"What is he going to pay you with when the entirety of his fortune now belongs to me?"
Theo allowed his question to linger in the air for a moment, waiting for the servants of the manor to properly take it in.
Because after taking a look around, it became painfully clear that Julius had absolutely no plans of leaving this place!
After all, what could he be so busy packing, when everything in the mansion belonged to Theo anyway?
'If only you didn't try to make such a big show out of it, I wouldn't even notice…'
Theo resisted the desire to shake his head and limited himself to just rolling his eyes. He then gave the head maid a knowing look… only for her to merely back off, a look of poorly concealed fear on her face, not knowing what to take Theo's look for.
"Are you going to lead me to where Julius is now?"
Finally, the maid snapped out of it, putting her fear aside and restoring a calm, composed look to her face.
