Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Can We Share?
“What do you mean by you’re leaving?”

Pat looked at Arit in surprise for a moment when he heard her ask such a strange question and he raised a brow as he asked her if Mark didn’t tell her anything. Arit glanced from Pat to Mark and then back at Pat again as she wondered what was going on: Tell me about what?

Pat just pursed his lips in annoyance before he waved as he started to leave the room. He couldn’t deal with this shit. It always gave him a bad feeling in his liver when he saw lovers acting like idiots.

“Ask your boyfriend about it. I have other things to do. Mark, you need to tell her things like this before bringing her. Don’t use me for bullshit like this, you bastard. The room service should be arriving soon, and you need to go register the room in your name before the end of the day.”

Arit turned to Mark immediately. Mark was leaning back against the couch and he grinned as he saw Arit frowning at him in confusion. Arit took a step towards Mark as she asked.

“What are you hiding from me? You’re planning something again, aren’t you? You always look like that when you’re about to do something you know will piss me off! Just tell me already!”

Mark chuckled.

“Well… I thought about it for some time, and I’m not really comfortable with us living in that other apartment since people can come and go as they please. There’s no security at all, and now that the world knows that I’m a superhuman, we can’t be too careful. So, I made a few calls and found the place with the best possible security for us to stay in. Turns out it was this hotel.”

Arit’s eyes widened as she looked around the house in shock. There was no way! Mark couldn’t be trying to say what Arit was thinking right now! Learning about the cars that Mark bought was already too much for Arit to fully understand, and now Mark was trying to add even more confusion to her already muddled head!

Mark bought this!?

He really bought out this penthouse for them to live in!? Arit couldn’t even wrap her mind around it! The amount of money that it would take to stay overnight in a place like this is something that Arit didn’t even dream of ever seeing in her bank account! This is the kind of place that you go to for a vacation or a getaway and waste a lot of money on it! It is a once-in-a-lifetime vacation destination! But Mark was renting it out for them to stay in!?

“Welcome home, Arit. I hope you like it.”

Arit swallowed as she suddenly felt like her mouth was too dry for her to talk properly.

“I… I love it. I absolutely love it. But.. isn’t it, like.. expensive. I don’t know. Are you sure about staying here? We can live in a smaller place and hire some guards, can’t we? Mark, this… isn’t this too much?”

Arit was still in disbelief as she looked around the place and Mark just chuckled as he came up to her and wrapped his hand around her waist. Arit’s hand came up to his chest and she looked up at his smiling face. Mark leaned down and kissed her forehead and Arit felt her face heating up in embarrassment as she noticed Pat and Jeanne looking away from both of them.

Mark continued talking as if he and Arit were the only ones there.

“I know there are cheaper places, but I chose this hotel because I want the best. I don’t want what happened with the mailman to ever happen again. I’m not going to lose you just because I wanted to save some money.”

A pink blush dusted over Arit’s cheek at that moment, and Mark could feel how her entire body trembled from hearing what he said. Arit fisted his shirt happily before she buried her face in his chest to hide her blush from him!

Arit couldn’t utter a single word as her happiness threatened to suffocate her! How in the world could she say no to something like that!? How could she say no when Mark was doing all this just to protect her!? Mark was always doing this! He would go out of his way to make sure that she was safe and Arit was starting to feel like she was too loved! This was just too much! She really loved him!

Arit spoke up as she wrapped her hand around Mark’s neck.

“I really like it, Mark. Thank you.”

Arit was still shocked that Mark got this place just because of the man she told him about. She only told him that there was a suspicious man, and he went and rented one of the most expensive apartments in the city for them to stay in!? Arit started to feel like she had to repay Mark somehow, but she couldn’t even start to imagine anything that could pay back the things that Mark had done for her. Was she going to keep receiving from Mark without ever being able to do anything meaningful for him? No! She had to do something for him! She would think of something later and give it to him as a thank you.

“Ugh. Come on, let’s get out of here.”

Jeanne spoke up as she picked up her own bag and started to leave the house, and Mark couldn’t help but chuckle as he noticed Patrick was already leaving without saying a single word. There was a look of irritation on the faces of both Pat and Jeanne, and Mark could only watch with a smile as Jeanne followed her brother. Those two are definitely siblings. They even have the same reaction to public displays of affection.

Mark told Patrick goodbye, and Pat just waved back at Mark as he left the apartment with his sister. Tilda leaned over the couch as she spoke.

“Big Brother. Is this really your new house?”

Mark grinned.

“Yup. You like it?”

“It’s awesome! It’s so huge!”

Mark and Arit both laughed at Talia’s reaction as she raised her hand in the air and exclaimed in wonder. Mark told them that the moving company would bring their things around later, so they didn’t need to go anywhere. They only had to choose their rooms.

“I want the big one!”

Talia immediately jumped from the couch and started to run out of the room, and Mark chuckled as he looked down at Arit and asked her what room she wanted. Arit twirled a strand of her hair around her finger as she looked down at her feet in embarrassment. Mark raised a brow and asked her what was wrong, and Arit finally muttered out her thoughts.

Mark’s brows furrowed in confusion as he tried to understand what she said. She was barely audible, and even with his advanced hearing, he could barely understand her.

“What? I didn’t get that.”

“C-Can we share a room – Y-You know what, never mind! I’m leaving! Talia, wait for me!”

Arit quickly scurried away before she could get her thoughts out, and Mark just laughed as he finally understood what she was trying to say. His girlfriend was too shy.
