Chapter 10 10. Dumbass Rose
Rose trotted towards Alex angrily, As she was coming her slender water snake-like waist twisted and her wide ass moved side by side.
Because this novel is written considering it has a male protagonist, Other than social status and physical strength nothing else changed in the bodies of the women in this world. Women are still the ones who give birth.
The reason man is encouraged by the government to have polygamy is the low birth rate in women.
The power in this world is more partial toward the mortal woman, So that power is the reason that makes women in this world stronger than men but the side effect of that is a higher immunity and resistant, Because of that chances of egg being fertilized became very low.
Also the ratio of men and women in this world is 1:5. This meanss each 5 women there is only one male, Hence the government is asking males to have polygamy.
As for where that power comes from? It's simple, Like every brain-dead novel like this it comes either from a space asteroid or some very powerful being put there.
Alex was not sure what the reason was as the author of this novel didn't mention it in his novel at all, It was hinted it might be one of these 2 things but Alex was sure the author of this novel didn't think of this problem at all.
After all, Why bother to put logic into the fulfillment novel, Right?
"Stop pretending to be dead and answer me, Why are you here? Are trying to get close to my sister again? Do you forget you just accepted money to stay away from her?"
Rose pointed her finger at his nose and arrogantly questioned him. She was really disgusted by this leech-like man, Who only knows how to live by sucking others' blood.
"What!!! Alia is here? Is she alright? Nothing happened to her right? Is she sick?"
Alex was dumbfounded, This Rose is a really stupid girl. She didn't even consider other possibilities why I might be here but directly made up a reason on her own.
She never bothers to think, How can he find out that Madam Miller is sick and admitted here? That is the top secret of their family. After all, No matter if Alia is the heir of the Miller family and handles the business but the current head still is Madam Miller, Who held all the power in her hands.
If news of her being sick leaks out the companies under them will take a hit and people with motive use this opportunity to weaken their families.
So good-hearted Alex created an excuse for her. If not and she spoke that Madam Miller is admitted here, She will be severely punished severely by the family law.
After receiving the hidden family as a reward, He also got all related memories of the family and its rules. It's not something a normal person can bear.
"Huh!? How could my sister be sick? Wait! Are you cursing my sister? It's not my sister but- "
"Really!? Is Alia fine? That's a relief. I am here because my friend's mother is admitted here. Tomorrow is her operation."
Goosebumps appeared on Alex's body as he heard what this dumb girl was about to say, So he hurriedly cut her off. It was really stressful to act and thought of a solution for this dumbass.
Okay, He admits. It was not that he was worried about her but he feared for his life. You know this is a family secret of the Miller family, Not to mention this one can cause quite large harm to the family.
So they surely will do everything to stay this secret be still secret. So you can imagine, What happens if you know about this level of secret.
Although he has a hidden family background, Which is quite strong, The system was not stingy and gave quite a strong family background. Stronger the Miller family. The one that can still can stand in the middle and late plot. This is enough to show its power.
But the problem is that all the power of the family was in the capital city, not here. Far lake can't quench current thirst. There is still some power in Berlin of his family but that is nothing compared to the Miller family.
"Is that friend you said is Grace?"
Rose's attention was caught by a friend in his mouth. Unknowingly she spoke these words as if she just realized something.
Even though her brain might be slow but it's not useless, It still works from time to time.
"Yes, Her mother is admitted here but don't worry, She will be fine after a tomorrow's surgery."
Alex, after seeing that he successfully changed the subject, Didn't mind answering a few questions of hers.
Anyway, he didn't want to have any connection with Alia. Although she is the heroine and will also give some super powerful rewards after being raided, She herself is the problem.
The protagonist has a protagonist halo. That's how he can open a harem and survive from her but he doesn't have cheat luck like the protagonist. He will only create a Shura field if he adds her to his raider list.
Then he has to spend extra time to make sure she does not mess up the whole harem, So he didn't want to take a risk at all.
The reason he openly accepted his friend Grace is because he knows how clean freak Alia is. If she knew he was with another woman, She would be disgusted by him and stop paying attention to him. At least he thinks so.
[Ding! +30 Favorability of Rose increased for the host (Current 50 Crush).]
"???"
Alex wants answers, He didn't even do anything, How come answering one simple question increased favorability? Is it that easy to increase favorability?
Of course not, Most of the long relationships couples are only able to reach at 60 love max. So there is something wrong with increasing the favorability of this much at once.
"I misunderstood you."
Rose looked at Alex with complicated eyes. There is even an apology in her eyes. As if she felt bad for wronging him.
'What you misunderstood? Why can't I understand? You are clearly speaking English."
Alex's brain wasn't able to process what was happening. You know he is the villain. How can a female partner look at him with that look?
What did he see? Rose the thorny woman has little softness and apology for him in her eyes. There is definitely something wrong.
"I-If you asked, I offered money for the operation for her mother. Our family has many charity organizations. You don't have to sacrifice your love- I mean your self-esteem to get money."
Rose said very softly, There are lots of apologies and self-blame in her voice.
She "understands". She "understands" that Alex's actions might appear like the green tea bitch but he has a heart of gold.
He even sacrificed his happiness for someone else. Tell me which green tea can do that? They all really misunderstood him.
Maybe the money he was taking from others was to help someone. Yes, he surely does, I was blind before to not see the goodness of him and hurt him with my actions.
He might really love my sister dearly but because of me, they got separated. I even put a price tag on his love. Doing that I should have really insulted his love but look at him, He is still talking casually as if I didn't just commit the crime of blasphemy of pure love.
He suffers alone, Putting fake smile on his face without letting others know his pain but suffering alone internally. He didn't even say the purpose of taking money because he didn't want to show it off. For that he even took insults from me.
How can she be able to hurt this good man? Because of her rushed and stupid decision she really did crime this time.
Right!? He had such a big reaction just now, thinking that my sister might make me ill. That's a good sign. He still loves my sister. There is still hope. I just wish I could also find this dedicated man...maybe?
No he is my sister's man, I have to salvage the mess I created.
Rose's thoughts were running wildly like a dog in the children's park without leash.
'How can she even come up with that?'
Alex was dumbfounded here. He realized why she was acting strange. This dumbass woman's brain might be working overtime to make up stories on its own.
Seeing an apologetic and self-blaming look in her eyes, Alex felt shivers run through his body.
He wanted to stay away from this woman, Fearing he might be infected by her stupidity.
"I know you hate me and I do not blame you for that, I deserve it, But can you accept this check as my apology? It's really not insulting you by giving money but I only know how to apologize."
Rose quickly pulled out the check from her purse and without hesitation wrote his name on it. After that, she without giving it much thought put a 7 million amount on it.
After that, she hesitantly held that check in front of Alex, Waiting for him to accept this check as her apology.
'What's the meaning of this action? You already wrote my name on it. I have to accept it even if I don't want the money."
Alex's brain was hurting. He thought about all the possibilities but he couldn't understand why his simple answer created this much change.
He hates this feeling, He likes to be in control and fears the unknown. He ransacked his brain this time but he still couldn't come up with any reason.
Then he looked at the check helplessly. Anyway, he had to accept the check even if he didn't want to as once name was written on it. That 7 million became unusable by others unless he took it out and gave it back.
This weird law applied to the check in this.
'Fuck it, I will think about why this is happening later first take the money.'
Alex saw the check and had some wanting. He currently is penniless. Old Alex never thought of saving money. Right now in his bank there was not even enough money for the gas.
Fortunately, he has an electric car.
[Ding!.... ]
Just as he reached out for the check, the system's voice rang. It was always ringing when he was just about to do something not before or after, A very inconvenient system.
But the thinking system might have an answer for the current situation, He opened a notification.
(A/N : I write a little differently than usual because I felt my previous writing was bland without much emotion. So I changed my writing format.
