The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1260: Chapter 1260: She’s Just My Boss, Not My Wife!

”Ghost Tower.”

Delarosa replied calmly, ”Right now, you shouldn’t be concerned about who I am, but rather, how you can stay alive.”

The man showed a bright smile, ”You won’t kill me, at least, not now.”

Delarosa said coldly, ”Are you that confident?”

The man laughed, ”The Realm Gate has been sealed by our people. You’ve gone through great lengths to capture me because you want to subdue me and then use me to infiltrate the Immortal Realm, right?”

Delarosa nodded calmly, ”You’re quite smart. To stay alive, hand over your True Soul and sign a contract. Otherwise, you have no value alive.”

Without any hesitation, the man readily agreed, ”Alright, who should I sign with, you or her?”

Delarosa spoke indifferently, ”I am merely an Artifact Spirit, naturally, you’ll sign with her.”

”Okay!”

Without another word, the man took out his True Soul and handed it to Cristopher Hopkins Immortal.

Cristopher Hopkins Immortal stared wide-eyed, grinding her teeth, wanting to say something, but in the end, she just snorted and took the man’s True Soul, signing a master-servant contract. From then on, the man’s life was in the hands of Cristopher Hopkins Immortal.

Upon seeing this, Carson Flores finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With such a powerful Immortal as a subordinate, what was once an extremely difficult task suddenly became simple.

Cristopher Hopkins Immortal stared at the man and sneered, ”Weren’t you so arrogant before? Why have you surrendered so quickly?”

Delarosa waved her hand to dissipate the mountain, and the man struggled to climb up, sat down cross-legged, covered in blood, and quite a sorry figure.

”Arrogance is my nature. I was arrogant towards you before because Maggie Fitzgerald gave me benefits. She was my boss, and since you were her rival, wasn’t it normal for me to strike against you?”

”I fought with all my might and lost. That’s not my fault. After all, I did my best and that’s fair to Maggie Fitzgerald. Just because she gave me many benefits, I can’t give her my life, can I? She’s just my boss, not my wife.”

”Having lost, why still be stubborn and suffer needlessly? For the sake of survival, I now work for you. You’re my boss now, and I will naturally obey your commands without arrogance. If it were someone else, I would still be just as arrogant...”

The man’s straightforward remarks left Cristopher Hopkins Immortal momentarily speechless.

What a character!

Carson Flores chuckled inwardly as he listened on the side. Isn’t this just a typical wage earner?

You give me benefits, and I work my hardest for you, but that’s it. No one should expect me to risk my life for you—that’s simply impossible!

A villain?

Not really, he just has a clear view of life.

The man chuckled, ”If it weren’t for the Barbaric Wilderness Realm, you might not have been able to capture me. After all, my strength isn’t weak. Here, it’s been greatly reduced, and many of my techniques can’t be used.”

”Maggie Fitzgerald only gave me benefits and did not sign a contract, but now, to save my own life, I can only sign with you. From now on, I must obey your orders for the rest of my life. Lucky for me, you’re the Domain Master’s daughter, with a noble status. Following you isn’t a loss for me.”

”I’m actually quite capable. Just watch, boss, and I’ll earn my keep. I don’t have any other demands, just hope that if I do earn my keep and eventually bring down Maggie Fitzgerald to avenge this grudge, considering my contributions, you’ll spare my life.”

Cristopher Hopkins Immortal sneered, ”That depends on how capable you are and how much merit you can accumulate. Merely bragging won’t cut it!”

The man laughed, ”Then let me start off with a gesture of goodwill. Two others came with me; after I recover from my injuries, let’s go back and capture them as well, subduing them too.”

”Then we can pretend to capture you and take you directly back to the Immortal Realm. As long as we pass through the Realm Gate, with your status as the Domain Master’s daughter, a single command from you will be enough—aren’t powerful allies at your beck and call?”

”Even if Maggie Fitzgerald currently holds significant power with many strong beings at her side, you won’t lose to her, right? With a little maneuvering, dealing with her should be simple?”

Carson Flores watched the man actively considering Cristopher Hopkins Immortal’s stance and couldn’t help but find it amusing; this guy had no qualms about turning against Maggie Fitzgerald.

A true opportunist!

Although his character was somewhat questionable, his suggested plan was solid and reliable.

After all, Cristopher Hopkins Immortal is the daughter of the Domain Master, supremely honored. Even if the Domain Master hasn’t returned for five hundred years, he’s not dead, so who would dare to disrespect Cristopher?

After thinking it over, Cristopher Hopkins Immortal also felt that this plan was feasible.

”Okay, let’s proceed as you suggest!”

Cristopher Hopkins agreed cleanly and decisively. After all, the plan was time-sensitive. If those two Immortals sensed something amiss and reported it to Maggie Fitzgerald in the Immortal Realm, it was likely that all three Immortals would end up sealed in the Barbarian Wilderness.

”Carson Flores, you help him heal. Once he’s recovered, we’ll act immediately. Give me a few magical treasures first. Oh, right, what’s your name?”
