Is There Really a Problem?

"Alright, then come with me."

"I’ll show you around the lab and explain some of the work I’ll need you to do regularly."

"Although the hours won’t be longer than your time at the Celebrity Hotel, there will still be quite a lot for you to do normally."

Tony did not mind upon hearing that and spoke.

"Then Sarah and I will head back first."

"Afterward, please have Jarvis take Lalatina to Sarah’s residence once, Mr. Tony."

Sonia knew the matter had been settled, so she had no intention of lingering and spoke.

"Don’t worry, it’s no trouble at all."

Tony casually replied.

"Bye-bye, see you tonight, Lalatina."

Seeing that Sonia-senpai intended to leave, Sarah knew she could not stay and disturb them, so she waved goodbye.

Then, as Sarah followed Sonia away—

"That’s great. Lalatina should be able to stay on the island from now on."

"Mr. Tony can be rather self-absorbed sometimes, but he always follows through on what he says."

As Sarah walked alongside Sonia, she spoke with some envy.

"If you work hard enough to earn Mr. Kassadin’s recognition, you will not only be able to stay here, but also gain greater power."

Seeing Sarah’s envious expression, Sonia spoke.

"I want that too, but I don’t know whether I can pass the test."

"And I still haven’t even met Mr. Kassadin."

"At most, I’ve only heard some of Mr. Kassadin’s legends from other people."

Upon hearing that, Sarah also dearly wished to settle down on Void Island in the future. Working as a record keeper was easy, and the pay was generous.

But honestly, Sarah had never felt very confident.

After all, over the past month, she had heard of others who yearned to join the Void Cult yet had stayed here for two months without receiving recognition, leaving only with regret.

A year seemed like a long time, but when one worked every day, it actually felt rather short.

"I can’t guarantee that for you, but I can tell you this with certainty."

"Mr. Kassadin has always been watching everything on the island, including you."

"Lalatina had just arrived. The reason I came over was because Mr. Kassadin said Mr. Tony had brought a beautiful woman back from the Celebrity Hotel."

Sonia wanted to give her a guarantee, but she could not influence Mr. Kassadin’s thoughts, so she did not dare say that Sarah would definitely pass. Still, she comforted her.

"Mr. Kassadin said that?"

"Wasn’t it just that you happened to want to come see me, Sonia-senpai?"

"You come by to check on me occasionally anyway."

Sarah asked doubtfully.

"If it were merely a coincidence, that would be far too much of one."

"So don’t lose heart. Take it slowly and just do your job well."

"Just think of it this way: even if you don’t pass, you’ll still have experienced it and leave with 1.2 million."

Sonia extended a slender finger and tapped Sarah’s forehead lightly as she spoke softly.

"Mm."

Hearing those comforting words, Sarah nodded.

After Sonia sent Sarah back to the Records Temple, she immediately hurried toward Summit Villa without stopping.

Because she had something extremely important to do: test whether there was really something wrong with Mr. Kassadin’s sexual orientation.

If there was, then she probably had no hope for the rest of her life. If there was not, then she would still have some opportunities in the future.

Inside Summit Villa.

"Have you settled in that beautiful woman Tony brought back from the Celebrity Hotel?"

Seeing Sonia return, Harvey casually asked.

"Mm. Her name is Lalatina. After work, she’ll live with Sarah, so they’ll have company."

Hearing how Mr. Kassadin referred to Lalatina, Sonia’s gaze flickered before she nodded.

Since Mr. Kassadin calls other people beautiful women, his taste should be fine, right?

"I got sweaty after walking around outside for a while. I’ll take a bath first, then I’ll prepare dinner for you soon."

As Sonia said this, she was also observing Mr. Kassadin.

"Go ahead."

Harvey did not think much of Sonia wanting to bathe as soon as she returned. It was normal for women to like being clean.

Sonia was somewhat speechless when she found that Mr. Kassadin had not even looked at her after she said she had worked up a sweat.

However, it was still too early to draw a conclusion. She would know after changing into something more pure yet alluring to test him.

Having made up her mind, Sonia immediately returned to her room.

Harvey was playing a game when he suddenly thought about it. With Sonia’s current physical condition, would she really sweat just from walking around the island for a while?

"Sonia…"

This made Harvey turn his head, intending to ask what was going on.

"What is it, Mr. Kassadin?"

Almost the instant the words left his mouth, Sonia heard Mr. Kassadin call her and immediately appeared before Harvey.

When Harvey saw Sonia wrapped in a bathrobe, the smooth, snow-white skin exposed beneath her lovely figure made his gaze tremble.

No normal man could see a woman with such a beautiful figure and peerless looks standing defenselessly before him in a bathrobe without having some thoughts.

However, Harvey thought that Sonia being so unguarded around him meant she completely trusted his character and knew he would not think that way.

If he really could not restrain himself and did something impulsive, it would shatter that impression of him. He would truly be no better than a beast.

"Nothing. Hurry up and wash. I want something to drink."

So Harvey immediately suppressed the desire that had involuntarily risen within him and spoke calmly.

Then Harvey turned back toward the projection in front of him.

"…Alright. Give me ten minutes."

Sonia saw that Mr. Kassadin had only glanced at her face, and that his tone had not changed at all. She felt somewhat disappointed, but still answered seriously.

Afterward, Sonia left once more.

Feeling Sonia leave, Harvey let out a breath of relief.

If his face had not been shrouded by Void Power so that others could not see through it, he would have exposed his thoughts just now.

Still, it was not a solution for Sonia to keep wandering around before him so defenselessly every day.

Thinking of this, Harvey felt it was necessary to find a suitable opportunity to explain this matter to Sonia.

And he needed to find time to go out and vent his desires.

Otherwise, he truly feared that one day, unable to suppress the impulse in his heart, he would force Sonia down right where she stood.

Meanwhile, Sonia sat in the bathtub, looking at her slender, jade-like feet and snow-white skin, then at her reflection in the water.

Could there really be something wrong with Mr. Kassadin’s sexual orientation?
