"He wants you to be his wife."

Lena's eyes widened when she heard what Winn had just said.

"You don't have to agree, Miss Luthor."

Winn quickly assured the young lady. Scaring Lena with the word 'marry' was the last thing he wanted to happen.

"Just please at least think about this, my master is a very well-respected man. He wishes you would say yes."

The lady in front of her nodded in understanding. She should have seen that. She was seventeen now, surely that's the right age to get married. Lena had friends that got married by the age of fifteen.

Getting married at a young age was not a rare thing these days.

What?  For men, women are just their slaves. Someone to release their desire to, someone to tend their needs. They don't care if you are a highly educated lady or not. As long as you have what's down there and a pretty face, that is enough for them.

Lena Luthor was not someone that would bend comfortably to a man. She didn't want to stand behind a man.

Marrying someone who she had never even met, gosh, does the man who bought her think he could just win her over like that?

He is just the same as every other man she had met.

"Miss Luthor, my master is not forcing you into this agreement remember that please, you can just say no."

The way Winn looked in her eyes as he talked about his master was so sincere. His master must have meant a lot to him.

Lena looked down at her hands... She was starting to twirl with her thumb.

Somehow the young lady got a feeling that maybe... Just maybe, her future husband was a little different than anyone she ever met.

"Can you tell me a bit about him?"

The young lady said without taking her eyes off her hands.

Winn didn't want to seem rude, but he really couldn't help the grin that formed on his face. His master was not as hopeless as he thought.

The gentleman rubbed both of his hands on the side of his pants.

"You might have heard of his name before. Most people call him 'the phantom.'"

It was true. Lena had heard of the phantom. A wealthy and mysterious man who owned the most prominent trading company in the country, a man who never showed his face to the public and only a few ever met him face to face—earning him the nickname 'phantom.'

A man who had donated millions of pounds to the homeless. The man who had built thousands of schools and clinics for the unfortunate.

A few people claimed that he was too handsome that every girl keeps falling for him, and that was why he never showed up in public.

Some claimed that he was so ugly, and that was why he was hiding. There were so many things people have said about the phantom, mostly just talk about what he looked like because everyone knows he is a good man.
He is very generous, kind, and luxurious.

"My master is not as the rumors say he is. He is not an old, perverted bald man like some people claim him to be. He has just recently turned 20. He inherited his family's fortune at the age of 13 when his parents' ship sank."

Winn explained as if he knew what's going on in Lena's mind.
