"just 50k ? she sold herself for 50k? even my car is more expensive then her"

Alaric though as he look at Ariea who was walking in front of him. Ariea stopped walking and look at Alaric, who also look at her confusedly.

Ariea sigh

"so how are we going home?"

Alaric made a confused sound

"huh?"

Ariea look at Alaric

"your home, where is it? look i know it sudden but don't worry, i will just stay 6 months in your house and then i will leave. you don't have to give even a penny for me ok?"

Alaric try to process word, his home? she will be staying in his home?. so did she choose because she though he is easy target? so she can get his money and house but could richer target will be more good?

Alaric mind blurred with thousand question. there too many emotion on his mind. anger, disgust, confusion, curiosity too much. he rubbed his head and said

"give me two minutes"

saying that he left, Ariea let him take his time, after all anyone could be overwimed. if it was her, she probably has screamed, curing her fate and already kicking that man out. she was grateful that this man is at least kind and letting her stay. while on other hand Alaric went little far and called mak

"arrange me poorest house in 15 minutes. it should be in bad state and no one wanted to live their and send me address"

Alaric hang up the phone while Mak stare at the phone as that phone might bite him. he don't understand situation but if his boss said anything, he need to do that.

Mak sighed and though "i really should talk about his rise"

after 15 minute, Mak send him address. he then went toward Ariea who sign in relief and said

"i thought you abundant me"

Alaric look at Ariea, her eye were almost teary like she was about to cry. Alaric feel something wired seeing that but he ignore it and said

"we will grab taxi to my house"

Ariea nodded as they fetch a taxi. as the car was moving Ariea asked

"do you stay alone in house?"

Alaric doesn't even know what house Mak has arranged yet he spoke

"yes"

Ariea again asked

"what about your family?"

Alaric look at Aeria and answered

"they live in village"

Ariea again nodded and just seat quietly. Alaric look at Ariea waiting for more question but non come.

as the car stopped Alaric look at phone that has location and then at house. it was really small house. mak has messaged him that key is under the rose pot. Alaric spotted the rose put and indeed there was a key. with key he open a house. Ariea also followed behind looking at house.

she commented

"you have quite beautiful and clean house"

Alaric was shocked. this is house? there were only three room. first was hall and it that was a small kitchen, a bedroom and bathroom. that it? where separate room? where kitchen? where the where is office room and why the hell the bathroom is so small and on top of that that girl found it beautiful.

Alaric look at Ariea shocked, who also look at him and then as remembering something she asked

"what your name?"

Alaric realize they dont know each other name, he said

"Alaric"

Ariea nodded and said

"i am Ariea"

she then took one small round of small house and said

"where your cloth?"

Alaric look confused , Ariea spoke

"i dont have any cloth with me, i will wear your for now. i need shower"

Alaric was not sure if Mok has arranged that, he slowly went inside small bedroom and open cupboard. there indeed some t shirt, shirt and pant. he casually pick a t shirt and a track pant and give to Ariea. she took that quite happily and went to bathroom but then she opened the door again and said

"ohh and about sleeping i will sleep on bed for 3 day and you can sleep on bed 4 day since it your house and also do you have anything to eat? i am hungry"

Alaric stood there Dumbfolded and said

"i will see"

saying that he come into hall, there were no fridge but there some grocery stored in cabinet and there also some ramen. well mak has done quite well job, preparing grocery and even cloth. it really look like someone live here for decade. he was about to make noodle when he realise

"wait? it his house!! why it feel like it her house? why she ordering me? and why i am sleeping on bed only for 4 days?

Alaric look at bathroom door, froze for minutes and then yelled

"IT. My .HOUSE"
