Chapter 353 - A Disguised Favor
353 Chapter 353 - A Disguised Favor
"It feels distant when someone as beautiful as you call me like that." William said in polite gesture but didn't think that it would actually work on her.
Kat looked away from him for a brief moment as she suddenly felt a blush coming up to her and said, "Ohh you! Don't harass me like that."
William didn't think that someone who was a few years older than him and was also legal would actually blush to his words. In that moment he realized that the usage of his godly physique was nothing to laugh at and if he played his cards right then sugar mama's after sugar mama's would come rolling in for him.
But that was another matter.
William smiled faintly at her and thinking that her action was some antiques, "Yes! Thank you and the royal family for inviting me to the King's Tournament."
Kat's blush fled for the moment as she looked at him, "OH! Was it to your liking?"
"Yes, The seats were great."
"O-Oh… And how about the tournament itself?"
William wanted to say that besides a few matches the whole tournament was quiet boring for him, but alas he couldn't say such things to a member of the royal family that had organized the event themselves.
"It was great as well." He said with a fake smile that seemed real to Kat, So she smiled in return as well, "Thank you. I hope that you would come to the next King's Tournament as well."
"If the seats were as great as today then of course."
'Is the only thing going on his mind are the seats?' Kat thought but said, "Of course, I'd remember to tell that to his majesty."
"Speaking of his highness, the King has told me to give you his greetings."
William's eyes sparked up, "OH!... the king gave me his greetings?... Well… to think he actually knows me. It is a great honor."
"He also told me to tell you how sad he was when he heard of your father's passing and that you can ask us for help if anything arises."
"Thank his highness for those words and that I very grateful for them. Also tell him that his subject is willing to help him out in any way that I can."
Kat nodded but she hesitated the next moment, her eyes started shaking and she didn't know how to say the next words to him, But William was able to catch them… or that she pretended to let him catch them.
"Ms. Kat is something wrong?"
"No- nothing."
'Hmm… something about her behavior feels very… fakey. Seems like she wants me to fall for her tricks.'
'Now should I… or should I not?'
'Aahh… You know what, let's just 'Fall' for her trap and see what she wants.'
"Are you sure?... I feel like there was something strange about you just now."
Kat acted hesitated and moved her eyes from William to the ground and finally did she revealed what she was hiding underneath her. She brought a paper and gave it to William.

Kat acted hesitated and moved her eyes from William to the ground and finally did she revealed what she was hiding underneath her. She brought a paper and gave it to William.
"I… don't know how to say this but… the royal family- I mean his highness wants you to do some favors for him." She said and expected to see slight disturbance or anger in his face but… she only got a nice smile.
"Oh! The King has somethings for me, Wow I didn't think that I would actually be helpful to my king."
"S-so you would do this favor for your king?"
"Of Course and you don't have to take this as a favor, it is my solemn duty as one of his subjects to help his highness." William said as he took the paper and gave it to Naomi.
Kat smiled, "Thank you for this. His highness would be grateful when he hears about this." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
William nodded, "Alright and if his highness or… even if the royal family had some other matters for me than please relay them to me."
Kat was shocked for a moment before giving a brilliant smile, "Alright, I will personally come to deliver you any messages if I get any."
"Wow! Helping the king and also having a beautiful girl to talk to, I feel quite lucky."
"Oh! YOU." Kat said hiding her blush, "Stop making me blush already."
They talked a few more moments before saying their goodbyes and both going to their significant destination. William to his mansion and Kat to the Royal House to relay that her mission has been completed.
...…
William's Mansion
William sat in his main office as Naomi gave him the general description of what the paper had written on it. He nodded to her as she sat on the chair and said, "So it's just a few requests about helping the poor and some other irrelevant ones."
"Wh-why are you looking at me like that?"
22:22
"Oh no… I was just thinking that you are the right person for this job."
Naomi nodded and said her thoughts, "Yes, but in hindsight it also serves a dual purpose."
"How so?"
"It also gives them a support in their propaganda, even though we are the ones truly helping them but we are doing it in their work so the favor and support actually goes out to them and…" She stopped at the end.
"Why did you stop? Go on."
Naomi showed a slight bow, "I am sorry for being so blunt but I think that they are using you for themselves."
"Yes, I already know that."
"NO… not just that. I think this requests are not from the King; I don't think he even knows about it… this may be works from the other members of the royal family."
"They are using you for their own benefits and think that by using the King's name they would get your support… even if you had problems with them."
She said and looked at his face and expected to see some anger… but all she got was a smile from William that didn't seem so much like a smile.
It seemed like a spider patiently waiting for the prey to fall into the net.
"Wh-why are you looking at me like that?"
"Oh no… I was just thinking that you are the right person for this job."
"Hmm?... Don't tell me… You already thought about this?" She asked and felt slight shock at William's nod.
To Naomi it seemed like William was being baited from the start. Invitation to an organized event, meeting a beautiful girl, having a good moment with her and finally when the moment was right, a little jab to the left and shake her eyes to the right to get right amount of attention from him and finally ask him to do the favors.
To her it looked like William was unknown to it from the start so hearing that he knew about it came with a surprising face.
"Come on now, I don't look that gullible, right?" William said and later changed his mind, "You know what. It's better to look like I'm gullible then to be one."
"Since when?"
"From the start… since you told me that those tickets were from the royal family."
"That Long!"
"Hmm" William nodded, "Yeeeah… I didn't believe that the royal family would invite me to an event of theirs and give me good seats just to show their magnanimity."
"Now do whatever they asked us to do and in the future do whatever else they want us to."
"It would be better if we could rack in some favors from the royal family."
