They arrived at the top floor and were imdiately t with two guards who looked much tougher than Alex’s. It seed everyone was very tense to receive them both as they began to pat Lucius down.
They touched his entire body, making sure that he did not have any weapons. They didn’t do the sa with Aphrodite, as she was only wearing a dress... and she was also a woman. It was also clear with a glance that she wasn’t hiding anything.
The guards didn’t know it, but Aphrodite wasn’t even wearing underwear under her dress. She was completely naked. So, if they had patted her down, they would have felt the bare body of the Goddess of Love.
It was quite the lost opportunity right there.
"Please follow us," the two of them said in a stern tone, quickly turning around as they made sure there was no threat to the CEO.
If only they knew that accompanying Lucius was a Goddess. They would have probably been more careful. However, even if Lucius had told them, they would have thought that he was borderline crazy.
A few seconds passed, and they arrived before a tightly shut door.
They gave two short knocks.
-Knock!
-Knock!
"Co in."
The door opened on its own, revealing a man looking out from the gigantic wall made of glass that provided a beautiful view of the city of Manhattan.
The guards, surprisingly, did not stay inside the room. It seed that they trusted Lucius enough not to do anything stupid.
"It’s beautiful, isn’t it?" the man sitting in the chair asked in a pensive voice.
Lucius looked out and could only nod.
The view of the city was certainly one of a kind. However, the next words coming out of Axel’s mouth made him think otherwise.
"Look at all the people walking around, wondering if they will make ends et at the end of the month. It’s beautiful, really."
Lucius frowned.
He hadn’t thought that Axel had such a ntality from the way he talked downstairs. However, it seed that most billionaires in the world had so problems inside their heads. All of them thought of themselves as superior to the rest of the world.
"Right..."
Lucius wasn’t sure what to say, so he just mindlessly agreed as he took a seat while the man remained turned around.
"So."
He finally turned his chair around and looked Lucius dead in the eyes, his tone neutral.
"Why are you here to et ?" He smiled. "I hope it’s sothing that I’ve never seen or heard before because you certainly had so balls down there, antagonizing my son. Not many people co out alive from doing such a thing."
Axel smiled as the threats ca pouring out of his mouth as if they were as natural as breathing.
He was completely different from what Lucius had imagined. It seed that the show he had put on down there had completely fooled him into thinking that he was a different person.
’He’s a good actor...’
Lucius shook his head, knowing that nothing would happen to him, no matter what he said next.
If he wished for it, then Axel’s head could be gone in the snap of his fingers.
Still, there was no reason for such a thing to happen.
Lucius cald himself down with two short coughs and began his speech.
"We are here to give you the opportunity of the century. Sothing that could make you the second richest man on Earth."
He laughed at the sentence.
"Second? Not first? Why?"
"Because that would be in the future, unfortunately for you."
Imdiately, the billionaire’s attention was caught as his eyes squinted in an instant.
"Tell more..."
The sheer confidence coming from Lucius was hard to deny in business. He could clearly see that Lucius believed every word that was coming out of his mouth. He was not just throwing out so words for the fun of it.
"I have created two inventions that will revolutionize the world as a whole and how we act in society, and that’s only the beginning."
The man smiled. "And what are those... so-called inventions?"
Lucius just smirked as he placed his hand inside his shirt and pulled out the Love Potion and the Erotic Perfu—the two inventions that would change this world forever.
"Mhm... the guards let you through with this?"
Lucius shrugged. It wasn’t his problem.
"So, what do these even do? They look quite plain to ."
"Well, you could ask one of your sons. He experienced one of them firsthand."
Axel frowned, thinking that Lucius was talking about Alex. However, after so ti, he understood that wasn’t the case.
"That still doesn’t even answer my question, though."
On the way here, Lucius knew that he would have to reveal critical information, and he also knew that he would have to ensure that such information would never be revealed to the public for the ti being.
That’s why he had asked Aphrodite for a way to make this possible.
Lucius only needed a look for her to get into action. She quickly stood up from her seat.
"You will have to sign a contract that says you will never reveal the sensitive information that I am about to tell you about my products. Do you agree?"
Axel found that strange; however, he only beca more and more curious as to what those two bottles filled with red liquid were.
"Sure."
What Axel didn’t know was that this contract was special.
It was a Soul Contract. If the person broke the terms of this contract, they would die as a result. There was nothing safer.
Axel didn’t seem to find anything weird as he quickly signed the contract.
"So... what are they?"
Lucius smirked. "This right here is a Love Potion. The person who drinks it will fall in love with the next person that they see."
"What?!"
Axel couldn’t help but shout in surprise.
"I-Is that real?"
Lucius laughed. "Sure is."
"What about the other invention?!"
"Oh that... I call it the Erotic Perfu. Won slling this beco horny and a lot more prone to be seduced by the opposite sex, even falling in love with them."
Axel frowned as he was not sure if he could trust the things coming out of Lucius’s mouth.
"What tells that all of this is even true?"
However, Lucius already had his answer ready.
"Rember your son. What was his na again... Paul? He should be able to prove how efficient those products are."
