Chapter 26 - 25: A Battle of Wits and Courage
In the bathroom, Yukio finished her shower and stared at the fluffy pajamas her daughter had brought her, feeling utterly dismayed.
She had so many beautiful sleepwear options, yet her daughter had insisted on choosing a set that was utterly lacking in visual appeal, let alone any hint of seductiveness.
If she went out dressed like this, Roland probably wouldn’t even glance at her—an outcome Yukio simply couldn’t accept.
A dangerous but bold thought flickered through her mind: *Since the towel is banned, and this thick outfit offers no allure, why not... just go out naked?
The idea was fleeting, but it had indeed crossed her mind.
If her "naked towel offensive" had already been so effective, wouldn’t removing the towel altogether be the ultimate move?
Yukio was certain it would be decisive and swift victory, but it would also shatter her relationship with her daughter beyond repair.
Who would want to see their mother, in her eagerness to be intimate with her daughter own man, not even bother to dress in front of her own daughter?
Regardless, that was clearly going too far, so Yukio had to settle for a compromise...
