Chapter 452 - "A Way To Attract Their Attentions"
Ainsley did contact Geraldine right away. She messaged him, asking him if he could help her with the license matter.
Unfortunately, 2 days passed by and thereâs no reply whatsoever.
Ainsley then decided to call the grandpa...but this was what she got.
[Iâm sorry, the number youâre calling is out of reach. Please â¢â¢â¢â¢ ]
Ainsley couldnât hear the rest of the automatic message ringing in her ears. The baby already lowered her handphone and looked at the ceiling with a blank gaze.
âOut...of...reach? Isnât he in the capital? Or maybe heâs travelling somewhere that the signal wonât reach? This...isnât the timing too bad??â
Little did Ainsley know that Geraldine was indeed travelling out of the capital. In fact, heâs not even on the human continent anymore...
Because heâs picking up a young alchemist elf from the elven continent!
The elves set up a huge disturbance tool to prevent the humans from contacting anyone on the Elven continent. Thus, Ainsley couldnât reach Geraldine even if she wanted to.
And the old man spent approximately two weeks on his trip, leaving Ainsley with no reply or news.
A week went by in vain, and Ainsleyâs face already looked like a walking zombie.
"What to do...that mysterious old man wonât answer my call...and even Zack..."
Ainsley also called Jake, but she didnât know that the one accompanying Geraldine to the Elven continent was none other than Jake, someone who had quite a good relationship with the elves.
Thus, she couldnât contact the two people that she needed the most!
While Ainsley was strolling around her mansion with a dead-pan face, another phone call drove her to the edge.
[Sloan Family Head, you have rented the whole Billios Auction Hall in advance, but you havenât used it for weeks. The deadline will be at the end of the month. If you still donât use the hall...]
The caller paused before continuing.
[We will assume that you cancel the reservation, and a sudden cancellation will automatically put your family on our hallâs blacklist.]
Ainsley almost fainted.
The heck?! Getting blacklisted? By the Billios Family on top of that?
Ainsley knew that the Billios Family was a true big shot...that she didnât dare to offend right now.
But to think she would get blacklisted because of the auction hall problem...
Why is she so unlucky?!
Before Ainsley could reply, the caller already cut her off.
[Thatâs it, Lady Sloan. Have a nice day.]
The caller cut the call half-way, leaving only the dialling tone behind.
"...."
Ainsley slowly looked at her black phone screen and paused. Her mind was in a mess, and she truly almost cried right away.
However, the baby took a deep breath instead and exhaled.
"Huuu....this seems to be a dead-end...." Ainsley muttered to herself as she walked back to her office.
Her plan to make a potion auction didnât seem to go well because of the Roane alchemist guildâs interference...
âShould I attack the whole guild and make them unlucky? Or maybe sneak into the guild masterâs office and charm him?â
The effect of an anti-charm potion wouldnât last for days.
At that time, if she could make the guild master give her license application to the headquarter, everything would progress.
As for whether the headquarter would grant her the license or not, it was another matter.
Ainsley was close to doing all sorts of illegal things since sheâs a mafia, anyway...but in the end, the baby paused and shook her head.
âHa....no, no, those actions will only further muddy the water...â
Ainsley rubbed her chin as she sat behind her office desk. The baby seemed to be in a daze even though sheâs currently thinking hard.
âI shall not use force to make the Roane Alchemist Guild submit...but I need to attract the headquartersâ attention...â
Ainsleyâs goal was to get the headquarters permission in the end. But she had to go through the branch guild...which was why she couldnât solve the trouble.
If she only needed to attract the headquartersâ attention to her potion business...
Ainsley rubbed her temple and slowly rose from the chair.
âMaybe I shall take a risk and create trouble.â
The baby walked back and forth inside the office, deep in thoughts.
Sheâs still thinking about what trouble to create...and she suddenly recalled the Walter Familyâs press conference a while ago.
They announced their partnership with the Sloan Family before the Sloan Family said anything.
That made her notice the Walter Familyâs intention, thus getting in touch with them.
âA press conference, huh...â
Ainsley slowly tugged the corner of her lips.
Sheâs enlightened!
The babyâs eyes lit up. She hurriedly went to contact Grandpa Yoyo while grinning from ear to ear.
Thatâs it! A press conference. I shall attract the massâ attention...including the alchemist guild headquarter!
The internet was a wonderful thing, after all. With just one evening news, one could change a lot of things.
That evening, Ainsley prepared her press conference, and without waiting any longer, she spoke in front of tons of journalists she invited.
"Today, our Sloan Family will announce a new business that we will soon open for the public!"
Ainsley didnât bother to use her cutesy language since she needed to look intimidating and charismatic.
In this situation, her tamed inner demons helped her very well to create an intimidating aura, silencing the journalists and others in the main hall.
Even Grandpa Yofan and Ainsleyâs close people were stunned.
Thereâs something wrong with the family head...
She looks more...intimidating yet charismatic!
Not knowing her peopleâs thoughts, the baby swept her gaze at the crowd before speaking.
"Our Sloan Family...will hold a potion auction in seven days!"
Her words threw the people in the hall into utter chaos.
A potion auction??
