YM778.TV Chapter 136 Britney Leeway
…
As I walked outside, I found her standing there with her butler at a distance. The garden behind her, as she stared ahead with a worry-filled expression, gave an iconic scene that you only find in movies or perhaps paintings.
"I don\'t trust you," I hear her contemptful words as she speaks without turning towards me,"a child who isn\'t even 18 yet is trying to save my daughter and my husband, the most level headed person in the family, is trusting that child as if that child was his savior or something? Haha! Just how ridiculous it can get…"
I look at her for a few moments before I say,"it is not about trust," and then I begin walking as I continue,"I can save your daughter and she will be back to normal again… perhaps even better than she had ever been… isn\'t that what a mother should want?"
"And do you have proof? A proof that she will be able to live freely? A proof that she will be safe again? I have seen about a hundred different people trying their best or perhaps worst, both trying to save my daughter or manipulating my husband… do you know how much hard work I had to do to make sure nobody exploits him using my daughter?" Britney spears as she looks at me with a slight glare as she continues,
"And then you come… a child against whom I can\'t find even a speck of dirt, no matter how hard I try. In fact, what\'s more frustrating is that Rheo, whom I sent to get dirt on you, actually started talking about you in a good light about how capable you are."
Looking at her, I wondered if she had an issue with trusting strangers? Not just a normal issue, but something deeper behind that. Perhaps something might have happened?
"I don\'t want to get any more involved in this as much as I am, too, but one thing led to another I suppose…" I spoke and she looked at me with a slightly confused expression.
"Well… you might have heard how I got my life spared in exchange for treating your daughter using that contract, didn\'t I?"I asked making her look at me scornfully for a few moments before speaking,
"That is the exact reason I don\'t trust you, honestly. It was the situation that had forced you and maybe you just used my daughter to your advantage?"
I ponder over her words and speak again,"not really. I wouldn\'t have made that kinda deal to \'The Mark Leeway\', now would I? It is not sensible in any way."
She wanted to retort again but before she could speak again I spoke,"while we could argue for hours over this topic; I don\'t think we will reach a conclusion ever. The fact that you don\'t even trust a mana contract must mean that something huge must have happened to you to lose trust in almost everyone."
She shut her mouth immediately and looked at me with a slightly open eyed expression and before she could speak or do anything, I once again continued,
"Well… I am not really interested in your past. I don\'t even have anything to deal with related to you but… you are still the mother of the child I am about to save so the least I can do for you is to tell you that I will be saving your daughter for real without any trickery involved. While you may not believe it… but I suppose… I think it would be better if you wait and see everything for yourself?"
\'Doesn\'t make sense anyways… to tell the person who doesn\'t trust anyone, to trust me… but still, with this, if everything goes well, I can make her believe me and in turn use her if I ever need to do that, \' I thought before walking away from there.
It is not like she can do anything about it with Mark Leeway taking complete charge.
She kept gazing at me for a few moments as I passed from there before she spoke in a low but audible voice,"if you do end up saving my daughter… I\'ll… I will tell you something that you might find interesting."
I halted midway at her words and turned back only to see her walking inside Mark\'s office again, before pondering over her words… while I don\'t really want to know about her past and stuff… the word \'interesting\' really caught my attention here.
\'Maybe things are going to get a bit more complicated… or perhaps more interesting than I thought they would be,\' I thought as I moved forward.
As I was walking down the side way, I admired the aesthetic beauty of the garden to my left. It was oddly satisfying and I can really relax here in times of distress… like that lady in the green dress was doing so.
\'Irene Leeway,\' I recalled our interaction which occurred when I first entered this castle. Looking around, it seemed like she was all alone by herself. Though, I thought Linda would be with her, given how close friends they are.
Since I needed to get close to many of the Leeway members for a multitude of reasons, I think it would be better if I start talking to as many as I could.
