"Because you almost destroyed our family, you must take responsibility, Brother Adam."
Hearing Yui's words, Adam tilted his head.
"Responsible?"
"Yes ..."
Yui and Hikari looked at each other before looking right into Adam's eyes with a smile.
"You must take responsibility for us!"
"..."
Hearing the mother and daughter saying the same, Adam suddenly felt an urge to drop and 'eat' them.
After a while, the young man finally became calmer. Gazing towards the pair of beautiful mother and daughter, she said in a calm voice.
"Don't make a statement that makes such a misunderstanding."
Hikari and Yui were stunned. After thinking for quite a while, the two of them suddenly lowered their heads with red faces.
"We mean, you can't do anything like that anymore! Also, Yui will be working at your Cafe, and I will be working at the restaurant you said earlier.
Now you're our support, so you shouldn't ignore us just for giving us a job and a new life."
"Yes! What you said was right!"
Yui added, while enduring the hot sensation on her face.
"In that case, I'll take responsibility."
Adam said with a charming smile, making Hikari and Yui stunned for a moment.
The conscious Hikari first immediately stood up. He walked into the kitchen and said.
"Because you've bothered to help from the morning blind, surely you haven't eaten. I'll cook for you."
Yui was about to get up, but Adam said with a calm expression.
"You're still exhausted. You better just rest. Let me help your mother."
Saying that, Adam immediately got up from his chair. Then he went to the kitchen.
"You're a guest, so it's better to sit there."
Hearing Hikari's words, Adam approached the beautiful woman while saying.
"You didn't sleep well last night. You might burn down the house if I don't help you. Anyway ...
You said I had to take responsibility, right?"
Hearing Adam's words, Hikari's face instantly turned red.
Adam pretended not to see it. He opened the fridge. Seeing that there were only tomatoes and eggs there, the young man nodded.
"Because there is no material—"
"It's okay. This is enough. There's instant noodles, right? I'll eat it for you guys, you can rest."
"But—"
"Take it as an apology for making you misunderstand me, okay? And ...
That debt, let's just say it's paid off. I'll finish the contract tomorrow."
Hikari who was initially timid was stunned. He looked at Adam and pulled his collar.
"Just because you have money, don't underestimate us, Adam.
You also solved our problem, so everything broke even. You no longer need to add to everything.
Even though we are not rich, we still have our pride. We don't want to beg for mercy from you because of this matter.
Do you understand???"
Hearing that, Adam smiled.
If the two of them chose to accept easily, Adam would still be good, but rather keep a distance with them. But seeing such 'self-worth', somehow the selfish man had the urge to take and have. Of course, he could still resist the urge for such temporary desires.
Adam smiled then whispered into Hikari's ear.
"Are you sure ... don't want to be the 3rd?"
Hearing Adam's words, Hikari's face was instantly red like a tomato.
The woman immediately took off the collar of the youth's shirt. He stomped on Adam's feet before leaving the kitchen with a cold snort.
His slightly childish behavior made Adam chuckle.
Fifteen minutes later, Adam had prepared three bowls of noodles on the dining table.
Hikari and Yui looked at each other with astonished expressions.
"Is this really just the instant noodles we buy, Mom?"
"Because there are no other ingredients, it should be."
Seeing the reaction of the two, Adam shook his head lightly.
"Good meal!"
Eating noodles with eggs and tomatoes, Hikari and Yui were shocked. Didn't expect that simple combination to actually be so delicious in Adam's hands.
For Adam, as long as the way of cooking is right, any ingredient (which can and can be eaten) can definitely be a delicious dish.
Eating with the mother and daughter, Adam was delighted that the matter was resolved and they also became more familiar.
Yep. At least he thought so because he didn't know ...
If there was a small black flower sign that looked beautiful and strange in Yui's left palm.
***
One week later.
In the evening, Adam gazed towards the grand, luxurious three-story European-style house with a satisfied smile.
Yesterday Brock and his colleagues had completed the renovation, even bringing tools and tidying up the house.
At Adam's encouragement, they had also completed the repair of the fences and gates. Leave the front garden, back garden, and high fence behind the house to take care of before finally it can really be a dream house that is livable.
After being satisfied to see, Adam immediately went to the house. Seeing that all the planting cables had been installed, the young man was more and more satisfied.
What Adam needed was to take care of the previous three places. After that, take care of electricity to the office, and buy furniture. He also plans to install surveillance cameras in addition to security. But before that all ...
Adam needs to take care of what's left.
The young man walked towards the secret room. Unlike the rest of the house, the place was not renovated at all because it required tricks to open it.
If it wasn't for the teenagers who were arrested earlier, Adam would not have thought that there was a secret basement.
Down the stairs, Adam came to a place so familiar. Only, he had cleaned and fertilized the entire chain, leaving only various torture devices (because he was confused about where to throw it), and a mirror.
"Duringn't see you, Mia."
Looking at the large mirror on the wall, Adam greeted. A short while later, the figure of a little girl in gothic lolita clothes appeared in the mirror.
"While you've been missing for almost a month, you've done a good job, Adam."
Hearing Mia's monotonous voice, Adam nodded. He didn't care much about the tone of the girl. He only knew that Mia was trying to praise him, yes.
"You can see the whole house, Mia?"
"Because I was tied to this place, I could see the entire house including the front and back garden.
I also saw you smiling silly when I came."
"..."
"There's no shame. This house is great, you should be proud. Also—"
"Can you stop talking about that, Mia?"
"..."
The atmosphere became silent for a moment. Moments later, Mia's monotonous voice came back.
"Before moving, you'll take care of the front garden, right? Do you intend to take care of it immediately, or ...
You plan to clean up the rest?"
"I intend to finish everything tonight. I don't want to put it off any longer."
"I understand, but ..."
"Yes?"
Adam and Mia looked at each other. The gothic loli opened her mouth, speaking in a more serious tone.
"You must be careful."
Hearing Mia's suggestion, Adam smiled.
"Understood!"
After saying goodbye to Mia, Adam went back upstairs and closed the secret door.
The young man then walked towards the back yard. There, there is a border fence filled with the inscription 'do not cross'. He purposely made it a limit, so that the workers would not recklessly pass by.
Sure enough, since no one broke the taboo, there were absolutely no casualties.
Mr. Brock and his colleagues are very satisfied to work with Adam. Not only the financial side, but they felt that Adam's request was very clear. Although somewhat complicated, it is better than the customer who spoke 'whatever', but ended up protesting for not being satisfied with the result.
Not to mention, Adam dared to pay the security deposit at a high price.
Passing through the barrier, Adam reached the back garden of the house. He walked straight ahead and stood in the middle of the garden while looking towards the small tool storage room on the other side of the garden.
Door opens. Together with the sound of root friction passing through the unkempt grass, the figure finally appeared.
Looking towards the humanoid plant holding the pot containing the strange flower, Adam took a deep breath and said with a confident smile on his face.
"For a long time no see, Mr Gardener!"
