Chapter 515 - SEDUCE HIM (1/2)

After Kaito left, Yagi turned to Ayumi and looked at her with cold eyes. He did not have a hint of gentleness or care in him. Before this incident, he always treated her well and allowed her to run around in his territory without care.

Moreover, he did not interfere with her life.

For these reasons, Ayumi's daily life was comfortable since she came to Yagi's place. He gave her a suite in the hotel. She would have food delivered by the chef from the restaurant, and if she wanted something from outside, she would order one of Yagi's subordinates to get it.

When she was looking for a safe refuge, she considered a lot of her suitors. However, she decided to go to Yagi in the final moment, even though they were not overly familiar. She had only known him for a few months.

But she thought it would be best for her to choose him because she could cut ties more cleanly, once the danger to her passed. If she went to long-term friends, they might think that she had a genuine interest in them and push for a physical or emotional relationship.

Of course, she was also worried that Yagi would want something more. However, she was prepared for such a situation. She planned to tell him that they needed to wait until they got to know each other a little better. With such an excuse, she could keep him on the hook for a while.

Who knew that Yagi would not try to develop a close relationship with her? He did not even try to visit her room. He simply told her to call the staff if she needed anything. After that, he did not pester her like a normal suitor or even invite her for a meal.

Ayumi was a little surprised because she thought that Yagi was deeply in love with her. Otherwise, he would not have approached her back then and exchanged contacts with her. Moreover, he occasionally checked up on her.

He also seemed to follow news about her. As soon as things went wrongly with the Shadow Brotherhood, he called to check on her.

Now, she was not sure if he was in love with her, or if everything was in her imagination. Could it be that he did not have a romantic interest in her? She never thought about the feelings of the people pursuing her, but they all seemed to have deep feelings for her.

But if that was the case, why was Yagi looking at her with such cold eyes?

”You should leave the hotel. I cannot afford the trouble you keep bringing to my doorstep.” Yagi said calmly.

Ayumi opened her mouth in surprise at the words. She could not believe that he would chase her away just like that.

”Yagi, what trouble are you talking about?” She asked. ”If it is about Kaito, he will not come back to this place. We are old friends, so it is not unusual in our trade to have a few altercations. He will forget about this incident in a while.”

Yagi looked at her with some hidden contempt. ”Do you think that is truly the case? Do you think that he will forget that you tried to capture him by force for whatever plans you had?”

Ayumi was rendered speechless because she knew the truth. This time, she had gone too far. If she met Kaito again, he was probably not going to let her go. That was another reason she did not want to leave the hotel.

Yagi was at the top of the pyramid in the yakuza, so Kaito could not act without thinking carefully. She needed to change tactics so that she could remain in the safe haven.

”Yagi…” She called out in a soft voice, unlike her usual abrasive manner.

It was obvious that she was trying to be coquettish so that she could seduce Yagi into letting her stay. He looked at her with dark amusement in his eyes. The coyness on Ayumi's face was forced and looked ridiculous.

Yagi was not moved by the look at all. If anything he was a little disgusted because he never expected Ayumi to try to use a cheap trick on him.

”When you came to me, you said that you wanted to stay in a safe place until Kaito returns. Since he has returned, it is time for you to leave.” He said directly.

Ayumi forgot about her plan to act cute. ”Why are you doing this? Didn't you welcome me to your territory because you liked me? Are you lashing out just because you realised that you cannot have me?”

Yagi laughed a little. ”Is that what you think?”
