Chapter 107: Kill the Germs

It was still outside the gate of the office but for Chiaki it felt like the mansion was forever unreachable. She was scared to the bone about the lord's reaction, especially at how cold he was at ordering the guard.

Chiaki knew it was a tumultuous mood that the lord had, it was difficult to ascertain what his predisposition was at any moment. When he was at the South Manor, he was indeed calmer, but when he was back at the Northern Mansion, his jurisdiction office, his aura was back to the ruthless ruler he was before he married Chiaki.

It was better to assume the worst, so Chiaki didn't dare to try her luck. Just for not many steps out the office, she walked behind the lord, keeping herself at a distance like a guilty one.

She even didn't dare to raise her head and see his back, she only glanced at it as she traced the path back to the main road.
