Just an enemy, don't kneel down and confess your feelings in front of me

"You want me to pledge my loyalty to you?"

"of course."

Ryan admitted it directly without any twists and turns.

"You're all just being someone's dog anyway, so why not just be my lackey instead of the Pope?"

"Besides other things, the treatment here is much better than that in the Vatican."

"As long as you become my lackey, I can give you whatever you want, whether it's wealth or status, and I won't ask you to sacrifice anything, especially your innocence."

That sounds like a good idea?

After all, the Pope didn't give her much.

Although she was tasked with taking over the August family's assets, once she succeeded, both August's assets and her own wealth would belong to the Holy See.

The task given to her by the Pope was mandatory. She had to capture Ryan, and the Pope didn't care even if it meant sacrificing her own innocence.

But for Ryan, these are naturally not a problem.

Ryan wouldn't be that stingy, at least the Ryan Hela knew wouldn't be that stingy.

only…

"Give me some time to think about it..."

Hela said hesitantly.

"What else is there to think about?"

Ryan chuckled.

"You won't forget what your Pope said to you when you accepted the mission, right?"

"Although you consider yourself a subordinate, she clearly treats you as a lackey. Not only is she harsh on you, but she also wants you to work for free. How can you tolerate this?"

Hearing Ryan's words, Hela was shocked again.

Why does this person know everything!

Although Ryan did not say everything, his few words were the Pope's original words!

How did he know something that only he and the Pope knew?

Thinking back to the extremely secret information Ryan just said...

this moment.

Hela's heart was filled with shock.

She really couldn't figure out how Ryan got hold of such secret information.

This is almost impossible!

In contrast, Ryan knew everything about them, but they knew nothing about Ryan.

Not to mention Ryan's ridiculously powerful intelligence system, they don't even know Ryan's true character!

How to deal with this!

think carefully.

Even though Ryan knew everything, he still allowed people from the Vatican to contact him.

Be it Hela herself, Iris, or even the Pope...

Ryan accepted all of them, not only did he not resist, but he also happily accepted their approach...

What exactly does Ryan want to do?

Thinking hard!

There is really no chance of winning against such a person!

If I continue to be an enemy of Ryan, I'm afraid I won't even know how I died.

Instead of resisting to the end, why not pretend to obey Ryan first, and then find a way to deal with him after getting to know Ryan little by little?

just.

Even with this thought in mind, Hela could not accept the result of being a dog.

She had to improve her status a little bit, so that she could have a certain degree of autonomy and say next to Ryan.

then.

Hela compromised.

"I, I give in."

Hela sighed and gave in helplessly.

"Being a running dog or something like that is really unacceptable. This is really... too humiliating."

"However, I am willing to be your subordinate, helping you manage your business, and even helping you investigate the movements and intelligence of the Holy See. What do you think?"

This was the biggest compromise and concession Hela could accept.

For someone as proud as her, it is remarkable that she would voluntarily serve as someone else's subordinate, especially when she succumbs to threats and bullying.

but.

For Ryan, that's not enough!

The moment Ryan heard Hela's words of concession, he knew that his first stage of tulle was almost successful.

Although she has not completely surrendered herself, she has already developed a fear of herself in her heart and has subconsciously put her in her place.

In this case, further punishment can naturally proceed smoothly.

In the punishment behind the veil, Ryan wanted to break down her defenses in one fell swoop, knock her pride down into the dust, and make her listen to him obediently.

then.

Ryan pinched her cheek and said with a smile,

"It's just that my subordinates don't seem to be able to do it."

"It's not that I absolutely want you to be my lackey, but you also know that the identities of subordinate and lackey have different levels of intimacy with me, so my attitude towards them will naturally be different."

"If you're just a lackey, you don't have to pay back any debts you owe me. After all, you're definitely one of my own."

"But if it's just a subordinate, then the debt must be repaid."

In debt?

What is this?

When did I owe you money?

Hela's eyes were a little confused, and this continued until Ryan took out the contract.

“This, this, this, this…”

Looking at the contract, Hela didn't know what to say for a moment.

This looks like a contract, but in fact it is her humiliation!

She, known by many as the Queen of Business, had been schemed against from the very beginning, and in the area of ​​contracts, which was her specialty...

This was a huge blow to her.

But compared to this, she was more worried about what would happen to her next.

There is no doubt that Ryan will use this contract to restrict himself and force himself to do things he doesn't want to do.

And myself...

Hela knew that she had no other options.

She was very clear about the power of the contract. It was a contract witnessed by God. Although there was no God's gaze, it carried God's power to ensure that the person who signed the contract would not breach the contract.

Even if Hela wanted to break the contract, she couldn't. The power of this contract would force her to act according to Ryan's wishes...

"Since we are all family now, this thing is not important, right?"

Hela laughed dryly and spoke cautiously.

"What do you think?"

Ryan said with a smile.

Although his smile was normal, Hela still saw the determination in it that required him to fulfill the contract.

You are a devil!

Hela complained in her heart, her thoughts racing.

Think about it quickly, what other options do you have?

When it comes to contracts, I am the professional!

As long as you want to find it, you will definitely find a loophole!

"By the way, if you want me to fulfill the contract, you have to pay me back first!"

Hela said excitedly, thinking she had found a reasonable loophole.

"No, that's not how the contract was signed."

Ryan pointed to the clauses above and said to Hela,

"Look carefully, these treaties stipulate matters other than repayment."

The content of the contract was that in addition to the debt agreement, Hela could ask Rosalia to help her with things.

But as a condition, Hella had to return something to Rosalia.

And considering what Hela had forced Rosalia to do before...

Against Rosalia's wishes, she was forced to collect information about Ryan and help deal with him. Especially the last time she was asked to deal with Ryan, she might have received a huge sum of money.

To put it in perspective, what she needs to pay back to Rosalia must be a sky-high price.

When signing the contract, Ryan used some word games on these terms and successfully deceived Hela.

After carefully reading these terms many times, Hela's face darkened.

It’s over!

Why didn’t I check carefully at that time!

At the beginning, she thought she was a professional, while Rosalia was an amateur. She did not check the terms of the contract carefully at all, which led to her miserable end.

If I had checked carefully at the beginning, I wouldn't be in such a miserable situation now.

Of course, she thought so.

But then.

She thought of a loophole in Ryan's words.

"This contract was signed between me and Madam Rosalia. Even if I have to fulfill the contract, it is to Madam Rosalia. What does it have to do with you?"

"The contract doesn't recognize what you asked me to do!"

Whatever you want to do, you can't do it!

"I have an explanation for this as well."

Ryan took out a new contract and placed it in front of Hela.

The content of the contract was very simple. It basically meant that Rosalia gave Ryan the right to fulfill Hela's equal obligations, and all Ryan had to pay was a copper coin.

Now, under the effect of the contract, Hela had to listen to Ryan.

"you you…"

Hela didn't expect that Ryan could even prepare this. She bit her lip and looked at Ryan, her heart sinking completely.

Seeing that she could not escape her fate, Hela simply threatened,

"If you insist that I fulfill the contract, I will ask Madam Rosalia for the money I owe!"

"Mrs. Rosalia definitely won't be able to pay back that much money. When the time comes, she'll be even more unlucky than me!"

She just didn't believe that Ryan would be willing to help Rosalia pay back the money.
