Chapter 88 Ch 86: Signs Of Surveillance [Pt1]
“Master, please enter the room and call if you need anything from us. We will do our very best to serve you.”
The member of the Saints who had led Yohan and Zane to their reception room blushed faintly at seeing Yohan’s face. His charm was working on the unknown member as well which made Yohan more confident.
Karen just glared at the shy girl for some reason before dismissing her outright.
“Master Strout, please enter the room. I have made sure that we would not be disturbed by anyone while we are alone inside here. Of course, your assistant is an exception to this rule.”
Karen smiled at Yohan before her smile went cold as she looked at Zane. Zane did not pay her much mind as well, knowing when to back down.
“I can see how much effort Lady Karen put into our visit. Then, both I and my assistant would take you up on your offer.”
Yohan smiled toward Karen but he also signaled for Zane to start making his move. It was time to start digging around for any dirt they could find.
Ideally, Yohan would love to be the one who went around searching for the key while Zane entertained Karen. But it seemed like Lady Karen had her eyes set on Yohan. Zane was trying to interfere to the best of his abilities but Karen was not falling for his charms.
So both of them quietly took thier seats before Zane raised his hand. It was time to act separately for now.
“Excuse me, but can someone show me the way to the bathroom? I am afraid that it’s an emergency and it might take me some time to come back.”
The members on the Saint’s side looked taken aback by this sudden request but Zaen just continued smiling.
In the end, it was John who stepped forward and volunteered to take Zane away. With that, one of the objectives that they needed to take care of was achieved.
Now Zane would use his powers to drag the answers out of John and Yohan would distract everyone else in the meantime. It was not a perfect plan but it was going to work nonetheless.
“Hey, what are all of you doing standing around like fools? Hurry up and serve our guests the ‘special’ drinks we have.”
Yohan noticed how everyone else in the room looked nervous at Karen’s request. It made Yohan certain that there was something fishy about this ‘special’ drink that Karen had ordered.
Still, it was not his place to raise suspicion about his character. All he needed to do was to nod and grin at whatever was being said to him. That was all he needed to do.
“M-Madam, are you sure you-”
“Don’t ask questions and hurry up with our drinks and snacks. You all don’t want to be the reason our deal falls short, right?”
Karen had a beautiful smile on her face but everyone else winched at seeing her expression. She was being too much but Yohan seemed to not mind looking in the other direction.
Once everyone had gone out to fetch the things they needed, Karen’s expression smoothened out and she looked relieved. Her voice also went from tense to relax and she ever rewarded Yohan with a non-malice-filled smile.
“I am sorry for their behavior. I am trying to teach these children good manners but something they just don’t get it. I hope that they did not offend you with their poor manners.”
Lady Karen certainly had a bold character with how she spoke and acted. However, it was not Yohan’s place to point out her hypocrisy. And he did not want to get involved in their guild’s matter.
Especially since he was here to destroy them and take their key away.
“I understand how difficult it can be to have people under you who do not listen to your commands. I also hate back–stabbers and liars.”
Yohan let Karen know that he was talking about her but if she noticed then she did not show it. She just smiled her easy smile, not letting anything show on her face.
But her foot was sneaking all over Yohan’s lower leg and climbing higher. There was not even a tablecloth to hide her intentions behind.
“I see. So Mr. Yohan is a morally upright person? I guess you do look like the part.”
Karen’s face did not break its smile the whole time but she was talking liberties now. Her foot was in Yohan’s lap, even touching his blood-filled cock.
She did look surprised at the first touch, likely wondering how Yohan was so big and hard under her touch.
But that surprise soon turned into confidence and Yohan did not stop her. It seemed to give Karen even more confidence and she decided to be even bolder. Her foot which had been rubbing against Yohan’s cock became even harsher and firmer.
Yohan had to bite his lip to not moan out loud. He did not need to give Karen any power by showing her that she had control over him.
It was only after there was a knock at the door that Karen jumped a little back and gave Yohan a little more freedom. Her face looked flushed and red due to the effort she had to make to contain her anger.
“M-My lady, I have the drinks and s-snacks you ordered.”
The maid sounded shy as she spoke. Karen gave her permission to enter with an annoyed expression and the maid walked slowly.
When the maid bowed down to put her tray down, Yohan could see under her shirt. The maid wore no bra so her breasts were giggling all over the place. They were big and the perfect shape to be fucked into.
Yohan wanted to try the maid out and break her into submission but he made no move to do anything.
Especially when Karen looked ready to kill the maid on the spot for showing up like this in front of Yohan. He had to wonder if it was a choice on the maid’s end or if was it an accident.
“This is enough. You are ready to go now.”
Karen quickly dismissed the maid and Yohan looked at her with a curious expression. He could not tell if Karen was jealous or if she was worried about her plan. Her closed expression made her a little difficult to ready.
Her guard only dropped once the maid was out of the picture. All this while, she had not taken her foot out of Yohan’s lap and she continued her little ‘massage’ once the maid was out of the picture.
“I am so sorry for that indecent behavior of hers, Mr. Strout. I will make sure to scold the maid later for making you uncomfortable.”
Karen was being a hypocrite right now but Yohan did not point it out. He wanted to see what lengths was Karen willing to go to achieve her goal.
“I see. But that child is young so she will learn all on her own even if you do not say anything to her. A beautiful moan like you do not need to worry about such things after all.”
Lady Karen’s face had a small blush after hearing Yohan’s words. Her naturally pale skin had gone pink and her eyes darted all over the room.
For some reason, Yohan got the feeling that Lady Karen was not used to such genuine compliments. And Yohan’s compliment had been genuine, even if it was laced with other intentions.
“Thank you for your kind words, Yohan. N-Now, enough of this embarrassing talk. Why don’t you sip this? I assure you that it is quite tasty to have.”
Lady Karen poured Yohan this ‘special’ drink that she ordered. And Yohan did not need to take a sip to know that it was laced with something.

Yohan wanted to go for immunity but it would be bad if he was caught faking his reaction to the sleeping pills.
Zane was not back by now which meant that he had found out about something. Yohan also needed to put in the effort and fulfill his part of the deal.
He had a feeling that he would be able to get to put an end to his curiosity if he followed along with what Lady Karen wanted him to do. And he had nothing to lose from acting his part.
It was not like the Saints could kill him with such an open invitation that had been offered to him. Zane will cause a outroar and the whole organization would be dragged into this right.
“It will be my pleasure to have a drink poured by such a lady as beautiful as you. Then, I hope that you have pleasant dreams, Mr. Strout. Because this might be the last time you can dream this freely.”
Yohan had no idea what Karen meant but he was sure of it now - Lady Karen was trouble and her plans for Yohan must be massive.
Because the potion she had used was much stronger than Yohan had anticipated it to be. And he ended up losing consciousness in the end.
