Trapped Married By Young Master - Chapter 42
Mr. John raised an eyebrow when he found the door to the room behind the wall open.
At first, Mr. John thought the threat about the bed was just a bluff by Evan to make Luci continue the agreement. But when he saw that his master, Evan, had taken off the clothes he was wearing, Mr. John was a little surprised.
Because all this time, Evan didn’t like exposing his body parts in front of women again, especially after what happened ten years ago. And now suddenly Evan could change instantly just because of Luci.
‘Is he so desperate about this matchmaking, that he is willing to break what he’s cursed all this time?’ thought Mr. John in his heart.
“John, this deal is still going on. Prepare the binding documents!” Evan shouted while still in the room.
“Very well, sir,” said Mr. John, a sign that he had complied with his master’s orders.
The walls in the room closed again, an indication that Evan didn’t want to have anything to do with Luci today. Very strange, even though usually Evan always wanted to monitor every agreement that Evan would make with other people.
That’s because Evan couldn’t trust other people at all, even Mr. John, who had worked for the Hudan Group company for twenty-five years. In the past, for Evan, everyone would only disappoint him if he didn’t keep his eye on them. But suddenly Evan changed again today.
Meanwhile still standing, Luci trembled in fear. She could still feel Evan’s lips pressed against hers earlier in the room. Luci also could still feel the sting of Evan’s bite on her plump lips. Sweat dripped down her forehead.
Luci also looked pale, not much different from Mr. John at this time. The difference was that Mr. John had a pale face because that’s how he was. Besides, Mr. John’s paleness was now accompanied by curiosity in his brain. Meanwhile, Luci had a pale face because of the terrible fear she had.
Luci’s eyes that normally glowed with life and clarity were now dying and almost extinguished. The clarity on her face was mixed with the gray stain that Luci got after Evan’s dominance invaded her body while in the room earlier.
Her red and luscious lips also began to dry, as if she had been in a desert cursed by God so that it was not allowed to have a single drop of water on its plains.
“Come here, Miss!” invited Mr. John to Luci.
Luci was not directed at the soft sofa that had been used to sign the agreement file. However, Luci was directed elsewhere.
Mr. John also moved to a table and another chair which was next to a large table with a swivel chair that seemed to be Evan’s. The table and chairs that Mr. John was aiming for were a bit far from the soft sofa. For Luci there was no problem sitting in another chair, it was better to sit in an ordinary chair than sitting on something that felt soft because maybe the softness would make Luci remember what happened on the bed earlier.
“I will make binding documents. Because this is very sudden, therefore you have to wait.” Mr. John said as he turned on the computer monitor that was on the table.
His gray eyes but still alert didn’t look at Luci at all. Mr. John’s eyes were now busy scanning his computer monitor. For a person who was in his forties, Mr. John was also fast at operating computers.
Mr. John’s thin, crooked fingers seemed to run across the keyboard. The sound of printing and clicking could be heard a lot. And then after a while, Mr. John seemed to have finished creating, or editing, the binding document.
A document or binding letter was a term for a letter that would be used by Evan so that the CEO could bind the person in the agreement, so that person could not escape at all before the agreement ended.
The binding letter could also contain the consequences and penalties that could be obtained if the bound party (currently the bound party was Luci) committed violations of the points of the agreement they agreed to earlier.
Mr. John was seen re-examining his work. After everything was confirmed, Mr. John took the extra paper from his desk drawer, because the paper in the printer machine was deemed insufficient. Though there were at least about two dozen papers on printer machines today.
Luci swallowed her saliva when that much paper still had to be added by at least double the amount of paper in the printer machine. So you could say Mr. John took about four dozen papers from the drawer.
GULP!
‘What exactly are these people planning?’ Luci thought with a gaping and blank face.
Looked like after this Luci’s life would not go well. It seemed that after this Luci would have a hard time living her life normally like before. After all, Luci also did not know when this agreement would be terminated.
‘Or could this be my last job as a jockey?’ Luci thought fearfully.
‘But, if Mr. Evan can pay me a huge amount of money then there’s no way I can stop doing this job. Oh yeah, I don’t remember about the fee I’ll get. Damn, am I not going to be paid?’ continued Luci worriedly.
The printer engine was rattling smooth and soft. The papers began to roll quietly and orderly. They had been arranged very neatly by Mr. John. Mr. John’s work was always neat and orderly.
Now only the creaking sound of the printer moving could be heard by the two of them. Mr. John’s eyes were still cold with his pale face like a statue painted white and gray. His eyes currently traced Luci’s face and glared at her.
Luci, the girl who was being watched, was not aware that she was being watched by someone. In her mind, she was too preoccupied with preconceived notions about her future. In addition, Luci still remembered how much she would get from this mission.
‘Gosh, they want to frame me, huh? How come I don’t know at all about the payment I’ll be getting?’ Luci cursed in her heart.
Then her eyes glanced at the rolling printer paper. The color of the paper, which had been white, had been stained by the forms of words that would later torment Luci’s life. If only the paper remained white when it came out of the printer. Huff, Luci sighed.
“Mr. John.” Luci started to speak. It felt like Luci was becoming a beggar here instead of a service provider. Even though it was Evan’s team who met Luci first, not her.
“What is it?” replied Mr. John in his disciplined tone.
For God’s sake, Luci hated that tone. Because Luci always got that disciplined tone when she was in the cage. Her eldest brother named Lion had that tone of voice. Luci still remembered it very well.
“Eh, I know this is rude. But can I know how much fee I will receive later?” Luci took a deep breath before asking that embarrassing question.
This was the first time Luci had asked for the fee first. It was usually the client who asked about the fee first. Or even Luci would hand over the details of the fee she needed. Dealing with Evan was very complicated.
“You will be paid a very high fee if you can do this job well. Therefore, never make a mistake!” replied Mr. John with a straight face.
