The servants had talked to her as well
“They told me that I should rely on them more. Also, some of the maids were sad, and said that they failed me.”
“I see.”
“…I can understand how they feel too.”
Ms. Lyra said with a sigh.
“Well, I hope you understand why they all reacted in that way?”
“…Yes, Claire and Sebastian made it very clear. It was because I didn’t confide in anyone…”
“Exactly. After all, you have so many reliable people all around you. Not just Claire and Sebastian. Even I am…well, perhaps I am not very reliable.”
But there was the head maid and many servants here.
It was because of them that we were all able to live here so comfortably.
“Not at all. You are very reliable, Mr. Takumi!”
“Really? But you didn’t talk to me at all this time… I think your actions speak for themselves…”
“That’s… Because I didn’t want to bother you and the others…”
“Haha. I was just teasing you a little.”
I chuckled, as she was starting to look sad again.
“Still, people will start to think that you don’t trust them, if you always act on your own.”
“I see…”
“It’s very important to talk to and rely on others. Sometimes…thinking about things yourself can be good… But I think it’s usually best to think with others.”
“Yes… My idea was pretty terrible.”
“Well, it’s fine to have ideas. But as for how realistic they are…and the best way to go about it… It’s important to get the advice of others too.”
“But…aren’t they busy?”
“Well, I would not be too busy. Especially if it is something that you are serious about. I cannot guarantee that I will always have good advice… But the point is, not asking anyone will cause more trouble in the long run. As you saw this time.”
“Mr. Takumi… You’re just lecturing me like the others.”
“Haha. Well, I know that you learned your lesson. I just thought I should say that anyway.”
Like hammering the last nail on the head.
But I did not want to blame her too much, so I chuckled jokingly.
“Regardless, I am sure that the others would also be kind if you asked for advice. Isn’t that right, Ms. Lyra?”
“Of course. It is our job to help you. And knowing what you are thinking is part of it.”
I wasn’t if that was part of the job…but it showed how serious she was.
“Well, something tells me that it won’t be long before I am crying too, just like the other servants with Lady Tilura… Hah…”
“Uh…”
Ms. Lyra put a hand to her face and sighed sadly.
Wait, was she suggesting that I didn’t rely on her enough as well?
It was true that I was not used to being around servants, and tried to avoid asking her to do much.
Could it be that I had the same problem as Tilura?was time to get right to the point, and show her how it was done…
Duplicated chapter. This is actually chapter 890.
I think your actions speak for themselves -> I think your actions speak for yourself
I wasn’t if that was part of the job -> She wasn’t if that was part of the job
Thanks.
