Chapter 350 - IMAGINING THINGS (2/2)

She had once been a girl, so she knew date clothes, despite the generational gap. Akira was dressed well enough to stand out, but not too flashily that she seemed like she was trying too hard. Plus, her attitude was a little strange.

'No, it was impossible.' Sayaka thought. 'Akira did not know anyone from Mountain Ridge.'

Could that evil pig be trying to steal her white cabbage?

Sayaka dialled Daiki's number with nervous fingers and fired up eyes. She could not allow her daughter to disappear before they had time to bond. At twenty-two, she was still supposed to be attached to her parents.

”Dear, an evil pig is eyeing our daughter,” Sayaka said.

Daiki sighed at the sudden statement. ”What happened?”

”I suspect that Takahashi Kaito, that grandson of the departed second son of the Takahashi family has unclean intentions towards our Akira. Investigate him. Quickly.” She declared.

”Talk to Akira. You are probably imagining things.” Daiki chuckled.

”How can I talk to Akira? She has already left the house to meet that wild man!” Sayaka said with defeat in her voice.

After the truth dawned on her, she realised that Akira never responded to her question about where she was going. She probably did not want to tell her about her date.

”Are you sure?” Daiki became more serious.

”If I was sure, would I ask you to investigate?” Sayaka retorted. ”But trust me. I know something strange is going on.”

Daiki was a little relieved since there was no evidence. It was probably Sayaka jumping to conclusions once again. Still, he promised to check up on that man immediately for her peace of mind.

After hanging up, he massaged his temples lightly. Having a daughter was both a joy and a pain. Even if Sayaka was not right, Akira would eventually date and get married. However, the total number of years they had known her was less than five.

How would they part with her so soon?

As he contemplated the matter, his phone rang. He checked the caller ID and found it was his mother. He picked the call immediately.

”Hello, Mom. How are you?” He greeted her politely.

”Daiki, I do not interfere with the way you run your family. However, I will not allow the company and the entire clan to be destroyed in your hands.” His mother shouted directly.

”Mom, slow down. What are you talking about?” Daiki felt his head start to ache.

”That jinx that you brought back against my wishes. Do you know that she is colluding with another conman to clean out everything from the Yamazaki family?” The old woman breathed heavily.

”Please explained clearly.”

”If it was not for Makiko, I would not have proof of how shameless and evil that jinx is!” The Old Madam Takahashi was almost breathless. ”Bring her to the old house after you leave the office. I would like to see how she explains herself!”

With that, the old woman disconnected the call.
