Chapter 396 - NO CHANCE OF SURVIVAL (1/2)

Akira looked at the man and refused to blush. She lifted her face and turned her nose in the air with the dignity of a queen. But to Kaito, she looked completely ridiculous. And cute. She was like the sweetest treasure in the world.

Akira did not know Kaito's thoughts. She ȧssumed that he thought she was ridiculous for acting so possessive. Her nose rose higher with pride, ignoring his laugh. She did not want to care about him because she thought he was making fun of her.  ​​

But she did not do or say anything wrong.

Why should she feel awkward and uncomfortable under his gaze?

However, she could not control her involuntary expressions. Her cheeks and ears did not listen to her. They turned into a beautiful shade of pink, causing Kaito to stretch his hands and pinch her. She slapped his hands away.

”If you have something to say, say it.” She puffed her cheeks.

”What should I say? When I have you to defend my virtue, I feel very safe.” Kaito teased.

Akira's cheeks became a brighter red. She knew she had acted a little dramatically with Hanae, but she felt it was necessary. If she did not deal with that cousin, she would not feel good. Moreover, she could not stand the weird eyes that the woman made at her Kaito.

She had come to think of Kaito as hers.

And she did not like it when people touched her stuff.

”Mind the environment!” Seiji barked from behind them.

Akira stepped away from Kaito, distancing herself from the unrepentant man. She was even more embarrassed when she saw her grandfather standing next to her brother. She did not expect the medical examination to take such a short period.

”Brother-in-law, Grandpa.” Kaito greeted.

Seiji was used to hearing the playful greeting. Unfortunately, Elder Yamazaki did not know about the relationship between Akira and Kaito. He felt like he was losing his mind. He lost his serenity and cool when he realised his daughter was being abducted right before his eyes.

”Who is your grandfather? What are your intentions with my granddaughter?” He asked.

”Naturally, I consider her my one and only wife.” Kaito did not hesitate.

”Who is your wife?” Akira grumbled.

”Have you gone through the appropriate channels to marry her? Don't you know the rules?” Elder Yamazaki regained his calm.

Kaito lowered his head a little forlornly.

”Akira and I do not know the rules or customs because no one taught us about the common practices. But we have already committed to each other for life. Formalities will not change anything because we know our hearts.” Kaito explained.

The elder felt a little guilty, but he was also disappointed that he could not vent his frustrations. He did not know how to scold Kaito or Akira about their relationship after hearing those words.
