"May I know how both of you ended up in this situation?" Felix sugarcoated his question as much as possible.
He understood that anyone signing a slave contract seldom came without a shitty experience that was too hard to recall. By asking them this, he was doing nothing but opening up their wounds.
As expected, Malak expression's turned nasty instantly. She didn't seem like she was targeting Felix with her look.
'Well, she ain't answering that.' Felix shook his head lightly after seeing her reaction.
When he turned to Erik, Felix saw that he was being given a look meant for morons.
Before Felix could feel baffled by that look, Erik said with a casual tone, "Obviously because we signed a recruitment contract."

A desolate silence had descended in the room as both Felix and Malak felt like their brain had short-circuited.
