Chapter 275: 269: Oh, How Miserable
He gently moved Emma aside, got out of bed, and took a shower. When Finn came out of the bath, Emma had already woken up. Seeing Finn, a pitiful look crossed her face. “You’re ruthless,” she claimed.
“Uh… I can’t really be blamed for that, it’s just the way I am.” Finn hesitated, then scratched his head. “You probably won’t be able to move today, so just stay still. I’ll get someone to help you in a bit.”
“Ok.” Emma wanted to say something, but in the end, she held back and obediently nodded. Finn picked up his phone and directly called Jay Sommer, as he couldn’t bring Fishy Wells and the others over. He had no choice but to call Jay.
“Come over here, there’s something I need you to handle.” After thinking for a bit, Finn spoke.
Finn waited in Emma’s room till Jay Sommer arrived before leaving. Although the two chatted the whole time, neither Finn nor Emma brought up the future. Even when Jay Sommer, a woman whose looks matched Emma’s came in, Emma said nothing, simply watching Finn leave.
After going downstairs and sitting in the car, Finn was a bit dazed. While yesterday was mostly Zero’s mission, he knew that he didn’t resist it either. But what about the future? Giving up on Kay Lee? Finn didn’t think he could do it.
“Is this what you call ‘hit and quit’?” Finn couldn’t help but blurt out.
“I can’t help you make a decision about that, Sir. It’s something you have to weigh for yourself. The only thing I can tell you is that you’re destined for a
long life. Plus, no one in this world can compare to your status.” Olivia Thatcher explained.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore.” Finn shook his head and decisively started the car. Whatever has happened has happened, overthinking was pointless, especially when he remembered he still had a nagging task at hand.
In the room, staring at Jay Sommer, who was coldly busy tidying up, Emma couldn’t help but ask tauntingly, “Are you his woman too?”
“No, I will not become the young master’s woman,” Jay Sommer glanced at Emma and answered indifferently, even though her body was no different from a human’s, and even more perfect than any human’s.
“Then why are you doing this? For money? Or for something else? Young Master? He really is quite the young master, huh?” Emma couldn’t help questioning.
“What I can tell you is that you’ve met the best man in the world, none compare,” Jay Sommer spoke calmly, as if stating a fact.
“You sure are confident of that.” Emma scoffed disdainfully, pondered for a moment, then continued, “Does he have other women?
“Yes, and according to my calculation, there’s a 97-3% chance that his spouse will not be you,” Jay Sommer didn’t pause from her work.
“Hmph, as if I care. I may have shared his bed, but I’m not like other women who would make a fuss over nothing. Isn’t it just sleeping together? Is that even worth mentioning in this modern society? If we get along with each other, we live together; if we don’t, we just separate. He slept with me, but I also slept with him!” Emma snorted and gave a cold huff.
Jay Sommer didn’t argue with her, but turned around and went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
For the next few days, Finn didn’t dare to go to Emma’s. It wasn’t because Finn was afraid to face Emma, but he guessed that her body probably hadn’t recovered yet. A recovered Emma and Finn with no self-control was a nope. However, on the fourth day, Finn received a piece of information from Zero in his mind.
“Mission: Initial establishment of base completed. Mission completion rate 120%, reward: 800 units of T-800 type armed robots, 200 units of T-900 type engineering robots, 20 units of T-1000 type armed robots, and one warship equipped with Baidiao-class electromagnetic railgun cannons.” Zero’s voice echoed.
“The mission is completed? So soon?” Finn unconsciously blurted out. However, as soon as the words were out of his mouth, he realized that it had been a full 8 days since he returned, meaning 80 days had passed in that space-time. Including the first batch of 3,200 children who traveled with the ships, another 1,800 people transported in these days wasn’t difficult.
“Yes, if we start using the T-900 for construction now and we exchange all material, we could finish in approximately 15 days. However, we would need 50 units of the T-900, and the material exchange points would cost around 100,000.” Henry Lewis quickly explained.
Choosing between a year and fifteen days is a no-brainer, but all the T-900s had been sent to another time-space by Finn. When looking at the points for an exchange here, Finn found the T-900 points were thankfully not too costly, only 500 more than the T-800, just 5,500 points.
50 units would only cost 275,000 points, and with material costs of 100,000 points, it wouldn’t exceed 375,000 points. Finn currently had 900,000 points left in his hand.
“Okay, I’ll leave it all to you.” After a moment, Finn readily agreed.
“Okay, then I’ll provide a detailed plan for you and send it to Olivia. Some things will need your cooperation for maximum secrecy.” Henry Lewis said.
Finn nodded. This was not a problem. With their computational abilities, Henry and Olivia’s plan wouldn’t likely have any flaws.
After hanging up with Henry, Finn waited for them to finalize the plan. Not long after hanging up, his phone rang. Picking it up, he saw it was Prince.
“Hey, man, you planning on disappearing or something?” Prince asked as soon as Finn answered the call.
“What’s up? Geez, can’t I be busy?” Finn retorted.
“You busy, my foot! The old class head called me today, asking why you weren’t there. School started today, bro! You should at least show your face. You didn’t spend the whole vacation drained by your five assistant chicks, did you?”
Prince chuckled..
