Listening to the Field Marshal agree to the updated wager, Wyatt chuckled. His manipulation seemed to have worked a lot better than he had thought. But then, he thought it might be because the Field Marshal genuinely cared about him. Otherwise, he could not see a reason why an esteemed demigod like herself would be bothered to propose such a wager in the first place.

This made Wyatt feel a little guilty, but this was also why he did not ask the Field Marshal to take an oath or enter a contract for the wager. He trusted her to uphold her stake if she lost just like how she trusted him to do the same.

Wyatt's relationship with the Southern royal family was very complicated. The Southern royal family was like the overbearing parents who constantly undermined their son and wanted him to do as they said while Wyatt was like the rebellious son who did everything in his power to get his way and prove them wrong, even if it meant manipulating his metaphorical parents. Hopefully, one day the Southern Royal family and Wyatt manage to get past these games and trust each other.

"Mmh mum mmh," Cortney kept struggling to say something with her mouth gagged by celestial force, she could not get a single word out. She then resorted to using Bloodette as her mouthpiece, "Wyatt, Cortney is telling when she manages to get herself free she will kick your ass and make you apologize to her."

Soon Wyatt's head manifested next to Cortney and reasoned with her, "Cortney, I know you do not agree with my opinion but as my friend can't you support me?"

Listening to Wyatt's words, Cortney stopped struggling and then after a quick contemplation, feeling the restraint on her mouth vanish, she said, "Why should I? When you did not support me. This was my idea until you made a mockery of it. Not only did you not apologize to me but you dared to restrain me and ask me to support your foolishness. You have some nerve, Dalton Wyatt."

Hearing Cortney call him by his full name, Wyatt knew she was genuinely mad at him this time. However, knowing Cortney's weak point, he replied with a hint of sadness, "I know I have been a bad friend but Cortney, I need you. Please can you forgive me this once and help me?"

Listening to Wyatt plead for her help, Cortney's eyes widened. She did not expect him to apologize to her, let alone plead for her help. Her expression finally eased and she muttered, "Well since you asked it nicely, I will help."

As impulsive and wild as Cortney was, it made her too predictable. Making her an easy target to please. With Cortney's anger handled, Wyatt turned to Diana and Cindy, but before he could speak, Diana said, "Don't worry, boss. You will always have our support. Though we do not think people willing to kill to pass the time can value human life we have full faith in you and your decision. So, we will do our best to help you."

"What the fuck, Diana?" Cortney yelled in disbelief and then complained, "I begged you to help me so many times but both of you gave up without trying but now you are going all in his foolish idea even him without having to ask you to him?"

"He is our beloved boss. He will always have our support. Besides, he knows what he wants and how to do it but you had zero idea what you wanted not to mention how to do it. You wanted us to give you all the answers. But he has all the answers and just needs some assistance," Diana said with firm eyes, Cindy nodded her head vigorously agreeing with Diana.

"Kiss ass," Cortney commented, listening to Diana point out the flaws in her way of asking for help to them.

"Enough about this. Do you guys have something else to update me on?" Wyatt changed the topic, feeling Cortney might explode if they continued on the same topic since Diana and Cindy did not have her back when she needed it.

lights??v?l ??m "Yes, Boss." Diana nodded and then looking at Cindy, she said, "You should report it since you are leading the project."

"Thank you, Diana," Cindy thanked Diana for not trying to steal her role and then reported to Wyatt, "Boss, during our recent investigation we have learned that someone in the north is selling mass-produced pleasure cards. Their concept is the same as our pleasure card business model, but since I was unable to get my hands on their pleasure card I have no idea how good or bad their product is.

But according to the customer review so far, it is said to be worth the price and satisfactory. It appears someone beat us to the punch and has already claimed the central region market with their mass-produced pleasure cards. It would not be long for them to spread to other regions.

As for us, we are still nowhere near improving the response and reactions of our slime fairy pleasure cards. However, seeing that we already have a competitor I think we should release the unfinished products in the market. They are good enough. Because one the other pleasure car monopolizes the market it will be hard for our products to enter the market, let alone become a success."

Wyatt patiently listened to Cindy's report and recommendation. Then, with a gentle smile, he said, "I know who our competitor is. I allowed him to copy our pleasure card business idea. So, I can confidently tell you, that you are looking at it in the wrong way.

Trust me, he is not our competitor monopolizing the market. Instead, he is someone helping us create a market for pleasure cards. With his status and authority, he can help us deal with all the sanctions and regulations that we were worried would hinder our pleasure cards.

Once he opens up the market for pleasure cards, we will sweep the market with our fully developed pleasure cards and monopolize the market in a single attempt. So don't get distracted by it and continue according to our schedule."

Listening to Wyatt assure them, Cindy, Diana, and Vivian nodded while Cortney and Bloodette wondered what pleasure cards were. Just then, the Field Marshal's voice sounded in Wyatt's mind, 'What are you doing? You do know you only have less than Eight hours to free the Clown Mask, right?
