Chapter 1011 A Test An hour later.
The car had finally arrived as Theo came out with the driver opening his door. Since he was going to bring Isaac's luggage inside the car, of course, the driver needed to go out.
Meanwhile, Theo raised his head and waved his hand, calling Felix.
In that instant, Felix appeared and nodded his head.
"How is it?"
"There are 11 people. I have thrown them somewhere else, but since I don't know what I should do, I just make them sleep for now," Felix explained what he did earlier. "I don't want to bring trouble to you."
"You pass." Theo patted his shoulder as though he had expected this outcome.
"Huh?" Felix was confused by Theo's words before realizing the entire setup was a test from him. "So, the reason you didn't pick up my call…"
"Sorry, I had to do it." Theo apologized properly and explained why he did it. "I want a comrade, not a slave or a robot. I want people who can think by themselves while still following my order.
"We are humans, so of course, we have desires. What if there's a guy who annihilated your entire family in the past standing in front of you? What if I told you not to do anything?
"I'm sure you don't like it, and I will also have bad taste in my mouth. That's why instead of you following my order like a robot, I want you to think about my order yourself and follow it."
"I see." Felix let out a sigh of relief. He just realized he had underestimated the man before him. Although Theo was young, he had considered everything from his heart and satisfaction.
It was fine for him to express the idea in his mind because his boss would consider it seriously.
Theo patted his shoulder a few times and walked away. "Anyway, I'm going to get Isaac out of the house. You can go back with me in the car."
"Okay." Felix acknowledged his words and stood next to the car while watching the surroundings, making sure there were no more hidden threats. But before Theo left, he asked one last question. "What should I do to them?"
"What will you do if the one in this house is Millie? That's the relationship I wish to have in my group." Theo waved his hand as he continued forward.
It seemed Theo had totally predicted this outcome from the start.
'What kind of monster do I follow?' Felix shook his head helplessly and disappeared, planning to kill those eleven people and destroy any evidence.
Meanwhile, Theo knocked on the door a few times before shouting, "Isaac. I'm here!"
As if he had been preparing everything when Theo was talking to Felix, Isaac immediately opened the door with all his baggage. "I'm ready."
*Pant!*
*Pant!*
Isaac seemed to have lost more than twenty pounds. His face looked pale, and a huge black bag was visible under his eyes.
It was clear what kind of excitement he had the moment he heard Theo's voice.
"Are you alright?" Theo asked with a worried tone.
"This is the best time in my life. Let's go." Isaac replied as if he wanted to leave the house so much.
"Is that so?" Theo chuckled and pointed at the car outside. "Let's go then."
"Mhm." He furiously nodded and carried all his luggage by himself despite the driver offering his help. It seemed Isaac didn't want to waste any more seconds in this place.
After getting all his luggage to the car, he finally entered the car with Theo and Felix before leaving this place.
He didn't pay attention to Felix earlier, but when he entered the car and felt safe enough, he finally looked around, finding this middle-aged man.
In that instant, the mood turned awkward as he scratched the back of his head while introducing himself. "Hello, Sir. My name is Isaac Walton."
Felix nodded with a grim face, observing Isaac's condition. "Felix Holt."
"Ehm… Did I make a mistake? I'm sorry if that's the case. Please let me go for now." Isaac felt a bit intimidated by Felix's calm face.
Felix always put on this kind of face for the past two years, so Isaac completely misunderstood him. He thought Felix was observing him while trying to disagree with Theo's decision in bringing him over.
Amused by Isaac's reaction, Theo couldn't help but tease him. "He told me that there wouldn't be any problem as long as you're not looking at his daughter with any vulgar intention."
"W-what?!" Isaac dropped his jaw to the ground, taken aback.
"Well, I can guarantee your life." Theo waved his hand nonchalantly to calm him down but still added, "Though, I can't guarantee your little brother's life."
"Huh? Little brother? I'm an orphan and the sole kid in the family… I don't have little—" He suddenly stopped as he finally understood what Theo truly meant. Isaac's face became pale as he immediately used both hands to cover his crotch while stating, "Don't worry, Sir. My blessing comes from Isaac Newton. I love knowledge more than women! I'd rather marry a book than a woman!"
Theo couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha, you're great!"
Even Felix shook his head helplessly, disappointed with this man.
"Wait, you…" Isaac pointed at Theo. "You lied to me."
"No way. I told you in the past. I never lied to you." Theo replied with a playful tone. "Anyway, you should get some sleep first. I know you're exhausted."
Isaac wanted to say another thing but had no reason to refuse his offer. He was truly exhausted after experiencing all the harassment.
"I… I guess I will get some rest." Isaac looked away and fell silent.
In just a single blink of an eye, Isaac fell asleep.
'So fast… I guess it was too much for him,' Theo thought while looking at Felix, asking, "Did he disappoint you, Felix?"
"A bit. I still don't understand why you want him."
"His situation is similar to your daughter."
"Hmm? The sickness… No." Felix furrowed his eyebrows, noticing what Theo truly wanted from Isaac. It was his unique ability.
