A Beta boy working part-time in another world

The boss asked Reese to take Tia into the back room.

Tia was pushed to the ground and listened to how they bargained and discussed selling her.

"600 Grams. I'm already giving you 100 Grams more because we're old friends." The boss lay on the chair, squinting his eyes.

"800." Reese replied.

"No, the price is too high. With a temper like that, I'd have to spend time educating him, and that would cost money."

The boss gave Rise a few more price quotes.

"650, I can't accept you selling it to another family. Do you think they dare to take the landlord's child?"

The boss sneered, seeing through Rui Si's thoughts.

Rui Si gritted his teeth and finally nodded, "Five years, she will only sell it to you for five years, and I will take her back after five years."

"No problem." The boss agreed quickly.

After five years, the flowers have become dead branches and there is no value in keeping them.

But the boss couldn't figure out one thing, "What do you want her to do?"

Reese glanced at Tia with malicious eyes and chuckled.

"In five years she will be worthy of me."

The boss has seen many men like this and naturally knows what they are thinking.

The lowly fellow was rejected by the noble lady, and his self-esteem was trampled upon. He became hateful and wanted to destroy the lady, pull her off the altar, and make her covered in filth.

But so what.

He is a businessman who only cares about money and not right or wrong.

"Get out." The boss threw down a bag of Gersh and yelled at Reese to get out.

Reese left.

Tia curled up in the corner, staring at the fat man who was walking towards her with fear.

"Your name is Tia. From now on, you don't have a name, only a code name 'Rose', okay?"

Even though Tia was afraid, the determination in her eyes never wavered.

"I am Tia, not some rose!"

Snapped!

The boss stared at Tia sinisterly.

"what's your name?"

"Tia!"

Snapped!

"what's your name?"

"Tia! Tia! Tia!"

"Very good, you have a bad temper, and I like to educate people like you who are bad."

The boss clapped his hands, and a woman in a bright red off-shoulder dress came in.

"Boss." The woman came to the man in a flattering manner.

"I'll let you teach this bastard a lesson. Don't hurt her face. Her face is very valuable."

The woman lowered her head and saw the girl with a swollen cheek and blood in her mouth.

For a moment, the woman seemed to have seen something terrifying and immediately concealed her emotions.

"Good boss."

"I'll give you three days. If you can't teach her a lesson, you know the consequences."

"Yes."

The man is gone.

Tia shrank into the corner in even greater fear.

The woman sighed, came to Tia, squatted down and said, "Don't be afraid, just follow me."

Tia looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, hesitating, doubting and fearful.

The woman understood her feelings, so she leaned close to Tia's ear and whispered, "We can't say anything here. Just come with me first. Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

Tia hesitated but still put her hand on it.

The woman wiped the blood from the corner of Tia's mouth with heartache, and took her through the chaotic and dirty trading place in the hall to her room.

"Okay, drink some water."

Tia took the cup and said thank you in a hoarse voice.

The woman sat on the bed, looking at the girl opposite her, the tenderness in her eyes almost turned into flowing water.

Tia felt that this woman was strange.

"you know me?"

"To be precise, I know your mother."

Tia stood up excitedly, and the cup fell on the carpet without her holding it firmly. She looked at the woman in disbelief and fell into her arms.

"Can you get me out?"

The woman hugged Tia and gently stroked her back to comfort her.

"Yes, I will definitely rescue you."

"Thank you, what's your name?" Tia asked, wiping her tears.

"My name is Lakou, and the guests here call me Rose."

Dia felt that Laco must have a lot to say, so she took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed next to her.

"Can you tell me about you and my mother?"

"Of course no problem."

Laco gently wiped the wound on Tia's face while telling her about her own story.

"When your mother and I were very young, we loved each other. She was a very talented woman, and a beautiful woman like a red rose. Her beauty attracted the attention of all the men in the academy."

Tia wondered.

Because she didn't think her mother was that attractive, she dressed normally at home and didn't wear any red at all.

"But mom isn't that dazzling?"

"Because she gave up everything."

Rakou spoke in a low voice, gently pulling Tia into her arms.

"Tia, good girl, your mother is a saint chosen by the temple. She could have gone to the land of gods and had more possibilities, but she was forced to give up everything and eventually married the man who had done a favor to the family."

"Is it my dad, Gene?"

"Yes."

Tia was silent.

She knew what it meant to be chosen as a saint.

"What about you, Rakou, how did you get sold here?"

Laco didn't tell Tia and changed the subject.

"My business is not important."

Tia shook her head, holding Rakou's face and wiping away her tears.

"Lakou, yours is important too, tell me, please."

Looking at the young face that looked like her lover's, Laco seemed to see Eliza when she was young.

"You shouldn't know this..."

"I would like to know."

Tia is no longer a simple girl who knows everything.

Her mind had become very different since she was kidnapped by Reith.

She knew that people with ugly appearances were beautiful inside, she also knew that people who seemed to respect you might be harboring weapons, and she also knew that a person's malice came without reason.

Laco sighed and hugged Tia tightly, tears falling on Tia's face.

"Laco..." Tia felt heartbroken for her.

"The year your mother got married, I wanted to save her and take her away, but I accidentally killed a noble and was caught. Later, I was sold here."

Tia comforted Lakou with heartache and wiped her tears helplessly, but Lakou's tears were too many and she couldn't wipe them all away. She could only hug her to give her a sense of security.

When Lakou was in a better mood, Tia asked, "Does my mother know too?"

"No...she doesn't know. I was caught by Gene. Your mother was still in the house at that time."

Tia's fingertips trembled, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

"Laco, please run away with me."

Lakou didn't answer, but pulled Tia away from his arms, the red in his eyes spreading, but it was gentle.

"Tia, I can't leave."

"why?"

Laco opened the clothes in front of her neck, revealing the red cross brand between her collarbones.

"What is this?" Tia touched the branded mark with a painful heart, unable to imagine how painful it must have been for her at that time.

"This is a magical mark. I can't leave here. Once I leave the store, the magic will force my body to come back."

"I'll tie you up and take you away, and won't let you come back."

Laco smiled helplessly and touched the water marks on Tia's nose.

"Silly child, how can these merchants be so stupid? Their magic imprints have a time limit. Once the time is exceeded, I will die."

Tia was completely stunned.
