Chapter 262
“The thing is, Mr. Nicholson—” Xaria said softly, “—I have heard from those senior scholars that you are well-versed in ancient healing, and you even know some kind of long-lost technique. That is why I’m here to… ask you something.”
“Ask what?” Kingsley casually commented, “Are you interested in getting into ancient healing too?”
Xaria shook her head and explained, “It is my younger brother who is a doctor. I was hoping you could teach him the ancient healing that was lost during the reign of the Empire of Qustia.”
Kingsley laughed out loud after listening to her words. “I didn’t even say yes to those seniors who wanted to be my apprentices. What makes you think I will pass the lost skills to your brother?”
“Why not?” Xaria smiled sweetly and offered in a bewitching voice, “I can give you my all…”
As she said that, she held the hem of her short suit skirt between her thumb and middle finger before she slowly lifted it up, revealing a pair of slender thighs clad in black stockings.
“Mr. Nicholson, as long as you are willing to teach my brother ancient healing, I can go back to your room with you right this instant…”
Kingsley saw that she had lifted her short skirt up to her waist, and the sexy view underneath the black stockings was completely free for him to see. He couldn’t help feeling somewhat speechless when he asked, “Miss Heart, we are in the hotel corridor. Is it alright for you to be doing this here?”
“What’s wrong?” Xaria stuck her tongue out to glide it over her red lips before she slowly undid the front buttons of the white blouse she had on.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Nicholson, I have turned off the surveillance in the corridor. No one will find out even if… you were to do it here with me…”
Kingsley’s eyes flickered to Room 603 which was not far away, and he commented solemnly, “Please have some self-respect, Miss Heart. My sister—”
Before he could finish his sentence, she suddenly rushed forward and kept his mouth tightly closed with her soft red lips. “Say you will do it,” she mumbled.
His heart skipped a beat when he took a whiff of the mild fragrance drifting from her body.
However, he forcefully pushed her away the very next second. “You are going overboard, Miss Heart.”
Her wanton gaze wavered, and she stared at him carefully for a moment before she let out a stiff smile. “My apologies, Mr. Nicholson. I’ve behaved rather rudely.”
She then quickly buttoned her shirt and smoothed out her skirt, acting as if nothing had happened.
“That was a mistake, Mr. Nicholson. I apologize.” As she spoke, she took out a business card.
“This is my business card. You can call me anytime you change your mind.”
After putting the business card in his hand, Xaria turned around and got on the elevator next to her.
Kingsley looked at the elevator’s descending numbers before he glanced at the business card in his hand. Something flashed through his eyes when he noticed something odd.
He was almost sure that Xaria was more than what she appeared to be.
Her desire came as quickly as it went away—it was as though she was completing a task.
With that, he put the business card in his pocket, and decided to find a time for Lancer to look into this strange woman.
After Xaria took the elevator down to the first floor, she came to a secluded place next to the hotel and made a phone call.
“Hello, Kami. This is Stork from Team Nightcrawler speaking. I have something important to report. I was going undercover at Jadeland Heights when I came across someone who possesses the long-lost traditional medicine technique of Qustia… Yes, I seduced him, but it didn’t work! His eyes didn’t waver one bit! I was so scared that I retreated.”
A hoarse male voice came from the other end of the phone at this moment. “Now that Boris is missing, Plan A will be temporarily put on hold. You are allowed to get closer to that person before you are given your new order. The ancient healing of the Qustia is amazing. Sooner or later, we will have special tasks to steal the knowledge. It would be great if you could get in touch with an expert in advance.”
“Yes, Kami!” Xaria replied. “I have already given him my business card. I am sure he will contact me. Don’t worry, I won’t miss the next time!”
“Good.” The rough voice sounded again. “Your seduction is unparalleled. I have confidence in you, but remember to never reveal your identity! We must not allow anything to affect the implementation of Plan A! ”
“Yes, Kami! All for the King!”
“All for the King!”
…
As Xaria, codename Stork, spoke to her superior on the phone, Kingsley had already knocked on the door to Room 603, and entered the space where Alice was in.
