“W—What are you talking about? I never kicked out my own flesh and blood! Why are you suddenly blaming me?!” Genoven exclaimed, his face flushing red. Yet, just as he was about to argue with Luca, the old man recalled that he had indeed cast Luca out in the past.The old man quickly tried to shift the blame back onto the brown haired man.“If you’re accusing me of kicking my own flesh and blood off the throne, know that the fault lay with them first. All I did was try to safeguard the throne. I couldn't let troublemakers remain inside until they realized the error of their ways.”“Besides, instead of wasting time arguing with me, why don't you try resolving the Lagos clan's problem? I’ll overlook this issue because I appreciate that you avoided malpractice. But next time, I want everything 100% ready. I’ll offer an apology and an explanation to the Lagos clan, but you’d better get to work now as we don’t have much time,” Genoven said firmly before leaving the room.The robot girl jump

Riiip!Luca pulled back the blanket covering the artificial girl's body and saw that she remained completely lifeless.The brown haired man briefly considered abandoning his idealism and installing the chip he had just created despite the risk of triggering a system reboot but after a moment's thought, he decided against it.Luca crushed the chip in his hand and tossed it into the trash. He lay down on the bed, hoping tomorrow would be better and that he might find a clue or anything at all to fix the chaotic situation.The next day, Luca stopped by the hotel to pick up the robot girl before heading to the factory.She looked much better. The pallor had left her face, and she appeared as though she had just enjoyed a hearty hotel buffet."So, how are you? Do you feel okay? You aren't traumatized by what happened yesterday, are you?" Luca asked and the robot girl shook her head."No, I'm doing much better now," she replied. "I'm ready. Let's go to the factory. I'm ready to get to work,

The girl suddenly vomited, and Luca saw her retch up a large amount of thick, dark blood. She looked wretched, with festering sores on her abdomen, yet, just as Luca moved to help, she held up a hand to stop him.She stared at Luca in terror, while the robot girl looked at him inquiringly as the blonde girl clutched her arm tightly."M... Master, what should I do? Should I..." the robot girl stammered."Go help her, and do whatever you can to make her comfortable," Luca said, standing up. "Gaining her trust is your job too and it’s crucial, because that’s the only way she’ll open up."The robot girl nodded and immediately moved to assist the blonde girl, holding back her hair as if tying it into a ponytail. Luca realized that in this situation, he had to try trusting the robot girl as he couldn't simply cast her aside for the moment.The blonde girl eventually calmed down enough to lie back on her cell's bed, which was nothing more than a single blanket.The robot girl cleaned up the

“What happened to her?” Luca frowned, completely in the dark about the situation. The brown haired man only knew that the foreign girl hadn’t shown up for work and that everyone was talking about it.Simon’s eyes widened as he stared at Luca in disbelief.“You really don’t know? Salami said her leg would’ve been blown off by an explosive if she tried to flee the country! But luckily, the guards caught her just in time. If she’d made it to the departure zone, her leg would’ve been destroyed, and she’d have spent the rest of her life with only one leg!” Simon explained.“But what money was she going to use to escape? I mean, if she was planning to run away, doesn't that imply she had a lot of savings?” Luca asked. “Besides, where else would she go but Alaska? The cost of living there is incredibly high, not to mention it’s the destination for fugitive presidents.”“I don’t know about that, Luca. I just heard it from the folks at the factory. All I know is she has to keep working and sho

“W–What?! But that’s insane! There’s no way I’m handing this company over to you! I asked for help, but now you’re trying to kick me off my own throne?!”“There is no other way to save this company and your family without sacrifice, Ser Teslo, that is the reality,” said Damon. He placed his hand on the Teslo heir’s shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze. “Just think of your people. The small family you still have left. If you aren’t the one to save them, then who will be? The decision is entirely in your hands, but if you choose this path, know that I will do whatever it takes to secure this company and make it successful again.”Jace Teslo’s eyes reddened as he fought back tears. Luca tried not to look away. He needed to appear trustworthy as the Kane family’s representative, and the brown haired man realized something.If the heir chose to sign the document, it would be because he was still thinking of his family and his son and finally, Jace picked up the pen.“If I step down from t

“So, what’s the verdict? Oh, right, I looked up the address for that scientist you asked about, and—”“Yes, thanks. Just have it sent automatically to my phone. I’ll read it later,” Luca said. “And one more thing: stop calling me ‘Sir.’ It’ll raise questions among people who don’t know the situation. Just call me by my name, Luca. It’s more appropriate.”“Okay, Mas... I mean, Luca,” the robot girl corrected herself.“Good,” Luca nodded. “I didn’t get much out of Frank Aerius since he was unconscious during the incident. All he knows is that he woke up and a system screen ordered him to carry out the task. Still, we have a lead on the scientist you’re looking into. I suspect she’s involved in something shady and her projects are bizarre and I want you to investigate her for me.”“What kind of projects?”“If I recall correctly, it involves illicit drugs,” Luca said briefly. “But I’m not certain, as Frank seems to keep it under tight wraps and your job is to find out exactly what she’s d
