A Trap!
"I got another gem."
"Where?" William paused, before adding, "and please, ask her first before giving me any promises you can't fulfil."
"Who said it's a girl?" The man went speechless for a second there, recalling what he initially thought about William's intentions when the latter expressed his weird demand, "it's him! And he has no say in this. I own him, and he will go with you."
The man pointed towards Thomas, who was standing with a hard face that showed nothing of his true emotions or thoughts at the moment.
William looked at Thomas, while controlling his excitement to not appear on his face. He didn't want to ruin the perfect set up that man just fell into.
William didn't want that girl named Rose, never even spared her a glance. From the first moment he saw her, and he could tell how badly spoiled she was. She wasn't weak, almost at the high stage silver grade or even might be half a step away from the gold grade. But strength wasn't everything in this world.
