Chapter 262 Final S-Class Mission
“Don’t forget what you said. As long as you finish this perfectly, you’ll be let off the hook.” Hades’ ear stud gleamed cunningly, just like his eyes, and his smile made Selena shiver. “Yes, but this is the final S-class. Deal?”
“Yes, it is.” “How should I trust you?” Selena was no fool, for she knew Hades was a capricious man; he could be jolly one moment, but a furious demon the next. By now, Selena knew Hades to be an illogical and irrational person, as well as an oddity. That was how Selena saw him.
“So what if you don’t trust me?” His reply made her heart sink. He’s playing me for a fool! But he’s right. So what if I don’t trust him? What can I do even if he reneges on the promise again? He could make and break me. This man’s truly a demon. Selena bit her lip, almost drawing blood, but all she could do was stare at him. She couldn’t do anything else.
“This is the last one.” Hades took off his ring and put it on the table.
Selena knew that ring; it was Hades’ symbol. Now, he was using the ring as collateral. If he would break the promise once again, he would never take the ring back.
“Alright.” Selena took the ring and left without saying another word. When she went downstairs, Selena took Juniper and left without saying goodbye to her colleagues.
When everyone had seen her off, Hades came down. “Did you fight, boss?” Joshua asked. “Why didn’t you tell her you helped her escape when she was in Astoria? She probably doesn’t know it yet.”
“Time for an S-class mission.” Hades’ gaze darkened.
Everyone started becoming nervous, for it had been a long while since they had an S-class mission. They stood straight, waiting for the command, but Hades didn’t speak for a long while. When everyone was starting to look at one another in confusion, he blurted, “Prepare for the proposal.”
