Chapter 105 - No Need

"So what will my task be?" Rowen asked with a curious look. He can tell that she desired his help very desperately. However, she is currently showing a nonchalant expression. To make him think that it's nothing important.

It may be due to Felicia didn't want Rowen to use her desperate condition.

"It's nothing much. You will know when the time comes. For now, let's discuss what do you want?" She said with an emotionless face. Her eyes were looking at Rowen. Expecting his answer.

Rowen listened to her and let out a smile. He raised his hand over the table. "I want you."

Felicia raised her eyebrows a little after listening to him. Her dignified expression broke off for a little as a questioning expression appeared on her face.

She then looked at his smile and regained her expression. "Brother Rowen wants me? I don't think I will be able to fulfil that demand of yours." She said.

Rowen's smile widened. "I just want sister Felicia's trust. I want you to invite me to your group." He said as he moved his hand a little closer to her.

This time she narrowed her eyes. She didn't expect that. Everyone knew that Dana's group although not number one now. Soon will be. As the vice sect leader was backing her.

And secondly, it will provoke her wrath. If she dared to steal her group member.

"You want me to provoke Dana? Let me tell you something. She is not someone to be messed with. I can give you any amount of money or merit points you want. However, provoking her is something out of question." Felicia explained.

She was not afraid of Dana. However, it will be very troublesome to deal with her when the only thing she currently wants to focus on is healing her mother. She wanted to negotiate with Rowen.

Rowen backed his hand away. "Sister Felicia is afraid of Sister Dana?" This time Rowen used his blood resonance on her. He wanted to join her group instead of Dana's as that way he can seduce two powerful and beautiful women.

Felecia, however, maintained her dignified demeanour on the outside. However, inside she felt something. She was really provoked by this guy's words.

As a princess of an Ascender country. Many have tried to manipulate her previously. However, this was the only time she was provoked. She wanted to take him in her group without any more conditions. Just to show him that she was not scared of Dana even a bit.

However, she was mindful of all her thoughts. She quickly identified that she was losing her composure and balanced herself. 'Where is this anger coming from?' She looked at Rowen. 'This guy is pretty sly.'

"Dana has the backing of Vice Sect leader after all." She said.

"Ok then, thanks for the generous food. However, I don't think I will be able to negotiate with you." Rowen said with Blood Resonance. And then stood up from his table. He bowed towards her and then turned back to move out.

However, just when he was about to take even a single step her voice came from behind. "Why does Brother Rowen wants to join my group? Although it is number one now. It won't be for long."

"Dana's group will be more beneficial for you," Felicia asked.

Rowen turned around and smiled. "It's just Sister Felicia looks more trustworthy than Sister Dana."

"What do you mean?" She stood up from her seat to and came side by side to him. Looking at the scenic moon and the cherry blossom trees.

"It's nothing. I just feel that you are more trustworthy." Rowen said.

His blood resonance working on her she perked her back up and then nodded. "Ok then. I invite brother Rowen to my group. In the group selection tomorrow, I hope you choose my Group."

"Ok, then Sister Felicia. I will make sure that your mission will be completed with a hundred per cent certainty." Rowen said and then raised his hand again in front of her.

Felicia listened to him and her ears perked up. She looked at him with expectations flashing in her eyes. "How can you be so sure?" She asked.

She really wanted to save her mom and if Rowen helps her, she is ready to do anything for him. Even if he asks for her life afterwards she will happily give it.

Rowen waved his hand in front of her again. She looked at his hand and then finally grabbed it with a nod. He felt her soft hand in his and then a smile formed on his face.

"You know sister Felicia. If someone put their trust in me. I can even give my life for them. And as now you have placed your faith in me. Either your mission will be done. Or I will die." Rowen said and then disappeared with a light swoosh of wind in the silver moonlight.

Felicia looked at the Moon and then stared at it for a few seconds. She could feel her heart started increasing its pace slowly. Placing her hand that Rowen touched just now over her heart a blush formed in his face.

"Idiot," She said and then a smile broke out on her dignified face.

Rowen again appeared in front of his shop and saw that it was already clean. A smile formed on his face and then he again disappeared from that spot.

He finally entered his apartment. However, just as he did so he could feel someone's presence in his hall.

"Sister Dana? How can this little one help you?" Rowen bowed in front of her.

Dana was currently sitting on the sofa. She looked at him and then stood up. She was currently wearing a white coloured skirt to her knees, with pink flower patterns on it. Her sleeveless top was also of the same design. The dress perked up all her curves.

Her black hairs were tied behind her head. She looked at Rowen with her eyes that were red from crying.

"It's about today. I want to apologise for what I did." She said with a worried look.

She has finally understood what was going on with her. She was in love with him. And the pain in her heart will only cease when she is in his company.

Her guilt has made her cry all day. And now she wanted to clear all the misunderstanding between them.

Rowen smiled internally as he switched his Blood Resonance on. "Sister Dana doesn't need to apologize. In the end, I think I was the wrong one. I was not able to make Sister Dana trust in me. I should be the one apologizing." He said and then moved towards her.

He then sat in front of her.

Dana also sat on the sofa. "Sister Dana, I am sorry, that I will not be able to offer you dinner with me. As I have already had it. However, I hope you like this." Rowen said and then took out a wine bottle from his ring.

Dana just nodded at him, as she was not interested in dinner or alcohol. What she wanted is the relation between them to form again.

Although she can't confess her love to him now as she was still the fiancee of Vice Leader. However, she can at least regain his trust again.

"No need to be courteous with me, Brother Rowen as from now on we will be on the same group. You can just call me Dana." She said with a forced smile on her face.

Rowen looked at her and almost broke out laughing. "Sigh... I have to confess something to Sister Dana." He said with a depressed expression.

"You can tell me anything. I am here to listen." She said.

"It's... It's... Just that... Lady Felicia has also invited me to her group." Rowen said and then raised his eyes to look at her expression.

Although she maintained a neutral expression. He can feel her emotions change.

Dana smiled as her heart hurt internally. Tears almost fell down of her eyes. "I think it's completely up to Brother Rowen. You should join a group that you want to be in."

Rowen smiled at her words. "I hope sister Dana is not angry at me."

"No, I am not. Even a bit. It's your choice after all." She said. Her heart was in complete turmoil right now. She just wanted to kill herself. His words were like swords that pierced her soul again and again.

She stood up hastily. She knew that if she stayed here anymore she will break down and cry in front of him. She can't let him see that she was in love with him as she still had her fiancee.

"I will leave for now. Let's meet tomorrow." She said and then was about to disappear, however, Rowen stopped her.

"Sister Dana. I really feel bad for breaking the promise. I promised to join your group however now I can't. You can take these back from me." He said and then placed the seeds of Martial Jade fruits in front of her.

He even placed his identity token out. Indicating that he wanted to pay for her vein cleansing pill and the berry.

Tears bubbled in her eyes as she disappeared from his room. "No, need." Only these words left of her.
