Lust System: Harem Of Beautiful Women

Chapter 301: All Settled

Chloe stretched languidly, smiling with a myriad of charms. ”Husband, don’t worry. My finances have stabilized now, I’m not short on money. When I find a suitable one, I won’t be stingy.”

”My older sister said that her daughter-in-law’s aunt is a nanny. Her previous employer moved away, so she’s free at the moment, and she’s been recently focusing on learning some childcare training.”

Chloe said with a cheerful smile, ”I contacted her yesterday, asked her to help inquire, and see if we could meet for a chat.”

”This niece-in-law of mine said that her aunt’s character is absolutely reliable, the very model of a virtuous wife and loving mother.”

Hearing this, Luis’s hands trembled slightly. Damn, it couldn’t be such a coincidence, could it?

If he wasn’t mistaken, the ”niece-in-law” referred to his sister-in-law Nancy. So the nanny that had caught Chloe’s interest must be Eloise.

If Eloise were to become the nanny at her house... damn, that would be like Mars colliding with Earth, throwing everything into complete chaos.

Chloe, unaware of the strange look on Luis’s face, chuckled and said, ”It’s already settled. We’re supposed to meet tomorrow. If it’s a good fit, I want to secure the deal quickly to avoid any complications.”

Luis hesitated for a moment, unable to come up with a suitable reason to stop her. He thought to himself that his sister-in-law Nancy always had a good head on her shoulders; she surely wouldn’t allow her aunt to come here and work as a nanny, right?

Just as his mind was reeling, Teacher Blanche arrived with a few junior assistants; practically all the intern lawyers from the entire studio came.

”Teacher Blanche!”

Chloe stood up immediately, addressing her with that sweet tone.

Winslet, dressed in a suit dress, was exceptionally charming and alluring. Legal professionals naturally carried an air of formal seriousness, which radiated from her as a unique and distinctive charm.

That form of address caused her to pause slightly for a moment. Then, looking at the captivating and sensual woman before her, she smiled and nodded.

”My good apprentice is treating today. Order whatever you want and reward yourselves properly. But no one is allowed to drink alcohol; we still have work this afternoon.”

Winslet sat in the seat of honor, with Luis and Chloe flanking her on either side.

She took the initiative to ask, ”Luis, how has Lily been lately? Is her morning sickness severe?”

”Her? She doesn’t have any morning sickness at all. She can eat and sleep without any trouble, feeling perfectly comfortable. She wouldn’t even listen when we told her not to go to work. Right now, she’s gone to the capital to attend some training course or another.”

Luis shook his head.

Chloe’s face still wore a smile, but she understood that Winslet’s mention of this was merely a reminder that Luis was a man with a family.

That overly sweet ”Teacher Blanche” she had used earlier... Winslet’s eyes were far too sharp. With one glance, she could see that this stunning beauty had ambitions of securing her position.

In her view, it was necessary to issue a warning.

After all, she was particularly fond of her apprentice’s wife, Lily. Who wouldn’t like such a well-behaved girl?

”Teacher Blanche, please, you order first!”

Chloe was no easy target either. She heard the underlying meaning in the words but didn’t mind it in the slightest.

She made no attempt to conceal her intentions; doing this was precisely to gradually integrate into Luis’s life and gain acceptance from those around him.

Ever since seeing Lily’s photo last time, Chloe felt confident. She was young, beautiful, and had a great figure—surely she could surpass that ugly woman (whose ancestors must have been showered with blessings for her to land such a man) and secure her place.

The only thing troubling her now was that she already had a daughter in tow, while that ugly woman was pregnant with his child. This was a fundamental disadvantage that she turned over and over in her mind, unable to find a way to overcome it and tip the scales in her favor.

Winslet didn’t stand on ceremony either. She picked up the menu and ordered several substantial dishes.

”Teacher Blanche, please accept these.”

Luis took out a shopping bag containing various small Cartier jewelry pieces.

”What’s this? Are you using the tricks for chasing young girls to try and sweet-talk your Teacher Blanche now?”

Seeing they were all genuine items, Winslet immediately looked displeased and said, ”I told you I wouldn’t accept any fees from you. You don’t earn money easily, and there will be plenty of expenses once the child is born.”

”You child, you used to be quite stingy before. Let me tell you, that was a good virtue. Don’t go being so indiscriminately generous now.”

Hearing this, Chloe suddenly felt that the relationship between this Teacher Blanche and her man was very close. At the very least, this lawyer Teacher Blanche seemed to hold a rather doting attitude towards Luis.

”I know, Teacher Blanche, but I’m not poor anymore now.”

Luis smiled generously and said, ”It’s only right that I seek your help, but I can’t let the people under you work for nothing. Consider this a small token of my appreciation. You can distribute it among them.”

”OK!”

Winslet wasn’t one to beat around the bush, so she accepted it right away.

After all, those freshly graduated young girls had stars in their eyes, and she noticed it, feeling too embarrassed to refuse.

She sighed inwardly, thinking how her usually dull and rigid apprentice had matured. It wasn’t easy for him to learn social graces and worldly wisdom, but sure enough, settling down often helps a man succeed in his career.

The dishes arrived quickly. Winslet had ordered what she called ”substantial dishes,” but really, she was trying to save her apprentice some money.

If braised black tiger prawns were considered a main course, that would be rather pathetic. Luis just gave a slight glance, and Chloe, understanding perfectly, picked up the menu and started ordering as if she hadn’t a care in the world.

Steamed Boston lobster, braised sea cucumber with rhino shrimp and sow belly, and a dish many had never even heard of—Typhoon Shelter-style fried Pacific crab.

These were all the restaurant’s signature dishes. Each person got a portion of millet-braised sea cucumber and a bowl of morel mushroom and pigeon soup. It was a thoroughly satisfying meal.

These poor intern lawyers earned pitiful wages, worse off than beasts of burden, worked to the bone and half-dead with exhaustion. A rare chance to feast like this had them all grinning from ear to ear.

”Your case isn’t complicated!”

Over the meal, Winslet said, ”Carter’s case is already filed. They just couldn’t find him, and the Economic Crime Division was especially frustrated. They thought he’d fled the country, so it was a real surprise to find out he’s still here.”

She looked utterly puzzled as she continued, ”Carter was cooperative to a fault. Last night during questioning, he confessed to everything.”

”Including how he embezzled those public funds, how he moved the money overseas, what cryptocurrencies and platforms he used—he laid it all out clearly.”

Winslet seemed even more baffled as she added, ”He was almost too thorough. Last night, the Municipal Bureau dispatched a large team overnight.”

”Nieya has been arrested. Carter’s parents have been arrested too. There’s no escaping charges of harboring criminals for them. The scale of last night’s operation was unusually large.”

Truthfully, it was the Aphrodisiac Incense (Male) doing its work. The ”husband-watching” scenario was so intensely stimulating it took less than an hour.

According to the item’s duration, Luis still had one hour of control remaining.

So by the time Carter reached the police station, he was spilling every detail. That entire hour still fell within the Aphrodisiac Incense’s (Male) control period.

No matter how unwilling he was, during that manipulated time, he had to follow Luis’s will and confess all his dirty deeds clearly.

Given the sheer amount he’d embezzled and moved overseas—and it being public funds—the case was handled with extreme urgency.

Using the addresses he provided, they not only arrested his mistress Nieya overnight but also nabbed a human smuggler who helped people sneak across the border.

The little assistant beside them, full and satisfied, chimed in with a grin:

”Ms. Chloe, I made a special trip this morning to give you a heads-up. Since you mentioned in your statement that Carter had his mother secretly obtain the child’s hair for a paternity test—and he admitted it himself.”

”And then?”

”It proves his family maintained contact with him after his escape and knowingly shielded him. They’ll definitely face some jail time too.”

Chloe immediately raised her teacup, thanking her repeatedly.

As for the wicked ”husband-watching” act the two of them had pulled, that wouldn’t appear in any official record.

After all, it was too obscene and depraved to even put into words.

Carter also kept his mouth shut about that part. For a man, this was the ultimate humiliation, the highest form of cuckoldry imaginable.

He might accept punishment and prison, but he would never reveal this secret. The shame and disgrace were too much to bear. They could probably execute him, and he still wouldn’t utter a word about it.

When they reached the front desk after the meal, Winslet told her assistant to settle the bill.

But the front desk informed her that Chloe had already secretly paid it. Winslet shook her head and said, ”Silly girl, this meal cost a fortune. Your teacher’s wife told you not to spend recklessly.”
