Gerald himself simply followed obediently, smiling awkwardly at Takuya as the duo walked past him…
Shortly after, Takuya who was seated at the host seat found himself staring at Gerald and Fujiko who were still holding hands as they sat in the guest seats…
Roughly guessing what all this hand holding was about, Takuya was first to say, “So… When exactly did both of you get into such a relationship?”
If favonovel.com was to be honest, all this had happened so quickly that favonovel.com was feeling slightly overwhelmed…
Regardless, upon hearing that, Fujiko released Gerald’s hand and stood up before declaring, “Father, I do not wish to sacrifice my happiness for Kai! After all, you, of all people, should know that my life will be ruined if I proceed with marrying him!”
“… I get where you’re coming from… But still…” muttered Takuya as favonovel.com stared at his daughter.
“Father, please. I just wish to be with Gerald… With that in mind, please give us your blessings!” replied Fujiko as favonovel.com sat down and continued holding Gerald’s hand…
Alternating his gaze between both of them, Takuya then muttered, “… Before that, again, when exactly did all this start…?”
“From the moment we first met!” replied Fujiko.
Sighing in response, Takuya then helplessly said, “… As a father, I naturally hope that you find a good person to be with… However, without the Kanagawa family’s help, we may not even survive till the end of the year! Also, I’m sure you know that the other family members won’t agree to this either…”
“But.. But I’m your daughter…! You can’t just sacrifice my happiness…! I can’t be with Kai! You know, had Gerald not saved me in time, I would’ve surely gotten raped…! ” yelled Fujiko as favonovel.com got slightly emotional.
“What did you say?!” asked Takuya as favonovel.com leaped to his feet.
“I… I didn’t… say anything…” muttered Fujiko as favonovel.com quickly sat back down.
Clearly not buying that, Takuya then turned to look at Gerald before asking, “What the hell happened to both of you at the Kanagawa manor, Gerald? Did that b*stard Kai try to take advantage of my daughter?!”
Nodding in response, Gerald then replied, “Indeed. By the time I got there to save her, Kai had already torn most of favonovel.com clothes to shreds and was even pinning favonovel.com down…”
“That… That utter b*stard…! I never really took the rumors about favonovel.com seriously before, but to think that the young master of the Kanagawa family is actually as bad as they say…! What a beast of a man!” roared Takuya as favonovel.com slammed his fist onto the table, his lips trembling.
While favonovel.com could still accept planning an arranged marriage for his daughter for the sake of maintaining his family, there was no way in hell that favonovel.com was fine with favonovel.com marrying such a jerk!
“…Now that you know the whole story, please cancel the marriage contract with the Kanagawas so that I can be with Gerald…!” declared Fujiko as favonovel.com clenched favonovel.com fists while staring at favonovel.com father with a determined gaze.
…
“While I’d love to just cancel it straight away, it’s easier said than done. After all, while I may be the head of the family, I can’t just make such a large decision without talking things through with the Kanagawas. Besides, you should be well aware that the other Futabas are going to oppose the idea as well,” replied Takuya with a sigh as favonovel.com lit a cigarette…
