Chapter 145 Misunderstanding. (1/2)

Roland was not sure how to approach his second potential eed hi to poach a good worker frouild While he didn’t feel bad about that part he still was getting closer to his goal of beco th to ask the question Elodia was acting so the whole debacle, she was not composed and her eyes darted all over the place

“You wantto expandI can do alone…”

Roland tried continuing but he could feel that so and was ht?

She could have had so up other job offers She also could be the type that was loyal to her workplace

“Ah yes, of course, it would be work-related…”

He could hear her htening up Elodia was back to her old self and it looked like she was going to give him a reply That is, if a certain person didn’t call out to the sis and Wayland coether?”

Roland looked to the voice and spotted Elodia peeking out froe property He had been around here before but never took the tio inside Frorowing city had

There were actually only tith the bigger one belonging to the church of Solaria That one was er and had more funds that caet through their childhood days without many woes as they were provided for

It had soy-related classes if they ever wanted to stay past a certain age One of Roland’s old acquaintances came from such a place and she h this fact soes like this could be better for the developo in one particular direction but this depended on the caretakers

There was no ained here and without a sponsor, such establish from Roland’s perspective that Elodia was somehow able tohours so there were probably times where the kids remained without supervision From what he knew, there were three proper adults here Well, one of theh

“Good evening, Lobelia We were just talking about work”

Roland just nodded as he was not sure what the half-elf was getting at Lobelia on the other hand looked over to Elodia and started grinning for soed to explain the gist of the deal

There was not much that he could do here until he had the plans for the new store Elodia would require a contract, her wages needed to be decided and for what she would be responsible for

Roland wanted to force the bulk of the operation onto Elodia’s shoulders He did not want to worry about the accounting side of the business That didn’tthe books to see if sos like interior design, store uniforms, and what the er to take care of that part of the business while he focusedbehind the store counter was not soain

“Ms Elodia I hope you think about my proposal You don’t have to hurry as I haven’t decided about the store layout yet but if you decide to accept I would be glad for your input If you find yourself unconvinced I would also appreciate it if you could point ht direction, you probably know someone ould be interested?”

It was clear to hih the entire walk He wasn’t sure but ht If she refused then his only option would be to make a notice and then interview people

Without knowing many people in this city he would rather ask for the opinion of someone that he somewhat trusted He knew that this woman had a head on her shoulders and would probably point hiht direction

“Ah, yes Mr Wayland, I’ll give it a thought…”

She trailed off a bit at the end while bowing doith her head and slowly turning around It seeive his new endeavor so the contractors ready, with the city still being in develop

“Wait, you can’t just leave like that!”

While Roland was about to turn and go back hoe She was followed by two kids that quickly followed her instructions

“Get hi boys while Lobelia started yanking on his arer, Wayland, it’s already late How about you stay for soirl was yanking and the kids were trying to push him towards their house, he reh and with his ive warriors at level hundred a run for their money

“damn, what are you made of?”

Luckily for himent to Lobelia’s head with a quick fist strike The two kids that were pushi+ng and pulling hi away

“Run for it, big sis is angry!”

They scattered in two separate directions which caused Elodia to stop It was clear that these two knew that if they separated that she couldn’t get them both This was clearly not their first rodeo but he wasn’t sure if they realized that they would have to return hoet punished anyway

“Wayland, what are you doing here?”

While he was free froer child arrived It was Ar a half-empty bottle that was probably filled with cheap booze Roland didn’t answer as he was still ready to just go, instead, he saw Lobelia sprinting over to hi into his year

“No… them?”

He then turned around and looked at Elodia with a raised brow His gaze then turned to Roland before going back to Elodia once rinning at each other

“Well… then I’ll be going, Ms Elodia please think over ?”

Instead of being able to leave, he felt Arot dangerously close

“What are you doing?”

He asked but was just petted on the shoulder instead

“Don’t be a stranger, I’m sure you’ll love the stew!”

Now instead of Lobelia and the kids trying to pull hi a loer noould have to actually actively resist Aret pulled inside

For some reason, the two kids returned withyanked inside by two adults and five kids In the corner of his eye, he could see Elodia rubbing her forehead which was showing a large forehead vein It was clear that she was about to blow a gasket

While deliberating on what to do an ie of Bernir popped into his head He recalled hi hie and should meet more people

His relationshi+p with Arh the ht he was an idiot, he was more or less a harmless one Lobelia was a chatterbox and Elodia wasover would not be such a bad idea and it could sway his potential employee to accept him as her new boss?
