Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits

Chapter 62 It Was All Just A Trap



3 days earlier, when Lily was kicked out of the Stormweaver House by Seraphina, she walked back to her house, normally, she would have taken a carriage especially since she was carrying two of her bags with her.

However, knowing her conditions, she knew she couldn't afford a carriage right now, she needed to survive for as long as possible before finally getting out of the Vesta City, there was no other way.

Lily was worried, she wanted to live normal life however, she knew just how badly she had messed up. Living a normal life in Vesta City while having offended the Young Master of the Vesta Family… this was absolutely impossible.

No matter how useless that young master was, no man was insane enough to get in his bad books just for a mere maid.

Thinking about this, Lily sighed and with her two huge bags and a mind filled with worry, she walked to her house, which was 8 km away.

However, just when she walked into her humble house,

"Keeping me waiting for this long, you really are daring, aren't you?"

Her eyes widened in surprise when she entered her house.

The door was locked, she was the one who opened it with the key then…

Why was this voice coming from inside her House!?

And just as Lily was wondering this, the lights of the room were automatically turned on and when Lily saw the person comfortably sitting on a chair with his legs on her bed, her eyes widened in horror.

"Y-Y-Young Master Vaan!"

She screamed in shock and fear.

"Tsk Tsk, why do you always shout whenever you see me? Do you have a grudge against me or something?" Vaan questioned as he picked his ear with his pinky finger.

"Y-You, what are you doing here!?" Lily questioned as she pointed her finger at Vaan.

"Tsk, I have been waiting for you for more than an hour, and when you finally show up, you aren't even offering me some snacks? Just how rude can one be? Isn't this world like some medieval shit with Kings and other stuff? I thought people of this era were more polite but people are an ass pretty much everywhere huh..."

Vaan groaned as he started talking to himself.

Lily, on the other hand, had no clue what this man was talking about…

Was this man always this brash…?

No, she had heard that he was brash and was always rude to the people who he thought were beneath him but this… this was just too much!

Does he have some kind of mental condition?

Lily started wondering, Vaan however, continued with his monologue, contemporary romance

"Well, I guess it is not your fault either. I am the one who got you kicked out of your job, it would be stranger if you forgot about it and served snacks to me, if you did, I would have doubted that you have poisoned it."

Lily, who heard those words narrowed her eyes. She recalled how this man was responsible for all her miseries, so rather than trying to make sense of this situation, she glanced at Vaan and with a face full of hatred and loathing,

"What are you doin-"

"But anyways."

However, before she could say anything, Vaan interrupted her again.

"Who would want that shitty job anyways? Honestly, if my boss kicked me out just because someone said so, especially when I was the one who stood up for her, I wouldn't want that shitty job either.

If you look at it that way, then I did you a favor, didn't I?"

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm Vaan questioned as he glanced at Lily.

"Why are you here?" This time, Lily dropped all the formalities and questioned directly.

"Hmm? I am here to check up on you, of course. If things stay the same as they are right now, then surviving in the Vesta City would be difficult, so I was wondering what your plans are."

"You are the last person who I want to check up on. If you forgot, then let me remind you, that you are the reason for everything that happened to me." Lily spoke as she narrowed her eyes.

"You really think it is wise to talk to me like this? I came here to get you out of this situation, you know?" Vaan questioned with a playful smile on his face.

"…what do you mean?"

"Work for me," Vaan spoke directly.

"Come to the Vesta Mansion with me, you will be new there so there will be some restrictions imposed upon you, but I can assure you it would definitely be better than whatever you are planning to do. The salary would be decent, a decent room and food will be provided, you will be safe, in case you get hurt on accident, the treatment cost would be covered by the family and there are many more advantages."

Lily, who was listening to all this suddenly realized, "You want me to betray Lady Seraphina…"

"Is it really betraying when she already kicked you out?" Vaan chuckled as he questioned back.

"Why would you even think about her right now? Don't you want to bite that bitch back?"

"What you did back then… you didn't do it in a fit of anger…

You were planning for this since the start…

Making Lady Seraphina choose between you and me… it was all just a trap…"

Lily muttered with a strange look on her face.

She couldn't believe it…

This man…

Wasn't he a well-known fool and a pushover…?

Then why…

"What? You want me to clap for you or something?"

"You think I will betray Lady Seraphina after knowing you were aiming for this from the beginning? What made you think I would let you win?" Lily spoke in a tough tone. She was not going to give in.

"All right then, good luck living." Vaan shrugged as he stood up.

"I will live."

"Sure you will." Vaan smiled.

"Aldric." He shouted.

"At your service, Young Master Vaan."

"Destroy this house, spread her postures all over the Vesta City, say she assaulted the Young Master of the Vesta Family and was disrespectful to him.

I want this done by tonight, is that clear?"
