Chapter 22: Aleshias Conditions (1/2)

”What about my little sister? I don't want to take her on a journey.”

Aleshia's voice softened as she mentioned her little sister. She found Lawrend's offer to be very tempting even though she didn't want to admit it.

”My butlers here will take care of her. She could eat and do whatever she wanted inside the mansion.”

Lawrend explained to her. For someone as wealthy as him, having Aleshia's little sister frolic around inside the mansion is no big deal.

”I don't trust you.”

Aleshia looked straight into Lawrend's eyes. Lawrend frowned after hearing her words. If she still insists on not going then he would not be able to really force her.

”But… If you agree to my conditions, I will do as you say.”

Aleshia continued. Lawrend's eyes glowed when he heard her say that. He was filled with hope. As long as it's not too much, he can agree with anything!

”What is it?”

Lawrend asked her in anticipation. He was slightly nervous but he knows that this was his only chance.

”We go alone. No guards.”

Aleshia smiled meaningfully at Lawrend. Lawrend felt his heart skip a beat after she said that. It was a weird feeling for Lawrend. Going on a journey with someone as beautiful as her… the possibilities are endless!

”I agree!”

Lawrend immediately agreed without thinking too much into it. F*ck the guards. He will go alone on a journey with a hot maid!

”Also, I want my little sister to sleep on a soft bed.”

Aleshia added with a smile on her beautiful face. Even now, she still wishes for her little sister to be able to sleep soundly at night.

”That's not a problem!”

Lawrend answered with a thump to his chest. That's already part of the plan. He's losing nothing from it.

”So when is it?”

Aleshia wanted to know when it was so she could prepare some stuff for their journey. After all, this was her chance to get to know this son of the wealthiest merchant in Lanika City. She wouldn't lie, she wanted to go alone with Lawrend so she could take Lawrend hostage if they decide to do something to Ella. A safety precaution that is very necessary.

”2 days later.”

”That fast??”

Aleshia was surprised. She expected it to be a week later. She won't be able to prepare if it was this fast.

”Yes. A shipment from the Blunark Continent will be arriving in Sheron Port City soon. It is said to be filled with various exotic goods. I can't miss this chance.”

Lawrend explained to her. As the son of the wealthiest merchant in the city of Lanika. He has some sources about big shipments like this. He was one of the first few people who would know about such a rare shipment so getting there sooner is an advantage.

”I see. It can't be helped huh.”
