Chapter 87
Come on, try it. At my words, he raised his teacup. I felt strange because his form was elegant while doing so.Hm, thats a little weird.Tea was an expensive item that not everyone could easily access. It was such a serious matter that the storage boxes that held the tea leaves were locked. As a simple mercenary, he probably rarely had the chance to drink tea. Nevertheless, he was drinking it so naturally. Seeing that, I couldnt help but feel suspicious.What if hes actually the young master of a noble family who ran away from home?I was becoming a little skeptical of his true identity when he put down the cup.
I dont know why people drink this, he coldly said. I almost clicked my tongue in annoyance. In my opinion, the tea was relatively well-brewed, and it was the finest we had, but he was grumbling about it.
Right, theres no way a nobleman wouldnt understand the taste of tea.
At that moment, his voice interrupted my thoughts. Here, take a look.
While looking through his terms, I frowned.This guy he really wrote down whatever he wanted.Written in his terrible handwriting, the terms were as follows:
I was astounded by the things he wrote down. It looked like something a grumpy, self-centered boss would write.Whenever I ask about him, hes always telling me that its none of my business. However, based on what hes written here, it seems like he wants to know everything about my private life.I lamented for a moment, then opened my mouth to express my opinion. Hey, do you happen to
Add one more thing: Jubelian should call Max by his name. I had only learned his name today so there was no way I was already familiar with it. Even so, when I thought of it, I seemed to be calling him by his name every time. I didnt expect to be criticized for a mistake I made once.
Then will youI mean, Maxcall me by my name from now on as well?
He paused, then nodded gently. Okay.
I glanced at him then started to write a revised version of his terms.Its so terrible that I dont know where to start.I scratched out some of his writings and wrote down the revisions on a new piece of paper.
The above terms and conditions specify that the contract may be terminated by mutual consent and may be subject to change depending on the circumstances.
The contract will be completed once Jubelian feels safe from the crown prince.
Employer: Jubelian Eloy Floyen
Employee: Max
After finishing the revisions, I pushed the paper towards him. Here. Read this and tell me if any changes need to be made.
He snatched the paper from me and squinted his eyes. What is this?
Its the changes I made to the original. Read it over carefully and tell me if you dont like
I cant accept this, he said as he tore up the contract.
I took a deep breath.Did he just tear up what I wrote?If he didnt like it, he could have just told me. Seeing how he tore it up, I could now tell that he was definitely not a normal person.Yes, now that I think about it, he has always been like that.Even when I took care of him for a few days, he left without notice and without answering me. He also seemed to be frequently irritated. No matter how much I advocated a free lifestyle, I at least knew how to respect others. It was called social skills. It was for this reason that I had been considerate to him so he wouldnt feel uncomfortable around me. However, this man had lacked regard for me from the very beginning until now.
Well have to see each other more often from now onI had overlooked his rude behavior in the past because I knew we werent going to encounter each other very often. But since we were now in a contractual relationship, we were going to meet more frequently. If we were already hitting a rough patch, then the next step was obvious.
