Irene (Part 2)

"This is too much. We can't accept your kind offer," Irene said. Deep down, it was taking all her self-restraint not to eagerly pounce on Saleen and offer all the words of appreciation that existed in the world.

"Think of it as an investment from me… an investment on your clan, of course. If you feel that it is too much or too sudden, we can sign a contract," Saleen said with a smile on his face.

"A contract?" Irene asked curiously.

"Yes, it's like a loan agreement. Don't worry, I won't be putting any interest on your loan," Saleen assured the young female. 

If Nailisi had still been in the tent, she would have been laughing uncontrollably at the notion of Saleen signing yet another agreement with some random stranger. The terms and conditions of Saleen's contracts were often fair, but somehow, the other party would always regret signing them in the end.
