Kate completely ignored Susan’s complaints, as she just focused on Michael, waiting for his response.

Due to how focused she was, she did not usually enjoy the thrill of going shopping like the other girls. And the two times that she had just mentioned, it was Susan who pulled her along.

Most of the time, when she was free, she would go to train, like the time that she had met with Michael at the shooting range.

But now, she wanted to explore what was so fun about shopping, especially for those that usually claimed that shopping with their boyfriends was usually fun.

Even though she and Michael had not started dating, she believed that they would eventually. In any case, she had decided, if not him, then it was better not to date at all.

Michael thought about Kate’s request, and thought that it was not a bad idea. He himself had not frequently visited the mall.

Since he came to this city, he had only gone to the mall once. And later on, most of the things that were needed at home, were usually bought by Adrian., including his clothes.

“Okay. But, not today. Let’s do it tomorrow. For now, I still have something that I need to take care of.” Michael responded eventually.

Since he had just learned another skill, he was not planning to stop midway. Instead, he was planning to push it all the way to the expert level.

If not for Kate coming to look for him, he would have continued with pushing the skill to the expert level without stopping midway.

Kate was initially disappointed, but then, she cheered up the moment that Michael mentioned that they would do it tomorrow. If he had said that they would do it another day, after she had joined that secret organization, she felt it would be troublesome.

Additionally, she felt that she needed to bond more with Michael before she left. That way, she would at least leave a deep impression on him, making it difficult for him to forget about her.

Even though Michael had said that they could contact each other after she joined the organization, she understood that it was not that simple. For an organization that was so secretive, it was not that easy for them to allow the members to have contact with other people easily.

They could make contact, but it would not be frequent. Additionally, since she was just going to join, there was always the possibility that she might be restricted for the first few months or even years.

If she disappeared for years, would Michael not forget about her? That was something that she did not want to see happen.

“Okay. We will be going now. I’ll see you tomorrow, the first thing in the morning. And by the way, I will be here for breakfast.” Kate said.

For now, she was planning to go back to pack her things, and make all the necessary preparations that she could. That way, tomorrow, she would not have to worry about not being ready to leave.

She could spend the entire day freely, shopping with Michael. She did not want any kind of distraction during that time.

Michael nodded in agreement. But just as Kate was about to turn around and leave, Susan suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her back.

Looking at Kate’s confused gaze, Susan said, “You previously told me that the food here is way better than the one that is prepared by a master chef of a five-star restaurant.

Additionally, we just left without informing the chef about our departure. I’m sure that he is very angry right now, because we made him cook food, yet we did not eat. So, the chances of us having him prepare the food for us again would be very low.

Now, I have to test the food that you are always boasting about.”

Kate was left speechless when she heard this. She wanted to refuse, but she saw that Susan was so persistent. It was clear, Susan was not going to give up on this issue.

It was just that, she was helpless on this matter. After all, this was Michael’s house, not hers. She could not make a decision on something like this.

So, she helplessly looked at Michael, asking for his help. And upon seeing this, Michael just nodded at Adrian, who rose up and went to the kitchen.

When Susan noticed this, she was surprised. But at the same time, she felt relieved.

Considering all the surprises that she had seen this time, she thought that Michael would be the one that would be cooking. If it was true that his culinary skills were top notch, then, he would be a monster.

As for the surprise, it was mainly due to the fact that Adrian did not look the part. Looking at him, he looked like a high-ranking executive, much more like a CEO.

But here, he was being tasked to do things by Michael. This made her wonder, just what kind of background did Michael have to be able to order Adrian around?

The reason why she could think like this was simply because she did not know about the relationship between Michael and Adrian. Well, the relationship that Michael had forged.

As for the identity that was prepared by the system for Adrian, it was completely different. If someone did the investigation on Adrian, if they had the ability to do so, they would realize that Adrian and Michael were not related at all, despite sharing the same surname.

“Let’s go. Just wait for a moment, the food will be here in no time.” Kate said as she pulled Susan towards the dining area.

Even though she wanted to go back and make the preparations, and had also eaten here not long ago, it had been over an hour now.

Currently, she could feel that some space had opened up in her stomach, and was intending to fill it up to the brim once again. That way, she would have more energy to be able to do all that she needed to do today.

Susan was surprised by Kate’s enthusiasm. Still, she sat at the table, waiting. And when the food was served several minutes later, she was amazed by the aroma.

And when she tasted the food itself, she was completely captivated. At the same time, she finally understood why Kate claimed that this was the best food that she had ever had.

It turned out that she was not lying. This was actually true. As compared to the dishes that were prepared by the chefs in the five-star hotels that she had visited, that food was trash.

So, she began ravenously eating forgetting her ladylike image. And unlike Kate who had eaten not long ago, she was still hungry. So, she ate most of the food that was prepared for them.

It was only when her stomach could not handle more food that she finally stopped. And at the same time, she looked kind of embarrassed, especially as she looked at the direction that Michael and Adrian were in.

She was only relieved when she realized that Michael and Adrian did not seem to pay much attention to them. Instead, they were busy doing their own things.

’I almost forgot that I am a lady. And, if I eat too much, I might end up ruining my figure. That would have a great impact on my future as a movie star.’ Susan thought to herself.

’But, it is not too bad to eat like this occasionally…once a day will do as well. As long as I don’t eat too much, it will be okay, right?’ Susan continued thinking to herself.

“Are we leaving or not? If you want to stay, then do. But, I still need to go.” Kate’s voice suddenly brought Susan out of her thoughts.

She reacted quickly, and the two of them bid farewell to Michael and Adrian, before they left.

Michael on the other hand remained behind, pushing the architecture skill to the expert level. And with that, he earned 6,011 points, bringing his SP balance to 100,377 points.

After he finished pushing the skill to the expert level, Michael contemplated. Previously, he had thought about giving Kate an evolution serum and the adaptive dermal lattice armor.

As long as she had these two, her safety would almost be completely guaranteed. But he thought against it.

For the evolution serum, according to the system, unless someone had reached the maximum potential of the human genes, it was impossible to take the serum.

As for the armor, Michael was worried that it would raise concerns. After all, if she was suddenly shot several times, and the bullets did not pierce through her, it would raise questions.

At that time, there was even a possibility that Kate might be taken to the lab, to be dissected to understand how she was capable of resisting bullets purely with her body.

That would put her at risk. Additionally, there was a possibility that they might end up linking this to him, no matter how low the possibility. At that time, it will be troublesome for him.

He was not afraid, especially as he checked his current SP balance. With over 100,000 points, he could easily get over 900 bio humans that were of the same make as Adrian.

But if he just focused on soldiers, those that were focused on combat, he could acquire even more. And if they had the ADLA, it would be impossible for them to be defeated, even if an entire army came for them.

All that they needed to do was to just stay within the city. That way, there was no way that the government would launch a bomb towards them, right?

To cut the story short, it was impossible for Michael to do any of those two, as it would be problematic. But, it was not much of a problem for him to be able to have a bio human look after Kate.

Thinking about it, he quickly spent 110 SP to make the purchase. Lucky for him, the system could actually help him in integrating the ADLA. So, after spending a total of 610 points, the arrangement was made.
