The Rhyme of the Depositary

039 - SEASON 2

Alice looked at Klayver with incomprehension. What Klayver had said was far beyond Alice's expectations. He counts one to ten in his heart, hoping that what he hears is a form of error and will be realized as soon as possible.

However, even until Alice counted to twenty, Klayver still stared at her sharply.

"That's my requirement" Klayver said lightly.

Alice was wide. Oh, his hearing still works fine. Klayver wants a kid? A child who can breathe and move?

"You want me to give you .. child? Child in a literal sense? The real child?"

Klayver caught the confusion in Alice's bead. He gave a small nod, understanding the shock his wife was causing.

Klayver had thought about all this. He weighed in from all angles and concluded that he would be better off making a deal with Alice.

"Alice, I'm someone from a dark background. Having a side that is not always accepted by others. How many percent of the people in the world are able to accept a hit man like me?"

Coupled with Klayver's family history of dominance and power. It's easy to intimidate others. It is difficult to find a sincere woman to be in a relationship with.

Klayver has tired of superficial women. Most of them approach him, just because they see his physical, money, or strength. None of them dared to understand the ins and outs of him completely and stood with all the worst possible odds.

A small example is Holy. After Klayver gave up all of her beliefs and emotions and left her alone, she still chose to leave, refusing to live with a man with a dark background.

A good woman will stay away from him, feeling as if he is a veiled danger. The lady jal*ng will stick to her, like a sage sipping all the sweet juice Klayver has. Both types of women long made Klayver feel fed up.

Alice is an exception. She's not the kind of woman jal*ng who does penjalangk*ngan. The woman is quite principled, stubborn, and moral.

Alice is also a strong enough woman to share all her dark sides. He had seen for himself how Alice's power came out when he was suppressed by Violin.

At that time, Klayver intended to stop Violin. She hated her mother doing all of that in her own presence. He had just re-entered the living room after talking about business with Wilsen. Unexpectedly there his mother had pointed a gun a second time to Alice.

Angrier. That's what Klayver felt. But as he tried to stop, Wilsen held him back. Her brother could sense that Violin would not go that far. Wilsen's eye gesture revealed that everything would be fine.

At that time Klayver had to bet with the instinct that his brother had. Wilsen was the one who knew Violin the most. So when Angelica and John tried to hold Violin back, Klayver chose to be an observer. The only thing he believed in was Wilsen's instincts. Usually her brother never failed to guess the situation as far as their mother was concerned.

In addition, Klayver believes if he stops Violin, he cannot guarantee his mother will not do the same in the future. The only way is to give Violin a chance to do what she wants and complete her mother's curiosity.

Unexpectedly, he actually pressed Alice in such a way. More unexpectedly, Alice refused to submit to the pressure and chose to stand alone, opposing the Violin with all her confidence. He paid no heed to his own safety or his fate that began to be cornered.

Honestly, seeing how strongly Alice endured the pressure brought out a certain admiration in Klayver's heart.

Klayver never found a woman who was ready to defend him at all costs. He is the one who is used to defending all his possessions from others. Realizing this fact, Klayver was gripped by a new sense of possessiveness.

Although if you want to realize further, Alice did all that because of their initial agreement to each other's agreement.

Damn indeed. That agreement was what had underpinned Alice's actions. Alice's grudge against Anson's killer is higher than her own. A woman who is stupid enough, but worthy of admiration.

With that in mind, Klayver thinks Alice is fit to be the mother of her child.

Klayver's age is about to enter thirty. He needed an heir and wanted a son. If Alice could give him a child, Klayver was confident they would have a reasonably negotiable life.

"Can you explain what you mean?" Alice was trying to understand Klayver's words.

"I want a son. It's that simple," he said lightly.

"I mean why all of a sudden? And why should I?" tanyanya did not understand.

Klayver stood up from the end of the bed, staring out of the room through the window. He observed the green scenery that was in the lower courtyard. Seeing all this, made his heart a little comfortable. Violin is always smart to organize the house and design every room there is. Includes outdoor design.

"Anyway, I need an heir. I'm not sure there's a woman logical enough to have a marriage and have children just for a moment with me. Usually women are always a hassle. He can complicate my position and demand things beyond their capacity. It would be best if I were to talk about this topic with you." Klayver explained at length.

Alice who heard Kalyver's explanation could only bitterly smile. For once again, Klayver tried to take advantage of him. His heart was slightly slashed.

"So, you think that I'm a pretty perfect candidate?" alice asked, hiding her dislike.

Klayver nodded without looking at him at all.

"We are two people who understand each other. There is no falsehood so that our relationship is more honest than any other relationship I could possibly do to any woman. And if it's time we part ways, I promise I'll arrange a fair visit for both of us."

Those words are like sharp daggers. Klayver had even anticipated their breakup, while Alice foolishly wished for the permanence of their bond. All these opposites made a part of his heart painfully scratched.

For Klayver, their marriage was still an agreement that led to divorce. All things contain only simple points. It was as if there was no heart that would be scattered in vain.

Emotions are something Klayver never had. His life is like a compass, always doing things in the direction and never deviated even once from the plan.

"So you're going to make my relationship with the child like a superficial relationship of part-time parents visiting their children?" alice's protest was unacceptable. She imagined getting pregnant, giving birth, breastfeeding, and being left behind. So hurtful.

Klayver seemed to have conceptualized this thing quite maturely. He talked about the child's arrangement as if Alice was ready for the proposal he gave.

"You want a son, don't you? What if I give birth to a daughter?" challenge Alice. His eyes began to darken. He began to assess the situation. Is Klayver objective enough to accept all these possibilities?

Klayver was silent for a long time. He's back to weighing. Honestly, he was expecting a son. He needed a successor to be formed according to his will. But if God only gave her a daughter, he wouldn't mind either. Every human being has different potential. If Klayver was smart enough to educate her, whether male or female, they would grow tremendously.

"We tried twice. If you keep giving birth to a daughter, I don't mind taking it. But if one of them was a son, it would be better for me."

"So if I could give birth to a baby boy right away, you wouldn't be demanding that I give a second child, would you?" alice began to wonder.

The corners of Klayver's lips curved up, forming a smile of satisfaction.

"No. Even if you want to give me an extra child, I don't mind taking it." Imagining this, inevitably makes Klayver smile more widely.

"I'm not sure you're gonna be a good father. Given all this time your interactions with Axel have been very bad."

Alice remembered this. Axel and Klayver had an invisible distance that was difficult for them to penetrate. They automatically avoid each other and will only be together if the situation is forced.

If such an interaction would occur between Klayver and her child later, Alice was not sure her son could grow up normally. The psychic burden his son was facing must have been very heavy.

"Alice, I don't interact easily with children. Life never taught me that. But more than anything, I have a great interest in Axel. Whether you want to admit it or not. If anything happens to him, even if it's when we no longer have any ties, I'll stand by his side and be willing to kill people for your son." Klayver took a breath, resumed.

"My personality is very introverted. Not everything I feel I show you, Alice."

What Klayver is telling us is the truth. Although when viewed from the surface he does not have attention to Axel, but far beyond all that he is a sharp observer. He looks at the child, learns his habits, knows what he likes and hates, and memorizes all his emotions.

Klayver has memorized all the out of his head about Alice's son. The boy likes grilled sausage with mayonaise sauce, peanut butter fresh bread with extra chocolate, porridge with chicken and pea broth, as well as soft wheat bread made by Susan.

In fact, Klayver knew Axel's habits. His lips will shrivel with narrowed eyes when angry and his eyes sparkle with a special basin in the corner of the lips when happy.

All that Klayver had memorized was out of his head. It's just that, because of the personality that has been formed on him, he is not used to express all attention in the form of attitude directly.

"When it's time for me to have a child, I'll have enough attention to take care of it."

Klayver turned to Alice, wanting answers and honesty from her.

Since Holy's death, all Klayver's life goals have begun to feel empty. Work is what he pursues desperately. That's why he is famous as the most skilled and accomplished killer. Because he has often trained himself to go through all the limits he can bear.

However, the longer the direction of his life demanded clarity. There was no way he would experience this kind of emptiness continuously. He needs someone who can accept and respond sincerely. A person who will not stop loving despite seeing all his defects.

Once, Klayver wished it was Alice. But consciousness came back to him. As a good woman, Alice is impossible to accept.

Klayver is a dark side whose existence is a threat to everyone. It would be too grandiose if he made a dream together with a good woman. In the end, he would only drag Alice towards destruction.

It was this thought that made Klayver want a child. A child will still accept his or her parents, no matter how bad they are. As long as the old man is big enough to give him affection.

He wants a child. Very very. More than anything else. Especially after seeing Axel, he often imagined his position as a father.

"What if I refuse, Klayver?" challenge Alice bravely. Alice's mind began to rage erratically. He wanted to find out what steps Klayver would take if he rejected this proposal.

"There are two stages I would do if you refused. First, I'm gonna hunt down Daniel and kill him. Second, I'll hire another woman at a price enough to give birth to my son."

Although Klayver still had no idea of another woman he could rent her womb, but if Alice refused, she would not mind doing the option. However, his ambition to have children is already very big for him to bear.

Alice remained silent for a long time. Honestly, imagining another woman containing Klayver flesh blood made her heart heat up. He hates that assumption.

However, conceiving a Klayver child with the possibility of divorce at any time is also not a good thing. Alice was faced with a difficult choice.

In addition, Daniel was also dragged into this problem. All decisions affect many parties.

"If I agree to your request, will you still kill Anson's enemies? We've been quiet long enough to do nothing." Alice reminded.

"I'll take care of the matter as soon as we get home. So does that mean you agree with my plan?" Clayver asked to make sure.

Alice swallowed and closed her eyes for a moment. It seemed, he was indeed going to take this option. Imagining Klayver touching another woman is truly unbearable.

"alright. Do we need to do the baby tube process or something?" Alice asked softly. His face began to blush.

Klayver smiled triumphantly and answered steadily. "I love traditional art, Alice. I want the process to be natural. We can start doing it tonight."
