Chapter 196: Photograph
The sound of the alarm clock slowly wake me up, and as my eyes adjusted to the dim light, I saw Evelyn and Elaine sleeping beside me, their heads resting on my chest.
I had returned home late last night, and the three of us shared some intimate moments before drifting off to sleep.
Just looking at their seductive appearances, made me recall the fun things we did last night.
They wore contrasting attires that immediately caught my eye.
Elaine was dressed in a thin black nightgown adorned with intricate lace patterns, a perfect match for her slender figure.
Evelyn, on the other hand, had a more modest nightgown, but it still had this soft, pastel floral pattern. It flowed around her and looked cute with her petite body. It wasn't as daring as Elaine, but it definitely made you think and wonder what was underneath it.
Evelyn had come to embrace the idea of living with me after I use my suggestion skills to help her see the benefits of such an arrangement. For the sake of my convenience , she had chosen to make my house her new home while continuing her pursuit of a career as an aspiring idol. I had plans to support her in the future, but, of course, after I completed my other more important business.
Regarding Alyssa, she was now sleeping in my old room, serving her sentence, and as a result, I couldn't include her in my harem .
'I should consider buying a mansion in the future,' I thought to myself. I planned to expand my harem, so acquiring a mansion seemed like a logical step.
In fact, I even entertained the idea of a skyscraper filled with women, which would make it easier to keep track of everyone.
"I'm a genius," I chuckled to myself. Making this plan a reality had become a top priority, and I intended to do it by securing investments from my company.
I planned to slowly build up my wealth to support my future goals. While increasing my power was important, I understood that having money was also a valuable asset, especially during peaceful times.

"Good morning, darling," they both woke up at the same time and greeted me.
Even without makeup and with their hair slightly tousled, their natural beauty still shone through. This was the advantage of their innate beauty, unlike other girls who depended on makeup and filters to achieve a similar effect.
"Good morning," I replied with a smile, planting a kiss on each of their cheeks.
They started blushing after I doted them a little. This women are just too easy to satisfy.
"I'll start cooking breakfast now," Evelyn offered.
"I'll lend a hand," Elaine chimed in.
"What would you like to eat, Darling?" Elaine inquired.
"Just some eggs and bacon will be perfect,"
"Okay," Elaine smiled at me and then assisted Evelyn in getting out of bed.
The two of them giggled, and it was evident that they had formed a strong bond. If not for my powers of suggestion, these two might have competed for my attention.
"I'm fortunate to have the perfect system for a harem," I contemplated. With the power of my words, I could prevent unnecessary conflicts and maintain harmony among my partners.
As they prepared my breakfast, I decided to take a moment to shower. There's nothing quite like a refreshing shower to clear my mind and relax.
After my shower, I headed to my PC to catch up on the latest news.
Reading the news in the morning had become a daily habit for me. I typically skim through the headlines and take notes on things that could have an impact on my life. International news wasn't my main concern; I focused primarily on gathering information from within Korea.
"Another natural gas explosion?" I murmured to myself as I read the article. The rising occurrence of these gas leaks was beginning to concern me, especially since this one was closer to Seoul.
I had a nagging feeling that there was more to this incidents than met the eye.
'I hope my mole gets in touch soon,' I thought to myself. I had asked him to gather more information about Cerebrum for me. The moment he report, I would have a better understanding of the Gifteds and Cererum.
I had a hunch that something big was looming on the horizon, but it wasn't rooted in any information I had collected; it was more of an intuitive feeling.
After skimming through the news, I moved on to my dummy email account, hoping to find a message from my mole. Sadly, there was none from him, but one particular email caught my attention—it was from the person who had taken the photograph at the top of the Brutal Garden building.
I was curious by the photograph of the woman that time, so I was pleased when I received an email from the photographer himself. I hoped that he/she might have a higher-resolution version of the image or more detailed information about it.
I clicked on the email and began to read its contents.
The email message read:
[I took this picture during that weird incident. I work as a private investigator, and I was on a case in that building when this happened. If you want more details about the pictures, I have additional close up shots available, but I'd need compensation for them.]
"A private detective?" I raised my eyebrows in response to the claims. In this day and age, it was hard to place trust in individuals online. For all I knew, this person could very well be a scammer. However, after further contemplation, I realized that money was no longer a problem for me.
So I started typing my response .
[How much do you want?]
Since we were using email, I had already anticipated that it might take a few minutes, perhaps even a few hours, for a respond.
DING!
To my surprise, a notification popped up on my PC barely a minute after I had sent the message. It seems that this person was in urgent need of money, given the speed of the response.
