Amethyst was looking at Eduard in confusion.
They are in Scarlet's room while she was sleeping.
"I think what I said was straightforward enough though, for you to look like that," Eduard chuckled.
"No… I mean… A contract?" Amethyst was looking more and more confused.
"Yes, I want to offer you a contract for our company, as an author," Eduard replied using his business voice.
"Wait, isn't this a bit too sudden?" she asked again.
"Maybe but since you will be inheriting her legacy, I think I am just taking some insurance?" Eduard replied.
Amethyst raised an eyebrow at him.
He smiled with uncertainty, "Well, basically I am also giving you some security."
"Security about what?" she asked.
"I saw you this morning together with Slate, that man pestering you," Eduard then said.
Her lips parted about the realization of the real reason why Eduard suddenly offered her a contract.
"Slate told you?" she asked.
