Bab 479: Conditions For Approval

'It would have been far easier if Lord Benjamin didn't say a word until his sister got home with the family, but this might become a rather big issue if Lily is troublesome.' Lucius thought. 'Not that it will be difficult to deal with, just a pain in the head.'

"You can't stay here, Lily." Benjamin said.

"And why can't I?" Lily replied.

"Obviously there's no reason too. And it's not like I'd like to have you around with me. That means that I'll have to take care of you."

Lily frowned at her brother, but then cleared her throat and turned to Lord Asher.

"Lord Asher… what kind of work will my brother be doing? Perhaps I can do a better job than him." Lily said.

Lucius's brows raised slightly at the declaration, while Benjamin frowned. "Hey, that's not a very nice thing to say, Lily."

"Your brother will be doing a lot of administrative work. It is something that he has learned from Baron Hugh as his successor." Lucius said.
