His Precious Love

Chapter 305 Empty In The Head

Curtis then handed another document to Yamazaki and said, “This is Daiwa Corporation’s letter of engagement. From now on, you’ll be managing this business. My assistant will be coming every season to check on it.”

“I…” Yamazaki blurted out, confused.

Curtis continued, “I’m not asking you to manage it for free. You’ll need to keep an eye on someone for me. The eldest son of Yartran’s Terblanc family is the one I want you to keep track of. His men and his business aren’t allowed into Jetroina.”

In an instant, Yamazaki’s face fell.

He had heard of the Terblanc family, and he knew they were not people he should be crossing either. Both the Terblancs and Curtis were ruthless people, and Curtis was forcing him to pick a side.

After a moment of contemplation, Yamazaki steeled himself and said, “I’ll deal with it to the best of my ability.”

At the very least, he had interacted with Curtis. The man was fine, and he was reasonable. On the other hand, he had never interacted with the Terblancs. Who would know what kind of people they were?

Gabriel then walked over with a tray. “Mr. Yamazaki, Mr. Faymon, you must be thirsty, right? Please help yourself to these.”

Curtis took the glass from the tray. Just as he was about to drink from it, he caught a whiff of a sweet scent. Something was amiss. “Is this mineral water?”

“Huh? Mr. Faymon, is there something wrong with it?” Gabriel asked in a confused voice.

Nevertheless, Curtis relaxed when he thought about how Gabriel was the one who filled the glass. Curtis could feel his throat burning when he drank half a glass. Soon, that burning sensation grew, and even his stomach was starting to feel hot.

Frowning, Curtis turned to Gabriel before gloomily repeating, “Are you sure you gave me mineral water?”

“I wasn’t the one who filled the glass.” Gabriel realized something was up when he noticed the tinge of red by the corners of Curtis’ eyes. He then waved in the direction of the reception area and said, “A lady brought it in. I… I just brought the tray over here.”

Then, carefully studying Curtis, he asked, “Mr. Faymon, is it really not mineral water?”

“You idiot!” Curtis cussed, feeling the world spin around him. “Is the inside of your head empty? Don’t you know to try it before giving it to me?”

Yamazaki could not understand the Chanaean they spoke.

Nonetheless, he could figure out that Curtis was scolding his assistant. After a glance at the glass in Curtis’ hand, he said, “Don’t be angry, Mr. Faymon. This is specially blended vodka that takes a while to kick in but is smooth on the way down the throat. Is one glass not enough? Would you like me to send another glass in for you?”

Hearing that, Gabriel inhaled sharply and stammered, “S-Specially blended…”
