Chapter 10: Offer

Mr. Adolpho's eyes dilated and fluttered in confusion. "Offer... something?" His eyes narrowed and a slight frown emerged on his face.

"Yes." Adrik grinned and leaned back on the sofa.

"Okay, what do I have to offer? Mr. Adolpho nodded his head, and he fixed his gaze on Adrik.

Adrik stared at him and a half-smile formed on his lips. He crossed his legs and folded his hands. "Offering one of your daughters to me is a good way to seal up our deal." He grinned and intently watched Mr. Adolpho. "So... what do you think?" 

Mr. Adolpho's eyes flickered in confusion and he couldn't help but clear his throat, which suddenly became dry. "My... daughter..." He rubbed the back of his head, and a grimace emerged on his face. There is no way he is going to offer his daughter to this man. He might be a greedy man like some people say, but he has a conscience.

He raised his eyes and gazed at Adrik with an awkward smile on his face. "Uhm... Is there no other request that can seal up our deal?" He stared at him with anticipation in his eyes, hoping that he would request something else.

Adrik's face turned a few shades darker and his folded hands unfolded. "If it's not that, no other request will work." His deep, cold voice resounded, startling Mr. Adolpho, who was staring at him.

Mr. Adolpho clenched his fist and his gritted teeth crashed in annoyance. What type of human being is this?!? He is certain that if they switched roles, he would not give any of his daughters to him.

He pinched between his brows in annoyance, clearly indicating he had no idea what to do. He can't give his precious daughters to this man! He raised his eyes and glanced at Adrik. His tongue clicked in annoyance, and he shook his head. He can't do this! His daughters are not pieces of jewelry that he can offer and sell-off. He won't mind canceling the deal, even though it will be a huge loss for him.

A deep breath left his mouth and he raised his head, ready to cancel the contract. However, a lightbulb suddenly popped up in his head and a wide grin made its way to his lips. He stared at Adrik and jovially rubbed his hands. "I have thought about your request, and it's my pleasure to tell you that the deal is on. I will happily bestow one of my daughters on you as a wife."

Adrik drew his head back, a little surprised. He wasn't expecting that. He expected him to take quite a while to think about it, but contrary to his expectations, he agreed so quickly. He nodded and smiled at Mr. Adolpho with narrowed eyes. He cleared his throat and stood up from the sofa. "It was nice speaking with you. Adrik adjusted his white suit and yanked his hands into his pocket. "See you in five days," he said as he walked away from the sofa.

He had just taken two steps forward, but suddenly halted and turned around to stare at Mr. Adolpho. "One last thing... It will be a court marriage." He walked out of the mansion in large strides, without bothering to hear what Mr. Adolpho had to say.

Mr. Adolpho gazed at the door, which Adrik left open, and a deep scowl appeared on his face. Just because he is the richest man in the world doesn't mean he should be rude to everyone. He was like an elder to him, yet he was being so rude. He shook his head and walked towards the elevator.

Adrik sat inside his car with a leisurely expression on his face. His emerald green eyes gazed out of the window, and he let out a soft sigh. "Why aren't you asking me anything?" He averted his gaze from the sky to Alex, who was driving the car.

Alex took a deep breath and glanced at him through the small mirror hanging inside the car. "I will never question you or your decisions as I believe that each one of them has a reason-" His grip on the steering wheel tightened and a pessimistic expression emerged on his face. "-However, I am worried."

Adrik interlocked his fingers and resumed gazing out through the window. His eyes fluttered, and he took a deep, pessimistic breath.

"I understand the reason why you are doing this," Alex continued, "but Supreme Alpha, what about the consequences? It is not something we can handle." He shook his head, and an apprehensive expression became visible on his face.

Adrik pinched between his brows, and he glanced at Alex. "Don't worry, I will never walk into the fire, and if I ever do, I will not drag you in with me. A half-smile formed on his lips, and he slightly shook his head.

"Please don't ever say again. I will always be loyal to you." Alex took a slight breath and glanced at Arik, whose gaze was fixated outside. "Uhm... Supreme Alpha, may I ask what happened back there?" His brow was raised in a questioning manner.

"I have no idea..." Adrik's gaze became distant. "I felt her... Kai did too. He couldn't control himself."

"What? How is that possible? " Alex's eyes dilate in bewilderment "Supreme Alpha, your wolf has never lost control of himself before." He glanced at Adrik in disbelief.

"I am also perplexed. I have never failed to control him before, but back there... it was just... that blood. It's caused so much rage to burn within Kai." Adrik let out a deep sigh and his hands balled into fists. He doesn't understand what happened to him back there.

"Okay, have you talked to him?

"He is not responding to me." Adrik shook his head, and a frown emerged on his face. His wolf has never given him the silent treatment before. Well, maybe sometimes when they argue, but that silent treatment is different compared to this. He clicked his tongue in frustration and tapped his fingers on his thigh.

Alex, who was driving, bit his lips and shook his head, unwilling to believe what his Alpha just said.. He fell silent and smoothly drove them back home.
