"Did you summon spirits?"
The question echoed in Irene's head.
She then heard Sylph's voice.
"Stay calm! No matter what you do, keep yourself collected!"
I think I know that.
"I got this!"
Irene smiled at Lucas, "What are you saying that?"
Let's see how the conversation will play out...
The Grand Duke had been looking at his document once again, Irene noticed something...
It's blank.
Irene's left eyebrow raised, felt like she was a mouse in a trap.
Lucas looked at the girl, "It was a rumor when the workers came to put out the fire and recuse you," he spoke.
"They realized specific places were already extinguished," Lucas had a chilly look in his eye as he looked at Irene.
She had a smile on her face.
"Just my luck right?" Irene said.
"What?" Trevor stepped closer to Irene.
Irene sighed and tched quietly.
Robert, who was sitting on the couch then asked something.
"Did not or did you summon them?"
Irene looked at him dumbfounded.
Well no shit, I did!
"Hm, I don't understand what you are asking," Irene played it off innocently.
"Please, like you wouldn't know! You always were curious about mother that's why you even summoned them!"
Robert had raised his voice.
"I knew nothing about my mother!"
Irene bounced back.
"Silent."
The Grand Duke spoke calmly.
Silent?
"You all are so difficult to talk to," Irene sighed frustrated with them.
"Says you! Would not answer the question!" Trevor clapped back.
"Isn't that what you all did? Silencing my staff?" Irene asked Trevor.
"That's beyond the point!"
"Oh lord."
Irene said before sighing.
"Why are you sighing? Don't you feel childish?" Robert said glaring.
Says a grown-ass adult glaring and fighting with a thirteen-year-old.
Robert is in his early 20s now yet still hasn't changed nor matured.
"Childish? Me? You-" Irene was caught off guard.
"Silent!" the Grand Duke's booming voice echoed in the big office.
Again with the silence.
The room went quiet, "Irene, do you possess elemental spirits?" he asked with his cold voice.
Irene just shrugged, "What if I do?"
Irene slowly watched the old man's eyes shake visibly.
Irene knew at the exact moment, she was screwed.
