"That is the reason, that I am going to be a ------"

Before I could speak any further, Ebony entered as she called out to me "young Boss, the meeting has been arranged they are waiting at the inn."

"Okay, let's go,"

I said as I walked out of the room with Ebony, dad followed me too. 

"By the way, Ebony, why do every other meeting be held at the same damn inn."

"I don't know boss, but it is kind of annoying since I get hungry by just sitting at the inn's restaurant."

I looked at her quickly as I said "I totally understand what you mean!"

"Their fried chicken is pretty good though."

"Really? why didn't you tell me that earlier, we will try it today. Ah, by the way, give me a report on which member of Esser family has come to attend the meeting."

"Son of the Esser family, he is around 25 years old or something." 

"I see."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"They are surely making us wait." said a particular man who was in his mid-twenties. Well, he was exactly in his mid-twenty being the age twenty-five.

His tone was irritated since according to him, he has been waiting for someone that shouldn't even make him wait in the first place. 

"Calm down, Helm. We were the ones who called them for a meeting without even giving them time, so all we can do is wait patiently."

said her younger sister, being the more sensible one she didn't show any sign of irritation which was contrary to his older brother, Helm.

"We are the Esser family our name should be enough of a reason for them to not make us wait for even a second. They should be the ones who should arrive first, ten minutes before the assigned time, and wait for us."

"Calm down, Helm." said her younger sister, her name was Kirsa. 

Helm looked at the third person who was seated on the table, she had scarlet red eyes with bright red hair, looking at her Helm said "Grandma would you do something about them if they feel to meet my expectation?"

"I would do anything for my little Helm!" 

Despite Helm calling her grandma, there was no sign of old age on the woman's appearance as a whole.

"If they don't agree to my deal then----"

Before Helm could complete his sentence, he noticed that a bunch of people entered the inn and among them, he recognized two people. 

One is Ebony, he recognizes her as the sub-leader of the House Lenton and another person he had recognized was Ranulf Hoffmann.

"What is he doing --- is he the leader of House Lenton?  if yes, then I would very much like to put a leash on a Hoffmann." 

Eventually Grey and everyone climbed up the stairs. Around the big table, there were around seven seats remaining. 

Grey walked in front of everyone, before taking a seat at the center of the table. The seat is directly opposite Helm's seat.

"Kid that seat is reserved for the leader of the organization, take some other seat and let Mr. Hoffmann be seated on that seat."

Grey placed both of his hands on the table, before resting his chin on the support of his hand. A smirk curved up Grey's face as he said "Leader? that would be me and also, I am Hoffmann too. I am here since you wanted to hold a meeting with me."

Helm first stared at Grey for a good second before bursting into a laugh, "Nice jokes kid!! I like you! I like you!!"

"My pleasure that I have improved your mood since it looked like you stepped on crap or something when I first entered this room." 

Helm didn't get offended by what Grey said, he wiped his tears from laughter as he said "Okay enough of the jokes, Let your dad sit on the chair since I wanted to talk with the real leader."

Before Grey could say anything, Ranulf opened his mouth saying "My son is the leader, he formed this organization. I have no relation with the organization."

Ebony agreed with him saying "That's right, Grey is our leader, so I don't want anyone to disrespect my leader in front of me."

"Interesting." said Helm, a vile smile spread across his face as he said, "I don't know how this brat got the position of leader, most probably you used your dad's power but very well, I will entertain you."

Gray raised his hand and simultaneously he stopped Ebony to take any step closer to Helm. At first, Helm didn't realize why Grey raised his hand, but as he looked around, he saw that there were many people who stood up from their table ready to draw their blade. 

Raising his hand, Grey said, "It's nothing, everyone sit down and enjoys your food."

Upon hearing Grey's word, everyone sat down as they put their blade back in their sheath. Everyone sat down except for Ermic, he was still standing with his blade out. 

"Ermic, sit down and put your blade away."

"But, master he disrespected you!!" 

Grey chuckled as he said "He just called me a brat, but the only person who is acting like a brat is ----" Grey didn't complete his sentence purposefully. 

Ermic laughed as he said, "You are right, I got overworked for nothing."

"Now sit down and enjoy your food, I heard that the fried chicken is very delicious here. Finish up your food, or else I will disown you."

"Very well, I will eat this food till my heart is content!!!"

Grey turned his attention towards Helm as he said "Now let's get back to the main topic, so what is that you called this meeting for? you aren't going to waste my time with more useless talk, are you?" 

Helm's anger was apparent from his facial expression, his veins could be seen popping out of his forehead. Maybe he was speechless that he didn't want to speak anything, but in his stead, his little sister spoke.

"Apologies for an ugly show by the Esser family, I deeply apologize."

Grey waved his hands as he said, "no-no there is no need to apologise,"

"Without wasting any more of your time, I will get back to the thing that we came here for. We actually wanted to talk about new clothing lines that were in development by the House Lenton. We heard the news about it and I felt like it was an excellent idea, so I wanted to ask if it was possible that Esser would get some share of the business. 

Of course, not for free. We will provide financial and physical support for the company to work since I am deeply in love with the idea and we just want a reasonable share of the company based on the help we are providing."

Kirsa bowed her head slightly as she said,  "I would be grateful if you would consider this proposition by me" 

Grey's facial expression showed a hint of shock, before his lips curved into a tender smile, "I am really happy that someone is interested in my idea! and I also love the fact that you are so passionate about this project. I would love to include you in this project but before that can you tell me, what exactly did you like about this project?" 

"Actually, ever since I was little I always wondered how stupid rich people are. I mean they sometimes buy stupidly pricey things just to show the fact that they are rich. But I could also understand it from the rich's perspective since there is a pleasure owning exotic things that others don't. 

And I absolutely loved this idea of selling stupidly high-quality clothes and other things at a stupidly high price to rich, I loved the idea of making a brand that would signify richness, I loved this idea from a commoner and rich point of view."

Grey's facial showed even more of a shock before a wide smile took over his lips as he said "I would love to work with you! if the shared percent and our deal match up, it will be excellent for our brand to have a person like you!"

Kirsa clapped her hands together as she said, "Here is my deal, we would provide ----"

But before Kirsa could complete her sentence, Helm interrupted saying "Here is the deal, you will get to work under the Esser family, but you will have to hand over your brand to us and also hand over your House Lenton to us. We will give you a reasonable share and you will leave the rest to us. We will make the brand successful and you will follow our every order since you will be working under me."

Grey didn't get pissed off, he just laughed as he said "Sorry, but I don't go around handing over my things to others.. I am not much of a charitable guy, to be honest."
