Chapter 260: The auction house fiasco -III (2/2)
”Sir Sam. This is not what he meant, he is an idiot don't take his words seriously. Please, just forget this ever happened, I will take him away.”
Sam didn't reply and just looked at him calmly.
The minister though is not happy, he started yelling.
”Marshall, you better watch your words, who are you calling an idiot?”
The minister is having none of it.
At this moment, Marshall couldn't control the situation anymore, so he took the communication token and sent a message.
The minister is ranting nonstop and bragging about his position status and stuff, Sam just stood there. He knew his position in this empire very well.
He is a time bomb. But the area of the explosion isn't determined yet and Arc has to make sure that the area of the explosion is not his empire.
Meanwhile, Sam is thinking about he hasn't seen a piece of work in a while. He was just thinking of the positive traits of the empire and now appeared a guy who is about to give him a new opinion.
Soon, the rant came to an end and that is because another person came into view.
The Emperor Arc came and everyone became silent. They are just thinking about how Sam would escape from this shameless guy because all of the suffered in one way or another under this guy and they thought that Sam would another one of the victims, but their anticipation is unfounded.
Emperor ignored everyone and went to Sam and greeted him.
”Mr. Sam. I hope that you liked the auction and I heard that you bought the finale. I really appreciate your patronage.”
”Never mind that. But I heard that you don't want to let me keep the things I bought. Of course, they didn't say it directly, but they did say that not giving in to them is the same as not giving in to you. So, I am afraid that I have to leave the products behind.”
When Arc heard these words, he shook his head. Sam is doing this purposefully. He is making sure that the emperor owes him at all points and not the other way around.
Now he just tried to make the foolish actions of this stupid minister as his will. It is hard to deal with cunning people.
”You are Jesting Mr. Sam. With all that you own, would I be making a move on something so simple? If I wanted, I will try to steal something bigger. I will deal with this matter, please return and rest. Tomorrow is the ceremony and you will be having an early start.”
Sam looked at the Minister and said.
”You better think before you speak, next time I wouldn't be this patient.” With that, he left and the crowd was also dispersed, the bustling street was empty with only a few people standing in front of the auction house.
”Brother-in-law, how can you let him go. He insulted us…” Arc stopped the minister's rant in a single glare.
”I am telling you. I was most afraid that you would encounter him and my worst fear came to pass. You really did encounter him. He is the one person I don't want to make an enemy and you are pushing him to be the empire's enemy.
You better know your place and how you became a minister. I am already being lenient to your son and you just because of my sister. But in this issue, I wouldn't side with you no matter what. He is the worst enemy I can make.”
Minister was unwilling but he couldn't do anything about it. So, he left the place along with his son.
The conflict was nipped before escalating and that even required the emperor's presence.
Marshall has seen the whole destruction of Orion from a first-person perspective, so he knew what Sam is capable of and he knew that he can volatile easily.
It is a good thing that he called emperor, otherwise, things would have taken an unusual turn.
Meanwhile, after returning to their residence, Sam went to his room, while Watt guided the two people to the hall.
Philip and Jack followed there curiously.
Watt stood up and circled around Felicia as if examining her. He noticed that the two siblings are extremely similar and it seems that they are twins.
After some examination, he took out the two slave tokens which restraints their movements and broke them.
”I don't need these slave tokens; I am not extremely fond of them.” He said then and after a brief pause continued. The siblings are surprised by his actions. But he didn't care.
”You, from now on, you are a personal assistant of Boss. You will deal with all the appointments, meetings, and people who come to meet him. Other than that, you have to remind him to take three meals and sleeping time. But you cannot disturb when he is researching…”
After another half-an-hour of ranting some duties, he sent the twins away.
Philip and Jack are stumped at the side.
”What are you doing? Watt.”
”Well, don't you think that boss needs someone to take care of his needs? Some of them which we cannot fulfill.” Watt said in a low voice.
Both of them were stumped again and with a slight pause, they started laughing until their stomachs were hurt.
