Chapter 53: Screaming Eagles
Even if she wasn’t the most experienced, Isabella still understood that a massive deal involving 70 to 100 Tier 8 units per year had to come with a lot of strings attached.
Normally, only the top ten guilds—those true giants—would even qualify to take on something of this scale.
Deals this big required serious financial backing, and any faction with that kind of power wouldn’t even glance at a mid-tier guild like Nocturnal Crescent.
And yet, somehow, this deal had landed right in their laps.
There was no doubt about it—this was Ethan’s doing.
She knew he was trying to help her, trying to support Carter Group, but she couldn’t help feeling a little uneasy. Would making such a bold decision on his own cause any problems? Would there be consequences?

Hearing that, Isabella finally let out a breath of relief. Her expression softened, and her eyes filled with gratitude as she looked at him. "Ethan, thank you so much for this—"
