"I'm sorry, we can only offer you compensation of 94 million dinis."
After the meeting, Mrs. Merlin returned to her residence, immediately slumped into a chair, sighed deeply, and rubbed her temples in frustration.
"Don't worry about it, Ms. Merlin. Everyone can see your hard work, and Victoria Home Service will always remember your kindness."
After checking the entire room and finding no surveillance or listening devices, Lekahn stopped in front of Mrs. Merlin, bowed slightly, and spoke respectfully.
"I love listening to you talk. It was definitely the right decision to agree with Lina's suggestion to take you in as a mockingbird (Note 1)."
Mrs. Merlin slightly opened her eyes, her gaze towards Lykahn filled with admiration.
Although Lina was a veteran, Lycaen rose to prominence and, over the years, managed the Victoria Household Management business with great success each time.
"Thank you for your assessment, but I truly cannot accept it. My recent trip to the Balai Building not only caused you to pay a hefty penalty for breach of contract, but also brought you unjust shame. I am truly ashamed."
Lycahn spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, but bowed his head slightly towards Mrs. Merlin.
Even Lina, who was standing to the side, felt a pang of shame at that moment. She took the initiative to stand next to Lycan and bowed to apologize with him.
"Oh, you mean that matter? It's nothing. We discussed it with the vampire clan, and it was already decided that it would be a predetermined failure. It's my fault for not informing you in advance in order to achieve a better outcome."
Mrs. Merlin waved her hand, not caring about the matter at all.
That's right, she's the financier behind the purchase of the Balai Building, and also the one who commissioned Victoria Housekeeping to clean the Balai Building.
Upon hearing this, Lycahn's pupils constricted, and he rudely raised his head.
Because the Balai Building was being used as a tool to control airships to crash into a hole, Mrs. Merlin, worried that the commercial value of the Balai Building would be damaged, ultimately paid the penalty for breach of contract and gave up the purchase...
The reasons are sufficient and the logic is sound.
At the time, Lykan believed it to be true.
But judging from Mrs. Merlin's current tone, there seems to be another hidden story.
"I'm very sorry, but I still want to ask..."
"It's about cooperating with the vampire clan, right? No need to ask."
Mrs. Merlin waved her hand, picked up her coffee, took a small sip, and slammed it back onto the table with a clang.
"This is an absolute secret that cannot be revealed. All I can tell you is that the vampire clan has no hostility toward Victoria Household, especially Fagga."
“Go back, Lycahn. You’ve been away for so long, it’s time to go home and visit.”
"Oh, right. I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to go to Victoria Housekeeping yet. Fagga and Ellen probably don't even know me yet... You two take this ten million dinnes. Buy them whatever they like as a gift for the children."
After saying that, Mrs. Merlin gently ushered Lycaen and Lina out of the room.
Outside the door, Lycahn and Lina looked at each other, and finally shrugged at each other.
Lycahn turned to look at the moon outside and said, "If we drive through the night, we should be able to get back to Victoria before dawn."
"Doesn't Lord Lycan feel tired?" Lina asked with a slight tilt of her head and a smile.
"Not really."
Lycaen shook his head and walked towards Pikachu.
Lina quickly floated over.
...
The next morning, the moon went out earlier than the streetlights. While the sun was already shining brightly outside, the streetlights were still casting a warm yellow light, guiding pedestrians on the road.
Buzz... hiss!
As the engine gradually stopped roaring, a pickup truck finally pulled up and stopped in front of Victoria Home Services.
Soon, the white-haired wolf Xiren, dressed in a butler's uniform, stepped out of the pickup truck with a pair of metal prosthetics and gentlemanly opened the car door for Miss Ghost in the passenger seat.
Miss Ghost floated out of the car, carrying a large cake in her arms. The two arrived together in front of Victoria Housekeeping's door, the crisp metallic sound echoing as keys clattered.

After pushing open the door and passing through the entryway, the two heard the sound of running water coming from the kitchen.
