Face-Slapping System

Chapter 213  Martin's Hesitation

Agatha stated that the problem was already resolved.

Roland waited for a bit, and indeed, at the next second, one of the guard's phones suddenly rang, startling the five of them at the same time.

He immediately took out his phone in a startled manner. He pressed the answer button with trembling fingers as he saw the name of the caller. At that moment, he realized that they fucked up.

Seeing the man's action, Roland finally expressed his gratitude to Agatha once again as he hung up the phone while waiting for the System notification to show up.

Right now, the five guards huddled together even more closely. Their ears paying attention to the voice that was speaking over the phone. If it was not their boss, who could it be?

Roland saw the five of them wiping their sweats one by one. Each of their heads also kept on nodding as they listened intently to their boss.

As they ignored Roland, and the two women, the three of them also ignored them in return as they conversed on their. Well, the conversation was mainly Stacey stating her dissatisfaction towards the five guards.

A moment later, Roland finally heard the long-awaited 'ding' sound.

Without wasting any more time, Roland hurriedly checked the content of the System screen.

All in all, Roland earned a total of 200 Face-Slapping points. Fifty of them came from face-slapping five people while the remaining 150 was earned from the six witnesses repeated five times.

Roland was already satisfied with this kind of  'income'. After all, it was only the start of the day and he already earned 200 face-slapping points. This amount could already allow him to buy a lot of recipes in the System store.

Speaking of the System store, Roland recalled that there seemed to be new items displayed there now after the event last night. He planned to check them later.

As of this moment, one of the guards finally pocketed the phone signifying the end of the call- or rather, the lecture.

The five of them had wry and obviously scared expressions on their faces. At this moment, none of them knew what to say next.

They had repeatedly tried to drive away the owner of the place, how could they not feel afraid of what was to come next? Even now, they were still unable to speak due to their fear of the outcome. They could only lower their head down, probably ashamed of their actions from before.

Seeing them act like that, Roland could only shake his head.

He waved his hand and told them to remember their faces from now on. Roland also gives them a gentle reminder not to come up with conclusions too fast. As for whether they would heed his advice, that was no longer Roland's problem. In truth, he even hoped that they would come towards him again so that he could earn another batch of face-slapping points.

Anyways, after that tiny affair, Roland and the two women went back to Pure Dew Villa.

Along the way, they talked about how ugly the expressions of the three guard's were.

"To be honest, it was kind of an amazing feeling seeing them get that reaction after they treated us that way," Janine commented on the side.

Roland smiled silently. He knew exactly what Janine was talking about.

This was the thrill about face-slapping. The satisfaction that you would get after each face-slap was very addicting. It was just unfortunate that he could not plan them in advance, else, it would have a different thrill than the current one where Roland seemed passive and was just constantly waiting to be looked down upon by others.

Stacey also shared her own thoughts regarding the matter. Ever since she had started seeing Roland, she would more or less experience something like this. In fact, she had almost gone numb for such things.

As for her outburst earlier, it was all due to the fact that the five guards did not bother about their explanation at all but instead went on to label them as just 'passerby' who got lost in the area.

After a while, the three of them finally returned to Pure Dew Villa.

As usual, Butler Frank, and Housekeeper Stella were there to receive them. Beside them were maids who were holding some towels to wipe their sweats off. They then handed each one to Roland and Stacey, while Janine directly took one from one of the maids.

Roland and Stacey then went upstairs to take a shower. Janine looked at them with envy in her eyes before she moved towards the Housekeeper Stella finally dismissed the maids. The maids bowed their heads before leaving. Their life inside the villa was the best of bathroom on the first floor as well.

After their figure left everyone's view, Butler Frank and Housekeeper Stella finally dismissed the maids. The maids bowed their heads before leaving. Their life inside the villa was the best of what they had experienced in their working career.

Their boss, Roland, was carefree and didn't scold them. He was very lenient and if any of them made any mistakes, Roland would just tell them to be careful and to do it right next time. Unlike other 'boss' or masters, they would even be able to eat delicious food prepared by the head chief himself. And as long as they did chores, they would be free for the entire day.

If this was not heaven for the maids, then what was?

On the other hand, Roland and Stacey finally arrived at the shower inside the master's bedroom.

As usual, the two of them took a shower at the same time. Of course, a shower won't be complete if the two of them did not have some steamy moments inside. This was already part of their daily routine, and without it, they would feel empty inside. Perhaps, this was how new couples would act if both the boy and the girl experienced sex for the first time with each other.

After their steamy session ended, the two of them went down. Stacey in her manager uniform and Roland with his usual plain shirt and plain jeans.

Butler Frank then led the two of them to the dining table where Chief Gordon and the other workers were already waiting. Gordon prepared a lot of meals again this time with the help of his many assistant.

They served everyone a dish, as everyone proceeded to eat after Roland took the first chew.

While eating, Butler Frank decided to report to Roland the situation of what he had observed so far.

"Master Roland, the helipad is already about to be finished. If the time is right, it should be ready by Friday," he reported.

Roland nodded his head. The helicopter would arrive this Saturday, so even if the estimate was not correct, they would still have a day as allowance to correct the mistake.

"As for the matter regarding your plans with Mr. Martin, it is still not bearing fruit as it seems that his trusted person doesn't see any value in investing in the Sparkling Buds at this moment," he continued.

Roland released a small frown after hearing that. He and Martin had already basically established an agreement before that they would establish a branch of Sparkling Buds in Brine City. At that time, he even said that they would directly create three Sparkling Buds at the same time.

As it was already determined, Roland handed the following transactions to Butler Frank. However, he did not expect that there would be trouble now.

According to their deal, Roland and Martin would both share the cost and expenses together. The profits would also be divided 50-50, a fair deal, or perhaps, one that was very favorable to Martin.

"Can you explain more details?" Roland asked as he continued to eat his third serving of the morning.

Butler Frank nodded his head, "Naturally, Master Roland."

"When, I contacted Mr. Martin, we immediately discussed the dealings that the two of you had talked about. However, at that time, there seemed to be another person beside him who was adamant about the two of you working together in this kind of deal…"

Roland listened to Butler Frank intently and concluded that the person beside Martin was obviously a fool.

In conclusion, the reason why the deal has not made breakthrough yet is because that person was advising Martin out of it. He said that it was not profitable and that Martin might incur some losses if he continued with the dealings.

Roland guessed that it must be Martin's advisor.

Obviously, because of the advisor's persuasion, Martin was beginning to doubt his choices, hence the reason why the deal was not sealed yet even though a few days had already passed.

Roland could only shake his head. He kind of like that guy Martin. However, he did not think that he would be easily persuaded by other people after his confident words back them. To be honest, Roland was dissatisfied a little with his actions.

"Alright, tell them that we will give them two days to decide. If they can't decide until then, then just let them be. We'll just wait and see their regret in the future."
