Such countries must be economically backward and lacking in foreign exchange, and yet they don't have normal trade relations with the internationalmunity. How, then, do they obtain foreign exchange?" Theodore listened to Yerick's words and felt they made sense.
Yerick went on, "These countries are extremely isolated, economically backward, and have low productivity. They may lack creativity, but they certainly are a threat, which is why they've been under sanctions. To obtain foreign exchange, they have a few ways. One of those ways is to get money from sof the world's richest individuals. They will hide these wealthy individuals in their secretive countries, keeping them safe from discovery." Yerick smirked.

"Your job now is to find these countries, then check them one by one. It's an airtight barrel, but once you find the barrel, you can always find an opening.

"They hold large amounts of Melrine currency, stored through special methods, with professional undergroundanizations handling their wealth without detection by regulatory bodies. I once investigated Sebastian thoroughly and found he had dealings with these dictatorial countries. He smuggled goods for them, especially for Veleso." Theodore hadn't expected that Yerick had uncovered something that even he and Christopher hadn't. He took a few steps closer to the bed.

Theodore looked at him suspiciously. "What kind of trick are you trying to pull now?" "What kind of trick could I possibly pull like this? Yerick smiled weakly. "Today is the last twe'll meet. hope that when it's over, you can tell Rosalie that I'm sorry for everything, for bringing her so much harm. If she could ive me..." S Yerick suddenly fell silent.

If only they could turn back time. If Yerick hadn't hurt them and hade to the Spencer family from the beginning and asked them to take responsibility, things might have been very different. At the very least, things wouldn't have be so bad. Unfortunately, there were no "what ifs." Theodore stood by the bed, staring at Yerick's pale face, and muttered softly, "Goodbye, brother." After saying those words, Theodore turned and left the hospital without looking back.
