Chapter 30 The Epilogue Of The London Incident

That girl sounded like Nene. It was probably a coincidence. It's not like I miss her, but she was oddly convenient in what she did.

Two days have passed since the incident in London, and I have been staying in my room for the last two days.

Reina and I haven't talked much, but she was spending time with her brother. If I hadn't known her for these last few days, I would've thought she had a brother complex.

The reporters that wanted to talk to me were annoying. This was the only place where I could be at peace. I wanted to return to the academy, but it would not be nice, and the rewards I wanted would be gone.

Some of my powers were leaked from the reward distribution. But it is not like they know what it is ultimately.

Today was when the ceremony for the upcoming head would be rescheduled. Looking out the window, I heard the door to my room had opened.

"Charles!"

"Reina."

The one who opened the door to my door was Reina. Reina had entirely changed since the death and revival of his brother.

Looking at me, she was smiling too brightly. Even though she had changed, there was still something inside of her that would never change. She is plotting something again.

Getting on top of me, Reina started to kiss me. This time she was vigorous compared to the last time.

This is hot. Unlike the emotionless Reina, this one was more expressive. She is much sexier in this state.

"That was a greeting. You're still as unpredictable as ever."

"Shouldn't I reward my finance?"

"When did I become your finance? I never agreed."

"It's the reward you'll receive."

"I don't see how that's my reward."

It would seem like a pain. I would get led by the nose whenever I agreed to her request.

"Don't you like the money? Marry me would give you twenty percent of the assets made from our family."

"And that twenty percent is a lot. I'm also someone who doesn't spend a lot, so you'll receive most of the cash anyways."

What Reina said wasn't wrong. The opportunity was too hard to give up on. Not only would I get money, but also her.

There are downsides to this, but the upside is much better. I find her troublesome, but I don't hate her. She also has no bad intentions, so agreeing doesn't seem too bad.

"Reina, let's get married!"

I held her hand tightly, and she held mine back. A money sign was in my eyes, looking at her. And she couldn't help but blush at my proposal.

"Oh my, Sweetie, I didn't think your lover would propose this early."

Jennifer had arrived at the right time. Her eyes shined brightly, seeing what had transpired. And from what I could tell, Jennifer was not opposed to it.

"Sweetie, follow me. Let's make a plan for your wedding. I have some great ideas in mind."

Reina's mother took her away, leaving me behind. So when do I go to the party? I want to chase them, but I don't think I should bother them.

I wasn't so keen on going to the ceremony. Going to the ceremony would be too tiring. With the stunt I did two days ago, people would crowd me.

The only thing I could do was congratulate Tristan. I had a few conversations with him after he had recovered. He was similar to Matthew in some ways, but I see that he sees me positively.

Reina, who had forgotten about me, returned and pulled me to the party. As I had predicted, everyone around me tried their best to entertain me.

Today is Tristan's day, and his spotlight was getting stolen. I hope this doesn't lower his positivity toward me.

Some people were looking to recruit me for their company, but I declined. I had already signed a contract with Linsey, and it would be impossible for me to do so.

With the party's final event, Tristan's speech began. Standing tall on the podium, his aura had been imposing on everyone. Looking sharp for being the next heir, this was something he had to do.

"From today onward! I, Tristan Burgess, will become the next head!"

"Like every upcoming head, I hope to succeed and surpass the previous head."

"What you'll be expecting is changes made to the company. Previous contracts that don't benefit the company will now be null."

"The rules of the families serving the Burgess family will now be stricter. And some of the families will be removed."

"Guards! Get rid of them now!"

Some of the attendees were killed by the guard. About eight people died from Tristan's command. Screams could be heard, but Tristan immediately silenced everyone.

"The people I killed are traitors to the family. Not only did they sell some information about the family, but others took some of the funds without permission."

I didn't think Tristan could be that bold to kill in public. But with the proof there, no one could blame him.

He is showing that he would be ruthless to his enemies.

"There will be more changes, but that is all for now."

His speech was finished, and the ceremony had ended. There was an after-party, but I didn't want to attend it.

"Charles."

Tristan had come to my room, and he seemed tired by the looks of it. From what he did today, he had to talk to hundreds of people. No one should do that much.

"I thought you would attend your after-party."

"Sorry, but I also have my limit. And you're leaving first thing tonight. I have a few things to say to you before you leave."

"I still haven't thanked you properly for reviving me. Without that, I wouldn't have untied the loose end with my sister."

"I also want to thank you for accompanying my sister and making her happy. She had suffered a lot, and it helped to know someone was out there looking out for her."

"That's why I thank you."

This is the first time someone sincerely thanked me. I didn't know how to feel, but I can't say it wasn't good.

"Here is the fee for the revival item. There are fifty billion dollars. All the information will be on the card. Later."

Tristan left just like that. But fifty billion on my hand just like that. What a good day.
