Chapter 73 : New Toys

Chapter 73 : New Toys

Just as Victor entered the mansion, he heard Lily’s yell “What?” and the sound of glass shattering. So he hurried with Alex into the living room, to see that Lily was standing there in astonishment as she looked at her phone while the twins pointed at something. The shattering sound was of the water glass that fell from her hand.

She was so shocked that she didn’t notice his entrance. When the twins noticed him, he had already walked behind Lily in silent, and was looking at the phone placed on the table.

“Isn’t that Tom? What is going on with him?” He asked surprising Lily who shook a little when hearing his voice, Then slowly raised her beautiful eyes and looked at him in surprise.

“Young master, welcome back.” She said nervously as if she had done something wrong.

“What happened?” He asked.

Lily didn’t answer, just lowered her head.

“Lily was just letting us know the truth about Tom. She had a recording where he was doing perverted things while peeping on a couple in bed. However, in the recording, we recognized the woman. And when we told Lily, she was very shocked. She screamed and dropped her glass to the ground.” Said Mina who was a little anxious about Linda's affair. failing to notice Lily’s eyes begging her to not say anything.

“Oh, you mean Linda. Don’t worry, I already know.” Victor said casually, making the girls gasp in shock.

“Ah. We didn’t mean to look at it, young master, just…We will not tell anyone.” Said Mina, while being a little embarrassed.

“Good, keep this a secret for now. Now go get a broom and remove all this shattered glass. Be careful to not get a cut.” He said then turned around to look at Alex who was distracted looking at the phone that was still playing the recording.

“Dear Alex, If you like those kind of things, I have an entire collection in my room. Feel free to take any and watch it, if you ever felt the need to.” Said Victor with a smirk as he took the phone, waking Alex up from her daze. A collection of what? She didn’t get it. Ah… Alex’s face turned red as she looked away from the phone in shame.

“It’s… OK, I won’t need such things.” She flustered said. "What a pervert." She thought.

“Everyone, this is Alex. He will work at this mansion as my butler and bodyguard from now on. And don’t worry he is trustworthy,” Victor introduced her, making the twins greet Alex with respect. Lily was still pointing her face to the ground as if she knew what awaited her. But she still gave Alex a quick glance.

“Where is Hilda?” Victor asked.

“Ah, Lily brought some girls, and aunt Hilda is arranging them at the separate building,” Mina said.

“Good, now go do your job. Mana you take Alex to see Hilda, let her arrange a room near mine for him. He must protect me at all times. and I can’t let him be alone with you girls at the servants' building. Lily, follow me to my room.” He said as he left the room, and Lily quickly followed after giving Alex a slight acknowledgment nod.

Mina quickly left to get a broom, while Mana silently gestured at Alex to follow her.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

“It seems that you already know what you did wrong.” Victor who was looking out of the window asked Lily who was standing in respect with her head lowered. She didn’t answer.

“You wanted to show the girls Tom’s perverted side so that they may stop liking him right?” He asked.

Lily nodded silently.

“I don't mind, but ask me next time before doing anything this stupid.” Victor sighed as he said. This time her actions can be considered very beneficial to him. As he could still see that the girls were not sure.

“I forgive you, so don’t be anxious, OK?” he said as he slowly moved to her side and began to pet her silky hair.

“Young master, I did one more thing without asking you permission.” She said while keeping her head lowered.

“What?” He asked softly. He didn’t know why, but when seeing her like that, he couldn’t get angry with her.

“I promised the girls you asked me to save that you would never separate them.” She said.

“As I said, you must ask me about this stuff next time.” He sighed as he said. “It’s Ok, your promise is as good as mine. Be careful from now on.” He said as he looked at Lily’s beautiful eyes as she turned her face slowly to also look at him.

“Young master, you are so good to me.”She said as she hugged him and rested her head on his chest. She never felt such warmth before knowing him.

Her young master is a good man, despite being a little perverted,

“Young master, I did another bad thing,” Lily said softly as her face remained on his chest.

“What now?” He asked. Her tune was somewhat mischievous this time. And he knew that this girl’s sense of humor is a little twisted. Maybe it's his influence on her.

Lily stretched her neck and whispered a few words in his ear, making Victor speechless.

“Not bad, Ask me next time.” He said. ”Now, where are my new toys?” He Asked.

“Ah… Mina has already told you, young master, they are in the separate building.” Lily answered as she silently criticized her young master for calling the girls toys. “That’s a little rude…” Her thoughts were interrupted by a slap on the butt.

“I meant the artifacts and weapons. Dear Lily, you have a very dirty mind,” said Victor, making Lily so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to drill into.

“They are in the basement, young master.” She said embarrassingly.

“Good, I will go see those things. You go get the girls and Hilda, then wait for me in the dining room.” He said, giving Lily another butt slap before heading downstairs toward the basement.

Baron was delayed. Just as he got into his car, Mason called him and asked him to go back into the police station to retrieve all the evidence then bring it and meet him at the airport. Mason had no face to return to the station alone after the humiliation he suffered there.

So Baron had to go and search for the files by himself because all the cops were sent on vacation.

When he reached Titus' mansion late in the afternoon. He found it a deserted ruin full of piles of ash and bullet cases.

He quickly used his phone to get some of his own men here. They would need another three hours to get here.

He slowly made his way into the basement while cursing at George. Did he need to kill everyone.

No signs of a break-in. The door was perfectly closed. So he slowly flicked the switch on the door according to the secret pattern but nothing happened.

He tried again. He was moving very fast earlier, because he was anxious, so he may have made a mistake.

Still. It didn’t open. The switch was broken.

Baron’s face turned ugly as he closely inspected the door, to find it tightly shut. Did anyone betray them?

He took a deep breath and used his fist to strike the door.

It gave in after five punches. The Steel reinforced door slowly fell to the floor, revealing the empty corridor behind it.

Baron, who had a bad feeling, ran straight to the artifacts room to find that the vault was tightly closed. No signs of breaking or forced entry. He sighed in relief. No one knew the combination, and it needed a key that only he and Titus had.

He approached it slowly then unlocked it. Taking a deep breath, he opened it in one swing to be welcomed by a grenade explosion. A little goodbye gift from Lily and the girls.
