Chap 38

Geo went out like that.
His hair is still wet and disheveled.
He glanced at the men outside their gate.

'8? I expected more but oh well.'
He went out of the gate and they started to glance at the beauty with coveted eyes.
After bonding together to shooed the legal husband they all look at each other like they are all thieves.

Geo hides his smirks behind his wide sleeves.

"So?" He started.

"Me first! My name is Nelson."

Geo blinks.
The man looks alright but he his cheek is swollen.

"Hm?"

"I am a merchant's son."

"Oh my~ You have no profession on your own?" Geo chuckles.

Nelson froze and swallowed.
"I am a merchant too. An apprentice. But I will surely inherit my father's company."

"Well..Are you the only son?" Geo asks.

"I....I am the eldest."

"Oh my~ Then it is not guaranteed?"

"I....I....."

"I am!" Another man butts in and pushes Nelson aside.
"I am a noble. My father is a Baron and I am the eldest son.
I will inherit my father's title and rule over our territory."

Geo gasps.
"Oh. That's good then." He giggles.
"So?"

"Eh?" Nelson and the Baron's son tilt their head. "I thought you...."

Geo smiles.
"You start saying this and that but what is it to me?"

They all look at him.
Geo smiles with a squint in his eyes.
"I don't really mind you all bragging but I Do not have all the time so can you all say what you want and be gone?"

Gasps.
"Wait. I want to marry you!"

"Yeah, me too."

"I want you to give birth to my children."

"My~ If I agree to marry. Who would I choose? I am only one afterall and there's quite a few of you."
He asks as he tilts his head.

Everyone looked relieved and shouted one after another.
There are some who started getting violent.

Geo watches them with a grin.

Yu sighs and makes his horse walk forward.

"You lied to me. You said you and your husband are travellers."

Geo looks up and frowns.
"Who? Wait..Aren't you the one who rudely grabs me before?" He raised a brow.

"I don't think of any reason for you to lie about meeting me before." Yu said with a look of melancholy.

Geo tilts his head.
"I don't understand."

"Don't lie." Yu insists.

Geo glares.
"Sorry. I don't know who you are, except, from meeting you as a pervert who is grabbing people's hand and leaving without an apology. Aside from that...aren't you just mistaken?"

Yu frowns.
"I rarely made a mistake. Even if you had a mask and you were wearing a different cloth, I know it was you."

Geo frowns.
"Making assumptions based on your past glory. I don't really know what you want. It is not me. Cause it was not me. But you can believe what you want to believe. If that is all, leave."

Geo turns around and walks to the gate.

"Wait. What about us?" The others ask.

Geo look at them.
"What about you?" He asks.
