Kapitel 564: I must protect Brother

"No need."

Seiji felt that it would be best for him to not hear this… at least for now.

Seeing him like this, Chiaki didn't insist. She happily said good night and watched him leave.

Seiji returned home to see that Shika had stayed up to wait for his return as expected.

He sat down across from his adopted younger sister and looked at her.

Shika looked back at him.

They exchanged glances… Seiji felt as if everything he wanted to say had been seen through by her already.

Then, what should he say? What did Shika need to hear most, and what did he really want to express most right now?

Seiji decided to bring out his shameless resolve from earlier!

"Shika-chan… just now, I accepted Chiaki, just like how I accepted Mika. The current me is now unmistakably a scumbag man. And precisely because of it, no matter what you think of me, I'm still going to stick by you!"
