Yes.I won’t make the same mistake again!
Kakkaignores director Yamaoka’s gratitude.then looked at chief Tanizawa.
.Tanizawa, follow him up
.Certainly
Chief Tanizawa bows his head.
We’ve got visitors tonight so don’t be careless. Whoever it is, you must welcome them properly
Yes.I will make preparations. Kudou has already gathered his members too He’s the kind of personnel for tonight.let him play an active part .I will tellKakka’swords to them
Chief Tanizawa answers his lord graciously like a butler serving for a long time
Then, head to the field.it’ll be fine to have Fujimiya-kun and Seki-kun as my guards
.ThenKakkaexcuse me .Umu
Chief Tanizawa then left the room without making any footstep sounds.
Then.Kakkalooks at director Yamaoka like he’s looking at something dirty
You’re still here Yamaoka-kun? Go back to your work too
.Uhm, I! .Hurry up and go. I can’t get down to business with them if you stay here
Kakkareturns his glance to Misuzu.
Yes.Excuse me! Uhm.I will do my best to fulfill my responsibility so please! Please have expectations on me!
Director Yamaoka leaves the room freezing.
People who are athletic don’t think much with their heads. They do their best to live by just threatening and being cruel!
Kakka expresses his disgust.
If it’s people like you who try to read everything between the lines.the conversation just gets tiring
Looking at Seki-san and Fujimiya-san.Kakkaspeaks
Well.enjoying an intellectual dialogue with beauties like you two is a way to prevent me from growing senile.take a seat
Kakkaadvises to seat.
Seki-san there. Fujimiya-san, goes there. Ruriko and Yoshiko-kun, that seat. Misuzu and you, there
I’m the only one that’sYou
Well fine.
We’re on the defendant’s seat.grandfather?
Misuzu asks.
speaking of which.the order of the chairs are.
If Grandfather is sitting on the seat of the judge.our seat would be the seat of the defendants.Seki-san is the prosecutor, Fujimiya-san is a lawyer, then that would make Ruriko-san and Yoshiko-san witnesses?
Misuzu asks uncomfortably.
It’s a bit different.
Kakkaanswers
Ruriko and Yoshiko-kun are audience. The two are unrelated to this trial
As expected.it’s a trial.
Also, the two beauties will just be observers. The prosecutor.will be Takahiko-san here
Kakkasaid.
Misuzu.you don’t have a lawyer!
.Does that mean?
Chapter 244
I should be on the defendant’s seat as well, shouldn’t I?
Nagisa smiles atKakka
Yes, you’re the first wrongdoer in this case
Kakkaanswers with a faint laugh.
Come Mao.let’s go to Onii-chan’s side
Nagisa tells her three years old daughter.
Okaay ! Hey, Mama?
What? What’sdefendant? It’s a person investigated whether he did something bad or not Eh? Mao and Mama are going to be examined whether they did something bad? That’s right
Nagisa smiles calmly.
Well fine.Mao didn’t do anything wrong!
That’s right. That’s why there’s no problem even if we’re investigated right?
Then.the two come to my side.
Fujimiya-san and Seki-san in front. Behind them is Ruriko-san and Yoshiko-san. They’re looking at us with an anxious face. Everyone’s afraid that we’re going to be disposed byKakka Everyone believes thatKakkais the absolute ruler of this place.1
It’ll be fine.don’t worry
In such a tense air.Nagisa speaks to Misuzu and me.
Nagisa’s smile gives Misuzu courage.
.Grandfather, I can’t consent being subjected to such a trial
.She tells her grandfather in the judge seat.
I have done nothing to receive such accusation!
Kakkacounterattacks.
Even though I have afiancedecided for you.isn’t it a sin to exchange affection to another man?
Yes. Of course
Misuzu answers immediately.
.what part of me are you dissatisfied? Misuzu-sama?
Unable to endure the tense air any longer. thefianceShiba Takahiko speaks up.
.That part
.What? You’re calling me who’s four years younger than you with a-Sama. However.that is!
Shiba Takahiko tries to speak up but.he looks atKakka’sface in surprise.
.I’m very sorry. Uhm.I spoke withoutKakka’spermission
Four years older than Misuzu.then he’s college student?
Even though he’s taller and has a better physique thanKakka.Shiba Takahiko’s afraid of him. Kakkathen.
I don’t mind.let’s have the prosecutor question the defendant first. Be sure to throw out all everything that’s inside your heart.
that’s. Takahiko-kun, you’re going to be Misuzu’s husband aren’t you? If you’re no match against your wife.you won’t be a leader of the Kouzuki group!
Kakkafuels Shiba Takahiko.
His mouth is smiling but.his eyes are serious.
yes.I’ll do my best. I’ll endeavor myself seriously!
Shiba Takahiko is underKakka’scontrol.
Let me tell you beforehand.
Misuzu speaks to Shiba Takahiko.
I’m very sorry for this selfish arrangement but.I would like to cancel grandfather’s decision about my engagement with Takahiko-san. I’m sorry!
Misuzu bows her head to Shiba Takahiko.
For the time being.I’ll bow together.
Fortunately.it’s still a private talk.it’s not publicly announced that Takahiko-san is myfiance I think that it won’t hurt Takahiko-san’s career
Misuzu said clearly
Is this the fault of that man over there?
Shiba Takahiko opens up his mouth.
That’s right. I’m going out with this person
Isn’t he just a brat? He’s only a year younger than me. A first year high school boy Uhm.from which house are you? Which department in Kouzuki group is your father?
Shiba Takahiko thinks that I’m someone from a noble family somewhere.
Inside Kouzuki group as well.
This person isn’t a member of any household
.What do you mean?
.Err
I’m just a commoner. Or rather, I may be poorer than a commoner
Yeah.My father disappeared
Commoner?Why is that person?
It seems that Misuzu got annoyed at what Shiba Takahiko said.
He’s the man I’m in love with.it doesn’t matter to you!
It does! I am yourfiance!
Shiba Takahiko’s confused.
Also.I’m the officialfiancechosen byKakka!
I just annulled thatengagementjust now! You’re born from Kouzuki house so your duty is to be married to a certainfiancedecided byKakka? Please don’t decide my life without permission!
Misuzu said clearly.
Shiba Takahiko trembles from Misuzu’s thorough rejection. But still, he tries to bring it on his own pace.
misuzu-sama.No, Misuzu-san.Uhm, is it okay to call you Misuzu-san?
He’s trying to build a friendly relationship?
.But
Takahiko-kun.shouldn’t you just call her Misuzu without any suffix?
Kakkaspeaks with a sour expression.
Yes, certainly. Kakka.
Trembling.Shiba Takahiko looks at Misuzu.
I’m very sorry but, according toKakka’srequest.I will be calling you with only your first name.Miー
At the moment Shiba Takahiko tries to speak.
I refuse.I don’t want to be called by you as such!
Misuzu clearly rejects.
No but, that.Kakkaasked me to call you.
It’s wrong for grandfather to tell you how to call me
Shiba Takahiko tries to useKakka’sauthority to stand above Misuzu.
Therefore, Misuzu deniesKakka’sauthority
Err.that
Shiba Takahiko looks at Misuzu andKakkaalternately.
Looking troubled.
.i’ve made so much effort all this itme!
Eh.what are you talking about?
Seki-san and Fujimiya-san.the spectators of the room are all stunned.
One year ago.whenKakkahas nominated me as your fiance.I’ve always been working so hard!
.Hmm
What is he talking about?
