Lily lifted her troubled face and explained, "Mr. Charles, he would only agree to help find you if I accepted his condition."
The Pope smiled slightly, a hint of smugness in his voice. "Child, although the process was unexpectedly smooth, that has nothing to do with me. The payment you owe must still be paid. I only promised to rescue you and defeat the Foundation."
Seeing Charles's dark expression, Anna crossed her arms and explained with a trace of irritation, "Hey, hey, hey, you can't be blaming me, can you? You know this is the Foundation. To fight them, I obviously have to use all our power. Trading a mouse for the Pope's help is a great deal."
Looking at Lily, Charles's recently improved mood instantly sank. He stared fiercely at the Pope's youthful face and said, "That is my crewmate. I will get it back."
