Chapter 147: Silent Deceptions ( 147 )
In a quiet corner of the lounge, after the formalities ended, Satomi leaned in toward her father, her voice just a breath above a whisper.
"Papa~" she said softly.
Satoshi gave her a smirk, whispering back, "Good girl~"
"With this," he murmured, "our company... our success... it’ll all be secured."
"Yes~" Satomi breathed.
Satoshi’s voice dropped lower. "Just make sure Haruki doesn’t go sniffing around other women."
Satomi gave a small, amused smile. "I will. But knowing how busy we’ll be... I’m sure Mom can keep an eye on him."
Satoshi nodded slowly. "Yes. Your husband respects her."
"No, Papa~" Satomi whispered with a hint of a smirk.
"It’s more like... he’s scared of her. He wouldn’t even dare to flirt if Mom’s in the same house."
"Hmm... perfect."
