NOT THE USUAL CINDERELLA (Season 2)
OFFER COOPERATION
"I'm a realtor who has a lot of bosses that I have to serve, who will easily reach for their pocket if the items they want you can get. It just so happens that there's currently a pair of sisters who are interested in the painting belonging to countess Melva, daughter of earl Robin." Hearing Erich's request, Emilio took a deep breath before throwing his body on the back of the sofa behind him.
"And for sure, it's not just that. There are several works of art that both brothers want. It's just, I don't want to lose in business, one of the two or three works of art, I want you to get the "NATIVE" stuff that will make people sure, I'm sure, so that we can make a greater profit...." Erich says with you slowly towards Emilio, emphasizing the original word in pronouncing it, turning Emilio Lagnsung's eyes sharply towards Erich.
"On what basis can I trust you? If you dare to do such a thing, and you don't have a strong man behind you, it's a matter of time until the authorities catch you." Quickly Emilio cut off Erich's words.
"I know the royal family well. They owe me a lot. They'll be happy to help me when I'm in trouble." Confidently, yet relaxed, Erich said to Emilio who immediately scrunched his forehead.
"You have access to the palace?" Hearing Emilio's question, confidently, Erich immediately nodded his head as he swept his lips, as if to show that the palace was nothing foreign to him.
"Ahhh, there's no way an ordinary person can just as easily have access to the palace, don't try to trick me." Emilio again said as he moved his palms to the right and to the left, after that again took the glass that already contained whiskey back in front of him, took a sip and then peeked his two lips in a loud voice.
"I told you, I'm a realtor who has a lot of bosses, including palace people. They are my loyal customers." Erich tried to convince Emilio who was just flicking his lips.
"Prove your words with real evidence, not just nonsense words." Emilio said as he raised both of his eyebrows up and down several times with a look of disdain for Erich.
Erich was silent for a moment, not expecting that Alvero, who had asked Enzo to take a picture with Erich, had a purpose to keep watch if Emilio asked for evidence of his closeness to the courtiers. Realizing that as his master, Alvero's thought was far ahead made Erich smile with relief and pride in his heart, seeing how his master had already thought of something that had never been sharpened in his brain.
In planning and doing everything, his Excellency Alvero really prepared well and perfectly. No wonder what was planned by his Highness Alvero, it rarely failed.
Erich said inwardly while staring back at Emilio with a proud face and looking calm as well as relaxed.
Erich also showed some pictures of himself inside the palace building. The actual photos are photos of Ernest who deliberately dressed casually like Erich's makeup while disguised, at Alvero's orders and took poses in several parts of the palace building, even including inside the palace meeting building, the palace said, and sent it to Erich this afternoon. Alvero deliberately arranged like that so that this afternoon Erich could immediately get a lot of photos in a short time.
The photos were enough to make Emilio's view of Erich instantly change 180 degrees. Even unnoticed by himself, there was a look of wanting and envy that Emilio's eyes showed when looking at those photos of Erich. Emilio hoped that in the future he could become a person like Erich who had connections with people within the palace.
As Alvero had investigated, Emilio was infatuated with wealth and social status. And that was one of the reasons that made Emilio want to marry Melva to be able to bear the title of Earl.
"See? For me the palace is like my playground to me, and the princes are my playmates. Do you still doubt my words, Mr Emilio?" Erich said as he put his phone back in his pocket after showing off the photos of his closeness to Enzo and how he got in and out of the palace easily, which made Emilio instantly smile.
"Ok, then what do you want now. What art does your boss want?" Unknowingly, Emilio begins to be interested in doing business with Erich once he finds out Erich has access to one of the high-ranking men in the palace, a prince of Adalvino. And also seeing how he was a person who had access to be able to easily enter and enter the palace.
"There's some art stuff I need. In addition to the painting by countess Melva, my boss wants a diamond ring left by a hundred-year-old Austin duke. Also the historic sword belonging to knight Alexis who some time ago reportedly sold on the black market. And another gold music box made by one of the legendary craftsmen from Gracetian who died hundreds of years ago, Mr. Sam. Reportedly there are 2 twin boxes where one of them is owned by Queen Elizabeth's mother. My boss wants the other box to make his status as a rich man more recognized by the surrounding community. Mr. Emilio knows, for some people having beautiful and luxurious objects like belonging to the royal family is a pride for them. Which to me is more properly called arrogance." Erich said in a relaxed manner while looking towards Emilio who was looking at him with a doubtful and dismissive look.
"Cih. Sure your boss will be able to pay for all his orders?" Emilio instantly cut off Erich's words.
"Not only can he, even if you increase the price by two-thirds, he will be able to pay it. My boss this time is not from among the nobles. But for the matter of wealth, no doubt. Even a noble equivalent to earl Robin doesn't necessarily have as much wealth as this boss of mine." Emilio took a deep breath hearing Erich's words, hoping that what Erich said was true, so that this time he could benefit a lot from his illegal business.
After a long time he felt the luxurious life thanks to the help of Melva, it feels more and more, Emilio wants more. No longer satisfied even though the existence of Melva who helped him, has made his life much better than it used to be when he was still in another city. Even without having to cheat, by relying on the help of Melva, she was actually able to live luxuriously.
