章 1316: Lady Linda's Fate (Part-6)

Alexander's lips visibly twitched hearing Miss Linda's demand and even felt his heart do a small leap.

'60 million ropals!' He cried inside, the joy he felt upon hearing her agree instantly dissipating at the premium ask.

And that was not even the worst bit. 

What she wanted him to answer was perhaps even more damning. 

'How did she figure it out?' Alexander found himself a bit alarmed, trying to figure out where he had messed up.

And as if sensing Alexander's incredulous gaze, Miss Linda let out a pleased chortle that reverberated across the whole room, "Hehe, what's wrong my lord? You look suddenly a bit pale! Did I say something untoward?" 

Those narrowing eyes looked down at Alexander like a bird of prey, sharply cutting into him like fearsome talons.

"Isn't my lady asking a bit too much?" The young pasha at last decided to open his mouth with a slightly forced smile.
