Chapter 361 - A SOFT HEART (1/2)

Akira helped Kaito onto the couch in her house. After a night on the train, she was tired. However, she was a little worried about the man.

”Lie down.” She ordered.  ​​

Kaito looked at Akira with interest. He knew that she was a hidden boss. However, he did not expect that she was rich enough to afford a house in Blue Mountain Park. The zone was one of the most expensive in Tokyo.

Furthermore, it was difficult to find a willing seller. Most families that owned houses in the area had lived there for generations. Only a fool would be willing to part with such prime real estate.

Therefore, it was surprising that a young lady like Akira lived in this place.

”What are you thinking about?” Akira asked when he did not follow her instructions.

”I am thinking that when I marry you, I can become a househusband.”

Akira cheeks flushed a little. However, she looked at Kaito with a critical eye.

”What skills do you have as a househusband? Can you cook? Do you know how to do laundry?” She asked with a single hand on her hip.

”I can warm the bed.” He responded.

”I have a heater and can get an electric blanket.” She scoffed. ”Lie down.”

Kaito got on his back. Akira unbuttoned his shirt with deft hands. Kaito caught those hands in his and looked at her face.

”You can't take advantage of an injured man.” He cleared his throat and smiled shyly. ”My performance might be poor.”

Akira slapped his hands away. ”You still have the confidence to think about this right now? I am merely examining your condition.”

She exposed his ċhėst and looked at the bruising on his ċhėst. She touched on a few areas on the ċhėst before feeling relief. The damage was not too much. So, either Kaito was exaggerating his pain or he was extremely sėnsɨtɨvė to pain.

She looked at him with narrowed eyes.

”If you keep touching me like that, I will forget about my pain, but I might turn into a beast.” Kaito smiled without a hint of guilt.

Akira realised that her hand was still on his ċhėst, ċȧrėssing the warm skin lightly. She lifted the hand quickly.

”Don't think I don't know that you are a crook pretending to be weak so that you can take advantage of my sympathy.” She huffed.

'But it still worked.' Kaito thought gleefully.

”I am really afraid of pain.” He said out loud.

Akira looked at him and sighed. She went to the kitchen and brought him a cold compression pack to place on his ribs. Then, she found some painkillers and brought them to him with a warm glass of water. As she looked at him wearing a blissful face, she felt that she was too soft-hearted.

”When you feel better, you can leave.” She said.
