…

”Hmmm.”

Looking at her appearance in the mirror, Kanae wondered if she did too much. There was a party that invited the big families as well as the former clan's members. Kevin asked her to come along and obviously, Kanae had to dress up appropriately.

At the last banquet, she was wearing a long sleeve dress that would let her hide her weapon inside her sleeve. It was no different this time as well. The city was still not that safe as many areas were still considered as Black Street. For her own safety, it would be better to bring her sword with her.

Though, she was also proficient in hand to hand combat without needing to use a weapon.

The dress she picked this time was a red dress with simple design. The length covered her legs fully and the hem would flutter along with the wind when she walked around. As it was specifically tailored for her, the size matched her perfectly.

Knock! Knock!

”Kanae, are you ready?”

”Ah yeah.”

Opening the door, Kanae saw Kevin standing in front of her. She was still staying in her house, but many members from Ryukalin Clan came to visit her from time to time. As usual, Kevin personally came to pick her up.

Upon seeing Kanae, Kevin stayed still in his place for a few seconds. Her dress perfectly highlighted her features. Even though he had told the designer to make a fitting dress for her, he didn't expect it to be this good. She was so perfect and beautiful in front of him right now.

On the other hand, Kanae's eyes lit up when she saw Kevin's appearance. He always looked good no matter what he wore. The current black suit perfectly suited him. Kanae was sure that the ladies wouldn't be able to tear their eyes away from him.

”Brat, how long do you want to stand there?” Patrick asked from the back, clearly annoyed because they took a really long time there.

”Ah, right. Let's go.”

”En.”

Kanae grabbed Kevin's hand as she looked at his face. Even though his expression was as stoic as ever, his gaze looked disturbed. She grabbed Kevin's hand tighter as they walked to the car.

”Wow! You're so pretty today!” Neo exclaimed when he saw Kanae.

”Thanks.”

Neo grinned and was about to say something else when he noticed that Kevin was glaring at him. Eh, it seemed that his boss didn't want him to compliment Kanae more than that. He tactfully shut his mouth before Kevin could order him to spar with Mike again.

As Kanae entered the backseat along with Kevin, she looked around. ”Is Mike not coming with us?”

”No. He has been tasked to take care of some thugs who are very c.o.c.ky. He'll only return back at a later time.”

”Are you still very busy?”

”Don't worry too much. You're also helping me out,” Kevin replied with a smile.
