Chapter 240 - Prince Siegfried (2) (2/2)

The young man smiled sarcastically, ”Huh... do you think money can solve everything? All right. My compensation is one million dollars.”

Without blinking Lauriel handed over his cellphone, ”Write down your account details, I'll transfer it now.”

The young man gasped, he did not expect Lauriel would take his challenge so casually.

”Hmm... I won't give you my account details. I will make you owe me forever.” Finally, he answered lazily and waved his hand at Lauriel's cellphone. He wiped the blood off the corner of his lips and with a short sigh he took off his torn shirt. ”Damn... I really like this shirt.”

He took off his shirt and rolled it up and placed it on the seat. Lauriel was somewhat surprised to see that there were many scars on the young man's body and on his right chest was a scary-looking dragon tattoo.

”Hey, that's Prince Siegfried!” Aleksis exclaimed suddenly, pointing to the dragon tattoo on the young man's chest.

The man who heard Aleksis call him 'Prince Siegfried' could not help laughing, ”Haha... Prince Siegfried. You are so funny, Little girl...”

He took a new shirt from his backpack and quickly put it on and tidied his belongings back in the bag. He seemed to think for a moment, then went to Aleksis and Lauriel.

”I now understand that you didn't have bad intentions. You just want to protect the child and you hit me because you thought I kidnapped her...” he said in a stern voice. ”I will not prolong this problem and consider this just a misunderstanding between us.”

Lauriel nodded. He usually hated humans, but this young man didn't seem too bad. In fact, inwardly Lauriel felt a sense of tenderness toward the strange young man in front of him. He looked like someone who was used to a hard life.

”Uhm... thank you for taking care of my goddaughter. Whenever you need help, whatever it is, you can contact me.” Lauriel took out a paper and pen from his pocket, then wrote his cellphone number there. He then handed the paper along with a small bottle from his bag. ”That's my personal cellphone number. I owe you one. Even if it's a million dollars, I'll pay it.”

The young man gave a short snort, but no longer looked as sarcastic as before, ”The rich man and his money. Hmm... okay. I keep your number. What is this bottle for?”

”There are a lot of scars on your body... so I suspect your life is pretty hard. Next time you get hurt, rub some of the medicinal oil from the bottle onto your wound to prevent infection. It will also heal the wound faster,” Lauriel said nonchalantly. He then carried Aleksis. ”Come on, Aleksis... let's go back to our carriage. You have to sleep so we don't get tired when we get to Chiang Mai. Tomorrow Uncle will rent a car. We don't need to take public transportation anymore...”

Aleksis turned towards the young man and waved warmly, ”See you later, Prince Siegfried...”

'Prince Siegfried' smiled sweetly and waved back. ”See you later, Little Princess.”

Lauriel thought to ask for the name of the young man, but then he canceled his intention. After all, he had given him his cellphone number. Whenever the young man wanted to contact him to collect his debt or compensation, whatever it was, he would pay it. Aleksis was worth far more than all his wealth combined.
