When portraying herself in a bad light, Lisa can still smile, which only further shows how troubled her head is.
Of course, this was not stupidity. It was probably intelligence that had already surpassed the limits of intelligence so that she had no more confusion over what she should do.
She was not hindered by anything including morals.
Basically, she was the same as Rebecca, just a slightly different way of life.
Perhaps all the women of those families were like that.
The ones who were truly sane were very few. Jane of the Armstrong Family seemed to be normal, but she was also young, perhaps still in a state of conflict of mind.
Arthur took her hands that were on his shoulders and removed them from there as he replied, "I can accept you, but as a collection as you said. And you must be ready to do whatever I command."
Arthur finally made that decision. Killing her didn't do him any favors as she was a quick submissive, and once submissive she would surely work hard to keep him happy, just like Rebecca.
Having Rebecca as a spy might have been enough, but adding one more would give him the upper hand.
"Sure, I, your big sister, will do everything for you, little brother?" Lisa quickly nodded, but received a sharp look from Arthur.
She was truly shameless, daring to act as if they were little brother and big sister.
From her expression, it was clear that she expected that.
Arthur then held her head and sent his magic into it, a move that made her almost jump.
She was frightened for a moment but forcibly smiled.
"Brother, what have you done?" she asked.
"The point is to make you unable to betray me," Arthur replied.
Lisa rolled her eyes, thinking that dealing with a Magus like Arthur was indeed a problem. She basically couldn't switch lanes anymore.
"This is good, that way, I can finally be someone who is loyal," she said, still trying to praise Arthur.
"How are you going to solve the problem here?" asked Arthur while sitting on the sofa and glancing at Oliver's corpse.
He didn't have any problems, but Lisa would definitely be questioned as to why she was still alive when Oliver was dead.
The woman looked at Oliver's corpse with a furrowed forehead and said, "this is troublesome, I regret getting engaged to him. He got me into trouble and even after dying still leaves problems for me."
Arthur, "..."
"I don't care how you do it, if you can't handle suspicion, it's better to just jump into the sea," Arthur said before leaving by teleporting away, leaving Lisa alone in the room.
The woman's expression became rather gloomy as she began to think of ways.
"Damn," she said.
After saying that, she kicked the head of Oliver's corpse.
Luckily the man was already in hell or he would have gone crazy from the frustration of being betrayed to that point.
When Arthur returned to the auction site, he found that the people who had entered the building earlier had opted out.
Arthur asked Amanda what happened and Amanda said that people were worried, so they decided not to participate in this auction.
It seemed to be canceled. Although Gabriel had already been taken to the police station, no one dared to take the risk for fear that someone else might be carrying that kind of poison.
At this moment, quite a few people are curious, wondering how Arthur knew about the poison in Gabriel's watch.
If he was a nobody, he would have been interrogated, but his status had already been revealed. No one dared to investigate him easily.
Plus, some people finally found out that his aunt was one of the ministers in Europe.
With so much status, even just talking to him required preparation.
Of course, Arthur wasn't planning on explaining either.
"Shall we just go back to the hotel?" he asked Amanda.
She nodded, looking happier if they went back to the hotel now.
Although participating in the auction had its own thrill of entertainment, but in such a situation, even if the auction continued, the atmosphere would be different.
Amanda would rather go to the room and get naked and do romantic things with Arthur.
On the way back to the hotel, she asked Arthur what happened.
Arthur tells her a little about Oliver, but doesn't tell her that the reason Oliver acted out was because he was angry after his henchman was attacked.
More than that, Amanda knew nothing.
When they finally returned to the hotel room, they decided to lie down on the bed right away, and of course, took off their clothes so that the sensation of cuddling would be more pronounced.
Until they fell asleep, they did not make love, only occasionally caressing each other's bodies.
However, when they wake up in the morning, they immediately make love wildly because their desire in the morning cannot be controlled.
It was a beautiful and enjoyable game. Amanda moaned loudly uncontrollably.
They then showered and dressed, exiting their room in search of a fancy restaurant.
On the way, Arthur received a message from Rebecca saying that she was already in New York.
She tells him that the Winchesters are in mourning, vowing to do the unstoppable if Arthur continues this matter.
In other words, they are ready for an all-out war, something that Arthur should also avoid as it could cause unimaginable damage unless he can kill them all outright.
Rebecca also asked Arthur about Lisa, asking why she wasn't killed.
Apparently she had been crying over Oliver's death all night to make people believe that she was completely innocent.
Arthur just smiled upon learning that, but didn't explain anything to Rebecca.
Not long after, Amanda's car arrived in front of a fancy restaurant that was actually close to the NASDAQ office.
The office was already very crowded even though there were still a few hours left before the IPO. Reporters came in cars, circling every corner of the building.
Worried about being discovered and disturbed, Amanda finally asked Kaiya to park the car in the corner of the restaurant's parking lot.
They then rented a private room in the restaurant.
There they ate while waiting for the IPO to start. They planned to come when there was only a short time left before the IPO started.
From time to time, more people arrived. Most look like high-profile investors.
Even the mayor came to see.
However, the most interesting was a car escorted by three police cars and three military cars.
It looked so exaggerated that people wondered if it was the president's car. However, the one getting out of the car was a middle-aged woman with a very beautiful appearance.
She was dressed in a professional outfit consisting of a suit-lined shirt and a knee-length skirt while her hair was in a neat bun.
When looking at her figure, people were amazed and mesmerized.
That included Amanda, Kaiya, and Lin.
"I didn't expect her to come too," Amanda said in a low voice before looking at Arthur.
"You know, this woman is even more powerful than your aunt. She can be said to be the Queen of Money." She also explained about Rebecca to Arthur.
From the looks of it, she clearly idolized her.
Arthur pretended to have no reaction, just staring at Rebecca calmly.
Unfortunately the woman had not yet become an Official Magus so she could not be compared to Isabel.
While he was silent, Amanda continued, "If you can subdue that woman, make her work for you, your business in this country will definitely be very easy. Well, if you can subdue her purely without coercion, I swear I won't be jealous even if you do romantic things with her in front of me."
The way Amanda looked at that woman seemed to be quite excessive for her to say such nonsense.
Arthur wanted to laugh, wondering how she would react if she knew her true nature including her relationship with him.
For this matter, he chose to remain silent, going to let her be surprised alone.
Rebecca looked around as Amanda was talking about her, as if she was looking for someone.
However, she still had to enter the NASDAQ office as she did not want to be disturbed by the reporters.
"Maybe it's time we came, the NASDAQ boss keeps calling," Amanda said after Rebecca entered.
"Sure!" Arthur had no objection.
After that, they exited the restaurant, quickly attracting attention due to their striking appearance.
The reporters seemed to recognize Amanda, so they approached them.
Fortunately at the same time, NASDAQ security came and guarded them, not letting anyone get close.
Amanda just smiled at the reporters, as if asking them to understand that she couldn't be interviewed right now because she was busy.
On the other hand, investors who already knew about Arthur chatted with their unknowing friends, quietly talking about him.
