I Married An Immortal (The Alchemists)

Chapter 16 - Life is Not Fair!

"Thank you for your treat," Caspar said politely after finishing both chicken rice servings. "I've never eaten at such a Michelin restaurant before."

"You're welcome," Finland answered with a wide smile plastered on her face. "If I win the bet, I can take you to dinner at your chosen Michelin Restaurant."

"Are you serious?" Caspar asked with a cheeky smile. "What if I'm like Steve Jobs? His salary from Apple was only $1 per month. If you won our bet and get my one-month salary from Continental Hotel, you would only get 1 dollar. Even to eat chicken rice here, it wouldn't be enough."

Finland immediately grabbed Caspar's collar in a panic, "No! Seriously? Do you only get paid 1 dollar per month from the hotel? How much is your salary from the hospital? What about the University? Did I just make a bet for only 1 dollar????"

Caspar laughed and fixed his collar. "I am just kidding."

He took out his cellphone and opened something on Google, then showed it to Finland.

"See this Schneider Group? It's mine. It has hundreds of subsidiaries. I can even give one company to you if I lost. You will immediately become rich..."

Finland let go of Caspar's collar and stared at his cellphone with her mouth agape... Caspar must be joking!

She was familiar with most of the companies because they were quite famous and actively appeared in the media. There were furniture companies, real estate companies, export-import companies, financial services, insurance companies, hotels, and so many more...

"You're are always joking around! I can't take you seriously," she said to him. Finland had no doubt that Caspar was a wealthy person. She remembered how difficult it was to find information about Caspar on the internet and how his two personal guards hushed the people who were taking pictures of him when waiting for chicken rice earlier. They even took their phones to delete the pictures already taken!

But to imagine that Caspar could so easily give one company to Finland if he were to lose the bet...

While if Finland were to lose, he only asked for a kiss ...

Subconsciously Finland touched her lips... She stared at Caspar with a confused look.

"Why are you staring at me like that? Are you ready to lose?" The guy asked in a teasing tone. "Want to just kiss me here and now?"

"Ugh... shameless," said Finland. "I will work hard and train the staff to recognize rich people. You will lose, wait and see."

"I look forward to it." Caspar got to his feet and looked at his watch, "I have a meeting with the business unit in the United States in half an hour. I'll take you home now."

"No need, you're really busy. I can go home by myself."

Finland wanted to refuse but Caspar pulled her hand towards the black Maybach waiting not far from the hawker center. He opened the door and entered after Finland.

"We stop by the Rose Mansion first, Ben," he said, closing the door.

The car moved immediately.

"How do you know where I live???" Finland asked, stunned.

"Please... Miss Finland. I can know anything about you." Caspar opened his laptop and started working while Finland could only frown unsatisfied.

"It's not fair... You can know everything about me, but I don't know anything about you. Only this afternoon I finally know your full name..."

Caspar stopped typing for a moment and looked at Finland, "What do you want to know about me?"

"I want to know... who you really are..." Finland pursed her lips trying to look fierce. "And why are you trying to meet me all the time."
