That evening, Alexander arrived at the entrance of a rather discreet private club. After a strict security check, he proceeded to the innermost VIP room.

Having arrived early, he made some preparations. When he was almost done, Cameron brought a foreigner over. The usually stern-faced man spoke smilingly as he courteously led the guest inside. Seeing them, Alexander quickly went over.

"Ross, this is the Mr. Alexander Russell I told you about. He's a prominent businessman in Kingsland. Oh, yes, he also has many properties and businesses in Yudonia," Cameron introduced the two with a smile.

Alexander said, "It's an honor to meet you, Your Highness. Just call me Alex."

"Nice to meet you, Alex," Ross said in a friendly manner and nodded. "I've heard much about you. You're good at making money off my country, huh?"

Cameron laughed while Alexander said, "Well, I do make a lot of money doing business in Yudonia, but you also benefit from the affordable goods I sell.

"Besides, there are many Yudonian businesses in Hyderland, so we can't say you haven't earned a fair share from us, right? The trade between our countries benefits everyone." Ross gave him a deep look.

Cameron wondered if he should say something to break the tension. However, the prince suddenly burst out laughing. "Well said, Alex! I was just messing with you. I hope you don't mind." Alexander laughingly said, "I was messing with you too. I didn't expect you to be such a down-to-earth person, Your Highness. I feel like I've known you for years."

"Just call me Ross. We're not on a formal occasion, are we?" he said casually.

Surprised, Alexander looked at Cameron, who nodded at him. "Well, as you wish then... Ross."

The prince laughed.

"Take a seat. You must be tired after all the functions. It's time to relax," Cameron said and beckoned.

Alexander nodded. "Yes, come have a drink."

However, before he could open a bottle of wine, one of Ross's men examined the drinks and inspected the room. After ensuring everything was safe, the bodyguard nodded at the prince and left. As guards stood at the door and the prince was safe, such actions seemed overly cautious.

"It's not that we don't trust you guys, but that's the protocol," Ross explained.

Alexander nodded repeatedly. "It's okay, I understand."

After exchanging pleasantries, the straightforward Ross said, "Ron has told me about Fred, but I need to look into it first."

Cameron nodded. "Well, you should. We just wish you could hurry up a bit. Otherwise..."
