章節 10: Chapter 10

“Something like that, Mr. Street.”

Mr. Street was obviously excited now. “Please do that. Money is no problem. Anything for my ancestors.”

Connor shook his head. “I don’t require payment for that service, but if you insist on giving me money, you may donate it to a charitable organization on my behalf.”

“I can do that. Anything else?”

“The story behind the watches, Mr. Street…?” Connor reminded while gazing at them.

“Oh, right. Well, as I’ve mentioned, the story is a bit of a sensitive subject.”

“Discretion is our policy,” Harley interjected before Connor could utter a single word.

Connor was highly amused now. Harley was just as curious as his client.

“Okay. You see, back in the day, men and women in families like mine had to get married. It was practically the law. I’m sure you understand what I mean.”

Connor certainly did. He was thousands of years old, so he knew what Mr. Street was referring to. “We do. Continue, please.”
