Chapter 290 Plans for the future.
She looked around, observing the place where she was standing. The trees, the stream of water and the distance to the cliff, it was not an ugly place. It was not pitted or cracked like most of the grey star was. If she bought this place, then it was possible to turn it into a bee farm and eco resort. If she included most of the land going to the ocean,?she could turn it into one of those resorts in Greece that she always wanted to visit but never got a chance to.
"I think I can make this work Severus, and I need to be quick about it because if I start introducing beaches to the blue star it won\'t take long for other sharp eyed business people to see the value in owning land by the ocean, sea or lake. And like you have said the honey from these bees is important to me. Not just the honey but the tree and it\'s flowers as well."
Severus grunted and a misty smoke was emitted from his nose. Then he said, "I am happy to see that we are on the same page. Should I deliver the souls for you?"
"Thank you my ever helpful partner." She handed him the soul gourd. It would return to her naturally after he delivered the souls. "I am going to collect some honey before heading back home."
Severus blinked and he left, while she ventured into the cave, carefully, she passed through the vines, using them from leverage as she traveled through the cave. Her plan was to enter the deepest depths of the cave but she decided against it. She used her energy to scare the bees away and then she took one large honey comb. When she was finished, she poured some crystal water into the small holes close to where she took the honey comb. It was like a trade, she thought, she would provide crystal water in exchange for some of their honey.
She returned to the blue star and went through the next meeting, signed a few documents and then left the office during the lunch hour.
First, she went in search of her brother who should have been quitting work as well but it seemed as if he would not be doing so anytime soon. He was bent over some printed maps which had taken all of his attention.
"Sister," Adler said when she surprised him by popping up in his office.
"Are you still brooding?" She asked from where she stood in the entrance of the doorway leading to his office.
"I am not brooding." He responded.
He looked away from her and looked down at the maps again. The breakfast she had sent him was sitting at the furthest end of the table, open to exposure. Half of it was untouched, and as the baker who took time baking the donuts she took offense to this gross wastage of her snacks.
"You didn\'t eat." She said, with a frown and a dash of worry. "Why?"
"I am not so hungry today." He claimed.
She moved forward, and sat down in one of the chairs in his office. She made sure to sit in the chair which faced him directly.
"You are always hungry brother, not starving hungry but cannot resist sweet snacks hungry. Tell me brother, what is it that is bothering you? I am not leaving until you tell me what it is and we work through it. I told you brother, I am your protector now."
"Have you always been this inquisitive?" He looked up at her and asked. "I don\'t remember you being this nosy as a child."
"What can I say, things change." She replied. "I know this has something to do with Amara and since I am the only one in the family who knows about your little secret, I am willing to listen again, so tell me."
"It\'s no big deal, just instruct the castle guards to stop allowing Amara to come into the castle. She is using her RGB identity carelessly, it\'s a crime. Oh, this might be quite tricky but I wonder if your husband could use some of his influence to get her sent back to the capital."
Scarlet bit her bottom lip and leaned her body against the armrest of the chair as she internalized this new information.
"You are not getting back together with her." She said slowly.
"Not in this life time." He replied through gritted teeth. "Or any other I hope." He added.
She wondered when it had become this bad for him to go from choosing her to disliking her to a point of intolerance.
She had a nasty attitude for sure, especially because flipped them both off on Christmas night. She had been tolerating her of Adler but since that was not the case anymore, it was time to say adios to Amara.
"I will speak to the empress, given the uneasy relationship between the mecha warriors and the RGB, I don\'t think they will want to assist Esong in any way. Don\'t force yourself to meet her if you don\'t want to brother, your happiness should be your only priority. Go with the woman who makes you feel at ease, this is why I asked you if Amara made your heart beat because of love or fear. I knew that as my brother you would not settle with a woman of such nasty character."
"I appreciate your help my mighty protector," he finally smiled for the first time since she entered his office.
She got on her feet, looked at the time on one of the four clocks on his wall whose purpose she did not know and then she said, "Now that you are smiling, I will be leaving. I won\'t be sending you lunch since you wasted my breakfast." She pointed at the half eaten donut and it\'s two companions that had been wasted.
"Sorry, I will warm them up and eat them later. Thank you for passing by my dear sister " She left as he wrapped them up and kept them away in his storage bracelet.
