I opened a clinic in the Abyss World

Nancy's expression froze; this guy's words always left people speechless.

"Goodbye, Doctor." Nancy walked toward the door.

Charlotte didn't expect her to leave so quickly. Was this some kind of feigned indifference?

However, it was still necessary to be polite on the surface, so he quickly got up and saw her out.

As soon as she opened the door, her pretty maid rushed forward anxiously, "Madam, something terrible has happened! We...we think we've lost our purse!"

"What?!" Nancy's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. "You mean, all the money we brought is gone?"

The maid knelt down with a thud, slapping her own face as she said remorsefully, "It's all my fault! It's all my fault for being careless and not keeping a close eye on the money. It must have been shaken out on the boat. I deserve to die! I'm so sorry!"

"Alright, I don't blame you. It's okay that the money is lost; we can just have someone bring it back." Nancy quickly stepped forward and grabbed the maid's hand, her eyes full of pity. "You've been with me for so many years; how can I bear to see you blaming yourself like this?"

Charlotte stood at the door, watching with great interest, almost ready to grab some melon seeds. The acting skills of the master and servant were far superior to those of any young heartthrob. The slaps left red marks on the delicate little face; the blows were surprisingly ruthless.

Mrs. Nancy, on the other hand, vividly portrays an elegant and gentle hostess, kind and full of humanity. She is truly a breath of fresh air among the aristocracy, commanding respect and affection.

"But we have no money. Where will you stay tonight, Madam? We haven't even found a hotel yet," the maid sobbed.

As they spoke, the master and servant both turned their gazes toward Charlotte, who was standing at the door.

Hey? Don't look at me! What are you looking at me for? Charlotte suddenly felt that this was no longer sweet. They'd finally revealed their true intentions, had they? He realized that from the very beginning, this master and servant had been after him!

"Doctor, look..." Nancy hesitated, her hands twisting nervously in front of her, her head bowed and eyes downcast, like a noblewoman who had fallen on hard times.

Although she didn't say anything, just that one look and that one gesture were enough to convey a thousand words.

  

Any man who sees her would say: "She's so pitiful."

Before leaving, Nancy said that she was not a casual person, implying that she was watching how you behaved.

The moment you step outside, you're given a chance to play the hero and save the damsel in distress.

If it were any other man, he would have emptied his pockets to help the beautiful woman through her current predicament, just to increase his own favorability rating.

Unfortunately, Charlotte was no ordinary man. She said with concern, "Oh, is that so? There's an inn in that alley over there. How about I get you two rooms to stay in? It's not expensive, only 10 copper coins a night."

Nancy and her maid were both stunned.

The driver slowly turned his face away, his body trembling slightly; it was clear he was struggling to hold it in.

"Don't be so touched. Although my own life is a mess, I just can't bear to see suffering in the world. I can afford this much money. When you're traveling, everyone encounters difficulties and unexpected events. As long as we help each other, we'll definitely get through it," Charlotte comforted her gently. As she spoke, she took out a handful of copper coins from her pocket and stuffed them into Nancy's hand without further ado. "This is enough for the three of you, master and servant, to eat simply for two days."

Nancy looked at the gleaming copper coins in her hand. She had forgotten when she last spent copper coins. The handful was heavy, with about eighty coins, but she didn't have a single silver coin.

Charlotte gave them eighty copper coins and told them to find an inn to stay at, and that she would also provide them with food and drink for two days.

He really made me cry my eyes out!

But looking up at Charlotte's sincere expression and clear eyes, she felt that he wasn't deliberately humiliating her, but rather genuinely trying to help her.

Combined with his earlier moving words, the copper coin in his hand seemed even heavier.

He seemed to be a kind person, but he was indeed very poor.

In the past, men driven by lust would have handed her their heavy purses of money.

No man can resist this combo yet.

No money...

Nancy looked up at Charlotte. Since she was already here, she couldn't just accept the 100,000 handling fee and call it a day, could she?

This man is quite good-looking and has an interesting personality. If we tied him up, locked him in a dark room, lit candles, and gave him a whip…

Charlotte sensed that Nancy's gaze seemed a bit strange, and the wildly upturned corners of her mouth suggested she was thinking something terrifying; her smile gradually became distorted.

Hehehehe...

Nancy suddenly burst out laughing.

……

The area in front of the clinic suddenly fell silent.

Nancy's laughter abruptly stopped as she noticed the other three looking at her with a hint of fear in their eyes.

I was careless! Nancy put on a gentle smile again, though it was tinged with a hint of embarrassment.

"Mrs. Nancy, why are you laughing all of a sudden?" Charlotte asked.

"I...I remembered something happy," Nancy replied seriously.

"I see." Charlotte looked at her, his intuition telling him that this was a dangerous woman, not someone to be trifled with.

"Mrs. Nancy, are you about to leave? So soon? Didn't you reach an agreement?" Monte suddenly appeared out of nowhere and saw Nancy getting into her car to leave in front of the door. He quickly approached her with a nervous expression.

"Today is just a preliminary meeting. Dr. Charlotte is an interesting person, and I'll consider it," Nancy said indifferently, without revealing much satisfaction.

"This...this..." Monte panicked. He had paid 100,000 copper coins for the registration fee to invite Nancy. He thought Charlotte would win easily, but it seemed things were going to go wrong.

"Madam, we've lost our purse and have no money. Where will we stay tonight?" the maid interjected at the opportune moment.

"You dropped your purse?" Monte was taken aback, never expecting such a thing to happen to Nancy.

"Dr. Charlotte just generously gave me eighty-two copper coins, so let's listen to him and stay at the cheap inn in the alley next door that costs ten copper coins a night. The remaining money will be enough for us to eat bread for two days," Nancy said with a slight smile.

"This won't do!" Monte exclaimed in surprise, finally understanding why Nancy's attitude was so cold.

What is Nancy's status that makes her stay in a hotel that costs ten copper coins a night and live on eighty-two copper coins for several days?

Isn't this just blatant slander against others?!

Charlotte, who usually seems like a shrewd person, how come he behaves like this when he's around a woman?

It was a great opportunity to improve his image, but he ended up offending people instead.

He was given the opportunity, but he failed miserably.

"Dr. Charlotte, I have to criticize you for this. Mrs. Nancy has encountered a small difficulty. You should be generous and help her get through this. Once that matter is settled, will you be short a penny of thanks?" Monte blinked at him, trying to bring him to his senses.

Charlotte looked at the hopeless Monte and felt a chill in her heart. This guy really seemed to be stepping into every trap the other side had set, and he was even rushing to jump in, dragging Charlotte down with him.

"If you had 100,000 copper coins, would you give them all to Mrs. Nancy?" Charlotte asked.

"Of course, Nancy is my cousin, I definitely have to help her," Monte said, patting his chest.

"If you had two copper coins, would you take them out to help her?" Charlotte asked again.

"I..." Monte stammered.

"What, you're not even willing to pay a copper coin?" Charlotte mocked.

"I really only have two copper coins left," Monte said, shrugging.

Charlotte said proudly, "Look, I only had eighty-two copper coins on me, and I gave them all to Mrs. Nancy. I'm much more generous than you."

"Goodbye." Nancy climbed into the carriage without looking back.

"I'm really fed up with you two." The pretty maid rolled her eyes at the two of them speechlessly. She had never seen such poor bastards before, even after serving the lady for so many years.

The driver flicked the reins and drove away.

Charlotte and Monte were the only ones left in front of the clinic.

"Doctor, what's wrong with you? If you completely anger Nancy, our plan will be ruined. I invested 100,000 copper coins in handling fees!" Monte looked at Charlotte with a resentful expression, almost stomping his feet.

"You can play by yourself. I can't outmaneuver this woman. And don't even think about getting your commission back. You're eyeing her commission, but she's after your principal. Go find a factory job and pay off your loan sharks first," Charlotte said calmly. He was still heartbroken about those eighty-two copper coins.

Nancy gave him the feeling that she was hard to control, especially after the cold laugh she suddenly let out while standing in front of the clinic, which made his scalp tingle.

Theoretically speaking, only villains usually make that kind of strange laugh.

The saying "pink on the outside, black on the inside" is a famous theorem, and Charlotte doesn't want to take that risk.

Currently, he has escaped the stage of extreme financial hardship.

He prefers to work hard to earn the money he can, develop steadily, and avoid being reckless.

The initial commission of 25 copper coins was no longer enough to make him risk doing such a thing.

"I've mortgaged the castle, please help me out. It's my family heirloom. If someone takes it, I'll lose all face in the vampire world." Monte grabbed Charlotte's hand, pleading, "Please, please."

"roll!"

Charlotte flung his hand away, jumped back three meters, and looked disgusted.

It was simply unbearable for him to be talking to a vampire with an old man's face like that while holding his hand.

“Nancy’s identity and wealth are absolutely beyond question. Even if she’s not that naive, if you can really win her over, the castle, the warehouse full of treasure, and the title of vampire count could all be yours.” Monte stepped forward again, grinning, “We can also forgo the commission and take her principal.”
