62 I Didn’t Think You Were Such a Rich Young Master!

If Seiji attempted to, he could probably devise some excuse to fool them, but he preferred to tell the truth.

Telling the truth simplified everything. Chiaki and Mika left the store and met up with Seiji outside the entrance before they all left the Grand Spring department store together.

"My apologies..."

"You don’t have to apologize for anything. I only feel awkward about not purchasing anything after trying on so many clothes. I feel bad for the store." Chiaki shrugged as she glanced at Seiji.

"Are you alright, Seiji?" Mika sent him a concerned look.

Seiji smiled at the duo reassuringly.

"I’m fine. I was just slightly shocked at seeing her so unexpectedly. Fortunately, I happened to be outside the store at the time, so she didn’t notice me. Otherwise, that could’ve turned bad, haha..."

Chiaki and Mika stared at him silently.

Seiji slowly retracted his smile as a complex emotion appeared in his eyes.
