Chapter 138: make me your lover Lord Beckett
She asked with a smile clearly indicating that she knows what he wanted.
Lord Beckett immediately nodded with a smile and decided to change this place to a different room.
Well this is the study in the upper floor where his bed room is nearby.
The servants served tea for Lord Beckett.
He is sitting behind the desk while Elizabeth is standing in front of him silently.
She waited till the servants left and then smiled.
She started to speak.
"I my thoughts are correct, Lord Beckett is going after the compass that Jack carries with him.
It is a compass that did not point north instead it points towards what we desire the most while holding the compass.
Is it what you are searching for right now?"
Elizabeth said with a smile but did not stop here and continued after a brief pause.
"In fact, this compass is just a means to you.
What you wanted is actually a treasure chest.
It is a very special treasure chest that holds the heart of a very special man.
Am I correct Lord Beckett?"
Elizabeth asked with a smile of knowing everything.
The smile on the face of Lord Beckett started to recede as he heard the words of Elizabeth.
He did not expect that Elizabeth knows everything about what he is looking for and what the destination is.
This means that she knows more than what others know and she can become a means to acquire what he desires.
So his opinion of Elizabeth changed.
Also his thoughts appeared on his face because of the sudden shock.
He lost his calm for a moment.
But he still gained it back and became expressionless.
Elizabeth looked at his face and continued.
"I have a way to solve this problem for you.
You should know holding me as a bargaining chip can let you control two people that can actually track down Jack.
You will not just have one opportunity but two of them at the same time.
Even if one of them fails you can still succeed in the end by the efforts of the other.
But you need my cooperation to achieve that.
I have to ask them for that so that they can go there in person to search and obtain that thing.
Well I need you to put on some act for them to do this.
But I want something in return.
I know that you are in possession of a letter of Marque.
There should only be 1 letter of Marque in your possession.
I want to have that in return for my cooperation for you to get your hands on Jack's compass.
That is the end of the deal.
Tell me what you think about this deal.
Of course you can still hold me captive.
But there are many uncertainties.
Holding things in the hand and giving things away to chance are two different things.
I presume you are not stupid enough to make the second choice and believe in chance.
If you do, you would not be in your current position."
Elizabeth said with a smile and let lord Beckett think for himself.
It did not take long for him to come to the conclusion.
Well it is a simple deal.
Naturally he accepted Elizabeth's deal.
Elizabeth took the chance to speak.
"Then let us seal the deal with happy cooperation.
I am still innocent and my wedding is gone.
It is not like I can be wed properly in the future.
Since you broke my wedding you have to take the initiative to compensate me.
I know that you might have a wife or lover.
But having one more is not a bad thing.
I can be sure that I am beautiful because of the two people that wanted to do anything for me.
Since I am the only one that can come out of this matter without any problem, I want to become your lover.
It is not much to ask right.
I am still innocent.
You can take my innocence to make me your lover and our cooperation starts here."
Elizabeth said these words that really startled Lord Beckett.
You know that it is 16th century and women are very reserved even in the western countries.
They would not let anyone do them casually.
But the words of Elizabeth were different.
Lord Beckett was shocked for a moment but then he understood the core of the problem.
First of all the two people that are fighting over her are not in high position and they could not break free from their current situation.
Second is that her father is also involved and their very foundation was in problem of crumbling.
In this kind of situation the best way to come out of this with little loss is to find a powerful person and cling on to him.
So she directly took the chance to find the person that pushed them into this situation to cling on to.
It is not like he would be at a disadvantage in this matter.
Elizabeth is really a beauty and her father is a well known noble.
As long as he supports them a little they can directly stabilize.
Also he gets to taste the beauty like Elizabeth and also get the support of a noble like governor Swann.
There is beauty, wealth, fame and power.
So the proposal of Elizabeth is really good.
Any way he is not married and his family has disputes with his dear sister Jane Beckett dead.
With no other person to call family he felt that the idea of Elizabeth was good.
He wanted to test the waters first and think of marrying her in the future slowly.
That is if he did not find any other woman that can match his position in the east India Company.
Any way Elizabeth said that she don't mind being his lover.
So this would be enough to play his cards and have some fun.
