After the sound of laughter subsided, Venus greeted the man kindly. “Goodnight, Mr. Handerson,” he said politely.

“This Mr and Mrs Roland,” Chester re-introduces another couple on Venus.

There were three other elderly couples in the room. They were all Chester's business associates. After everything had gathered, the host, Stephen Lawrence, appeared with his wife and son. They talked for a while. His son Oscar has not been able to take his eyes off Venus since they were introduced. Unfortunately, they are the only ones who are the younger generation among the parents. Inevitably, Venus had to be patient to talk to the young man.

After a boring dinner, finally the women can sit quietly on the balcony above the residence. They gave a glance towards the sparkling city below. The gossip began to sound. Venus, who knows no one, can only listen, laugh or blush in shame for the slovenly jokes they occasionally throw.

“Venus, just this time Moriarty took you out. I thought, he would never want to join again in an event like this, since his wife died.” Someone started targeting Venus as a target for jokes and gossip.

“Be careful, Barbara. Mr. Moriarty is not someone you can gossip about!” friend warned.

“Yes! He's a Great General. Don't you dare talk nonsense!”

“The gossip is if we talk behind someone. Anyway, I just wanted to ask him. Where he's been hidden Mr. Moriarty.” Mrs Barbara is kinkling.

“I'm only at residence. Sometimes abroad. Sometimes take part in the field with other teams.” Venus answered that question.

“What? Serving with the team?” Madam Barbara was silent.

“Tak wonder your body is so good. Well-trained body,” compliment one of the mistress.

“Well, now you've lost the gossip material after finding out that he's part of Mr. Moriarty's army. No wonder he never joined us.” A mistress was satisfied to see Barbara not warting.

“How can you come today?’ Others are fishing for information.

“We are not currently on duty. Dad and I are at home and there's this invitation. And I don't mind accompanying her this time,” replied Venus politely.

“Mr Moriarty is very lucky to have you as his supporter,” praise others no less polite.

Venus just smiles. If not for wanting to be known to the upper class, he was most lazy to make small talk like this. Like before, every time you go to dinner to Grandpa Hugo's. He doesn't like anyone in the Von Amstel family, except Sandrina. They were all fakes in his eyes.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, they were preparing to return.

“Mr Moriarty, may I pay a visit to your residence tomorrow?” Oscar Lawrence didn't miss a chance to get close to Venus.

“Honey once, Oscar, tomorrow me and Venus will be gone for some time.” Chester found an excuse to reject the young man.

“Sweetest. Hopefully we can meet again next time.” Oscar did not hide his disappointment at the rejection.

In the car to go home.

“Aren't you being too mean to Oscar?” Venus Criticism.

“Why? Do you like it?” ask Chester.

“No! It's just, I don't want your business with her father to be disturbed because you're too protective of me,” replied Venus.

“He's a man's eye basket. Once I give her a chance, she will find another way to come and bother you again!” ujara Chester's.

“And about my business with his father, there's no need for you to worry. They're the ones who need me here,” he said confidently.

“Alright, thank you.” Venus rests her back on the car seat. He was very tired today.

“Did those mistresses make you trouble?” chester asked attentively.

“Good answer!” praise Chester. “They will not dare any more assortment.” The man chuckled small. He seems to be excited about the idea of Venus.

“Oh yes, next week the team will train on the island. If you want to come ...”

Venus was asleep in her place. Chester could only shake. “Do you play until you are exhausted?” haru whisper.

When the car got home, Venus did not wake up. Chester lifted him into the room and enveloped him. Then get out again. The driver driving Venus was called to the sitting room.

“Venus is very exhausted. Where did you go this afternoon?” tanyakanya.

“I drove the lady and two children from the orphanage to the park. Watching them from afar, playing all the games that are there,” replied the driver.

“Oh, worth it. Is he happy?” ask Chester again.

“Yes. But after coming home from home, miss looks sad,” reports the driver again.

“Good. You can go.”

Chester pondered for quite a while in the room, before going for a break.

The next two weeks, Venus spent on the island, training with the Falcon team. He continues to hone his skills with the already professional team.

“Falcon, at the dinner meeting last night, someone said that you are the Great General. Are they also government troops?” ask Venus in between her breaks.

“I'm retired. They are mercenaries that I trained myself,” Chester replied. Venus understood.

“Oh yes, three more days there is an auction event. Usually the rich families and nobles will come. I think you can meet your great enemy there,” whispered Chester.

“Are we going back?” ask Venus in wonder.

“Yes. Tomorrow the training is over. Then we go home.”

The night just came down. Venus and Chester step towards the entrance of the grand auction building. In front of the guard, Chester showed me his invitation card.

“Welcome, Mr. Moriarty.” The waiter greeted the two of them and let them in.

“Oh ho, who is this coming? Dear Mr Chester Moriarty!” A man who instantly caused dislike in the heart of Venus, walked over.

“Hai Elliot. I didn't think you were alive,” Chester replied rudely.

The man called Elliot looked at Chester sharply. In the next second, his gaze fell on Venus. The judging look that the woman hated so much.

“That's your eye, Elliot. My daughter is not a display you can carelessly look at!” reproof Chester.

The man was obviously very surprised. “She's your daughter? I really don't know. I'm sorry, Miss Moriarty,” she said a little bowing typical of the nobles. But Venus knew that it was wrong. He and Chester are nobility. It was like a mockery to Chester.

“Ignore him. He's a little crazy!” Chester pulls Venus' hand to go.

“Please don't hurt my heart, Mr Moriarty!” reproof Elliot. His face looked terrible as he looked at Chester's back that was getting further away.

“I'm no longer the Elliot Morgan you used to put in jail!”
