Magician Online

Chapter 64: Need Help



Aldric walked while continuing to stare at the business card in his hand, sighing many times because of how his life had become much more complicated.

It was only because of that game. If he hadn't played it, he wouldn't have earned any money, wouldn't have even met Jenny.

Unfortunately after that woman, there were other things that added to the complexity of his life.

Only, he didn't go back to university after leaving that restaurant.

He told Jenny that he was somewhere else.

If they met at the university, this could cause an even bigger stir. He naturally didn't want his life to lose its peace because of that.

Hence, he chose a small park, sitting on its outskirts adjacent to the road.

It was only moments later that he saw Jenny's figure across the street, driving a white BMW sedan.

It surprised him that she had come in a different car.

While driving, she had left the window on the side open, which was why Aldric could see her.

She was wearing a mask with her hair in a ponytail in the car.

Other people couldn't recognize her, but Aldric certainly could.

The woman had to go far enough first to make a detour.

Since she passed by, it took about 7 minutes before she arrived.

She stopped the car right in front of him, then stepped out.

Wearing a pair of long jeans and a long-sleeved sweater, even if her face was covered, she still attracted too much attention due to her very striking-looking figure.

Her hands fiddled with her car keys as she approached Aldric who was sitting down.

Once in front of him, she sat down beside him, looking at him with a slightly tilted head.

"Can you tell me why you're asking about Anna?" she said.

Phew!

Aldric sighed. It felt like it wasn't too hard to say, so he ended up telling her briefly.

This was to prevent her from continuing to ask.

After hearing all that, the woman knitted her brows.

"I was worried that Anna was really sure it was you," she said in a low voice.

Unlike Aldric who thought that Anna was just suspicious, Jenny thought that she was absolutely sure.

Might as well really be.

"It's still just a belief without proof," Aldric said.

"People in the upper class don't need anything like proof," Jenny replied, "but it's good that only that woman knows. At least I don't think she'll blow the whistle on this. What I am worried about is that she will use it to threaten you later. Therefore, it's better if you build a good relationship with her, like maybe giving her a gift on Magician Online."

"Does it have to be like that?" Aldric rolled his eyes after hearing Jenny's words.

He wanted to avoid her but Jenny gave him a different suggestion.

"It would be safer if you make her feel like you're a good friend to her," Jenny replied, explaining briefly.

"By the way, come with me," she added.

"Where to?" Aldric had guessed that Jenny hadn't just come to talk about Anna. She clearly had other intentions.

"I actually need your help," the woman replied.

"My help?" Aldric looked at her strangely at that.

What favor did she need from him? After all, she had plenty of money. If there was something she couldn't solve, she could pay someone to help her.

"This is my younger brother. He wanted to train physically, but he was embarrassed to go to the gym so I bought gym equipment that was put in our house. However, he doesn't know how to train properly. I want you to help him train. After all, you have a strong physique and since childhood you've been doing different kinds of sports." Jenny explained.

She did have a younger brother who was about four years younger than them. Now he should be in high school, named Theo.

Aldric didn't get along with him very well because since childhood, he was always alone. Maybe it can be said that he also has an anti-social nature.

There were hardly any kids his age in their village who were friends with him.

Since he wouldn't even go to the gym so Jenny had to buy his own equipment for him, it seemed that he was still an anti-social person after living in London for so long.

"Why don't you pay for a trainer? It's not expensive, paying for one week is enough and after that he can train on his own," Aldric replied.

"I did, but it didn't work. He has already rejected three trainers, saying they are not suitable to train him. Therefore, now I can only ask for your help. After all, he has at least known you for a long time." Jenny replied.

"Oh my God..." Aldric said with a wry smile, scratching his head.

It wasn't that he found this inconvenient, but what made him uncomfortable was having to take care of a boy with such personality issues.

"Jenny, maybe what your little brother really needs is a few punches to the face and stomach," he continued.

City people these days are very anti-violence. This could not be said for her who came from a village with barbaric traits.

He saw violence as necessary to either correct or discipline someone.

Theo, the boy was probably worse than the Dead Fish and the Demon Horse. He was a spoiled child.

If it wasn't for him having an older sister with a lot of money, his life wouldn't have been easy.

Hearing his words, Jenny rolled her eyes.

"Aldric, that's not a solution," she said. "Making him train physically is enough. The psychiatrists say if he has a strong physique, it will make him confident later. He's also willing, it's just that he needs a trainer he can be comfortable with."

"What if he's not comfortable with me either?" asked Aldric.

"We need to try... This time, I am asking for your help, purely as a friend without any other views or intentions," she replied.
