Darryl resisted the urge to be impulsive and said plainly, "What on earth are you trying to say?"
Darryl would have given up ten years ago if he had seen such a mature and attractive lovely lady.
However, Darryl was well aware that the woman in front of him was conceited.
She was there for another reason.
"Oh, gosh."
Rita glared at him. "Do you have to spoil the mood? Okay, I'll just say it then."
"I want to know if you got those two Martial Emperor inner cores by yourself," Rita stated slowly as she sat on the sofa next to Darryl and crossed her legs.
"Sure."
Rita was intrigued. "But you are not all that powerful."
Darryl laughed. "That is my little secret."
How could Darryl be frank about him hiding his real strength?
"Well, I will not ask for anything else that I should not be asking for," Rita remarked as she sipped her wine and smiled.
"I would like to work with you. Sell the inner cores that you have in the future. Rest assured that I will give you a much higher market price."
Rita's beautiful face turned solemn. "But on one condition. You can't tell other people or sell the inner cores to anyone else. That is an exclusive deal between us. What do you think?"
Rita's attention was fixated on Darryl as though she was concerned.
Rita did that to stock up the inner cores so that she could exercise control over the price. She also wanted to get to know Darryl more. She was curious about how someone who appeared to be frail could get his hands on the Martial Emperor's inner core. That was amazing.
"Sure."
Darryl nodded and flashed a tiny smile. "I will think about it."
