Chapter 74 - C74 Bonds Of Power

The two beautiful women in the front bowed to Hope and Me in synchrony.

They wore elegant traditional dresses with depictions of dragons that clung tightly to their hourglass shaped petite bodies compared to ours with their hair tied in a ponytail, along with their flawless skin and delicate face.

Even the greeters were a bombshell level beauties which further emphasized the luxury of this real estate company.

Only to freeze for a second as they took In our looks, we both were giants with Hope having some western features and me clearly a caucasian male.

And the scars barely visible on Hope's flawless jade like skin and my own which In some places were layers on top of each other.

Didn't help at all, yet after a second of pause they returned to their usual demeanor.

If It was any other unaugmented baseline human then he wouldn't have noticed the brief display of shock and confusion on their face but I wasn't one was I now?

There were also our clothes for one although Hope's clothes were all top shelf brands she still looked like a delinquent and as for me well there was no need to say anything about It.

Although they thought that we couldn't possibly afford anything In here they still decided to follow the rules of the company and be on their best behavior.

The company rules stated clearly that no judgment should be made based on impressions.

Violators will be fired even if it was a manager who broke the rule.

This was to avoid accidentally disrespecting wealthy people who had a kink for dressing in regular clothes.

There were plenty of people who liked to act low profile.

"By the g*d's what did those two eat while growing up?"

One of the girls whispered to her colleague.

"I knew foreigners and mixed races were bigger but that's way too much It almost feels like they stepped out from some kind of a fantasy novel"

Another whispered back only for the other to giggle as she looked at her colleague with a knowing look.

"You know despite his scars that foregein Is a f*cking hottie I don't think I have ever seen a more good looking guy same goes for the woman, maybe they're some kind of ancient noble family like In all those TV shows?"

The girl's whispers didn't escape my and Hopes augmented senses.

"Heard that miss steroids you look like a model"

I whispered Into Hope's ear causing It to twitch only for her to stomp onto my armored boot In anger.

"Shut It, If anyone deserves a steroids nickname It's you"

Hope barked back causing me to roll my eyes.

Woman...

I thought In my mind as we walked into the grand hall in full, confident strides.

Marble pillars with stone floors, the giant crystal chandeliers that drew the attention of every visitor like a bright diamond.

The elegant design of the grand hall filled us with expectations for the mansion we were going to buy.

If they could design the real estate office with such radiance, then the houses they sell must be comparable at least.

I thought only to see Hope freeze In place after seeing the receptionist.

"Hello, mam, what type and what unit would you… It's you?!"

The handsome receptionist behind the table courteously explained to Hope, but when he saw her face, his eyes popped wide open with his jaw almost hitting the floor.

"I guess It's a small world after all..."

Hope forced a wry smile.

The died blonde curls, the perfect proportion nose, and chiseled jaw along with eyes full of cunningness behind a round framed glasses. The student vibe made the male receptionist even more attractive, though he certainly was pretending to be younger than his actual age.

As I looked between Hope and the man my lips curled Into an evil grin.

You're ex boyfriend?

I asked Hope In my mind as I did my AI transmitted my thoughts Into Hope's HUD view In the form of an artificially generated audio log.

I could clearly see Hope's face contort Into a disgusted one upon hearing my thoughts.

Oh boy, this Is going to be good...

So what's the story between you two?

Do you want the long one or the short one?

Short one.

Basically, when I started high school, up to that point I never had a boyfriend, or more accurately, never successfully chased after one.

It's not that I looked bad as you can tell, but the fact was that I was a delinquent coupled with my grandfather being an overprotective father.

No one dared to approach me and even would run away when I was the one to Initiate It, yet he was the only one who approached me on his own.

Let me guess you fell In love and he broke your heart.

I Interrupted Hope's monologue as I snacked on Imaginable popcorn.

Do you want to hear the rest of It or not?

Hope barked angrily In my mind.

Yeah, yeah please continue.

Basically, I was young and dumb despite my grandfather's warning I fell hell over heels for him.

And that was the biggest mistake of my life and reality made sure to rub that Into my face.

Long story short after he got bored of fooling me he made sure that everyone would know that our whole relationship was just a bet between him and his friends which he successfully won.

And what did you do to him after that?

I kicked him In the balls so hard that he had to spend half a year In a hospital.

Hearing this I couldn't help but subconsciously place my right hand over my jewels, yet at the same time I couldn't help but grin.

That's my girl I thought In my mind.

"Did you get a height surgery or what and why would you come here last time I checked you were a penniless college dropout "

The man first said venemously then looked around nervously as he lowered his voice and said in a begging tone.

"Please, don't come and bother me anymore, you and I won't happen."

For a second Hope's brain froze, did he really think she still had any feelings for him was he high on d*ugs or did his head get kicked by a donkey when he was a baby, she couldn't help but look between Dracula and the man whose name she had forgotten long ago.

One was of a somewhat feminine type whose only redeeming quality was his face and the other one was a g*damn killing machine born and bred for war who wouldn't hesitate to rip out his eye for her just so he could keep watch on her.

"I think you are mistaken."

Hope said while clicking her tongue as she looked at the receptionist In a neutral tone.

Although he had hurt her In the past, she felt It was beneath her to seek further revenge after all she kicked his family jewels so hard that he almost became Infertile.

What happened In the past was all buried in dust.

"How did you find out where I worked?"

He gritted his teeth as he locked his eyes on Hope.

"Leave, I don't want to see you ever again"

Hope was completely dumbfounded.

What the f*ck? Was he really hit by a donkey?

Should I smash his face In for you?

I asked In my mind with a mischievous grin plastered on my face.

Nah, let's just go to another place my mood Is ruined.

Hope said as she turned around and started walking back, seeing this I couldn't help but click my tongue because the drama was over.

Seeing Hope leave in "embarrassment", the receptionist let out a curse he was holding.
