Dominating Evolution Of The Cosmos 290 A Target For All Bonus For 600Ps

As they were twirling in the middle of the dance floor, Christina and Steve became the center of attention.
"You're not afraid they're targeting you?" Christina whispered to Steve.
"When you chose me as your partner, I was prepared to be your s.h.i.+eld," Steve whispered in Christina's ear.
"Thank you for helping me out," Christina said.
If Steve had not pulled her out to dance, her situation would have become extremely awkward. Christina could not directly reject these powerful young talents' advances, as it would embarra.s.s them. However, being pursued by them made Christina feel very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Steve saw Christina's predicament. So, he had pulled her out of the crowd under the pretext of dancing.
"It's my duty," Steve said.
Their brilliant dancing attracted many people's at10tions. In fact, the intimacy between the two of them made several people angry.
Soon, the song ended and the two left the dance floor. When Philip saw this, he immediately smiled and made an inviting gesture as he asked, "Beautiful Miss Christina, may I have the honor of this next dance?"
"I'm very sorry. I'm tired. I would like to rest for a bit," Christina refused him politely.
Philip retreated with an awkward smile. Just then, Douglas came up with a drink and laughed. "Miss Christina, have a drink and rest. Coincidentally, we have some business in the Wander City State, as we are seeking to collaborate with the Masa Group. I wonder if you are keen on this?"
Christina's eyes lit up as she said with a laugh, "Let's talk over there."
In this way, Christina, at the invitation of Douglas, went to a less crowded area of the room. Seeing Christina leave the dancefloor, more than a dozen young talents were stunned.
They had waited so long for Steve and Christina to finish dancing. But, before they could say anything, Christina went off with Douglas, leaving them with no chance with her at all!
Steve ignored the group of men and went to the dining area. As a food lover, he often cooked his own food.
Today's feast was delicious, filled with many delicacies that he had never seen or eaten before. Moreover, many of these delicious entrees were extremely precious, including the meat of the evolved Magical Beasts.
"Poor lad, you can't afford these delicacies in your everyday life. Eat more now, since you won't have a chance to eat later!" Franklin sneered.
In the eyes of the great n.o.bles from the Ares Council, Steve, a small n.o.bleman recognized only by the Stanlos Base Camp, was no different from any ordinary person. Many of the young talents began to sneer at Steve.
"You should feel lucky that Christina chose you as her male partner. After all, people from a small place have a narrow horizon."
"Pariah! How can you take part in such an occasion?"
Steve looked at them and said, "I'm more handsome than you, so Christina invited me to be her male partner."
Upon hearing that, Franklin and the others were very angry.

"Steve, Christina is not a pariah like you. I'll give you a million in original gold if you never contact Christina again," Philip said. In these people's eyes, money could resolve anything.
"Each of you will give me a million?" Steve looked at the more than dozen talented young men in front of him and asked.
Hardy and Douglas looked at each other, soon reaching a wordless understanding.
Hardy then confirmed, "Yes, one million from each of us. Take the money and leave right away."
He then added, "That's more than 10 million in original gold, which is an amount that you couldn't make in your entire lifetime."
Such an amount in original gold was a small amount to this group of people. So, they determined that it was a good deal for them, as long as it meant that Steve would go away!
Steve frowned and thought for a moment. He then shook his head and said, "No, 10 million in original gold is not a good deal for me. After all, Christina likes me very much. If I marry her, the Masa Group will belong to the both of us in the future."
He then added, "The market value of the Masa Group now exceeds 10 billion in original gold, and as long as the clown pharmacist's line of serums continues to sell so well, the value of the group will only increase in the future. You're basically asking me to give up 10 billion for just 10 million? I am no fool!"
After listening to Steve's a.n.a.lysis, they were all stunned. But, after they thought about it, what Steve said made sense.
"You want more money? Well… We have it!" Philip said coolly. "Even if you really do marry Christina, you both might not end up owning the Masa Group. Now, we will give you 100 million in original gold, but you must leave immediately."
He then added, "Think about it… Even if you marry Christina, you might not be ent.i.tled to a share of the wealth. But… If you agree to our deal now, you can a great amount of original gold immediately!"
"Are you saying that each of you will give me 100 million each?" Steve looked astonished as he questioned the group of people.
Hardy, Franklin, Jerry and more than a dozen others had awkward expressions on their faces. Despite their huge influences and their families having hundreds of billions in a.s.sets, they did not have that much original gold on them at the moment. They could easily afford 1 million in original gold on the spot, but not 100 million in original gold.
But in the end, they grit their teeth hard and all agreed...
"Alright! We will each give you 100 million!"
"As long as you leave Christina, each of us will give you 100 million in original gold."
"This amount of original gold will be enough for you to invest in all kinds of industries and get rich. Even if you put it in the bank, the interest alone can last you a lifetime."
"Okay. You can't be too greedy, young lad. You have to know when to stop. This is our final offer," Philip said coldly.
Steve did not expect that each of them would throw 100 million in original gold at him. Normally, he would not hesitate to agree to such a deal. After all, this was just a mission, and after today, he would have nothing to do with Christina.
But, Steve turned them down. "Sorry, I must reject your offer." Steve put down the dinner plate that was in his hand and wiped his mouth clean.
"You find such a great amount of original gold insufficient? Don't be too greedy, or else you will get nothing in the end," Philip said.
All of the others then joined in and started berating Steve...
"You're just Christina's male partner. You're not even her boyfriend. We've agreed to give you all of this original gold, which is more than enough."
"You're an insatiable and greedy man, who will get nothing in the end."
"Don't go too far, young lad. It's a great kindness for us to give you any money. Be mindful that we can make you disappear from this world anytime we want."
