The Ultimate Beast World Glow-Up novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51 A Deal on the Table

Rosalie felt like she had just uncovered a huge secret. Her mind exploded with shock.

So even in the beastman world, split personalities could exist?

She turned her head and ran straight into a pair of flowing blue eyes. She called softly, “Julien.”

Julien lifted a hand and gently brushed her brow. “Rosalie, your eyes are beautiful.”

Bang!

Leon set the plate of rice down on the table with a heavy thud. At the same time, Cameron scooped Rosalie up around the waist and threw her over his shoulder.

The sudden movement startled her. She slapped Cameron’s firm back hard and shouted, “Hey! Put me down!”

Cameron snapped at Julien in a harsh tone, “Food’s ready. Eat.

“And where are the cotton seeds?” he added. “Hand them over!”

He gripped Rosalie’s waist too tightly. She bit his shoulder in protest, and only then did he finally put her down.”

Rosalie fixed her messy hair and shot Cameron an angry look. Then she turned to Julien and said politely, “Sorry, Julien. My husband doesn’t know better.

any

“Go ahead,” she urged. “Try the rice.”

Julien didn’t hold a grudge. He took a bite, then set his spoon down.

“Where did you get this?”

Rosalie had expected this. A merchant like Julien would never ignore rice.

“I found it in the forest,” she said.

She stopped there on purpose. Julien followed up calmly, “What do you want?”

“I want to work with you,” Rosalie said. “I’ll supply the rice. You provide a storefront. I want to open a rice shop.”

Julien raised an eyebrow. “Do you know how much money it takes to run a shop?

“Your rice tastes good, but not everyone will like it.

“This is a risky business for me.”

Rosalie knew he wouldn’t trust her so easily.

“I did my homework before coming,” she said calmly.

“The pork stew and erratic poultry dishes I made doubled the profits of the inn.

“If I can make one dish that popular, I can make many more.

“If you agree, I’ll provide one new dish every month.

“And I’ll split the rice shop’s profits with you fifty-fifty.”

Her eyes shone as she spoke. She laid everything out clearly, doing her best to earn Julien’s

trust.

Anyone could see she was nothing like the bossy, incompetent Rosalie from a month ago.

Leon watched her quietly. His gaze was different now. The current matriarch could stand on her own. Leon was more than willing to support her from behind.

No matter what Rosalie chose to do, he would be there. He didn’t find that shameful at all. Watching her grow stronger and more confident was the greatest luck of his life.

Julien looked at Rosalie for a long moment. She met his eyes without fear.

Business deals should never be rushed. That was Rosalie’s rule.

After a while, Julien smiled faintly. The sharp look in his eyes softened as he reached out his hand. “Rosalie, happy to work together.”

Rosalie shook his hand firmly. “Julien, happy to work together with you.”

Julien handed her the cotton seeds. As he left, Rosalie turned around and gave him a playful wink. “Julien, next time I won’t mistake you for someone else!”

This solved only half of her worries. The bigger problem remained. Growing rice and cotton would take many workers.

In the beast world, most men survived by hunting. Where was she supposed to find labor?

As Rosalie was thinking, a man suddenly stumbled and fell at her feet.

She jumped back in shock. Cameron instantly stepped in front of her and shouted, “Who are you?”

The beastman had a pretty face and tear-filled eyes, but his pupils darted around, sharp and calculating.

He wiped his tears and cried, “My family wants to sell me. I refused, so they beat me.

“Please, have mercy and take me in!”

“No!” Cameron snapped.

There was no way he would allow a random man to get close to Rosalie.
