I'm really a serious wizard.

Chapter 75: Have a Drink with Me (Please Order First)
Elena's appearance and her excuse for the head of the consortium successfully brought the negotiation situation back to the beginning.

The reason why negotiation is negotiation is that both parties tacitly agree not to use force and only greet each other with their mouths.

Whether one can gain the upper hand and gain benefits depends entirely on whether the negotiator has magnanimity.

But at this moment, everyone in the office realized one thing,
That is, the rules of negotiation no longer seem to apply.

Feeling the heaviness in his heart, Ron's body trembled unconsciously, and he felt that the carefree Olivia seemed to have turned into a giant dragon.

That was the rage of the fire element, the fury of the wind element, and the ferocity of the thunder element.

They gathered at one point and spread outward with Olivia as the center. Space seemed to be frozen at this moment. Everything was quiet, like the calm before the storm.

Ron could even feel that the Holy Light Element, acting as a good guy, was constantly advising the three elemental companions to stay calm and not resort to violence.

But they were all ignored by the three irritable elements, without any respect at all.

It's okay, keep trying! — Faintly, the lost Holy Light Element seemed to hear Ron comforting himself.

"Elena Isabella, are you sure you want to be my enemy?"

Her amber eyes turned cold, and the brunette's voice was stilted, as if she were talking to a stranger.

Olivia couldn't stand seeing her best friend, who she used to talk to about everything, become so depraved.

She thought she had treated Elena with all her heart, but this shameless person betrayed her time and time again.

The first betrayal was when she was a child. Elena betrayed her by secretly tasting fine wine, and she was scolded by the teacher all night.

The second betrayal was after the teacher's death. Elena ignored her pleading and let go of her hatred, leaving her alone to face the turbulent crisis.

And this is the third time!

This is not just a matter of position. Even though Elena abandoned her, Olivia still regards her as her best friend.

But this time, this guy was just like before, only caring about himself and never thinking about others.

He also said that there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests, which is such a hurtful statement.

If that's the case, then what does what she is doing now count for?
The purpose of seizing the alchemical creation was to obtain more information and give an explanation to this good friend.

She was almost winning, but Elena stabbed her without mercy, stood with the enemy with a smile, and humiliated her wantonly.

The Baroness lowered her eyes, still looking shameless, as if she wanted to make an excuse.

"Olivia, you don't understand."

Snapped--

A crisp slap made Elena's cheek swollen. She looked at her friend who was full of disappointment in her and suppressed her hatred and anger, and sighed in her heart.

Don't blame me, Olivia. You're working hard to find the truth, and so am I.
The Baroness pursed her lips and avoided looking at her friend.

She felt sorry for everyone, sorry for her gentle and kind mother, and sorry for Olivia who had always wanted to protect her.

Sometimes, when facing her, Elena always wanted to shout out, shouting, "I am the witch you hate, and I was the one who killed your teacher with my own hands."

But, she didn't dare.

She didn't dare to see Olivia heartbroken, didn't dare to see how lost and disappointed she would be after finding out that she had been deceived, and she didn't dare to face the painful memory in her mind.

But it was so real and perfect that it left Elena speechless. She could only rely on her emotions and instinctively believe that she didn't do any of this.

Olivia's amber eyes were introverted, and she couldn't understand why Elena seemed like a different person.

Talking to her now is full of trickery and deception.

The black-haired woman pointed to the oak door and said expressionlessly:
"Elena, if all this is your little trick just to see me in such a mess, then you win."

"Now, get out of here, I don't want to see you!" After a silent eye contact, Elena finally lowered her head and hurriedly left the office.

"As for you"

Olivia withdrew her gaze from the Baroness's back and looked at Charles straight in the eye for the first time.

Charles was trembling with fear at this moment and didn't dare to say a word.

In this office, Olivia suddenly became the one who had the final say.

"I don't know what you used to bribe that bitch, maybe it was status, or maybe it was money, but it doesn't matter anymore."

"I negotiated with you out of respect for the consortium, but now I don't want to give you face."

"That's it. Stay and I'll provide you with food and lodging, and I won't pursue the matter of you offending me."

stay?
At this moment, Charles felt like a commodity waiting to be sold, and cried out in his heart that he was wronged.

He had not bribed the Baroness who had been playing tricks on him for a week. Who knew that she would suddenly come out to testify?
Charles was originally quite happy, but he didn't expect that Elena's arrival was just adding fuel to the fire.

You just walked away, what should I do?

Suddenly, Charles had a flash of inspiration and seemed to have thought of something.

Elena Mark suddenly appeared. Could it be that she was playing a double act with these guys to blackmail an honest man like me?

His eyes quickly swept over Ron, who was pretending to be stupid, and Olivia, who was making unreasonable demands, and he became more and more certain of this guess.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain the Baroness's motives.

It must have been that golden-haired kid’s idea. This guy is so evil!

"Your Highness Olivia, I am willing to spend 30 million Golden Lions to redeem the consortium's alchemical creation!"

The head of the consortium could only swallow his anger.

Hearing this, Olivia remained unmoved, and her beautiful fox eyes stared coldly at Charles.

"Fifty million! Plus a copy of the consortium's records of exploring the 'deep' behind the high walls near the old capital."

Hearing this, her amber eyes seemed dazed, and in the end Olivia waved her hand, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Charles, on the other hand, was as if pardoned. He quickly rushed out of the office and politely closed the door behind him, no longer looking like a cunning businessman as he did at the beginning.

Is this the legend?

The president looks so handsome when he's serious.
Ron, who witnessed everything, sighed in his heart that if he had this ability, he could probably help a hundred old ladies cross the road at the same time in one second.

"Ron, do you think I did the right thing?"

Olivia stared at the night sky with blurry eyes, her voice soft and weak.

"What?" The boy tilted his head.

"I meant that I agreed to the consortium's conditions and let that alchemical creature go. After all, you played a role in capturing her."

"So I wanted to ask for your opinion."

My opinion?

The blond boy was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a smile:
"Everyone is responsible for their own actions. You are the president and you have the final say."

You can speak some human language. With your mouth and looks, I wonder how many girls you will charm when you grow up.
Olivia curled her lips inwardly, walked around to the wine cabinet in the corner of the office, took out two bottles of unlabeled homemade mead, and ordered:

"Have a drink with me."
