You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 588 - 569

"In that case, you mean... to drive him away?" Lisa was a bit startled.

The initial lust suddenly cooled down. The connections behind Shen Mochen were completely out of her league. But really, should she just hand him over and let him die again...

"No." The boss shook his head.

"Then, are you going to kill him?" Sadness appeared in Lisa's eyes.

"Keep him!" The boss said firmly.

"Eh?" Lisa was both surprised and delighted, "But you just said..."

The boss gave a light hum: "It's the Alexandrov Family that wants to kill him, what's that got to do with me?"

He thought very clearly, the reason Shen Mochen suffered such a disaster was simply because of being guilty of cherishing a treasure. Who told him to be favored by Miss Alexandrova? And a small character like Shen Mochen, if he dies, he dies... Presumably, the Alexandrov Family wouldn't care too much.

Moreover, he wasn't afraid of being discovered later that Shen Mochen was hiding with him.

The Alexandrov Family never explicitly said they wanted Shen Mochen dead, so how could they blame him for harboring Shen Mochen? At worst, when someone comes knocking, he can hand Shen Mochen over to them to deal with.

Besides, the boss himself also belonged to another marquis family. Although not a core member, he wasn't someone the Alexandrov Family could easily manipulate either. By the time the Alexandrov Family really came for Shen Mochen, they'd likely have to give him a hefty "compensation." Googlᴇ search NoveI[F]ire.net

Furthermore, the root cause for the Alexandrov Family wanting to silence Shen Mochen was Catherine the little princess's favor. If he kept Shen Mochen working here, wasn't that a more extreme humiliation? Once Catherine knew Shen Mochen had worked as a young master here, wouldn't she lose interest of her own volition?

Perhaps the Alexandrov Family might even thank him!

Thinking of this, the boss felt fully confident. He called Shen Mochen out, adjusted his demeanor, and began to ask questions.

"I'm roughly aware of your situation," the boss said with feigned calmness, "but you need to answer me honestly, why did you come to us?"

"I want a lot of money." Shen Mochen replied.

"Why?"

"I want to treat someone's illness."

"Whose?"

"My girlfriend's mother."

"You have a girlfriend?"

"She says she's my girlfriend, so perhaps she is."

"Is that girlfriend the one who took you in these past few days?"

"Yes."

The boss's gaze flickered slightly; he thought, how could Shen Mochen possibly have a girlfriend in Roman? It must be that someone found him handsome and made it up. A truly lucky girl.

"Do you remember anything from before you lost your memory?" the boss asked again.

"I remember nothing at all." Shen Mochen shook his head.

The boss's expression became serious: "Do you want to know your identity?"

Shen Mochen looked earnest: "I do! Do you know who I am?"

The boss said hauntingly: "I do know you, you're Shen Mochen, a well-known figure from Yupi, but you've offended someone and came to Roman to seek refuge. But you have enemies in Roman too, and they also want to get rid of you. Perhaps that's why there's 'someone wants to kill you' in your mind."

He didn't intend to hide everything from Shen Mochen; after all, his aim was to have Shen Mochen entertain guests and make money. Amongst the guests, some might inevitably reveal some information to Shen Mochen. Of course, he wouldn't clarify the whole story either, as he still needed more leverage over Shen Mochen.

"So, my name is Shen Mochen..." Shen Mochen mumbled, as if just learning his own name.

"May I ask, who are my enemies?" Shen Mochen asked again.

"I don't know, but those who can set off a plane explosion in the Capital Circle must be someone I can't afford to offend..." The boss shook his head, starting with intimidation.

As expected, Shen Mochen was frightened, turning pale instantly.

"Then... can't I stay and work here..." Shen Mochen pleaded pitifully.

"Sigh!" The boss lit a cigarette, after a long while, he sighed with sympathy, "It's not impossible, though I'd bear some risks, but I'm a kind-hearted person. My son is your age too, and you're indeed pitiable."

"Could you take me in?" Shen Mochen suddenly beamed with joy, showing a grateful expression.

The boss secretly delighted: "Perhaps, but I'll try not to assign you any public-facing work. As for your terms... do you have anything to say?"

"I... want a lot of money." Shen Mochen said timidly.

"How much?" The boss frowned slightly.

"... Fifty thousand a month. Is that ok, please, my girlfriend's mother really needs this money to save her life!"

"Fifty thousand?" The boss's eyebrows relaxed and he laughed heartily, "No problem, child, I can give you fifty thousand! But you know, fifty thousand is a significant amount, so you must work for me at least five days a week. Can you do that?"

"Of course I can!" Shen Mochen promised immediately but quickly hesitated, "However... I have another request."

"Speak." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"I'm doing this secretly, my girlfriend doesn't know... could you give this money to the hospital instead, anonymously, like it's a donation from a kind stranger..."

The boss looked deeply at Shen Mochen: "No problem, though it's quite troublesome, I think I can handle it better. But now, I need you to clearly tell me the hospital and the patient's name."

...

"Back?" The boss sat in the office.

"Yes." Lisa replied respectfully, though her legs were weak, she managed to drive Shen Mochen back.

"A boy kissed by God is only worth fifty thousand," the boss laughed heartily, filled with smugness, "I just had a friend check, there's indeed such a patient in the Roman Royal Hospital, suffering from a rare disease, undergoing customized treatment. The patient's daughter immigrated from Yupi and is serving in the Guardian Flame Army as a Superpower User."

"That's consistent with what I just inquired about." Lisa hesitated, "But isn't it too much to put him back..."

"Ha, he's now like a startled bird. Where else could he possibly go besides here?" The boss said confidently, "The most important thing now is to gain his trust and cooperation, then he will obediently become our cash cow. He will surely come tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that!"

Lisa nodded, she too felt that Shen Mochen appeared to be scared out of his wits, having no other options left.

"Do you think he's genuinely lost his memory?" the boss asked.

But before Lisa could reply, he continued laughing to himself: "Whether it's true amnesia or fake amnesia, there's no place left to accept him!"

Meanwhile, back at his lodging, after saying goodbye to Lisa, the naivety faded from Shen Mochen's eyes, replaced by an enigmatic depth.
