Luck is a Charm

Chapter 254: Juliet

"Something you want to know?" Juliet raised an eyebrow in confusion.

What was it that Zen wanted to know from her?

She already knew he was suspected of her being related to the labyrinth incident so what other information does he want.

"You don't have to be so confused since it's obvious what I want to know from you" Zen chuckled softly as he paused briefly before continuing.

"The mastermind, who is it?"

Juliet shuddered slightly and her complexion turned rigid as she wasn't going to point out the mastermind at any cost.

Losing 9 billion spirit stones would be a small matter- no, it would be a non-existent matter when compared to revealing the mastermind.

Juliet took a deep breath before smiling briefly at Zen, "Your spirit stones would be delivered before the end of the day."

Afterward, Juliet stood up and prepared to leave the area as she did not wish to stay here any longer.

She was afraid of what Zen would do to get her to open her mouth and speak about the mastermind.

"Even if you don't tell me who's the mastermind, I can pretty much guess it," Zen didn't stop her from leaving as he made a wide grin.

Even though he did not wish to be the person he was guessing, Juliet's behavior and attitude prove that he was close in his guess or he could be directly on the mark.

Juliet halted her movement as she turned around to stare at Zen who was calmly sitting in his chair.

"What do you mean by pretty much guessing it?" Juliet stuttered and asked, hoping that Zen was merely bluffing her and tried to get her to speak the truth accidentally.

Alas, Zen remained quiet and refused to answer her question.

Juliet clenched her fist in anger when he kept her in suspense, the same thing she did to him previously.

'This Zen really loves to hold grudges,' Juliet cursed inwardly and found he was acting more like a woman than a man.

A man shouldn't be petty and remember the grudges all the time but Zen was the complete opposite.

"Hmph, since you already guessed who's the mastermind then go ahead and confront it," Juliet sneered as she turned around and tried to open the door to leave.

Alas, Zen wasn't going to let her simply leave as he said something that caused Juliet to almost vomit blood in anger.

"Yes, I will confront the mastermind and when they asked how did I know, I will say that because I had sex with Juliet and gave her the maximum pleasures she always wanted in life."

And he continued, "Thus, she in return gave me information about it."

Zen laughed heartily when he realized just how much of a shameless scoundrel he can be.

'Aii~ being a shameless scoundrel is always better than some righteous ass hero that always follows by the rules or some dumb restriction,' Zen sighed inwardly in relief that he doesn't have to follow any laws in this world as he could do whatever he pleased.

If somehow he was overpowered by the enemy, then he could simply run away and fight again the next time.

Meanwhile, Juliet's face became extremely red, not from embarrassment or shame, but from anger at Zen's accusation that could get her killed at any time.

Not to mention the fact that Zen blatantly said that he fucked her so hard that she was willing to reveal all of the information.

'I'm not a whore,' Juliet shouted inwardly as she grudgingly walked toward Zen with her fist raised high in the air.

Afterward, she tried to punch Zen in the heat of the moment but Zen already guessed that she would try something like that.

Hence, he quickly dodged away and grabbed her wrist before throwing her into his lap as he started rubbing her back.

Juliet trembled in anger as she was being molested by Zen but soon, her expression pale when she realized Zen was moving his hand more down, toward her butt to be precise.

"Stop it you shameless scoundrel, I'm not some woman who would spread her legs to you," Juliet screamed in panic as she realized her body seemed to become powerless.

"Well, right now you are captured by me so I can actually do whatever the hell I want. Also, you can stop struggling since I'm pretty sure you know exactly what's happening to you," Zen said calmly and revealed the platinum card for Juliet to see.

Juliet's eyes widened in surprise when she saw him holding a platinum card.

'H-How did he obtain a platinum card?' Juliet cried inwardly as she would have left from the start if she knew he had a platinum card the entire time.

"Heh, based on our pale expression, I can tell that you know exactly what this platinum card does," Zen curved his lips upward when his guess had just been confirmed.

However, he was more shocked than anyone else to notice it was her that was the mastermind the entire time.

'Why is it Evie and what's her motive behind the labyrinth incident?' Zen questioned inwardly as he would never expect she would be this mysterious and powerful.

He recalled their first meeting scene and wondered if she had gone easy on him since it was obvious that he would have been killed if Evie wanted to do so.

He has been suspicious of her during the labyrinth incident since she seemed way too calm about the situation even if she was used to dealing with any type of situation as a businesswoman. 

Not to mention, the suspicion only increased further when she gave him the platinum card which he found out has an extremely powerful ability that can restrict even him.

Meanwhile, Juliet paled when she heard Zen's sentence and asked "Who do you think the mastermind is?"

"Do we even need to say it aloud at this point?" Zen chuckled softly as he cast an illusion barrier around them just in case there was someone eavesdropping on them with some secretive method.

Afterward, he continued, "Although your acting with Evie seemed to be nothing but a casual friend in which Evie wanted to recruit you, I was careful enough to notice you signaling something to Evie during the Scarlet family auction house."

Juliet was dumbfounded to realize that Zen managed to detect something was wrong with them at that time. She always believed he was just flirting with her and warning her previously due to his protective attitude.

'C-Could it be the warning from that time that means something else?' Juliet pondered inwardly as she became terrified by Zen's deep meaning and action.

"Heh, did you really think my warning at that time was just me being overly cautious? I was warning you to not try to do something fishy but still, you went ahead and did it." Zen smiled evilly as he spanked her butt.

"Ahhh," Juliet screamed in surprise with a bit of pain mixed in her emotion as she felt her butt being burned by the sensation of the spank.

"Women must really think I'm a fool that can only focus on my bottom part the entire time," Zen laughed more loudly as he spanked Juliet's butt again.

This time, Zen made sure to infuse some of his mana and true qi to make Juliet feel extreme pain and pleasure at the same time.

Juliet could only continue to scream in ecstasy and pain as she had no way to free herself due to the platinum card ability.

"Please forgive me, I was only a mere subordinate and was simply following Madam Evie's order," Juliet teared up as she directly shifted the blame to Evie.

"Yes, I will have to figure out a plan to deal with Evie since I can't tell if we are still on the same side or not. She is too mysterious and powerful for me to even try to do something against her," Zen nodded his head calmly as he didn't know if Evie was an ally or a foe.

If Evie was a foe then Zen must be extremely cautious and leave the Jade Kingdom quickly to avoid her grasp on him.

After all, he would be surrounded by multiple enemies and be trapped within the Jade Kingdom if Evie wanted to capture him.

While Zen ponders over how to proceed with his next action, he was unconsciously spanking Juliet's butt the entire time, causing her to almost have an orgasm from the spanking.

"Stop it pleaseeee~," Juliet screamed loudly as she begged for Zen to stop. 

Zen snapped out of his daze as he realized his hand was still spanking at Juliet's soft and round butt.

"Whoops, my bad, your butt felt extremely good for my hand that I forgot to stop spanking," Zen apologized half-heartedly as he started rubbing her but to heal her slightly.

Juliet smiled bitterly as she cursed Evie in her mind for giving the platinum card to Zen which he uses to bully her.
