Dragon Mountain Sect at the door looking for the Saint Heir...”

Dragon Mountain Sect Disciple?

Everyone’s gaze instantly fell on Lorvian Randall’s face, eyes filled with various emotions, while Crispin Valentine’s eyes sparkled: ”What’s the Dragon Mountain Sect disciple’s name?”

”He said his name is Carson Flores.”

Crispin Valentine sneered, turning his head: ”Lorvian Randall, you’re quite something, not even avoiding suspicion. What else do you have to say now?”
