Chương 9: Personal Assistant with The Quotes

"W-what business do you mean, sir?" asked Marion, unable to shake off her nervousness this time.

Even though she tried her best to get rid of the lecherous thoughts that had crossed her mind, she was still in front of William Reynz, her charming but mysterious boss, whom she admitted she couldn't deny if he managed to even touch her skin.

Marion swallowed her saliva, as William's scent wafted and swirled in her nostrils. Her breath hitched for a moment, as she couldn't swallow her nervousness.

What about that man? Did he feel the same way Marion felt right now? Why does he seem so rightfully disturbed by this condition?

He was still standing in front of Marion with a calm, dignified, and very intimidating attitude towards the girl in front of him.

"A business between us." William still looked calm. Rather, trying to appear calm.

How could he not be nervous, the girl in front of him according to Ange might be his soul mate. How could it be? That girl is only human. Has no blood descendants of the same faction as William. So is it appropriate if used her as a mate?

The man snorted. "It's gotta be kidding," he mumbled.

"Uh ... what?" The girl rolled her eyes when she accidentally heard a snippet of the sentence that was spoken by William.

"No, nothing. Let's just go back to the office and discuss everything there."

Right. Seems like it would be more 'safe' if they finished the business in the office. At the same time persuade Marion to immediately sign the contract. Or ... should he change the contract a bit? Maybe ... to be a little more formal.

Especially after he failed to make Marion his meal. Maybe it would be better if he followed Ange's words, tagged the girl, then gave her a contract. Then after so many months, he would erase the mark, and their business would be over.

Is that so easy?

Then why did he signal to Marion if there should be such a contract? Will Marion just be a tool for his biological needs? And once he gets bored then the contract ends?

No, no!

William wasn't that bad.

The man never even vents his desire just like that. He is a picky and loyal man, of course.

So far, no woman has managed to screw himself up like what Marion had done to him since the girl's appearance.

So, why was it so easy for him to do it with Marion at that time? The answer is obvious because what he feels, what he breathes, and how his body reacts when he is around her are very different from how he feels when he is around other women.

Very different.

So can he say he's fine? Could he say that Marion was nothing to him? What if Ange was right, that William would end up making a loss if he didn't signal Marion too and then the girl was taken by someone else?

William shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off whatever was bothering him. What he had to do right now was secure Marion in writing first. Just so Marion knows what is and isn't allowed for her.

Right, like that is better.

"I've revised the contract letter for you. The contents are relatively the same. Only, I added some important articles there that you must do."

Marion gaped in reaction to what her strange boss had done.

She had not even signed the previous letter, she had to read and re-understand another strange chapter. She's really tired. And hunger.

Is it okay if the work is postponed until tomorrow?

"Sir, can't we eat first? I really can't think straight when I'm hungry," Marion whined, just like the kids asking permission to be allowed to eat candy.

William didn't change his expression at all. "Don't worry. I asked Leah to bring us some nutritious food."

"Oh, thank goodness."

"Therefore, while you wait, reread the chapters you haven't read."

Marion widened her eyes when she heard William's order. Reluctantly, she finally opened the pages in front of her, reading carefully what was written there.

***

Marion's beads went wide when she arrived in the third clause of the 10th point. Once again she was amazed by this man's way of thinking.

"Acting not only as a personal assistant who serves things beyond taboo limits, but also includes fulfilling needs that are considered irrational, if the first party wants? What does that mean, sir? Can you explain this?"

The question that is currently spinning in Marion's mind is what are things that are considered taboo and what are not? And what was Marion to do, which was included in William's 'will'?

"You mean I have to play the mistress? Who serve for everything including—"

"Yes."

"What? Are you out of your mind, William Reynz!? No one has ever dared to look down on me like this, and this—you are amazing!"

Marion slammed the pile of papers on the table, then grabbed her bag and walked away. But, it was clear, that William would not let the girl go just like that.

With quick steps that Marion didn't notice, William was in front of the girl, holding out the paper she had thrown on the table, opened to another page that Marion had not had time to read.

"You should have read the next page. In the same chapter, the next point."

Marion stared at the man's brown irises, hesitating, trying to read what William was thinking which made Marion chuckle in annoyance. She then grabbed the paper from the man's hand. Without changing positions, she immediately read and understood carefully.

'The first party is not allowed to make or give physical contact, in any form, without the permission of the second party or without mutual consent.'

"This is insane! I never knew there was such an employment contract. I was hired only to be a mistress, which even if you add any clauses or points to make it seem polite, is still disgusting to my eyes, Mr. Reynz! I'm tired today. If I don't come tomorrow, don't wait or look for me."

Marion was serious about what she said this time. Everything that William had arranged for her, was beyond her limits and could not be accepted by her common sense.

Marion, a girl who has even been nicknamed a cave girl because she believes too much in conventional rules—who ultimately gives up her virginity to a mysterious man who until now she doesn't know what and who—must follow the wishes of her boss who may have dirty intentions in it.

She could read that.

It was up to William to think of Marion as a reckless girl, but the man had to know, that Marion was not something that could be stored and worn for a certain period. Especially if it doesn't guarantee that she will be fine while carrying out her duties as William's 'personal assistant'.

Would it be okay if she added quotes to the word personal assistant pinned to her by the man? Because as far as she knows, that's what she's currently wearing. The veiled comfort woman.

However, if she doesn't accept the contract, what about the costs needed for the treatment of Jeremiah Alsen—her father who is currently being treated at a rehabilitation center for a rare disease he suffers from?

Moreover, no doctor has yet been able to identify exactly what illness Marion's father is suffering from, which has forced all medical officers to be confined and exiled him.
