RE: Perverted Sugar Daddy System-Chapter 433: Hill Country

On a seemingly endless stretch of road, brown sand stretching into the wind on both sides of it, a white jeep sped across the asphalt, the driver having the vehicle’s engine roar with power as it moved forward. Whatever horsepower the vehicle possessed was being fully revealed on this road, its torque pushed to the extreme.

"How long does the desert stretch?"

"Not much. We’re just passing through a small region of it in the state. It does stretch for much longer to the East, but if you go west, the brown earth expands until it seems as if the whole world is made of it."

Nadia had turned into my tour guide, a large map spread open on her lap as she constantly studied it, updating me as we moved forward. A flight to our destination had very much been on the table, but we had decided instead to go by road.

"How much longer till we reach?"

"A second." My PA traced her fingers over the large paper, her eyes narrowing in concentration. "An hour max."

Having been awake watching the scenery outside for most of the journey, I leaned back, my head hitting the back of the seat and eyes closing. I remained silent for several minutes, then suddenly spoke.

"If you don’t relax your face muscles, you’ll find yourself ageing faster than you expect."

"Thank you," Nadia replied, but her features did not change.

It amused me that at a certain point Nadia made it a point not to care about me, but now she frowned constantly just to make her displeasure known.

"My next international trip will be just the two of us. You’ll be my liaison to Martha."

Nadia didn’t reply for several seconds, and just when I was beginning to think she wouldn’t, she grunted.

"That will just be a business trip."

I knew what she wanted. My spontaneous trips where I somehow got to experience the impossible and play a big part in the creation of global news.

"You mean something like Martha trying to kill us."

Nadia’s mouth immediately opened to answer, but scenes flew through her head and she stayed quiet.

"Don’t up and disappear, leaving me in the dark till you return."

"I won’t."

"That’s what you said the last time, but you still left me."

"The situation was honestly complex. I couldn’t divulge information to you concerning my departure."

"But you made contact with my master."

"You’re right. I should have also added you to the mix, and today, I promise you that I will next time. But you have to be ready to provide value. The matters during such moments aren’t light."

"I won’t fail you."

"Good."

A smile didn’t appear on her face, but her features lightened by a mile, and I guessed that was all I would be getting for the moment.

Our journey faced no mishap, and we reached our destination. As we drove past a long, tall block of cement with bold writing on it, I was fully awake.

WELCOME TO KERRVILLE

From Houston, we had traveled to the central region of Texas, stepping into hill country. A few minutes more of driving and no longer were we moving between trees and bare land, but instead between cars and tall, stretching buildings.

The car came to a stop in front of a hotel, and quickly we made our way to our suite. Nadia took care of the greetings from the staff and, following that, questioned them on matters pertaining to the hotel and the city as a whole.

In my room, just as I prepared to step into the bathroom, Nadia knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The woman pushed open the door, but when she saw me dropping my pants, she immediately froze.

"Maybe I should come back later."

"You mentioned having a contact here in the city," I questioned.

"Yes," the woman answered and, seeing me wave awkwardly, stepped in.

"Have you made contact?"

"Not yet."

Nodding, completely naked, I approached Nadia, watching as her breath hitched before she quickly calmed her nerves.

"What did you come in here to tell me?"

"The school called. I informed them you were in the city and then wondered if you could make it today."

"When?"

"Now."

"There goes my plan to invite Wanda to shower."

My right hand came up and stroked Nadia’s cheek, pushing her hair behind her ear.

"Would you like to join me?"

"You have a pending appointment, sir."

"True."

I didn’t spend much time in the bathroom. In a couple of minutes, I was wearing brown pants and a black shirt, putting on black sneakers, smelling good and carrying a brown file in hand. I stood at the front of the hotel, looking for a taxi.

"2:23 pm. Not much time to work. What do they want me for?"

We had chosen a hotel close to the school, so I didn’t spend much time on the road.

SPAULDING TECHNICAL SCHOOL

Walking through the parking lot, I looked up at the tall brown building with dark glass stretching across its surface in front of me. There were no students outside, and even as I stepped in, finding myself in the hallway, I saw no child.

Echo!!

Information poured into my head and I realized where I was likely needed, but there was a process for such institutions, and I followed the process.

Knock.

Knock.

"Come in."

"Ma’am," I greeted.

The woman behind the desk looked up at me with a creased forehead. She clearly had a lot on her mind, but the sight of me made her features relax, her back straightening, and before she knew it, she was on her feet.

"Sir, welcome. I wasn’t informed of any arrival today... please have a seat."

She rushed her words as she spoke, smiling brighter than necessary, my arrival obviously making her panic. It was times like this that reminded me of the aura I passively gave out.

Normally, I wouldn’t notice the pressure I exerted, and it was because, so far since I joined Ford, I only interacted with individuals either below me or above me.

"How may I help you, sir?" the woman said, and I could faintly sense that she was racking her brain for my identity, like it was something she should know.

"I’m Marcus Lawson, the computer expert who volunteered to help in the school’s science week."
