The old man harrumphed, then sighed and said, "Will you at least be her friend?"
"She's currently under the influence of a trauma bond, formed as a result of me rescuing her. I believe she is somewhat irrational about me at the moment. Maybe in a few months, the trauma bond will wear off and she can think about me in a more rational light."
The last thing he needed was the rich granddaughter of a wealthy, rage prone old man, obsessing over him.
Almost like the old man read his mind, he said, "Unfortunately, Lily takes after me. She is already obsessed with you and is unlikely to just let you go."
Great, just great.
The little, possibly unstable, Yokorian chick was manageable. The granddaughter of a powerful man, not so much.
He had a feeling that if he spent any amount of time with Lily, his stronger soul, combined with her trauma bond with him, would just compound into something truly terrifying.
