She was just about to say that she would immediately book a different hotel when he interrupted. "Because you're not here. I miss you."
"What?" Her voice weakened when she realized what he had just said.
"I miss you, Zaria." He repeated in his deep, seductive voice that was full of longing.
She almost didn't know what to say. "Sir…"
"You know you don't have to call me that." He cut her off.
"I still want to. Boss, please eat and have some rest. You will meet with Mr. Sano at 16:00 (GMT+9). You have about an hour and a half to catch up on some sleep."
Although she gave him a reasonable reminder, he knew that she was doing it just to change the topic. She was still mad at him.
She couldn't be blamed. It was he who had wrecked the closeness that had started to blossom between them, all thanks to a moment of anger. He could only sigh and think of a way to make it up to her.
For those who don't get it;
"The emperor's new robe" is a term from an old tale about an amperor who was swindled by designers who claimed to be able to create a robe so beautiful and powerful that it can only be seen by the smartest people(share the variations you know, lol).
So everyone pretended to see the magnificent robe, which didn't exist, until a little boy pointed out that the emperor had no clothes on XD.
Basically, "the emperor's new robe" is used to mean "wearing nothing"
