4.67% Her Wicked CEO: How To Seduce A Hikikomori Wife? / Chapter 14: No need for fake care

Chương 14: No need for fake care

A shipment arrives at the Kamiyama Mansion at around 6 of the morning for Takeuchi Rie. Harumi takes the box to her room. Rie opens the door after the first knock. She doesn't look like she slept last night.

"Reliable delivery. Now, I have something to wear." She takes the box from Harumi. "You can leave the boxes in front of the door from now on after knocking the door once."

Harumi gives her a bow. "As you wish, Miss."

"You are better than the other ones." Rie closes the door after saying those words. Harumi smiles lightly.

Kiyohira comes down for breakfast. Takeshi and his grandmother are already waiting for him. Takeshi is dressed in his school uniform.

"Is elder sister not coming for breakfast?" He looks at his grandmother.

"She said that she wants to eat in her room." Grandmother Kamiyama glances at Harumi. "Did you send her breakfast?"

Harumi shakes her head. "She said that she is full. She left the house already."

"What?" Kiyohira raises his brow sharply. "Why didn't you inform me?"

"Master, you were sleeping." She looks down at her feet apologetically. "She left at 6:15."

Kiyohira looks at his watch. It is 7:15 now. She is supposed to go to work today.

***

I look at the rubbles. They have really done it. My house is completely broken. There is nothing left.

There was nothing worthwhile inside that house. My relatives were disappointed and furious that my grandparents left me the house. They came and took every item from the house. I watched them fight over it among themselves. They didn't even leave a single photo. I think that they wanted to spite me.

It was an empty house that day. My grandfather died when I was in high school. My grandmother died around five years ago. After she was gone, there was nothing left. It was not easy living alone at first.

Everyone who ever cared about me is dead.

I sigh. The house is also broken now. There is nothing left for me in this world. I don't even want this place anymore. I don't want to go back to the Kamiyama family either. But, if I disappear, their lives will not be good. That woman's son is still in high school.

I don't care about the Kamiyama family. But, I don't want my someone to go through what I went through. Kids can be crueller than adults. When it is over, I will disappear.

I look up at the sky. I hope that I can disappear with the wind.

Kiyohira looks at the lone figure. He finds her right where he thought she would be. She is wearing an oversized hoodie and blue jeans. Her hands are inside her hoodie's pockets. She is looking up at the sky. There is something in those eyes that stop him from approaching her.

She is unreachable. She is like the lone star that is drowning in the ocean. He wants to grab her hand and pulls her into his embrace. He frowns when he realizes. What is he thinking?

"That's just pity for a person who is human waste," He tells himself. Having sex with her is just for his release. He won't do it with her again. There are plenty of women who want to throw themselves at him.

She smiles suddenly, though her eyes are still sad. She covers her head under the hood. She turns around in his direction. Her smile disappears when she sees him.

"Did you think that I will run away?" She asks him after a long silence. "I will stay until it is over. You better build my house soon."

"Did you eat something?" He walks to her. This is not a concern. If she gets sick while she is staying at the Kamiyama family, it might bring unnecessary attention. He doesn't care if she starves herself to death.

She raises her brow. She smiles at him darkly. "Why, Kamiyama? Are you starting to care about me because we did it? Are you one of those clingy types, huh? I thought that you were no-strings-attached-type of fuck boy."

Kiyohira wants to break her jaw and strangle her. He squints at her with anger and barks, "Shut up."

"Sensitive." She steps closer to him. Her eyes have a dark gleam. "Kiyohira, it is the truth. I only fucked you to get it out of my system. I hate you and your family. It won't change either. So, there is no need for fake care or cuddles because we have used each other's bodies. You don't have to care about whether I eat or not. In front of the outsiders, we can pretend like we are family. I will go to work like you want me to. Let's keep this professional, shall we?"

He purses his lips. He hates her. Because of her, everything is going wrong in his life. Whenever he sees her, he can't control himself. She drives him insane.

She doesn't care about what happened between them. Why does he care then? It's good if she wants to keep things like this between them. He won't ever touch her again. He won't fall for her seduction either.

"Fine," He tells her curtly. "To the outsiders, you have to act like a normal person. Let's go. I will take you to your workplace."

"No, thanks." She shows him her phone. "I know the address. It is the fashion department, right? I will find the way by myself."

"Wait." He stops her. "I will take you. The car is here."

"No, thanks." She jerks his hand away. She walks away from him. Kiyohira is disturbed by her attitude. He fists his hands and holds himself back from dragging her to his car forcefully.

For now, he will let her do what she wants.


Chương 15: Don't have any interest, right?

People in formal clothes are rushing to the building with full might. I might be the only one in a hoodie and jeans. I go to the receptionist and ask her where the fashion department is.

"19th floor," She tells me without giving me a glance.

A crowd is already waiting in front of the elevator. I contemplate if I can climb up to the 19th floor. That seems like too much work.

Climb or crowd? Climb or crowd? Climb or crowd?

Suddenly, someone grabs my hand and drags me along with him. This Kamiyama Bastard! I can feel people's eyes on us. If you do this in public, people will misunderstand. Why can't you do what I ask you to do? You only have to ignore my existence, you bastard!

He walks straight into the elevator and lets go of my hand. He pushes the button for the 19th floor and 23rd floor. He doesn't give me one glance.

"Kiyohira, you are early today." I hear someone say. I pull my hood down and quietly wait for the 19th floor. Why isn't it the 1st or 2nd floor? Tch!

"Eichi." His voice is calm. That's how he speaks to other people, huh? When it comes to me, he is always mad.

"I heard in the news that your step-sister is joining the company."

Most people get off on the next floor. The elevator has fewer people now.

"Yes." His reply is short and uninviting to anymore question.

"Which department?" This Eichi guy can't take a hint. Did he forget that there are other people here?

When Kamiyama doesn't answer him, he leans closer Kamiyama and whispers, "I heard in the news that she is a hikikomori."

I resist the urge to turn and look at this Eichi. Who is he to speak to his boss like this? From the corner of my eyes, I notice that he is wearing a black shirt. I will remember this.

"Will she be okay here?" Eichi asks softly.

"Don't be nosy."

"Can you tell me her name? I will keep a watch over her."

By that time, there is only Eichi, Kamiyama, and Me. I try to keep myself composed as I wait for the 19th floor to arrive.

"No." Kamiyama's finger suddenly grazes mine. I pull my hands inside my pockets. What's he doing? "She's mine to watch for."

Who's yours? Does he think that I am his property, now? Hah! I will teach you a lesson, Bastard. Just you wait. I will break your delusion. This frog bastard dares to look at the emperor like me.

"I see. It is a huge matter." Eichi lets out a depressed sigh. "Our stocks are going down. Our competitors are trying this opportunity to use it against us."

"You have a big mouth, Eichi. Have you realized that there are other people here?"

"Kamiyama, it's our employees. They know what they should hear and whatnot." Suddenly, someone puts his hands over my shoulder. "Do you work in the fashion department?"

"Let go of her." I hear Kamiyama growl at him. Seriously?

I ignore him and lift my head to look at this Eichi. He is gazing down at me with his intelligent and amused eyes. This guy knows.

"I started today." I smile at him. "My name is Takeuchi Rie."

"I will remember that name." He lets off of me. "Your floor is here."

***

Kiyohira watches her get off the 19th floor. She doesn't turn around once.

She didn't utter a single word when he was talking about him with Eichi. She didn't push Eichi away when he touched her shoulder. She even smiled at that guy.

He can't understand this woman. Does she allow any man to touch her? Is she really that kind of woman?

From his perspective, a hikikomori like her would be shy or introverted around people because she spent a long time inside her house. She isn't like that at all. She is just aloof and distant. She didn't look at him once.

His jaw tightens. Eichi grins at him and slaps his back.

"Kiyohira, your step-sister is interesting."

"How did you know?" Kiyohira is tensed.

"I saw you dragging her into the elevator." Eichi puts his elbow on his shoulder. "Most employees got off on the wrong floor because they couldn't be calm in the same elevator around you and me. She stayed still and didn't react when I was talking about something that she should not know. I saw you stealing glances at her too. You are quite protective of her. Kiyohira, is there something going on between you and her?"

Kiyohira mentally curses himself for his lapses in front of Eichi. He couldn't ignore her. He doesn't know why he is uneasy. She didn't eat anything during the day. At dinner, she didn't eat one bite properly. In the morning, she left before breakfast. He is sure that she didn't have any breakfast either. She looks like she didn't sleep much last night. Will she be alright today?

Because of that, he forgot for a second what kind of person Takashima Eichi is. Takashima Eichi is the CFO of the Kamiyama Group. He is his close friend for more than sixteen years. They went to school together. They even went to the same university. Eichi has a habit of taking a liking to anything that he likes.

It's not like he likes her. It is better if she doesn't attract Eichi's attention.

"Something is going on between you?" Eichi is surprised when Kiyohira doesn't refute his words. He follows Kiyohira to his office. Mizutani Isami, Kamiyama Kiyohiro's high maintenance assistant, stands up when she watched them enter. She gives them a slight bow. Kiyohira doesn't even look at her. Eichi smiles and returns her bow politely before he follows Kamiyama into his office.

He takes a seat opposite of Kiyohira.

"You made three lapses. Number 1 is that you never touch a woman." Eichi raises his index finger in the air. "Number 2 is that you kept looking at her. You forgot that there are people around you. You were restless. I saw you reaching for her hand. You even said that she is yours to watch over. Kiyohira, that's bold."

"A stepbrother can keep a watch over his stepsister who likes to cause trouble." Kiyohira picks up the report from his table. "I didn't deliberately touch her hand. It was accidental."

He is still annoyed by how she had placed her hands inside her pockets to avoid his touch. She's petty.

Eichi smirks at him. "So, you didn't touch her hand deliberately. You were stealing glances because you were watching your step-sister. You didn't growl at me when I touched her shoulders. I didn't see any jealousy at all."

"I didn't get jealous." Kiyohira glares at him.

"I am your best friend and your only friend, Kiyohira" Eichi lights a cigarette. He has always self-proclaims himself as his best friend. "I know you more than your family members. Tell me now. How did it happen? Was it you or her who initiated it? I want to know why would you like a woman like her. Is it the forbidden aspect? She is your step-sister after all. Kiyohira, I didn't know that you were into that type of person."

Kiyohira puts down the report. "Nothing happened between me and her. Don't build a mountain out of a mole-hill."

Eichi looks him intently. Kiyohira curses him inside his mind. This guy knows him too much. He didn't mind it before. Now, he minds it the most. He doesn't realize that he has started to mind a lot of things since she appeared in his life.

"Eichi, you are mistaken. Nothing happened between me and her." He has to only lie until it becomes the truth. "She won't be here for long. When everything is fixed, she will leave."

"Kiyohira, if nothing is between you and her, you must be okay if I play with her. I have never tasted her type." Eichi has a challenging look in his eyes. "You don't have any interest, right?"

"None." Kiyohira doesn't leak any emotion for him to sniff. "Do whatever you want as long as it doesn't cause trouble to the Kamiyama Group."

Eichi gives him the cigarette. Kiyohira takes it and smokes while quietly gazing at the city from his office.

Eichi whistles a song. That won't do. He has to cause trouble.
