"You...” Bidegla's anger almost killed him, twisting Vilon Daphne's face in the process. He used money to attack Bidegla, never expecting Bidegla to retaliate in the same manner. As the Vice President of Dragon Source Real Estate, he had never been so wronged. If Tara Lassen wasn't here, he would have beaten up the patient Bidegla.
"Young man, remember what you said today, you will regret it." Coldly leaving these words behind, he turned and walked away, even throwing the flowers in his hand to the ground. Allowing an unknown person to humiliate him, how could he swallow this pride?
As he left the hospital, he immediately made a phone call, speaking quietly on the other end before hanging up and turning to the hospital, revealing a chilling smile. Whoever crossed him would have to pay the price.
Tara Lassen, the woman he was determined to have, no one could take her away. He could see that Bidegla was just a temporary boyfriend, not Tara Lassen's true partner. But since Bidegla dared to insult him, he was determined to teach him a lesson. He was not one to be bullied.
"Thank you." In the hospital room, Tara Lassen released Bidegla, her face slightly flushed. This time, thankfully Bidegla was there, otherwise, she would have had a hard time refusing Vilon Daphne.
"No need to thank me, I am your husband after all. Come on, call me husband again." Looking at Tara Lassen, Bidegla teased.
"Get lost." A pillow was thrown at Bidegla.
"Alright, what do you want in return for helping me this time?" Tara Lassen said with annoyance, but with less resentment than before.
"Hmm." Gazing at Tara Lassen's graceful figure, Bidegla's eyes also showed some heat, causing Tara Lassen to change her expression and quickly cover her chest, stepping back and saying, "I warn you, I sell my art, not my body."
"Tsk, who said anything about selling your body?" Bidegla glanced at her without flinching, saying, "I'm a little hungry, go buy me some food, consider it a repayment."
"That's it?" Tara Lassen looked at Bidegla in disbelief, unable to believe this pervert's simple request.
"Do you want me to ask for something else?" Thinking about it, Bidegla's eyes became heated again, with a hint of wickedness.
"Then I'll just go buy you some food to shut you up, you jerk." With that, Tara Lassen quickly left the room.
About half an hour later, when Bidegla felt like he was about to fall asleep, Tara Lassen returned with some food. She didn't bring much, just a few small dishes and two bowls of porridge. He hadn't eaten all day and was starving.
So he took the food without hesitation and started eating, while Tara Lassen watched in disbelief as Bidegla devoured it all, even forgetting to curse at him.
This man must be a refugee who escaped from Africa. What kind of hunger must he have endured?
"Why aren't you eating with me?" Bidegla looked up at Tara Lassen and asked.
"Forget it, you eat by yourself." Seeing Bidegla so hungry, Tara Lassen couldn't bring herself to take food away from him.
"Then I won't be polite." With that, Bidegla devoured the food.
"You eat by yourself, I have to go back." With that, Tara Lassen left the room, intending to share the food she bought for two people. But now, Bidegla had eaten her share as well, leaving her hungry.
"What a pig." With that, she left the hospital, feeling disappointed.
In the hospital ward, Bidegla quickly finished the food brought back by Taralalasen. Since practicing this Qi Gathering Art, he felt that his appetite had increased significantly. Previously, he could not eat so much. But as the saying goes, being able to eat is a blessing, so Bidegla was very satisfied.
After filling his five internal organs, Bidegla began to practice the Qi Gathering Art slowly. However, before he could practice for long, he was awakened by the noise of the door opening. When he opened his eyes, he saw a tired-looking Jennie Laura. After a busy day, Jennie Laura appeared quite haggard, but in her hands, she was carrying some food, apparently meant for Bidegla's dinner.
"Have you eaten?" Jennie Laura asked.
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.
"Not yet," Bidegla wanted to say that he had already eaten, but seeing Jennie Laura looking so exhausted and still bringing him dinner, he couldn't bear to say it.
"It's good that you haven't eaten. Let's eat together," she said, taking out all the food she had brought.
It must be said that the dinner Jennie Laura brought was much more abundant than what Taralalasen had brought before. Chicken legs, sea cucumbers, abalones, and even more delicious dishes that Bidegla had never eaten. Just looking at the appearance of the food, Bidegla was already starving.
"Look at how hungry you are. You probably haven't eaten anything all day, right?" Jennie Laura said, giving Bidegla a strange look before handing him the bowl and chopsticks. "Eat."
"Okay."
After that, it was a feast until Bidegla felt that his stomach could no longer hold any more food, and he put down his chopsticks in disappointment.
"Jennie, was the stone cutting today smooth?" Bidegla asked.
"Well, I cut about half of it," Jennie Laura said, giving him a very strange look.
Although Bidegla had already told her that these rough stones would definitely not incur losses, what was really hard for her to imagine was that every stone Bidegla bought had no waste and contained highly valuable jade.
She couldn't understand how Bidegla had such a strange ability, but he was truly a money tree.
Bidegla seemed to be shrouded in layers of mist, making her unable to see through this man no matter how hard she tried. The more she wanted to see him clearly, the more mysterious he became.
After tidying up the leftovers, Jennie Laura sat down in a chair in front of Bidegla's bed, looking very solemn.
"Jennie, what's wrong?" Bidegla also couldn't figure out what she was up to.
"It's nothing. I just need you to sign this," Jennie Laura said, taking a piece of A4 paper from her bag, on which was written "contract."
Seeing this, Bidegla really couldn't help but laugh. Could it be that she was afraid he would run away?
In fact, what Bidegla thought was right. Jennie Laura was really afraid that he would run away. Bidegla's value was too great, and with him around, Jennie Laura was confident that the pearl jewelry business would grow several times over.
Of course, signing a contract with Bidegla had another meaning, but she was embarrassed to say it.
"Okay, I'll sign." Bidegla wrote his name on the contract with a wry smile, and Jennie Laura let it go.
So, Bidegla's "indentured contract" was signed, and he didn't even bother to read what was written in the contract.
"Bidegla...," Jennie Laura called out again, hesitant.
"What's the matter?"
"Nothing, just rest well, I need to rest too," she said, getting up from the chair and putting the contract away.
Jennie Laura definitely had something she wanted to tell herself, but seeing that she was unwilling to speak, Bidegla also did not want to press her for answers, because if she wanted to speak, she would do so without him asking.
However, soon Bidegla's eyes widened, displaying an incredulous look, as he exclaimed, "Jennie, are you sleeping here?" She was lying on a nearby bed.
Originally, Bidegla thought that Jennie was going to leave, but he could not have imagined that she would actually lie down on the bed next to him.
Now, the hospital room was only occupied by Bidegla, so the empty space was available for family members to sleep in.
"Is it not allowed?" Jennie looked at Bidegla strangely and said, "I'm too tired today, don't want to go back, and I still have to continue supervising the stone cutting tomorrow. I'm going to rest first. Call me if you need anything."
After speaking, Jennie kicked off her high heels and climbed into bed. Soon after, her even breathing could be heard, indicating that she had fallen asleep.
Watching her, Bidegla couldn't help but be stunned, and at the same time, he silently thought that she was too careless. Even though he considered himself a gentleman, if it were someone else, who knows what might have happened.
But as he looked at Jennie's beautiful face, he couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth in his heart. The thought of being alone with her in the same room... led to a certain change in the way he looked at her.
Thinking this, his gaze became somewhat lecherous.
Back in college, he had often done things like peeping on girls in the shower, and Jennie's body had long been exposed to him. Although he prided himself on being a gentleman, Bidegla's eyes continued to wander over Jennie's body as if she were not wearing anything.
But soon, Bidegla averted his gaze and inwardly scolded himself for being a beast. Jennie had been tired all day and even bought dinner for him. If he really were to take advantage of her, he would be no better than an animal.
Although Bidegla had a somewhat flirtatious personality, he was not despicable. If he were to engage in a relationship with a woman, it would only be if she were willing; he would never force her.
Thinking of Jennie's kindness towards him, Bidegla's heart unexpectedly began to calm down, and even his desires subsided.
Watching her silhouette, he slowly got off the bed and gently covered Jennie with a blanket. His injuries had almost healed, and he was not used to lying in the hospital all the time. Therefore, he decided to leave with Jennie early the next morning.
Standing by the window, Bidegla looked at the dazzling night lights below, slowly sinking into a state of tranquility.
These past few days had been eventful, and even some kind of supernatural ability had emerged in him. He had already given some thought to the path ahead.
It is said that a man's ultimate goal is to hold power and to rest at the knee of a beautiful woman. Before, without any special abilities, Bidegla had never considered such a goal, as it seemed too distant for him.
But now, in just a few days, he had earned millions and met a woman as beautiful as Jennie. Thinking of her, a gentle smile appeared on Bidegla's lips, and he closed his eyes slightly.
Since fate had granted him special abilities, he would use them to achieve the ultimate goal that every man desires but cannot accomplish!
Bidegla was destined to no longer be an ordinary person!
As Bidegla smiled, in a place he couldn't see, Jennie also slowly opened her eyes, a hint of a smile on her lips, before sweetly falling back asleep.
