Chapter 48: Bastian returns

"I know, Uncle," Mark proudly nodded his head.

"Good. Do you want chocolate?" Ryder said.

"Yes, Uncle. I love chocolate," Mark replied as he nodded his head excitedly.

"I have a chocolate that I brought from Chocolate Land. It cost a billion dollars, but I can sell it to you cheap. Are you willing to buy it?" Ryder said.

He took out a chocolate from his pocket and showed it to Mark.

"From Chocolate Land?" Mark licked her lips as he greedily stared at the chocolate in his hand.

"I’m willing, but I don’t have a billion dollars," Mark sadly said.

"As I said, I’ll sell it to you cheap. Just give me everything you own, and I’ll sell you this chocolate," Ryder innocently said.

He kept making the chocolate dance right before Mark’s eyes. He wasn’t letting him take his eyes off of the chocolate.

"I’ll do it!" Mark said as he hurriedly nodded his head.

"Good. Sign here then,"

Ryder brought out a document and placed it before Mark.

The document said that Mark was making Ryder the owner of everything he owned.

"I don’t have a pen, Uncle," Mark reacted.

"It’s fine. I have a pen," Ryder said.

He gave a pen to Mark. He came fully prepared. He couldn’t let anything go wrong after all.

Mark signed the paper where he pointed.

"Good boy. Here you go," Ryder gave the chocolate to Mark and placed the document in his shirt pocket.

[Ding... Mission Completed. The system will be inaccessible for 2 hours as it will be going through an upgrade.]

He heard Janus’ voice.

A smile appeared on Ryder’s face as he heard the announcement. Finally, his headache was over.

He stood up and turned to leave. His mission was completed.

But as soon as he started walking towards the exit, Esmi came out of her office.

She was looking for Mark, but her eyes opened wide in surprise as she noticed Ryder.

"Ryder!" She called out.

Ryder was surprised to hear the voice. It was the voice he didn’t want to hear after all. He realized that it was the voice of Esmi. He wanted to leave silently and not disturb her in this dangerous place.

He couldn’t leave, unfortunately. He turned back to look at the person who called him, and just as he had expected, it was Esmi.

"Come with me," Esmi said as she glared at Ryder.

"That’s going to be bad," Ryder sighed with a wry smile as he started walking towards Esmi.

He entered her office. Esmi closed the door behind her.

"You came here, and you didn’t even try to meet me? Were you trying to sneak out?" She said with a smile on her face

She sat on top of her table and rested one leg above the other as she faced Ryder.

"Not at all. I didn’t want to disturb you in the office. How have you been?" Ryder asked.

"I’ve been good. But I keep wondering. Why didn’t you call me after that night?" Esmi said with a pout.

"Ah, well. I didn’t have your number, and I was hesitating in coming to this place like that," Ryder answered her as he tried his hardest to keep his focus on her face instead of something else.

"Why were you hesitating? You think that you can abandon me after all that?" She said with a smirk.

"Well, I don’t want your position to get affected because of me," Ryder was trying to talk, but Esmi placed her fair fingers on his lips and stopped him.

She got down from her table as she moved behind Ryder. She wrapped her arms around him as she brought her lips closer to his ears.

"You can’t be so unfair to me. I feel like I’m empty without you," She whispered in his ears.

"That..," Ryder couldn’t think of what to say since it was his own decision.

"You might be worried about being with me, but there’s no way I’m letting you leave me. It’s been such a long time since I finally have a man I like," She chuckled lightly as she came to the front.

She sat on Ryder’s lap and kissed his lips.

Ryder also gave up resisting.

He wrapped his arms around her as he passionately answered her kiss.

________________________

While Ryder was giving the fruit of forbidden pleasure to his Esmi, his best friend was right outside the club.

Surprisingly, Bastian had come to the club with a girl.

He was easily allowed entry with the girl.

As he entered the Club, the first thing he noticed was Mark sitting alone at the table.

He walked up to Mark and sat on the chair near him.

Although there was another chair nearby, the girl decided to sit on Bastian’s lap. Bastian didn’t mind it as he started rubbing on her thighs.

"Hey Mark, Why are you looking at that chocolate so intensely?" Bastian asked as he looked at Mark in front of him.

Mark had a bar of chocolate in his hand, but he wasn’t eating it. He was just staring at it.

"I... I want to eat it, uncle. But if I do that, I will finish it. I don’t know what I should do," Mark said with a face that looked like it would cry at any minute.

"Hahaha... I didn’t know you liked chocolates so much. Anyways, You have so much money, man. You can buy as many chocolates as you need," Bastian couldn’t help but laugh as he saw Mark’s reaction.

"It’s special chocolate from Chocolate Land, Uncle. There is only one. I can’t get any," Finally, tears appeared in Mark’s eyes as he hugged the chocolate.

Bastian was frowning as he heard his reply. He didn’t know what was happening, nor did he want to get involved. He felt like Mark was messing with him.

"Where’s aunt?" He asked.
