Tuna Hotel, ordinary room on the second floor.

As soon as Rosen opened the door, a strong herbal scent hit him in the face.

Darlett frowned and raised his hand to fan his nose gently: "Mr. Robin, I can't get used to the smell of herbs. Can we talk standing at the door?"

Rosen was delighted: "I was afraid of being exposed, so it's just right not to go in."

But there was a hint of displeasure on his face, as if he felt that Darlett did not respect his wife enough. After being silent for a few seconds, he finally nodded.

"As you wish, sir."

The two stopped at the door, five or six meters away from Selena's "bed".

Darlett glanced at the bed and saw a middle-aged woman with a pale face, sunken eye sockets and lifeless eyes.

With just one glance, he felt that the vitality was draining away from this woman at a speed visible to the naked eye. It would not be surprising even if she died the next moment.

He subconsciously took half a step back to keep himself further away from the other person.

"Mr. Robin, your wife's condition looks terrible."

Robin is naturally Rosen's pseudonym.

He nodded sadly: "I tried my best, it was useless. No, it was me who harmed her. I shouldn't have let her get wet in that damn rain!"

Darlett could tell there was a story behind this, but he had no interest in it. He only cared about the little boy that Rosen was holding and how to get this boy.

He looked at the poor woman on the hospital bed again, and suddenly found that this woman looked very similar to Adam. If she was in good health, she would definitely be a very beautiful woman.

It suddenly dawned on me: "No wonder she could give birth to such a beautiful child like Adam, and no wonder Robin was willing to marry her and love her so much even though he knew she had a child."

There's no way around it, women with beautiful faces are favored by fate.

Darlett thought he had figured out the situation, and a vague plan gradually emerged in his mind.

Out of the shrewd instinct of a successful businessman, he once again carefully observed the guest room in front of him.

It was not because he found any flaws, but to find more bargaining cards.

Seeing this, Rosen understood Darrett's idea and immediately whispered to Selena: "Cough quickly."

'Cough cough~~~Cough cough cough~~~Cough cough cough~~~'

Selena coughed heart-wrenchingly, and suddenly took out a handkerchief and covered her mouth.

When the handkerchief was taken away, there were obvious bright red bloodstains on the white handkerchief.

Rosen was shocked and apologized to Darlett: "Sir, please wait for me outside. I have to go take care of my wife."

He walked over quickly and left Darlet hanging by the door.

Dalet no longer had the mind to observe, and immediately retreated to the corridor, even wanting to turn around and leave.

Because he was worried that the other person's disease might be contagious.

But the moment he turned around, he saw the little boy again.

This cute little thing was leaning against the door with its hands behind its back, looking down at its little leather shoes with a sad look on its face.

After just one look, Darlett couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Oh, Mother Nature, how can there be such a perfect little person in the world~~ He is like a creature that has grown on my heart~"

He clearly felt that if he didn't get this cute little thing, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

So he stopped, summoned up the greatest patience of his life, and waited quietly.

About half a quarter of an hour later, the miserable young man appeared at the door again, looking at Darlet with an apologetic look on his face.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have you see this scene. Now you know our situation. If there's nothing else, see you later."

As he said this, he took Adam's hand and was about to return to the room.

Dalet rushed forward and held the door with his hand.

"Don't worry buddy, I think we should talk."

"Just the two of us, don't let the kids hear us."

Rosen nodded and patted Adam's head gently: "Be good, go to your room and stay for a while."

Adam nodded and meekly entered the room.

Rosen and Darlett were the only ones left outside the door.

Dalet took out his pipe, lit it, took a deep breath, and hid his face behind the curling green smoke.

He likes this because it prevents his negotiating opponents from observing his facial expressions.

"Mr. Robin, are you short of money?"

Rosen was silent for a while, seeming a little embarrassed, but finally nodded dejectedly.

"Yes, I am short of money. I have spent almost all my savings to save my wife."

This was exactly what Darlett had observed. He showed a confident smile on his face: "I have an idea. Do you want to hear it?"

Rosen nodded slightly.

'Ba Zi~~'

"I am a businessman, and my business is quite successful. I am not short of money, but I am short of dignity."

"In my hometown, the Kingdom of Kaa thousands of miles away, those respectable people like to find a few beautiful servants to decorate their appearance."

"As it happens, your stepson Adam is very handsome."

Rosen looked surprised, and after being surprised, he became angry. However, he tried hard to suppress his anger and just punched the wall with his fist, making a dull bang.

"Sir, I respect you, but you want me to sell Adam?!"

"No! Absolutely not! Adam is my wife's beloved child. Without him, my wife can't survive for a single day!"

"I will never sell it, you don't have to say anything!"

After saying that, he turned and was about to leave.

Just as he turned around and hadn't taken a step, Darrett grabbed his shoulder and a deep voice as tempting as the devil came from behind him.

"Mr. Robin, I can see that you are a man of integrity, and I respect you very much."

Rosen suppressed his anger and roared like a wounded lion.

"In that case, you shouldn't make such an outrageous request!"

"It was my fault. I didn't explain the situation clearly."

"how?"

Rosen's anger 'dissipated' a little, and he turned around again with a questioning look in his eyes.

Darlett smiled and said, “Mr. Robin, I’m not going to buy your stepson, I’m going to hire your stepson.”

"After hiring him, I will treat him well, educate him, and help him grow well. At the same time, I will give Adam a good salary and let you go to save your wife."

"When your wife recovers, you can bring her to me. She can see her child at any time, and she will find that her child is doing well."

At this point, Darlett took another deep puff of his pipe and smiled gently.

"Mr. Robin, everyone needs to work. You need it, I need it, and Adam needs it too. We all rely on work to support ourselves."

"Isn't it a comforting thing that Adam was able to save his mother's life with his salary at such a young age?"

"As for me, I may lose a little in business, but I gain a lot in conscience!"

"Perhaps Mother Nature will take this into consideration and allow me to live the rest of my life in peace and happiness."

This statement is absolutely impeccable.

If Rosen had not conducted a careful investigation, an ordinary person would definitely think that Darlett was a kind-hearted gentleman with noble character.

So Rosen hesitated: "This is not a small matter. I have to discuss it with my wife."

Dalet nodded: "No problem, just tell your wife."

"You said that I would advance Adam ten years' salary in one lump sum, which is about. um. 300 gold Oggs, to help him treat his mother's illness."

Rosen's eyes lit up, and a look of gratitude appeared on his face: "Okay, sir, you are such a good man."

Darlett laughed: "I'm not a good person, I just have some sympathy."

"Okay, go discuss it. If your wife agrees, come find me in the VIP room on the fourth floor."

"Find any servant and ask for Mr. Darrett, and he will lead you to me."

After saying that, Darlett turned and left.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and made his steps appear neat and swift. He didn't let out a long breath until he was out of Mr. Robin's sight.

"I hope it works."

He thought so and walked back to the guest room.

But as he walked, he became a little worried.

"This little boy is so handsome. I always feel like something is wrong with him."

"Could it be that it was transformed by Transfiguration?"

Using Transfiguration to disguise oneself is the most normal thing.

In order to have a glamorous image, nobles would use Transfiguration to cover up their flaws when attending important gatherings.

He has done it himself many times.

Although all signs indicate that the little boy is the original one, it is always better to act cautiously when in a foreign country.

"If the little boy really delivers it, let Belkan help me check the goods carefully."

He thought so.

Belkan is the wizard he has trained since childhood and is also his magical advisor. He is loyal and capable, and is one of his right-hand men when he goes abroad for business.

Many scams and traps were exposed by Belkan.
