Tanizawa-san looks at me and Ruriko.

With this happening to Shigeaki-sama.and Shiba-san becoming the head, making a new order.Kouzuki group would be in rough times for a while. Especially Misuzu-sama, Ruriko-sama, and Yoshiko-sama, his three granddaughters.they might approach them more than ever .Yeah

As Jii-chan announced his retirement. Kouzuki house and board members are looking at the next generation.

First is Yoshiko-sama. She was ignored until now but.if someone starts to that Yoshiko-sama is the memento of Shigeharu-sama who had died first.it would be bad. Therefore,Kakkawent ahead and made Yoshiko-sama recognized in the public place today. She’ll stay by his side for a while. Making sure nobody makes a move on Yoshiko-sama.

Yoshiko-san who’s never recognized as the daughter of Kouzuki house until now.Kouzuki house and the board members will try to handle her with an underestimating attitude.

For example.just as Jii-chan announced Yoshiko-san. As proof, Kouzuki Souji declared calmlyIf I marry Yoshiko, then I’ll be the successor of Kouzuki house If it was Misuzu or Ruriko, he can’t speak that loudly in front of a big number of people. Yoshiko-san’s a much easier target than Misuzu and Ruriko.so she’ll be targetted. Therefore, Jii-chan protected her beforehand.

Following. Ruriko-sama has to lower her value. With Shigeaki-sama’s sudden death and the strangely fast progress of the funeral.everyone’s aware that Shigeaki-sama’s death is a calamity. Even withKakka’swords at the funeral.he conveyed it widely that Shigeaki-sama has caused something scandalous and that he was deliberately murdered.

Everything had Jii-chan’s message in it?

Especially.at the funeral seat, showing howKakkadealt with Ruriko-sama carelessly.it strongly creates an impression that Ruriko-sama has lost her successor qualification to Kouzuki house

Yes.it is as Tanizawa-san says

Ruriko answers.

I’m expelled from Kouzuki house

With that happening.Ruriko-sama now has judged that this is acceptable, hadn’t you?

Chief Tanizawa said.

If Ruriko-sama has brought disgrace to Kakka.then nobody would try to contact with her. WhileKakka’sin good health, there should be no one that would try to approach Ruriko-sama.

Ruriko’s hated by Jii-chan.if you reach to her, you’ll just anger Jii-chan. If Jii-chan turns Ruriko’s possibility to succeed Kouzuki house to zero.bad guys won’t approach Ruriko.

Yeah.that’s how it is. I finally see Jii-chan’s true intentions.

.Tanizawa-san, that’s not it

Ruriko speaks strongly

Grandfather has really abandoned me

If it was Ruriko from earlier.

She’ll think politically from what Tanizawa-san said. She bothers to understand in roundabout ways saying.indeed, Jii-chan is thinking about Ruriko’s future. But, Ruriko now. After Misuzu and I threatened her thoroughly. Her thought.is more inclined towardsI was abandoned

Grandfather.has chosen Yoshiko, no.Yoshiko-sama.

As his successor.

I am.not needed by grandfather.

.Ruriko

I grip Ruriko’s hands.

I need you.that’s why, don’t say that

.Ruriko

Yes.I’m very sorry. Onii-sama

Ruriko’s hands lost blood, it’s cold.

To be honest.I don’t think that Kuromori house is the right place to leave Ruriko-sama. But.with this the Kouzuki clan, the board of directors, and other noble families.those who are trying to aim for the heir of Kouzuki house would withdraw their hand from Kouzuki-sama.the more vulgar people, those who don’t care as long as they make a relationship with Kouzuki house, then it’s possible for them to attack Ruriko-sama. No, if she’s taken out ofKakka’sprotection, there would be idiots who would do something unreasonable.

.Above all, Ruriko’s beautiful.

If this ultimate sheltered girl is thrown out of the streets alone. You can imagine how horrible it would be.

Normally.I should put someone powerful to guard her but.if Kouzuki security service’s top elite protects Ruriko-sama.then the premise thatKakkahas abandoned Ruriko-sama would collapse.that said, if we have Kudou and the contractors follow, it’ll only damage Ruriko-sama’s reputation I see.Kouzuki security service can’t move.

Kudou-papa and others are too eccentric.

Therefore, entrusting Ruriko-sama to you people.is the last resort. Kyouko’s skills can be trusted, and Margo-jouchan is a good bodyguard too. You people aren’t againstKakka.and you would take care of Ruriko-sama. Above all, it’s good that it’s all women!

No.I’m here though? Weren’t you Misuzu-sama’s partner?

.What?

Even though you have Misuzu-sama.you won’t try to make a move on Ruriko-sama who’s Misuzu-sama’s relative

.Err

Above all.Misuzu-sama shouldn’t allow that to happen.1 Misuzu-sama’s a very strong-willed person. She has a strong desire to monopolize. Therefore, she’s sticky with you, isn’t she? If ever you try to seduce Ruriko-sama.Misuzu-sama will stop it. Besides, you don’t want to take the risk to cause Misuzu-sama’s displeasure, would you?

.Is that how it seems?

Chief Tanizawa’s convinced that I’m dominated by Misuzu.

.Eh, am I wrong?

No, that Even if it’s you.you do know that Kouzuki house will become your enemy if Misuzu-sama hates you, don’t you? Anyway, you won’t be able to stay in Japan

.right.

Well, Misuzu-sama’s one year older.and since she’s the lady of one of Japan’s leading houses, I think it’s hard for you but.well, do your best

haa.I’ll do my best

Is this the limit of chief Tanizawa’s way of thinking?

This person’s a guard of Jii-chan and other noble people, right. He’s someone who lives with that as common sense. He thinks that Jii-chan and Misuzu won’t recommend me to have sex with Ruriko. No, he can’t imagine. Our morals are messed up though.

Uhm, that reminds me. I understand the future situation of Yoshiko-san and Ruriko, but.

.That’s right, I have to ask this.

What about Misuzu?

Would Misuzu be targetted

.You

Chief Tanizawa’s amazed.

First of all, back at the theater the day before yesterday.who was the one who showed his relationship with Misuzu-sama, a daughter of a famous Japanese family?

.Ah

.It’s me

Kakkaalso shows that he tolerates it. At the hotel, you showed clearly that your relationship with Misuzu-sama’s recognized byKakka Do you get it?

.Err

If your relationship with Misuzu breaks up, it’ll causeKakka’swrath. That’s what they recognize. Nobody would try to make a move on you two anymore!

I see.even at the funeral venue.

Kouzuki Satoshi and Tsunoda, the two idiots tried to get involved with us. The other students didn’t try to get close to me?

In exchange.everyone believes that Misuzu-sama won’t become the successor. Misuzu-sama fell for you.instead of staying qualified as a successor. They pleasantly felt that fromKakka.and accepted it .Haa

Everyone’s making their own assumptions.

In the first place, Misuzu-sama’s father is a state bureaucrat, he doesn’t have any power within the Kouzuki group. Therefore.Misuzu-sama was supposed to be married to the child of one of the group to solidify their forces In the first place, Jii-chan had decided on Misuzu’s fiance.

Shiba Okitachi’s eldest son. For Misuzu, the engagement with Shiba house.would bring Mr. Shiba’s group strength. Shiba house would become related to Kouzuki house. As Jii-chan is trying to entrust the group to Shiba-san.that was the most convenient choice.

However, Misuzu-sama chose you.that means, she steps down from the successor struggle. And thatKakkahas approved of it.

Therefore, nobody would target Misuzu in the future.she’ll be safe?

AsKakkaauthorized.Us, Kouzuki security service, would protect Misuzu-sama from now on. So, don’t worry

.No, well
