150 Chapter 3: Swan, So Much for a Drama free Life

Kagiyama Tetsui looked at the face of his employee Sawa whose face went pale and then returned to its Rosy color he at first thought he saw things went Sawa began her cheerful smile.

He had interview Sawa over two and a half years ago, he remembers her from her days visiting the store before it became a trending company with lots of profits. Then one day he no longer saw her coming to their store. When he asked her about it, he was shocked to learn the truth about the situation. But he couldn't not help her since she has a child to boot too. He is the father of a young boy himself, he has a wife.

But, Sawa had no one even when she gave birth in prison. After hiring her it took a long time for employees to warm up to her. She was convicted for murder after all, but her happy-go-lucky personality won her place in the company and hard work got her to where she was today

As for her son's father she was completely mute about him and never mentioned him, so, he figured that he must be a dirt-bag.

"Ms.Nishioka, this is President Komura Takashi," Kagiyama said warmly

"It's a pleasure to see you. President Komura" Sawa greeted with a slight bow. She is hoping Komura wouldn't recognize her, but just in case she greeted with 'See you' instead of 'Meet you.'

Takashi stood up and shocked Sawa's hand "Nice to meet you to Ms. Nishioka."

Sawa felt relieved inside as her former fiancée didn't recognize her but somewhat sad that he didn't. But then again, she was different from before. But she couldn't also say the same thing about Takashi.

His eyes no longer had any spark nor…

"President Komura, about our first collaboration the commercial. Can we change the location?" Sawa said as she wanted to get down to business as soon as possible.

"Why is the location not good enough?" Takashi frowned

"This season is very cold this year; I want to prevent any injuries."

"My actors can handle it," Takashi said simply "Besides they will only be out there for a limited time."

"I Still believe it would be better to change the location."

"The location is perfect."

"The at least change the date for a warmer day it's supposed to be below 40 outside."

"Then it will affect viewing."

"…." Sawa was silent with her prized smile, which alerted Kagiyama making him stand up. "Then we will proceed the location as suggested." Sawa walking out of the office with a sad look on her face.

"Your employee is rather voiceful, I don't won't it to happen again" Takashi looked at Kagiyama.

Sawa walked down the hall on her way to her office as she started to sing.

I had hoped you'd see my face~♪

Never mind, I'll find someone like you~♪

I wish nothing but the best for you two~♪

Sawa slapped her face and returned her smile as she saw the two bright faces of her assistants and continue to work in a joyful mode.

"Sawa, look at this one. Me and Ando both believe this is the best one or at least the winner for the competition." Henmi said as she handed over a paper two her. Sawa immediately took it joyfully as she read it, it was a new idea for advertising their make-up. While it was the best idea out of the batch that she had seen for some reason she had a bad feeling, but, it was a really good idea so.

'Ah! What the hell' Sawa stood up "I'll take it to the president to see what he thinks. Afterword's if he approves, which, I think he will. You can call the winner so that he can show up for the press conference tomorrow."

Afterwork

"Ms. Nishioka, Haru is sleeping over there I'll go wake him."

"You don't have to Ms. Nakata, and I carry him out" Sawa smiled as she went to pick up her son who immediately work when he smiled his mother's comforting scent. "Ah! You woke up' She nudged his head. He sleepily picked up his drawing from his hand and showed it to her. It was a drawing of her, him, and their cat Titan.

"My Spring always make the best drawings don't you. Let's put it on my wall with all your wonderful drawings" She kissed his forehead. "Have a goodnight Ms. Nakata. Spring say goodbye."

"Good-bye Ms.Nakata"

"Goodbye Haru" Ms. Nakata kept her smile as she watched the pair leaving. 'Haru is such a good buy, its to bad he doesn't have a father.'

The women sighed in her heart.

"Mommy can I watch Little Einstein's," Haru said when they got home, he was fully awake and ready to play for a bit before bed.

"You want to."

Haru shook his little head "I'm a big boy I can stay up a little more" Sawa heartstrings squeezed as she looked at her son's innocent face before turning on the Tv

"We're going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship, zooming through the sky~♪" Haru sang joyfully

"Little Einsteins~♪" Sawa joined him

"Welcome Home, Honey," Chiho said greeting her husband.

Takashi ignored her he had already seen past her white lotus act. But it's such a shame he didn't see in his earlier years he married a snake and it was his damn fault. Then again, he almost married his sister's murderer what could be worse than that.

"I sent in my idea to May's Cosmetics completion they are holding a press conference tomorrow for a winner. I won, and I'll be hired tomorrow" Chiho said as she gave him a cup of tea. "I used a different name so when the press conference comes…. It will be good publicity for the company, and your position as president make be secured."

"Is that so" Takashi responded coldly and then thought of Ms. Nishioka. Her familiar scent he couldn't quite put his finger on it as to why she felt so familiar to him. Also, for some reason, he couldn't shake the feeling that she was testing him when he asked him to change the location. He didn't like her disappointed face afterward either.

The Next Day

The Press Conference was filled with respectable reporters. They weren't bold nor nosy but well tamed human beings. Unlike other Reporters out there.

Clipping

Sawa backs up to the podium after giving a bouquet of flowers to the second and third winners of their Marketing idea competition.

"Next up is the grand Prize Ms. Agano Kiyumi, if you would step forward," Sawa said for it was followed by silence and no movement what-so-ever. "Ms. Agano Kiyumi?" Sawa called again.

"I'm Here" a refined voice appeared from the door. Dressed in a pinked kissed dress with Short-brown hair and eyes like her own was the fake white-lotus Komura Chiho. Sawa smile dropped as the women walked up to the podium. Making Sawa step back as Chiho stepped forward.

The murmurs of the reporters began before she even spoke

"isn't that the wife of President Komura"

"That's the golden Lady Kourma"

"What's she doing here."

"Did she use a Fake name?"

"Hello, Everyone. I'm Komura Chiho wife of President Komura of Rising entertainment. I used a fake name to enter this competition to prove I can be more than just a housewife. I'm here to set an example for all you ladies at home that if I can do it, you can do it too."..

Sawa looked solemnly at the women on the podium who seemed to have the world in her hands
