Chapter 36 The Owner
?Gale walked up the stairs, and in the middle of it, he disguised himself as Lenny.
He was about to go back but stopped. He came outside of the restaurant and went into an alleyway.
Suddenly, a shadow followed behind him and came into the alleyway too. But when the shadow entered, he found no one.
The shadow was a spy who was told to keep an eye on Niloy. He had noticed that Niloy had no friends and was always alone, but today he noticed someone approaching him and talking to him. At first, he thought it might be a random drunkard; however, the way they talked, it looked like they were close.
So, he shifted his focus to Gale and when he saw Gale coming back and going into an alleyway, he felt it was bait. But he had to bite it or he might miss him.
The spy was about to turn around when all of a sudden.
Puchi
His neck was cut open by someone from behind. The spy wasn't able to scream and died in seconds.
It was none other than Lenny. He spread his senses and found that no one saw this.
'Now, time to get a nonexistent victim.' Lenny walked out of the alleyway.
As he walked out, a scream came from the alley. The scream attracted everyone's attention on the streets.
They all looked at the alley and saw an average-looking boy running at them with tears and fear in his face.
"The Ragingwave Clan killed the Burnheart Family's people again! I am dead! They will kill me!" The man quickly ran away like the wind; it seemed like he was escaping to save his life.
The pedestrians all looked into the alleyway and indeed saw a headless corpse of a man. The man's head was on the side, and it matched the characteristics of the Burnheart Family. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
While a scene was made there, Lenny entered the restaurant again and went to the washroom to wash his hands.
Lenny, with his calm and cold face, walked back towards his private room.
After opening the door of the room, he saw many types of dishes placed on the table. What caught Lenny's attention most was an unknown woman who was talking to Kaley.
The woman was wearing a dark green gown, which revealed her busty breasts and ass. She had short, shoulder-length blonde hair. She was a bit petite, but that didn't diminish her beauty. She had an authoritarian aura around her.
Kaley jumped up after seeing Lenny was back. She took hold of his arm and asked coyly. "What took you so long?"
"Nothing," Lenny said as he walked toward the table. "I just met an old friend. So we had a brief conversation. Also cleaned off a bit of dirt that was on the hand."
"Oh, next time, introduce your friend to me," Kaley said it eagerly.
"We will see." After saying that, Lenny shifted his focus on the blonde-haired woman who was giving him curious looks with a smirk on her face. "May I know who you are?"
"My, my," The woman's lips curled up. "You called me here and you are telling me who I am?"
Lenny raised his eyebrows."So, you are the owner of this restaurant."
He didn't expect the owner of this restaurant to be so young. Then he pondered. 'What am I even saying? Age is meaningless in the cultivation world.'
"Yes, I am the owner of this restaurant. My name is Fiona Ragingwave, the wife of the head elder." Fiona looked at him with a teasing smile. "And who might you be?"
The veins on Lenny's forehead twitched a bit. 'This woman…'
However, Lenny tried his hardest to not show any emotion, he said."I am Lenny Minar, the fiance of Kaley."
"So, you are the lucky guy. You look quite handsome up close." Fiona started flirting with him.
'This woman feels horny.' Lenny used Inspection to get a quick check on her.
[ Fiona Ragingwave (Ninth Stage Foundation Establishment Realm) - She is an outsider who came here to escape her past and live a normal life. But it was hard at first to start a business. So, he seduced the head elder when he was young and married him. She used his influence to grow bigger. But recently, the head elder is desperate for power and is spending little to no time with her. He used the maids and his high-quality servant to relieve himself. She is currently desperate for a man to take her. ]
'As I guessed it, she is horny, and…this…this is making my plan go easier.' Lenny was ecstatic after reading her status.
Fiona looked into his eyes and asked. "May I know why you would call me here? I have a lot of work to do and other guests to see. I can't waste my valuable time here."
'Work my ass, you want to find a man to take you down.' Lenny cursed in his mind, but outside he answered simply. "I want to do business with you."
"Oh, why would a genius like you want to do business? The whole world is waiting for your arrival." Fiona immediately became skeptical of him.
"Because I don't want to rely on someone else's money all the time. Also, I am missing a certain thing from my homeland, and it is related to that." Lenny said with a slight reminiscence in his voice.
"Oh, is that so?" Fiona's curiosity was piqued. "What is this thing you are missing?"
"It is called Spa," Lenny answered.
However, his answer only increased Fiona's curiosity, even Kaley and Jasmine were interested to hear about it.
"Can you explain it to me?" Fiona asked eagerly. Kaley and Jasmine perked their ears up too.
Lenny slowly explained it to them. However, their interest died down the more they heard Lenny's explanation.
Fiona summed it up and said."So, you are saying to make a place where people will bathe in hot water and get a massage from a girl or boy?"
Lenny shrugged his shoulders."Yes, that's it."
