'Huh!? Why it's the 3rd option always like that? Wait! How can Grace's affection for the protagonist increase? '
Alex was once again dumbfounded by the third option's stupid choice. It was the same thing for Rose now it's happened again with Grace.
He wants to complain but he notices the 3rd option reward, This system will not do the blood-boiling thing as sending a woman to the protagonist.
So the only explanation is that, Protagonist will appear to help her, Which means the plot is changing. What he feared the most.
After currently, his knowledge of the plot is his best weapon against the protagonist after the system.
[Ding! The host you don't have to worry, There will be minor changes in the plot but the main plot will not change, This is just a world that will try to recover the plot.
But it's the limit of the world's will to make this small change in the world. It can not interfere with the main plot and the people, So the Host didn't have to be afraid of being struck by the heavenly thunder.]
Seeing that Alex misunderstood, System quickly explained it.
World's will is like the rule of this world, Who's job is to protect and maintain the protagonist but because it is a rule then it can't be too partial. That's why at best it can push some plot ahead of time but it can't directly interfere with it.
'Okay!? So I didn't have to worry about the will of the world? That's good."
Hearing the explanation of the system, Alex sighed in relief. Other than plot changes he is most worried about the interference of the world's will.
But now, He can openly oppose the protagonist without worrying about anyone. He just had to make sure he was careful enough to do it because even without the interference of the will, the Protagonist still had a lot of luck.
Although luck is an invisible thing and can't be trusted too much, it did affect a person's life. This effect is enough to tilt the favor of the life and death of a person.
"System, I chose the 2nd option."
Alex decided to think of that later, At this moment Grace was waiting for his answer.
"Ohh th-that I already spent 5000 UC."
So after selecting the 2nd option, He said these words to eager Grace.
He didn't lie, Old Alex already had spent all those 5000 UC in a day. After all, in his mind, He was the boyfriend of the Exotic company President. The company which comes in the top 3 beauty companies in the state.
The only reason he was taking money from his spare tire was that Alia gave him cash. She can buy him what he wants but that too with her card. She didn't give him any credit card like ML gives to FL in the novels.
"What!!! Did you spend it? Th-Then you didn't have any money?"
Hearing Alex saying this thing in a casual tone, Grace felt like something had broken in her. The hope that just rose has fallen once again.
This news hurt her the most. Feeling of dread spread in her heart, and The helplessness of this situation hit her heart.
After all, It was not the real hopelessness when you didn't have hope but it is when you saw the hope but lost it, When you are very close to being able to escape from your despair. That moment a person really falls into the abyss, the Void of any hope, A true hopelessness.
"Yeah, I treated my friends to dinner in a good restaurant."
Alex, Continue talking in a non caring tone as if he didn't have the despair in her eyes. He let god-level acting do its job. It's really a blessing to get this skill if not he really can't act like the brain dead Tsundere. From the 3rd perspective he saw how much his words hurt her, He saw the shine of her eyes dimmed visible to naked eyes.
To be honest, He kinda felt guilty for putting her through this but he can't help it. His life is on the line, Protagonist of this novel is meant for the . So there were lots of crazy things given to him by the stupid author.
All kinda super powerful stuff from heaven and earth to stupidly powerful superpowers, And of course, on each turn, there will be a woman who helps him in his conquest.
You can you say that protagonist didn't even let go of the female dog, Each and every beautiful woman has to be in his harem. That's the iron rule of this novel. If it was a novel he was reading before he passed through, he should have loved this type of novel but the problem is that, He was in this novel as a villain.
He was just glad that the protagonist didn't possess the system or he can't even imagine what kinda powers it will pull out of it.
"Y-You didn't have any mo-money on you now?"
Grace tremblingly asked, She just wanted to hear that he was joking and pulled out the cash but that didn't happen.
"Not really, I have a few hundred bucks on me."
Seeing that it was not enough emotional impact yet to trigger her talent, He had to continue with this thing. Just give her hope in the first half of the sentence and take away in the other half.
"That- "
As he predicted, Hope ignited in Grace's heart hearing his first words but that again died down hearing his last words.
[Ding! Raider target lost -10 favorability for the host. I am currently 65.]
[Ding! Target goes through a lot of emotional stimulation, Successfully unlocked her hidden talent.
The 2nd selection option is complete, and Rewards are being distributed...
•God-Level skill is rewarded.]
As the system's voice fell, Alex felt lots of information related to business appear in his mind, some additional things appeared but this time there is no time for him to look into them.
"Is that so... Don't worry about it Alex, I will arrange something."
Grace felt a bang in her mind and felt little pain in her brain but she ignored that. At this moment the pain in her was too much.
She felt a mixture of feelings. On one hand, she felt betrayed and thought Alex was playing with her but on another hand, she was glad that he at least owns up to it. She knows it will take a lot of courage to admit something like this.
As for his rude and uncaring words, She ignores them. In her mind, He was someone who was not able to notice emotions quickly, So she thought he just said those words without thinking about it.
"Oh...I almost forgot because of you, Here this is for aunty Gloria, You don't take it in a wrong way."
After completion of the task, He decided not to play with her anymore and quickly handed over the check, Of course without breaking his character.
"What is this- What!!!? This is too much money, You how-No I can't accept this much money, Alex. I just needed 5000."
Grace half-heartedly opened the "paper" in her eyes, But as she saw what it was, Her eyes almost fell off.
This was a check for the exact amount of the fees needed for the surgery of her mother, Holding the check she at first felt unreal but after she saw the name of the giver, The Exotic company, She believed it was real.
She knows Alex was the boyfriend of Alia, The President of the Exotic company.
After all, Alia was personally warning her to stay away from Alex but she too was stubborn. Once he likes someone, She will not give up easily. So a cold war was happening in them.
"Take it or not it's not up to you, Did you not hear? I said I gave this money to my beautiful aunty, So use it now. If something happens to her because of your stupid pride, I will never spare you."
Well... He spoke the standard words of Tsundere. After all, this kinda set she likes to eat, She also falls for the protagonists in the plot because of this trait.
"Th-Thank you, I will never forget this, Alex."
Grace was overwhelmed with emotions, There was huge guilt that she doubted him, and There was the relief of getting money for the surgery. There was also another strong emotion, Which she dared not show it yet.
So she is able to speak only these few words in a trembling tone. She made a pact in her heart that she will never doubt him again.
[Ding! +30 favorability increased for you by raider target. (Current 95)]
"Yeah, Yeah, Hurry up and submit that check, Banks will close soon."
Alex acted as his character and asked her to leave and submit that check. It's now close to evening. If she does not hurry up now, Banks will close.
"But-"
"Don't worry I will be here to take care of my aunt. You go and come back quickly."
Grace wanted to be worried about no one being here to respond to any emergency calls But Alex already knew what she would say, So he volunteered to stay there.
Of course, there was a different motive behind it too, He wanted to check if he predicted right, and the protagonist does show up here.
"Okay, Thank you once again, I will be coming back very soon."
Grace just wanted to hear these words, So after getting his confirmation. She hurriedly leaves the ward but unlike before this time there were no tears in her gem-like eyes but a sweet smile adorned her on her slender soft lips.
"Sorry sir, that's the private section of the ward, You can't enter it without the visiting pass."
After Grace leaves, the Sound of argument falls on Alex's ears. At first, he ignores it but then very familiar words are spoken by the other party.
(A/N : Yoo guys, How are you? Also, there will be a lemon that will start soon after chapter 10.
Point out the mistakes in the grammar if you find any.
Like always thank you for reading and have a good day 😁.)
