Capítulo 504: Chapter 504 – What It’s Like Losing 50 Million
After a thorough negotiation with Marika… I finally relented and accepted to give her the 50 Million Pounds. The thorough negotiation not only didn’t lower the number but I even lost the bargaining ga by so much that I now also won’t get any interest rate.
…You can say I thoroughly fucked up.
I did not know the girl who could moan and wet a bed to sunders could also dry up and leave to the road with nothing. She really was an experienced negotiator… exploiting every single loop hole to get the best benefit.
I only hope I’m not the only sucker to get fucked by her like this.
Although it wasn’t all in vain, I learned the reason why she needed so much money.
It seems that the Dragonoir family had taken a lengthy loan long ago. It was not 50 million but 25… if the old pages could be trusted.
Yep, it was so old that even the papers were wrapping up.
Apparently, at that ti they needed money heavily to fight against the impending doom of losing the old empire and reshaping into the new one. They needed to stand tow to tow with the new houses and while they may have been very strong before, the wars have burned through them a lot.
Slowly they embedded themselves to the new system, while paying the interest rate of the loan that they borrowed from multiple houses.
But it was so big and their situation was still challenging, so they couldn’t pay it fully and as ti went so did the rates went higher and the overall loan number.
At this current mont, they did have the money to fill up both the rate and cut everything out… BUT soone very intuitive thought it was better to take the money from and close their debt.
In this way, I would have actually paid a heavy price for damaging her family and also ease their anger.
After all that talking, we finally ca to the point where I not only lost 50 Million Pounds, but she said that, she’ll ‘contemplate’ about our relationship.
Contemplate shit!
I know she was back in, she knew she was back in and now all I have to do is find a new vacation house to fuck her… after so more days of heat calming as I’m sure her brother is still thinking of killing .
How do I know that?
Because I was lying down on the bed and Abigail said that to while giving a simple massage. My body seed like it had deteriorated a hundred years and was devoid of anything.
“It’s okay.” She said as her magical hands pressed in at the right spots, “What matters is you did the job. Now even if Percival wants to do sothing, the others won’t let it beco sticky again.”
“You also get to have Marika and can do whatever you wa-” Abigail stopped and lightly slapped my back, “Hey, are you listening?”
“Huh?… o- oh, did you say sothing?” I look up, my vision a bit dizzy, “I’m sorry, I just had a flickering feeling that, many of my bank accounts… just dried up.”
“Get a grip, will you. It’s just money.” Abigail stopped massaging and got up. She walked to her bloody veins chair and leaned on it, “You’ll make more of it. From what you’re saying about the bullet venture, your pockets will fill up soon.”
“My pockets will, but what about my banks?” I look at her with an exhausted expression, “It was 50 million, Abigail. Not just so chump change.”
“You shouldn’t have slept with her then.”
‘What does it have to do with fucking?’ That’s what I thought but I wasn’t stupid enough to say it.
The only one who got out of this scot-free and with greater blackmail material was none other than Abigail… I wonder if she already knew of my dealings with Marika and was just waiting for the perfect mont to get the best out of it.
I subtly look at her and as many tis, find her looking at her belly with a caring expression and gently rubbed it as if saying ‘Don’t grow up to be like your father, okay?’.
“You should go back to the academy.”
“Huh?” I look up, “What do you an?”
Abigail looked at while her hand remained on her belly, “Did you forget sothing?”
“Like what?”
“That you don’t have a title anymore?”
My expression crunched, “Now that you say that… will you give one late-”
“No.” She lightly said and looked back down, “Go back to the academy, do so righteous deed or voluntary jobs and then I’ll see about it.”
“The Academy, again?”
“Yes, it’s your best bet now.” Abigail leaned back and closed her eyes to rest, “Don’t worry, I have soone there who will help you… just don’t do anything as drastic like the Dragonoir situation again.”
…
The Next day, at the Screeching Villa…
“So you’re going back to the academy?” Anna asked.
“Yes. And that ans I would have to leave the villa in your care again.” I smile at her, “Can you help with that, Anna?”
“Of course.” Anna said as she helped change my clothes.
“But master, didn’t you like… ‘crunch’ left or got kicked out?” Alice said from the bed as she lied sideways and ate an apple.
“I didn’t get kicked out, I had left temporarily. And what did I say about eating on the bed. You always leave crumbs, Alice.”
Alice stood upright and did a swiping motion with her hand. A glimr of white light appeared around the bed and her half-eaten apple, vanished.
“There, now you don’t have to worry about the crumbs.” Alice stood up and twirled as her clothes magically changed to an outgoing dress, “So, when are we leaving?”
Both Anna and I sigh at that, ‘I wish I had her convenience.’
“And you’re not coming with .” I turn back to the mirror as Anna helps button my shirt, “I already have enough headaches, I don’t need a purple one teleporting around .”
“Co on, Master!” Alice ca closer and started tugging , “Take with you.”
“You know that I am a great help and a loyal devotee.”
“What does being loyal do?” I raise a brow and shook her, “Alice, you’re not going.”
Alice sighed and looked down with a pout.
Seeing her like that, I lift her chin to look at , “Listen, I have a job for you. I need to you to train even harder. Next ti, I’m not going to need you for any petty tricks or for a quick tour, but to fight.”
“I need both your mind and your magic on top shape, can you do that?”
Seeing Henry’s expectant look, Alice nodded with a smile, “Of course, Master. You can expect my enemies to run away when they see . I’ll be standing over the long beach while raining Armageddon over them, Hahaha.”
“Ahahaha!”
“…Should I be worried?”
“Don’t worry, it’s her usual way of laughing.”
‘That’s usual?!’
Suddenly, Anna’s head turned up as she rembered, “Henry, I almost forget to tell you, Jacob and your archer friend had co four nights ago.”
“They did? Good, I’ll take Wilson with to the academy.”
Anna nodded and had an awkward look as if considering whether she should say her mind or not.
“Henry… why does your archer friend cross-dress like a boy?”
“…”
Only one chap today, guys.
Sorry, but I’m a bit sick.
