Though I received that from Seijurou,

"It's been a month! I didn't know what are they up to! But I couldn't go to the church to volunteer because I am waiting for them!" I complained but shriek when Seijurou's arms suddenly wrapped around my waist, pulling me more to him "your hand is so cold"

"Even though I told you not to wait for them here. They need to adjust their schedule, not you adjusting theirs since they wanted it" he pulled me closer and I could feel his breath on my back, sending thrill over my whole body "also, if my hand is cold, can you warm it up?"

I sighed then faced him, staring at his magnificent eyes "we just did it just a while ago, even yesterday. Sei, if this continues-"

"But even still, we are being careful. So don't worry." He smiled at me, and his cold hand caressed my back "and I am sure that if that happens, we are both betting for that 1%, right?"

"But of course, we also need to expect the other chances." Though when I said that, he sighed "in any case, I want them to go here now and explain the pros of having a business with that company. What is the name again? Can't you just search using the name of their company then be acquainted with the people having same last name?"

"The name of the company is not the name of their family name. Same with yours, right? The Zen media? It is like that. So we had a hard time getting information." He responded, though I somehow felt like he is planning something.

"Hmmmm... now that you mentioned about Zen, I received a message from Piko-san wanting to have a partnership with you. He said that his brother Riou and even his mother seemed did something unbelievable again"

"You haven't seen the news?" He asked me but I wondered what he meant "embezzlement from their own company. They are really crazy"

"What...?"

"So I know why he wants to have business partner, at least he wanted to save the company now, on his own. I am expecting him to message you kne of these days."

"Should I help Piko-san?"

"You don't need to. I am planning anyways. But I am just waiting for his message." He chuckled "so tell him to go to the company, and we'll talk about it"

"Thank you, Seijurou" I cuddled more to him "I don't want grandma's company to go to waste because of their craziness."

"Don't worry. Now that your auntie and Riou are out of the picture, I can help his company now. Anyways, let's sleep. So I have energy tomorrow for another round"

"Eh? Another round?"

"Of course, before I go to work, I need some energy" he responded and gave a kiss in the forehead before dozing off to sleep.

~

Of course, he really did what he said that next morning. But instead of being tired, it became more energy for both of us.

I helped Emi and Enko again in house hold chores, even though they told me not to.

But then around 10 in the morning, Fai-san and a woman, probably the assistant in training, arrived.

"I apologized for arriving this late. We had lots of stuffs to finish. We heard from Seijurou-sama, and we are here to discuss the advanteges of having Impresa group as one of our business partner. This is Ishida Rina, one of our assistants in training"

So the name of the business group they wanted is Impresa group. To think that it is an Italian group.

"Ah, yeah, nice to meet you. I am Akashi (F/N)" I introduced myself and invited them to talk in our outside patio

They explained to me the advantages, like the increase, getting more business partners especially from Italy and more, of course, the name itself said it. But they only mentioned advantages. Indeed Akashi group is a stable group already, but if they have the Impresa group, not just in Japan, in Asia, and America, but Europe will be conquered too. They said.

"I hope you think about it carefully. We are doing this for the company, Masaomi-sama wanted them to be our business partner for a long time now, not just Masaomi-sama but even the president before him."

"I understand. I'll think about it. I'll just go and ask Enko to bring something to eat."

I excused myself and head inside and stayed for couple of minutes before I head to the kitchen to think about it. Indeed, it is a nice company, but... the problem is that Yoshinaga Mayo!

"(F/N)-sama, go back to the patio. I will bring the juice and sandwich" Enko told me and I just nodded.

However, before I exit towards the patio, I halted when I heard Ishida Rina talked

"I am still worried Fai-san"

"As I said, Ishida, (F/N)-sama's decision will be Seijurou-sama's decision. Even Masaomi-sama already said it so we just need to do our job to get her approval."

"But did she even understand what we explained? I heard that she didn't even graduate from university. Did she even know how business works? I wonder what she can do to Akashi-sama? She's been holding him back this past year."

"Ishida, control your mouth. You are here in her house"

"I am still wondering what did Akashi-sama saw in her. I will get her approval, and make sure that he and Mayo-san will get closer. And let Akashi-sama realize that Mayo-san is the one for him"

"Ishida, don't tell me, you decided to get this project because of that reason?"

"Of course! It is still questionable-"

"Then I will drop you off this project"

"Huh?!"

"You don't know anything about Seijurou-sama and (F/N)-sama! So don't meddle in their relationship! And if you will still insist, I will not just drop you off from this project, but also tell Seijurou-sama to fire you"

I heard everything, perfectly. I wanted to accept the approval, since I trust Seijurou and Fai-san. But hearing what that woman said, I again wavered. Enko also arrived, and she was able to listen to their gibberish conversation.

Enko exit to the outside patio with smiling face, even though she heard and saw everything.

"Here's your snacks." I heard Enko's voice

"Thank you. Where is Akashi-sama's wife?" That Ishida Rina asked, she even had a gut to look for me

"Ah, she's preparing now, since she is going somewhere after this and I advice her that we will see you off in her stead. Since your business with her is done, right? Can you please finish these and get yourself out of this house?"

Enko...

"Eh...?"

"I appreciate if you leave silently or should I sew your mouth, Ms. Assistant in training-san?"

"Enko, don't be so rude to our guest. Seijurou-sama will get mad." I heard Emi's voice. Seemed like she also heard it "sewing her mouth is not enough"

"I apologize for her rudeness. Seems like you heard of it. I will do the punishment. We will finish the snacks, and leave. Please let (F/N)-sama know that we will be waiting for her response."

Now I need to think of it again. I headed to our room and change. I need to calm myself.

~
I did my job in teaching the kids, but once done, my ambiance was really dark, and my face couldn't be painted. It is really irritating

"You sure are having a dark aura, (F/N)" I turned around and it's Kazuhiko-san

"Hello, where's Masako-san?"

"Inside talking to the nuns." He answered then sat on the next chair "did something happen?"

"Yeah, something on my husband's company. My decision will be his decision." I sighed and touched the temple of my head "it's making my head hurts. I feel dizzy thinking about it"

"Hmmmm, so your husband is also a businessman?" I nodded and he wanted to say more but his phone rang then excused himself

My head is spinning, the weather? It's irritating!

I need to calm down.

I sighed but dialled Seijurou, but I remembered that he messaged me that he would be in a meeting so I messaged him instead

"I apologize, but I will be selfish. I know how advantage it will be to the company, but I want you to wait more until you find another person who will help you talk to their president. Also, I am fine with Fai-san, but don't get that assistant in training."

I again sigh. I think I need to do it myself now.

Also?

I wonder if Kazuhiko-san is also a businessman? Should I ask?

However, once I stand up, my eyes blank out, and all I could remember was my head spinning, and I lost my conscious.

~Third person Narration~

(F/N) opened her eyes and wondered where she is. It wasn't in the church, but she could smell ethanol inside the room

"You are awake" Masako spoke, making (F/N) look at her side "you lost conscious, and good thing Kazuhiko was fast enough to catch you."

"Thank you very much." She responded and was about to sit when Masako told her not to "it is okay. I am okay now."

"We wanted to call your family, but your phone is locked, and you didn't even have any identification with you"

"Ah, I forgot my bag in our car. I only have my phone today. I apologize and thank you"

"In any case, I think you need to see your husband."

"Eh?"

~

"Akashi-sama, this is unacceptable! We already get a link to Impresa group! Why do wee need to follow the decision of your wife?!" One of the board directors complained agreed by the others

"As I said already, I will not push through with this business partnership unless I find another link. Also, I trust my wife more than anyone else. So now that her decision is to wait, I will also wait" he responded

"If that is your decision, then I will oblige to it. However, onlybmy daughter can help you with Impresa group" Yoshinaga Leo responded

"What if your wife chose the wrong decision-?"

"You are underestimating my wife. She doesn't need to have any connections, she does things naturally and with pure coincidence." Akashi smirked with full confidence and it was then Fai arrived to interrupt "what's wrong?"

"I apologize but, (F/N)-sama is here. And she is currently having a heated discussion with Yoshinaga-san's daughter at the first floor"

~just a while ago~

"As what I said, Akashi-sama is still in the middle of meeting."

"We've been going around with this conversation for 15 minutes already. Tell Seijurou that I am looking for him. We have an important business to talk to!"

"Yoshinaga-san, please calm down"

"Mayo-san, you are here"

"Rina, I received a message that they will not accept my offer!"

"Yes, that was why they had emergency meeting. His no good wife said to wait until they find another person. She's crazy and really holding back everyone!" Ishida was about to retort more but then she was called back to the office and left Mayo on the front desk

"I am going to wait Seijurou in his office"

"I apologize but only authorized personnel can enter his office" the lady in the front desk replied

"I am an authorize person. I can enter there-"

Mayo was then interrupted and was surprised when someone passed by behind her, immediately her brow raised when she heard what she asked "Uhm... where is Seijurou?!" She turned to that voice and it was the woman she didn't know by face but by existence, it was (F/N), who seemed so anxious. Mayo couldn't remember her even though she saw (F/N) during the accident.

"I apologize, Akashi-sama is in the middle of the meeting. Does he expecting you to come?" The same lady who Mayo was talking to answered

"No... so he is still in the meeting."

"Have you messaged him?"

"I haven't-" she responded and was anxious when she realized that her phone wasn't with her "where did I-?"

"You can wait in his office. I will also notify him-"

"Why she can go? And not me?!" Mayo complained to the front desk lady then glared at (F/N), who finally realized Mayo's existence

"You..."

"Who are you? One of Seijurou's women? Give up!"

(F/N) chuckled as she faced her, emitting a very enigmatically smile

"Yoshinaga Mayo, right?"

"Who the hell are you?"

"One of Seijurou's women" she responded. The front lady was scared and nervous at the same time and so he called Fai and notify the situation "you are one of them too, right? A desperate one though"

"He will soon realize that I am the one for him"

"Even though his wife die or not, he will never marry anyone. You will forever wait for something you will never be yours"

"We are in the same boat if that happens-"

"We will never be in the same boat. Akashi Seijurou is mine, and I am his." Once (F/N) stated that, Mayo finally realized who the woman she was talking to and gritted her teeth in anger "I am surprised that you are indeed a beauty, but the fact that you are trying to break a family makes you a rotten bitch"

"You are just holding Seijurou back. Everything you do holds him back. But I can guarantee that I can give what Seijurou wants. Your child died already, you cannot give what he needed, his father will surely accept me. You give Seijurou nothing"

"You sure know your words. But I feel sorry for you, for not knowing anything and lacking of research information. Indeed our child died, our second child"

"Eh?"

"Indeed at the moment we cannot partner with Impresa group, but we can get other groups to help the Akashi group. I give Seijurou nothing? You can say that, but at least I am a better person who can understand not to break other's family."

"You bitch-!"

"I know Seijurou even before you met him in Rakuzan. So I think you better do your research first."

"You really are a bitch!"

"You became worser the last time I saw you, Mayo" (F/N) and even Mayo turned to that voice behind Mayo and it was Kazuhiko "and to think that you are trying to break other's family, even though dad told you that you must not do that, it is really a laughing matter"

"What are you doing here, Kazu-nii?!" She asked him, who had his narrowed towards her. (F/N) could see how nervous Mayo became

(F/N) was lost to what was going on, but then Akashi came running to them, and Fai, Ishida and Yoshinaga Leo were following behind

"Does dad know what you are doing? No, right? If he does, he will be ashame to go back to this company."

"Kazuhiko, what are you doing here? Aren't you busy with your grandfather's business" Yoshinaga Leo asked confusedly "what's going on here?"

"(F/N)?" Akashi asked in calm voice

"Just confronting this desperate woman here who run her mouth nonstop" she responded "but I didn't know that Kazuhiko-san knows her"

"Eeto, Seijurou-kun's wife? What do you mean by desperate woman?" Leo asked, lost to what was going on

"Here (F/N), grandma saw your phone on the car so she asked me to give it to you." He handed her phone then turned to Akashi then back to her "and it is surprising that you are an Akashi. And I apologize for not introducing myself properly. I am Yoshinaga Kazuhiko, and Yoshinaga Leo is my father. But some circumstances, I changed to my mother's last name"

"No... I apologize that I also didn't introduce myself properly."

"Well, that doesn't matter." Kazuhiko chuckled then turned to Akashi again and extended his hand "I am Ueda Kazuhiko, the new president of Impresa Group. I just recently became the president, but I am confident with my business skills. I heard that you wanted to have a business partnership with us? I do not mind. I will come again some other time to discuss it. Thank your wife for this unbelievable coincidence. I could ĺtalk to you now, but since your wife has an important news to you, I will just go back some other time."

Akashi stayed in composure, but (F/N) felt that Akashi already knew that it would happen

"This is still beyond my expectations. But I am looking forward to work with you. Seems like my wife is in your care. Thank you very much."

"That's not it. We are in your wife's care. Grandma become fond of her." Kazuhiko chuckled then turned to his dad "you too dad. I know you still feel bitter that I chose Impresa over your business, but I don't mind working with you, as long as you return your daughter back to her mother. "

"What do you mean-?!"

"Do you know what is your daughter doing? She's trying to break their family, and she was telling her unbelievable words."

"Wait a minute!" Leo hastily shouted "then, why didn't you tell me-"

"Seijurou-sama didn't tell you because (F/N)-sama told him that your business has nothing to do with what your daughter is doing." Fai explained

"But even mentioning that their child died, and for her not giving Akashi anything, Mayo, as your older brother, I am really ashamed of you" he smirked then shook his head "anyways, I am out of here. I will explain everything on later date. Also, I will let (F/N) know when to go here" Kazuhiko waved at them and excused himself

Leo looked at his daughter who is looking down, clenching his fist tightly "Seijurou-kun, I will leave for now. I will be back and talk again things. But I need to talk my daughter first." His voice was calm but he was very intimidating. He grabbed her arm, and led her out of the building

Once the situation calm down, (F/N) sighed but turned to Ishida who was glaring at her

"Don't glare at me like that. If I didn't hear what you said this morning, I might agree by then. Indeed, I didn't graduate university. However, I could clearly understand your explanation about business. But I couldn't understand why you are trying to push someone to other, even though you already know that Seijurou is married, and even saying those words inside our house."

"What do you mean, (F/N)?" Akashi asked but she gazed away in irritation

"Let me explain that in some other time, Seijurou-sama. Kazuhiko-san said that (F/N)-sama has important matter to talk to you. I will take care of explaining to the board of director that we will be having a partnership with Impresa group"

"What is your important news, (F/N)?"

"Let's go first to your office:
