Chapter 392: Contract (6400 Added)

~7 min read 1,273 words

The "annoying guy" is named Bulit, the second son of a merchant family.

This time, he was ordered to head to South Innis to manage a plantation, which sounds a bit like being exiled.

Because of this, his mood is not very pleasant.

Later, he met Aaron, Kaine, and others at the card table, and some minor conflicts erupted because he lost his bet, refused to pay, and showed jealousy toward Aaron...

Every small circle has a leader, and Bot, Baoluo, and others tacitly accept Aaron as the leader because he lives in first class.

Well, the reason for his high status is just that simple and unadorned.

Bulit is quite handsome and has attended a specialized school; he feels his talents are unrecognized and is even more jealous that Aaron is young, more handsome, and wealthier than him... and has also inherited a large fortune.

"This beautiful lady, I am sorry to attract your attention in this way... I just wanted to get to know you, my name is Jack Kesaini!"

"Mr. Bulit..."

"I have had enough... even though those young men and women have decadent parties and revelry before marriage."

Although Miss Helen Kandi has a poor reputation and likes excitement and adventure... beside her are two stuffy nannies specifically chosen by the Count and a group of servants.

Aaron shrugged his shoulders, suddenly sat down beside Bulit, and snapped his fingers: "Bring a glass of lemonade."

Bulit shook his head in denial; after all, he is only a manor steward, not a manor owner. As a manager, this is already a large sum of money.

"Regarding the previous matter, I am very sorry."

At this moment, he saw a few annoying people approaching, and his smiling expression stiffened on his face.

It is said that they always hope Miss Helen Kandi stays in her suite until the voyage ends, and they even control where she puts her hands when she sleeps at night!

This time it was also because Miss Helen Kandi threw a tantrum that she had the opportunity to come to the bar, but the two nannies followed her like bodyguards on the left and right, vigilantly watching every young man who approached, which made Bulit very helpless.

It must be said that Aaron's handsome appearance completely satisfied all the young girl's yearnings and expectations for a fiancé.

Aaron looked at Bulit.

Before the words were finished, one of the nannies beside them spoke with a cold face: "No, we don't need to... Miss, as a lady waiting to be married, you need to stay away from such places."

"Pfft... I mean, this suits you very well," Bulit said maliciously.

Aaron blinked, and suddenly, amidst the horrified gazes of the two nannies, he leaned close to Helen, whispered something in her ear, then quickly left, keeping a smile on his face: "Then... can you pour me a glass of wine?"

"How about we make a bet."

'Ugh... no wonder so many young ladies are easily seduced by poor boys into eloping...'

Although she was angry, he was really handsome!

Helen's expression unconsciously became soft; she stood up, lifted the hem of her skirt, and performed a lady's curtsy: "I am Helen! Helen Kandi! Very happy to meet you."

After responding coldly, he turned to look at Helen, an obsequious smile appearing on his face:

Yes, he wanted to seduce this young lady; it would be even more wonderful if he could bewitch her into eloping with her dowry.

Aaron suddenly felt that if he used the excuse of "painting" to strike up a conversation, the possibility of success would be very high.

"I bet I can make that lady pour me a drink voluntarily. If I succeed, you give me 100 Shillings; if I fail, I pay you 100 Shillings. How about it?"

Aaron revealed a brilliant smile.

Bulit said very vigilantly.

She had caught a small handle on the two nannies and threw a big tantrum, finally obtaining this opportunity, and at this moment, she just wanted to play at something exciting.

A smile appeared on Helen's face as she picked up the wine bottle and poured a full glass of Fire Wine into Aaron's cup.

Helen pursed her lips, her eyes swept around, and they fell involuntarily on Aaron.

"Deal!" Bulit's eyes rolled, and he answered in a low voice.

"Hmm, that Green Forest Earl has said many classic quotes, it's a pity only a few have spread," the lawyer Kaine next to him nodded in agreement.

Aaron lifted his chin slightly, pointing at Miss Helen, who was sticking out her tongue to lick the wine glass like a kitten and panting from time to time.

Helen thought regretfully, sitting at the edge of the bar: "Give me a bottle of Fire Wine!"

"Of course!"

A curve appeared at the corner of Aaron's mouth; he was just looking for someone to try the Fate correction of the "Law of Accident."

"Beautiful Miss Helen, I recommend the Mojito cocktail here; the taste is refreshing and suitable for a lady like you."

"I won. According to the Contract, you should pay 100 Shillings!"

Unfortunately, he forgot one thing.

"What bet? I'm not interested..."

After also finding out about Miss Helen Kandi, a plan immediately formed in the bottom of his heart.

In that chaotic place of South Innis, one could easily hide from subsequent investigations, and ten thousand Shillings would be enough to buy many plantations and live the life of a rich man.

Helen was indeed glaring at Aaron angrily, and the smile on Bulit's face grew more smug, as he made a mouth shape of 100 Shillings.

Furthermore, in front of the Helen he wanted to seduce, how could he appear to lack gentlemanly conduct or have poor character?

Whether it was gambling or debt, he would never admit to them.

"Then I declare, the Contract is established!" Aaron maintained his smile, declaring in a solemn voice, while simultaneously notarizing this Contract with the "Law of Accident."

Facing a potential competitor, the smile on Bot's face grew even brighter: "Last time we played cards, you owed us 1 Shilling and 3 Shillings... when will you return it?"

Unfortunately, he was not...

"I don't have much interest in that lady, but I don't like people who owe me money!"

"Damn it!" Bulit looked at Helen, his face filled with shock, disappointment, confusion, and despair; he finally tore off his disguise and gave a middle finger: "Go to hell!"

A triumphant smile appeared on Bulit's face; he walked righteously to Miss Helen's side and said loudly: "Miss Helen, this man has committed a very ungentlemanly act. He actually used your behavior to bet with me, making you pour him a drink; this is truly too despicable!"

'Sure enough... being handsome is a gift from God...'

Seeing Bulit sitting at the bar again to curry favor, even Dr. Baoluo and the lawyer Kaine couldn't stand it. Although Dr. Baoluo shouted the loudest, he had self-awareness and lowered his voice: "Are we just going to watch that scoundrel Bulit harass the Ten-Thousand-Shilling Lady? Jack... you go, I would rather see flowers and Green Leaf match than see it defiled by a pile of dog shit!"

"What 1 Shilling and 3 Shillings?"

After all, drinking lemonade at a bar is a very girly act.

Clearly, he had decided to break the appointment and abandon the plan to "hunt" Helen, no longer needing to maintain his composure.

Aaron shrugged his shoulders, watching calmly as Bulit left: "Very well... he has chosen to refuse... then what will happen next?"
