Chapter one hundred and four

She knew that his sudden approval means he is devising another devilish act. His calm demeanor couldn't be trusted.
Carl almost burst into laughter at her thought but knew he would be thought mad if he did. That girl is indeed an entertainment too him.
"If I'm to send people in her stead, I will need a replacement for them" he said.
He was indeed taking his time because he really wants to shock the hell out of Renny. She will never be able to predict what he intends to do.
"I knew it" Renny thought gritting her teeth.
Renny's mother was really naive when it comes to detecting people. She was still getting along happily. She felt to give people won't be hard. She has lot of them even if they ain't as qualified as the Devikings's.
"That won't be an issue sir" she said quickly.
Carl waved his hand.
"Nah I shouldn't ask too much from you because you are not the one who broke the vase".
" She's my daughter"she quickly said.
"Oh" he said as if he never knew. "Well then you should take responsibility" he added.
" I will be glad to sir" she nodded.
"Mum don't fall for his tricks" Renny thought in her heart.
She really wished she could say it out loud to her mother.
"The only person who seem to know where to get the vase is my personal assistant and ofcourse I won't let him go alone. He has to be accompanied by at least a maid and two guys"
Renny didn't know why he is just beating around the bush, putting them in unnecessary suspense.
"Just get on with what you have in that your big head and let us have our peace" she thought with a rebellious look.
" Peace? You? No darling your peace has been taken from you the moment you tend to defile me" he thought and glared at her but he quickly adjusted.
"So how many replacement are you in need of sir?" Renny's mother's voice broke into their thoughts.
She wasn't even aware of the look they were giving each other. All she was concerned about is how to settle the matter.
"Not to bother you ma'am..." He gave a dry smile.
" What a fake" Renny snorted.
"Don't care" he said inwards. "I can easily replace the guys and maid but I can't say that for my personal assistant. So I think one will do" he said politely.
Renny's mother smiled. She thought it would be easy to do.
The smile on her mother's face was making Renny frown. She knew she wasn't thinking deep and was only getting excited.
"What is your criteria for the person you want to use for the replacement?" She asked.
He shook his head.
" I don't have any".
"Sir....."
This got the poor woman confused.
"I only want her" he said plainly pointing at Renny.
Renny widen her eyes. As if she knew he was coming up with an evil plan.
" No way! You must be joking. I would rather go to Africa than to be your silly personal assistant" she rushed out irascibly.
" Renny!" Her mother called sternly.
"Mum" she said like she's going to cry.
She indeed felt like crying. She knew everything the guy was saying was going to fall back to her.
"Say anymore word there and you are really dead" she warned angrily.
She felt she was trying to make everything work out and Renny was using her big mouth to ruin all. She was really getting angry. She wondered what few days of assisting could do to hurt her.
"What a proud little girl" she thought in her heart.
" Even your mother knows you are proud" Carl thought.
There was also another thought in her heart. This is a Devikings and working for them will give her lots of benefits. She didn't even try to disagree with her working for him.
"For how many days are we talking about?"
" Gideon" he called.
Then a guy who as been standing not far from them moved closer to him.
"Yes sir".
"How long did it take to produce that vase in my room?" He asked not sparing the guy a glance.
"Seven month sir".
"What!" Renny exclaimed. "Just for a vase?"
She shouted before realizing her mother's earlier warnings.
When she saw the look her mother gave her, she covered her mouth with her hand quickly, giving her an apologetic look.
Even the woman was so surprised at the longevity at which the production of just a vase took. She wondered what it was made of.
"Liar" Renny thought.
"I told you it was a rare vase and it's one of its kind. You then should know that the making will take a long time" Carl said blankly with no expression on his face.
If he hadn't controlled his expression he wouldn't be able to hide his shock too when his housekeeper said seven month.
