Chapter 564: The Miller Family Choices

Listening to the conversation of the two, Minos looked at Ruth and asked. "Do you also have many individuals who court you in your sect?"

"I don't know if there are many or few. But yes, there are some, just as in Abby's case." She answered quickly, as she had one of her hands held by Minos and walked through that Miller family property.

Minos then brought the two women into his embrace as he smiled and said in a joking tone. "Ah, how hard it is to date such beautiful women... So many problems I will have in the future just because of that...."

historical

Hearing this, the two young women smiled together with Minos as they realized that he was not worried about this and that such a thing would not be a problem for them in the future.

Some men could get very angry that other people had interests in their women and sometimes even try to court them. But Minos was not like this. Not because he wouldn't mind such situations, he really wouldn't like his women to be courted by others.

In fact, he would even be willing to kill someone who tried to cross the line with one of his women.

But no matter how much he disliked these situations, how far he was willing to go to prevent this kind of thing from happening, it would not work. After all, people would not stop looking, imagining things, and even falling in love with those they shouldn't.

And what could he do about it? Act like an insecure individual who lives worrying about the possibility of a future betrayal happening? Be a coward who cannot trust his women? Try to act against everything and everyone?

No, acting this way would not do him or his partners any good. On the contrary, it would only create more stress for both parties, and the chances of something actually happening would only increase.

After all, there would always be those brave individuals who would even risk their lives to sleep with some beauties. Hence, if a woman wanted to cheat on her partner or the opposite, there would be no shortage of people willing to help them fulfill this kind of desire...

So, worrying about all those who liked his girlfriends and trying to keep them from living in the same cities or areas as such people would have no practical effect.

The only thing one could do in situations like this was the most simple and obvious. That was to be with reliable people, partners who are with you for deeper feelings and not for pure convenience.

There was no point in having a stable relationship, as in the marriage example, if you constantly worried about what your wife does when you are not around. In such a situation, the best thing to do would be to end the relationship and finally have the opportunity to live your life in peace, without such worries.

And Minos believed this faithfully. He was not the kind of man who would date just to be with someone. No, being alone has to be better than being with someone you don't trust, who would only bring you headaches. As such, this young man did not have the mentality of the average man, who would stress over the fact that other people were interested in his women.

He knew that, everywhere, his partners would be desired by millions. But he would not stress about it nor try to show the world in some pathetic way how he is the only one worthy of them. That is because he was very confident in his abilities, and he also believed that no matter how hard others tried, his women would not accept these attempts.

And it was not surprising that he had only two girlfriends, although he had been with several other women, who might have been interested in having a more stable relationship with him.

He only had feelings for Ruth and Abby, and they were the only ones he felt he could trust. In this case, there was no reason for him to worry about the existence of these people who liked these two, as in Cole's case.

If they tried something, he would take action since he would never accept other people touching his women. But otherwise, he would live with his women without that kind of concern.

Anyway, and even if there was a possibility that someday something would happen, like a betrayal, he could only act after such a thing happened.

Minos knew that there were always possibilities as long as someone was alive and that you could never fully trust someone. But hell, you can't be suspicious of everyone and everything all the time.

How miserable must it be not to be able to trust anyone even a little?

He certainly didn't want to live the life of a coward who was perhaps afraid of his own shadow...

So, even if bad things could happen in any relationship, he would only be with those he trusted and felt safe with.? And if even then something happened, he would just deal with it after the fact.

There was no way to avoid this. After all, free will existed!

And that was Minos' character, the way he viewed relationships in this vast world. This personality made him able to act that way, laughing at this situation that would stress many.

"Mmm~"

"Mmmm~"

The two women moaned in low voices as Minos' hands suddenly made some surgically precise movements on sensitive parts of both of their bodies.

"Abby, that's enough walking for today. Let's go to your residence. I will take care of you two before my next cultivation session."

...

Time quickly passed, and the moment had finally come for young Stuart to meet with the high-level elders of the Miller family.

After the deadline given by Eliot to Minos had passed, all the people necessary for this event to happen had arrived at the family headquarters and made themselves aware of the situation.

As a result, once everything was ready for this event to take place, Eliot escorted Minos to the place where the elders of this power would meet with this young man in a large meeting hall in the headquarters building.

In addition to Eliot, the other 11 of the 12 members of the high-level Elder Council, which consisted of the family patriarch, the supreme elder, and the other ten highest-level elders, except himself, everyone was already there, talking and waiting for Minos.

They were all very concerned about this possibility that Minos was bringing due to the gravity that such a thing represented for the family.

Regardless of the outcome of a deal with this young man, the mere fact that they were considering becoming the strongest organization in the kingdom would cause the royal family to view this organization with suspicion.

That is, what ruler would let another power within his kingdom overtake him?

Sooner or later, such a thing would result in a rebellion when the stronger party decided that it should have more rights and more powers. And as such, if the ruler allows such a thing to happen, he would only achieve his own end, along with the destruction of his family!

That would be terrible!

Because of this, the Miller family had a big problem to solve at this moment.

That is because, contrary to what one might think, making decisions like this is not as easy as it may seem.

In fact, trying to take advantage of opportunities seems like an exciting thing to do, something that will guarantee you better chances to achieve your goals, dreams, in short, a better position. But such a thing had risks for the Miller family that made this choice challenging to make.

After all, nothing would be certain, and just as they could succeed in such an endeavor, they could fail miserably, to the point of falling to a state much worse than their current one.

What to do?

Not take risks in order to gain greater power and have their stability maintained?

Or take the risk of becoming enemy number one of the central organization in the kingdom, but get the chance to reach an even higher level?

These were the Miller family's options if these 12 elders could believe that Minos would keep his promises!

Anyway, Eliot finally entered that hall accompanied by Minos and the young man's two girlfriends. He then said aloud before sitting down in an empty seat nearby. "Elders, this is Minos Stuart..."
