Chiba Seiryu clenched her pearly teeth, and her arched eyebrows were filled with shame and anger.
It was truly detestable; the evidence was right before her eyes, yet he still attempted to argue!
"Fine, since you are not afraid, I'll just show the photos to Otome Yumeko!"
Chiba Seiryu said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Haruka Yuzan's heart skipped a beat, but he maintained a composed exterior. Facing Chiba Seiryu, he could not show any weakness.
Once he showed weakness, he would lose initiative in the whole situation.
Since she approached him first instead of going to Chiba Shimizu or Otome Yumeko, there was still room for maneuver.
Just like Haruka Yuzan had said before, Chiba Seiryu did not want to confront him directly.
"It doesn't matter. Do you think Yumeko doesn't know?"
Haruka Yuzan shrugged his shoulders, speaking indifferently.
Anyway, say whatever you want, if I cower, then I lose.
Chiba Seiryu was somewhat angry and immediately picked up the photos, ready to leave.
Haruka Yuzan did not try to stop her, instead, he continued eating.
As the girl approached the door of the room, a deep voice suddenly rang out:
"I advise you not to show the photos to Shimizu, you'd better show them to Yumeko."
"If you show them to Shimizu, fixing the relationship between you two will no longer be possible."
While savoring the fish, Haruka Yuzan said, "Tsk tsk, think about it, your sister left home because of your sister's overbearing power."
"If you do this now, she probably won't forgive you even more...."
Chiba Seiryu stopped in her tracks, this had always been her concern. If she showed the photos directly to Chiba Shimizu, even though Shimizu might see Haruka Yuzan's true nature,
yet... it would be harder for her to reconcile with her sister...
The gentle sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, causing the lady's icy silhouette to pause, a hint of hesitation flitted across her beautiful face.
With lips as supple as cherries, she needed to refute; she couldn't be led by the nose.
"Shimizu will understand me, and that crazy girl Otome Yumeko, she will definitely enjoy seeing them..."
"That's fine, but I guess, Yumeko must have hidden all information about me, why do you think that is?"
"Miss Seiryu, you and Yumeko must have had a lot of interactions in the group's business, you know what kind of person she is."
"A proud swan allowing a clumsy duck in her presence?"
"Do you think Yumeko knows about these things?"
Of course, Otome Yumeko doesn't know!
If she knew, then Haruka Yuzan might even have to start over.
Now it's a gamble, a psychological game.
The bet is that Chiba Seiryu won't show the photos to anyone else, letting the lady mistakenly think that Haruka Yuzan seems sincere, but in reality, is cunning!
Haruka Yuzan's expression remained calm, but the hand holding the teacup was slightly sweaty.
He actually hired a private detective to investigate me.
Luckily, he was cautious in his usual dealings, generally only behaving recklessly in his bedroom.
It could only be the Chiba family.
Were it a family smaller than the Otome group, Miss Otome would have found out in minutes.
Then... Threats, warnings, intimidation?
Chiba Seiryu's eyes filled with shame and anger; she realized, even though she held the evidence, she had no way to deal with Haruka Yuzan! Orıginal content can be found at novel·fire·net
Such a detestable jerk.
To him, it's like a hoodlum who doesn't need a face, but she couldn't risk it!
Her sister despised her assertiveness; if Chiba Shimizu knew about it, then...
"If Chiba Shimizu knows about this, it will definitely be over, right, Miss Seiryu?"
Haruka Yuzan approached the girl, the faint scent of jasmine gently wafting, the beautiful girl in a kimono emitting a slight tremor.
The breath of the boy was so close, it made her feel... itchy, very uncomfortable.
In the past, no boy dared to come so close to her.
She instinctively wanted to escape, but Haruka Yuzan suddenly embraced the delicate willow waist of the lady, feeling a unique smoothness even through the kimono.
"You, you let go of me right now!"
Chiba Seiryu was very angry, a blush creeping up the girl's delicate cheeks, her eyes filled with shame and anger.
"I'm telling you, the entrance is filled with my Chiba family, if you want to die, I can indulge you!"
"Miss Seiryu, do you remember our agreement before?"
Haruka Yuzan whispered hot air by her delicate earlobe, "I help you, and then, I can do anything to you."
"You, you are shameless!"
Chiba Seiryu had a bad feeling.
"You, who actively made that kind of proposal with your sister's boyfriend, should be the one considered shameless, shouldn't you, Miss Seiryu?"
"What, what are you going to do?"
"I'm very angry that you investigated me, applying a slight punishment should be fine, right?"
Haruka Yuzan spoke, and his large hand moved from the girl's willow waist upward.
Even through the kimono, he could feel the soft, plump skin.
