Chapter 2066: Why Don’t You Marry Him?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Eiffie was standing at the door with a small basket. She pulled her cotton vest tighter. The weather was still so cold. This damn winter seemed especially long.
Of course, she wouldn’t be feeling so cold if it wasn’t for the fact that she was wearing a dress.
She specially came to thank Mr. Hades today and to inform him that the registration for the liquor tasting was successful.
She had already given up the plan to seduce Hades to get the liquor. This would make her look like a beautiful bad woman who would do anything for benefits.
After all, she already had a cellar full of the world’s best Titan Liquor, which would allow the Titan Tavern to safely operate for 20 years.
Therefore, she planned to establish a firm friendship with the outstanding Mr. Hades now.
Of course, she also wouldn’t mind if something beyond friendship happened between them.
Right at that moment, she felt she already had the capital that put her on equal footing with Mr. Hades, including the right to have a conversation or verbal spar with his wife.
She took out a small mirror from her little bag to make sure that her makeup was still maintained in tip-top condition, and her face still had a perfect smile.
Crack.
The door opened inwards. A little girl stood at the door, and sized Eiffie up curiously.
“Hello, pretty little baby. Is Mr. Hades at home?” Eiffie said to Amy smilingly.
She had to admit that this little girl was really exquisite. She inherited all her mother’s positive traits, which made people want to steal her away.
“Yes. Not only is my father home, my mother is home as well.” Amy nodded. She turned her head to take a look before stepping forward, and softly said, “Mother knew that Father went to your tavern to pay yesterday. He was punished and made to stand.”
“I see…” Eiffie had an awkward expression, and she was feeling a little self-reproachful. She didn’t expect Mr. Hades to suffer at home because of her.
“Icame to look for Mr. Hades regarding the liquor tasting event. We were discussing work yesterday too,” Eiffie smilingly explained. She didn’t deliberately control her volume as she wanted the people inside to hear her too.
“Please come in, Miss Eiffie.” Mag’s voice rang out from within.
“Please come in.” Amy stepped to the side too, but she still softly reminded her, “Don’t antagonize my mother. She’s really very formidable.”
Eiffie laughed it off. She was not a pushover. She puffed out her chest, and walked into the tavern confidently.
This was her first time walking into Saipan Tavern. Its decoration and size were simpler and smaller than she had expected.
However, her gaze was immediately attracted by the woman sitting at the center of the table.
Words could hardly describe her beauty. At least, this was the first time she felt inferior when she saw her face and figure.
She was simply sitting there calmly with a picture book in her hand, and yet she looked like the master of the house.
When Irina looked up and fixed her gaze on Eiffie, the latter instinctively halted her footsteps.
She sensed an unprecedented pressure that came from being suppressed by another woman, who even had a smile on her lips.
However, she had sensed a cold murderous intent in that smile.
This was the feedback from a woman’s powerful sixth sense.
This was a terrifying woman, and also one whom Eiffie had no power to go against.
Her uplifted head couldn’t help lowering slowly. Her puffed-up chest couldn’t help deflating too. Only her gaze was still focused on Irina stubbornly.
Irina was also sizing up Eiffie. This young woman had an air that was way beyond her age. Didn’t some men prefer such an aura?
She flicked a glance at Mag, and wondered if he was one of those men.
However, she tossed that thought away when she thought of his performance last night. Well, he didn’t have the guts to do that.
But, that woman did have that kind of thoughts.
Come to think of it, there had been many years since a woman like that had appeared.
Ha, interesting.
There was a hint of interest in Irina’s gaze. She wanted to see what that woman would do to seduce her man. She would take it as a form of practice.
Mag, who was sitting between the two of them, could sense the terrible presence of a love battlefield.
Currently, he didn’t know if he should be happy or unhappy.
“Miss Eiffie, right? Why are you here looking for my man?” Irina asked Eiffie with interest.
“You must be Mr. Hades’ wife.” Eiffie smiled and placed the small basket on the table. “I’m here to inform Mr. Hades that your tavern has successfully registered for the liquor tasting event. I’m also here to thank him for doing me such a favor yesterday. These are some specialty snacks which are a token of
my appreciation. I still have many things that I need to ask Mr. Hades for advice on in the future.”
“Miss Eiffie is being too polite. It’s just a small matter. You helped me to register too.” Mag forced himself to stand up and make polite small talk with Eiffie. “Please sit down. It’s so cold. Let’s have a cup of hot tea.”
He only wanted to make Eiffie go home as soon as possible. It was the man who suffered the most in such an ambiance.
“Yes. It’s so cold today, but Mr. Hades’ tavern is so warm. Do you have a furnace on?” Eiffie sat down on the chair next to Mag smilingly. She put her reddened hands over the furnace, and gave Mag a bright smile. “It’s so warm.”
He threw a glance at Irina. He really was just being polite.
Irina didn’t speak, either. She was simply looking at him with a smile, seemingly waiting for him to resolve it himself.
Eiffie had already sat down, so Mag naturally couldn’t chase her away. He could only pour her a cup of tea.
“Thank you,” Eiffie said sweetly. She held the teacup with both her hands to warm them up.
‘Mag nodded and sat down again.
Eiffie said to Mag, “I have passed the blueprint to three old blacksmiths this morning. The end products should be ready in three days’ time. I will have to bother Mr. Hades to help me assemble them then.”
“Alright, I will help you assemble the spare parts once they are ready. I have to teach you how to use it on the spot too.” Mag nodded. Eiffie wasn’t Hannah. The former had no idea about machinery at all.
“Idon’t even know how to thank you.” Eiffie looked at Mag gratefully.
“Why don’t you marry him?” Irina interrupted with a smile.
Eiffie froze before revealing an ecstatic expression?
Mag’s eye twitched a few times. What’s going on now?
Eiffie flicked her hair, shook her head, and said, “How can I do that? Mr. Hades is a married man with children, after all. Moreover, he has a beautiful wife like you and adorable daughters.”
Irina nodded, and said, “That’s good. At least you’re not blind.”
Eiffie’s hand froze immediately.
