"If saving you is worth five million, then stealing that kiss from you should also be worth five million. So, we're even now..."
Basil Jaak said calmly, placing the box containing five million taels of silver onto the table in front of Bertha.
Huff!
Bertha raised a hand, intending to slap Basil Jaak across the face again.
However, this time Basil Jaak had anticipated her reaction when he spoke. One cannot stumble twice into the same river. This time, Basil Jaak didn't allow her to succeed.
Instead, without putting much force into her hand, Bertha's strike was easily caught by Basil Jaak. With a teasing grin, he said, "Don't be impulsive—impulsiveness is the devil. Wow, why does your hand smell fragrant? Did you spray perfume?"
After saying this, Basil Jaak let go of her hand and used his Divine Travel Skill, darting straight toward the door.
Clang! Bang!
