Chapter 275 The Mission Is a Marriage Proposal
However, Hades classified a marriage proposal to her as an S-class mission. “This is the final S-class mission. As per our agreement, you’re free to leave after completing this mission.”
Selena opened her mouth, yet no words came. Since this is a marriage proposal, the completion of the mission is naturally the success of the proposal, but I’m the intended recipient. In other words, the mission is only considered successful if I agree to his proposal, thus freeing myself from this place.
However, once I agree to his marriage proposal, I have to marry him! So, even if it’s successful, I still won’t be free of him! Sure enough, he’s Hades that he could come up with such a tactic. “You’ll go as far as proposing marriage to me just to have me stay?” Biting her lip, she gazed at him. “What’s the point?”
The corners of Hades’ mouth lifted. “You may take it however you want. Anyway, this is the final S-class mission.”
“What if I decline?” A hint of irritation swamped Selena. He’s obviously toying with me! At that thought, she shot to her feet furiously. I want to leave this dark place and be free of everything here! I want to have a normal life!
“Then, you’ll have to remain under my command.” Hades shrugged nonchalantly. In response, Selena bit her lip so hard that blood beaded. “Don’t you think this is very despicable of you?”
Hades merely chuckled without answering her. Standing up, he slowly walked over to her and used his thumb to lightly wipe off the blood on her lip. Instinctively, Selena dodged, causing him to freeze for a moment before retracting his hand.
“Boss, I beg you.” Selena’s voice turned servile and shaky. For Juniper’s sake, she didn’t mind abandoning all her dignity.
Stretching out a hand, Hades lifted her chin. As he scrutinized her face, another face seemingly flashed in his mind. Nonetheless, he promptly snapped back to reality. “Marry me. This is an order!”
Finally, Selena lifted her eyes to him. “Do you even love me?”
Hades tilted his head as though finding this question hilarious. “I only love myself.”
