Chapter 178 - The Noble Adelaide

Chapter 178: The Noble Adelaide

“Mr. Locke, welcome! Of course, there’s also this new friend!”

The young Count Adelaide was dressed in white today and the delicate fan in his hand was in the same color.

“I need your help with something… Let’s get some food first and talk while we eat.” Although it was a new residence, due to Adelaide’s obsessive-compulsive disorder, the decorations here were no different from the previous manor.

Locke felt as if he had returned to his own home. He sat on the sofa, cut a cigar on the table, and enjoyed it.

However, Douglas’s reaction was completely the opposite. To be exact, it was shock! A shock that came from the bottom of his heart!

As a retainer of a large family, Douglas naturally knew about the one of the top jewelers in the entire continent!

The two families had done some small business before.

Although Douglas had never met Adelaide, judging from his white clothes and the precision of the items in his house, he was undoubtedly the master of the Estelle family!

What surprised Douglas even more was that!

Locke was so young but he was not nervous in front of Adelaide. The two of them were still talking and laughing!

This well-known count even personally poured tea for Locke!

If someone in the Trent family dared to treat father and son like this, that person’s skin would probably be peeled off!

“Greetings, Count…” As Douglas had been educated by the Trent father-and-son for many years, he could not change his habits for the time being. He greeted them and was ready to kneel down on one knee.

Adelaide immediately went forward to interrupt him, saying, “There’s no need for that! Mr. Locke’s friend is my friend! Please sit down! Don’t stand on ceremony!”

Douglas nodded slightly and sat down beside Locke.

“Don’t worry! I’ve already arranged for the chef to work since you entered my house thirty kilometers away!”

Locke chuckled. “Hehe, are you that careful? I thought you hired many Beastmasters to be your security guards?”

Waving his fan, Adelaide smiled and said, “It’s better to be safe than sorry! I can’t always trouble Mr. Locke! I definitely don’t wish for our relationship to just be an employer and employee! We should be friends who can talk about everything!

“Oh right! In less than 15 minutes, you’ll be able to taste the most delicious Daemon meat! This morning, a batch of black truffles was sent over and I also asked the chef to prepare it…”

Knowing that Locke enjoyed delicious food, Adelaide put in a lot of effort to please him! He had specially set up a “food search department” in the company, just to look for rare delicacies in the entire continent.

It was not that Adelaide was flattering Locke. It was because Locke had unintentionally helped him a lot!

Once the Trent family of Gold City collapsed, no other family had the ability to compete with the Estelle family for the jewelry business in Gold City.

Although it had only been a day, under the leadership of the head butler, Löw, they had acquired a large number of Trent family’s shops.

They had instantly occupied more than 60% of the market in Gold City! They had struck it rich!

With Locke’s name, other families in Gold City did not dare to cause trouble!

The monthly gratitude fee to Locke was really worth it!

“Mr. Locke! You may not know it but you’ve helped me a lot this time! In Gold City, my family’s business will definitely be smooth sailing in the future…” As he spoke, Adelaide took out a check that he had prepared in the morning and handed it to Locke. “This is the fee for the gratitude…”

As Locke held it in his hand, he saw that it was three billion!

Douglas, who was sitting beside Locke, was stunned!

It was too generous!

However, compared to the future benefits in Gold City, this was really not a big sum.

After puffing out a mouthful of cigar, Locke glanced at the check and put it in his arms with a peace of mind. Then, he said, “We came here to ask for your help! We want to go to Gold City as soon as possible, but the journey is a little far. Can you help us solve the problem?”

“How long will it take to set off?”

“After dinner.”

The two seemed to have some tacit understanding as friends. The conversation was simple and clear.

“Shua!”

Putting away the fan, Adelaide picked up the phone in the living room and dialed a number.

“Listen well! I’m in Manor Six now! Immediately arrange for my fastest private jet to come here. Yes! Right away!”

What Locke admired most about Adelaide was that he was generous, modest, and more importantly, he was quite efficient in doing things!

Compared to those noblemen who were just waiting to die, it was like heaven and Earth.

Locke did not know how Adelaide had developed these personalities and skills in his twenties.

In short, Locke was impressed!

After hanging up the phone, the servant brought some coffee over.

The two continued to chat. Douglas was still a little nervous and did not dare to interrupt.

Locke also told Adelaide about Douglas’ situation.

After drinking a mouthful of coffee, Adelaide said with a regretful expression, “Sigh… The Trent family’s reputation has always been bad but it’s rare that your heart hasn’t changed. You’re really a good man…”

“It’s a pity that you’re already working at the academy. Otherwise, you’d definitely be the captain of my security team! But it doesn’t matter! I’m also an investor and one of the shareholders of the academy. Let’s keep in touch in the future! Here’s my business card. If you need anything, come find me! You don’t have to be polite! Hahaha…”

Adelaide let out a hearty laugh.

As an “insulator” who did not have any mana Adelaide hoped to be able to interact with more powerful Beastmasters.

Although the curse had not been removed, he could not give up on the hope of “living.”

After Douglas carefully put away the business card with gold inlaid on it, the fifteen minutes Adelaide spoke of had just ended.

A fragrance that made one’s appetite soar entered everyone’s nostrils.

After eating the delicious and extravagant dishes, Adelaide’s private plane also stopped at the airport of the manor.

“Mr. Locke, I have a lot of private planes! But this one is the fastest! Don’t worry about the service…”

Just as Adelaide was explaining, the cabin door of the small, high-end plane opened.

Two beautiful women in sexy clothes walked over with charming smiles and saluted.

After giving a suggestive look to Locke, Adelaide said, “You’re welcome…”

“Sir! The flight time is about four hours! If there’s anything you need, ask the waiter to contact me!” With that, the captain returned to the cockpit.

After taking off, the two beautiful girls brought over desserts and high-end drinks.

“Do you two need a massage? We’re professionals…” The two girls showed off their figures both intentionally and unintentionally, and their beautiful eyes faintly giving off suggestive hints.

Douglas blushed and coughed on purpose. “No, I want to sleep…”

The truth was that Douglas had promised Diana that he would never touch other women.

Locke did not care and asked the two girls to massage him. He looked at Douglas who was pretending to sleep and said, “I’ll definitely take you with me when I come out. Anyway, all the benefits are mine.”
