Zachary Armstrong stood behind Dragon Carter, gesturing for Keira Leaf and Jackson Sully to take seats opposite him.

Dragon Carter slowly opened his turbid eyes and, displaying a smile, softly said, "So, you are Keira Leaf."
Although he was indeed smiling, Keira Leaf firmly believed that the man in front of her had no affection for her.
"You do possess some beauty; no wonder Third would defy me for your sake," Dragon Carter spoke softly.
Keira Leaf's heart tightened.
