134 128. Reverse

A group of people who were clamouring now, instantly became silent with a terrified look on their face.

Many of them rubbed their eyes to see if it was an illusion.

Turns out!

Everything was real.

Suddenly, their heart was full of panic and even began to consider how to compensate for their rude behaviour.

It was their fault for not checking and no one would expect this to happen.

And at the same time, they secretly made up their minds to thank this middle aged female reporter.

Damn!

She just saved an imminent bloodbath.

If weren't for her loud reminder, they'd definitely pit Mana Nakiri with many stupid questions and the situation might turned from bad to worst.

Fortunately, things haven't reached that point yet.

No one noticed that a few metres away, a man lowered his eyebrows, looked down at the ground below him, smiling contemptuously.

"The boss was right. I didn't need to move at all. Hehe, humans are humans after all. Such self-absorbed idiots. No wonder my boss doesn't like your race."

"Deciding what's wrong and what's right is entirely circumstantial for those bastards. Basically, they're just like animals, only a little bit smarter. All their actions are based on self-interest, they'll forget the favor they owe, but they'll hold onto the grudges forever."

"Oh, I better inform the boss."

He walked away with a cell phone in his hand and didn't forget to mock the stupidity of humans in his heart.

But, his resentment towards humans hadn't diminished at all.

He hates humans to the very depth of his bone.

Of course, this doesn't mean he'd start slaughtering anyone who crossed his path.

Just draw a line between him and humanity.

His kids were all killed by them mercilessly and wife was almost assaulted by them. If it weren't for his decisiveness, then he'd be living a life full of self-blame and regret.

(A/N: Weakness is the original sin -- Uchiha Madara.)

Now, he's not as weak as he used to and it's all thanks to his Boss.

For his boss, he was full of respect and admiration.

It was he, who gave him power to get revenge.

Power to protect.

Especially, after witnessing his invincible posture in his World, he was utterly convinced in his heart.

Even if you ask to sacrifice his own life...He would do without hesitation.

As for his mission?

He was ordered to clean up if someone makes trouble.

"Hahaha! Lady Nakiri. Our actions have caused you some inconvenience. I hope you can forgive us. It's our negligence to jump to conclusions."

A reporter immediately apologized with a hypocrite smile while wiping the sweat off his forehead.

This reporter was indeed a quick thinker and also didn't expose Mana's relationship with 'him' either.

Others also nodded in unison and immediately changed their attitude.

"Shameless!" Anne covered her mouth and cursed silently in her heart.

She knew who it was.

This was one of their reporters and he was the one who took the initiative to pointed out sharp questions at the beginning.

Now, just look at his face. I'm afraid that even his wife couldn't recognise him.

Mana Nakiri who had been silent till now, waved her hand and said.

"It's okay. I'm not that stingy to pursue such a small matter."

'Thank God'

Only then the female middle aged reporter sighed in relief.

Fortunately, Lady Nakiri didn't mind or else...the consequences would be disastrous.

The character of Izumi Miyamura was known to everyone in this world.

His overprotective attitude towards his wives was one of his traits.

She, no.. they were really afraid that Lady Nakiri would spill the beans about their behaviour. If so, then their career even lives would be finished.

Just look at the endings of those who had provoked Izumi Miyamura.

Recently, they also heard that a young reporter who openly flirted with Misses Tio and Remia Miyamura, has gone missing.

Whose handiwork was it? They knew it very well.

*Cough*

Nakiri coughed to gather everyone's attention.

With her usual cold demeanor, she, not so politely grabbed a long-handled microphone and climbed the podium.

"I won't be wasting time doing pleasantries. Let me get straight to the topic."

Her purple-pinkish eyes turned sharp, exuding endless chills.

Reporters below shivered and lowered their heads.

Thinking that she might be dissatisfied by their attitude.

Mana ignored them and faced the camera.

"Don't think that I have no idea about your deeds, Azami."

As soon her voice fell, everyone looked at her daze.

What's going on?

What did she just say?

Azami?

Isn't that her hus....oh no, ex-husband?

None of them were fools. Instant, they urged their cameraman to record every sentence of her.

As if remembering something, Mana gritted her teeth to suppress the anger in her heart, "Azami, how dare you kill my brother and sister-in-law!"

Boom!

This sentence made everyone freeze.

WTF??

Ki...kill.

Big news!!

As if thinking something, a reporter who asked why Nakiri's eldest son didn't come to the funeral, suddenly felt that this matter wasn't that simple.

And he wasn't the only one. Everyone had the same thought inside their heart.

After all, Naozumi Nakiri was known to be a very humble and benevolent person. So, how could such a person lack the respect for his parents?

It's not that he didn't come....He can't.

No wonder, we've never seen him or his wife for many years.

Mana's emotions were a little erratic remembering the past.

"Okay. Ok. His death didn't satisfy you. You even stoop so low, Azami Nakiri. You and those disgusting old bastards even colluded with police to harass my sister-in-law by spreading words that my brother was a criminal, arousing disgust in other people's hearts and eventually pushing her to the point, where her mental health was affected!"

"You son of a bitch! In the end, she couldn't even recognise her own son... It was you who awakened a beast that shouldn't be provoked!"

Her harsh voice penetrates the ears of every person present there.

In anger, she simply forget that she was to act not say this.

Script went wrong, but it was within expection.

Some reporters even had an unbelievable look on their face.

Who would have thought that Azami Nakiri was this kind of scum?

You don't even need to think why he did it. These reporters haven't fallen to the point where they couldn't think.

Obviously, between him and the patriarch position, the eldest son was the barrier between them, because the second son(Alice's father) had no interest in that position as he had his own business in Europe.

But, the key issue wasn't about his murder. It was with whom he collaborated.

Forgot about those old vipers.. How come even the police were interfering within family matters?

Isn't that illegal?

Are police officers so daring??

This is simply an amazing harvest!

They came for the gold, but found a magnificent pearl.

Countless reporters looked at each other in excitement.

Some had been long upset with the police's self-righteous attitude like they owned the earth.

Hehehe...This piece of news would definitely make their face ache.

Mana took a deep breath. She was carried away now, completely forgetting her original purpose.

Azami, Azami... don't you like the patriarch position that much? Hehehe, then wait and see.

You probably didn't expect that your so-called flawless plans are no more a secret....It is as crystal as water.

_____

Somewhere.

Azami Nakiri who was busy making plans frowned as he felt his heart was tight for some reason.

"No, something must have happened!"

Anxiously, he ordered his subordinates to check if he missed anything.

"I hope it was just my superfluous worry..."

Watching his subordinate's back, he murmured with an uneasy expression.

I've to say that Azami Nakiri really trusts his instinct very much.

As expected from a successful businessman.

Too bad, he provoked someone he shouldn't.

_____

(Back to Mana)

She remembered how Azami's subordinates were desperately searching for her whereabouts.

Why?

Obviously to deal with Izumi.

Only she and her daughter had an emotional bond with him when he was at Nakiri, although Alice was there, but she's not something Azami could touch.

Her bond with her daughter wasn't that great, but deep inside she still cared about her.

Blood is thicker than water after all.

And, don't forget who is behind her.

Seeing eager faces around her, she knew that it was time to deal the final blow.

"Ahem! According to the Imperial family law, if a female marries into a male's house, and in case that the above mentioned female is divorced then she shall lose the status of the Imperial family, right?"

Everyone nodded their head. Not understanding why she brought it up.

While, a few of them immediately understood her meaning.

Oh God!

They had a hunch that whatever comes from her mouth might set off a storm in Japan...maybe the world.

Nakiri clan had a huge reputation around the world.

A smile touched the corner of her mouth and she leaned forward.

"Then, what would happen if the situation was reversed?"

"Same.." Someone blurted out.

Hearing it, the smile on her face widened, she looked exactly like a demoness.

"That's right. I'm officially announcing the Divorce!"

"So, according to the law, from now on he'll have no further contact or meddle with my family affairs." With that declaration, Mana looked at Anne.

"A-Ah!" Anne immediately took out a file from the bag and handed it over.

"Also, the matter of custody of my daughter is on me." Mana said as she took out a few photos from the files, "Because you've been cheating behind my back for years and even have a son with another woman who is the same age as my daughter. This is proof."

She then revealed two shocking photos.

One was Azami and an unfamiliar woman coming out of a love hotel cuddling and another was the same woman holding a 10 years old boy with Azami playing at the beach.

!!!

Reporters present were in uproar.

They hurriedly took a few shots at the pictures and even double checked whether it was forged.

This is another big news.

In their minds, they were glad that they attended this conference on the behalf of their company.

The famous Azami Nakiri, one of the most promising businessmen in the world was actually a murderer and admitted infidelity with another woman behind his wife's back, that too just after their marriage according to Mana Nakiri's words.

Cheating is not uncommon.

It depends on whom you did.

Of course, it might be false, but who are they?

Journalists!

Digging into someone's life is their motto.

They just couldn't find the suitable adjective to describe the emotions they were feeling.

They knew with this amount of evidence if he could bounce back then it'd be a miracle.

And, with that man presence even a miracle would be extremely difficult to occur.

She, Mana Nakiri has every right to divorce this kind of scum and at the same, has a higher chance of obtaining the full custody of her daughter.

As for the ring on Mana's hand?

They acted as if they didn't see anything.

Mana curled her lips slightly.

She put back the photos and left the room with her assistant.

Reporters didn't stop her either. They had enough materials for now.

Before they could leave, a man with black suit approached them.

"I hope you can delete that part where Madam lost her temper and cut some scenes...Also, don't forget to dig up all his past deeds."

After saying this, the man simply left.

"He is?"

One of the reporters asked nervously.

He knew who it was, but subconsciously ignored it.

No way!

"Y-yes. That man's subordinate." The female reporter wiped her forehead and nodded.

Hiss!

Everyone took a deep breath.

The danger level had risen again.

They were being monitored by him.

"Say, what if he tells everything to 'him'?"

"Idiot! Do you not understand the meaning of his last sentence?"

"You mean..."

The reporter from WGO nodded and replied, "He just conveyed the meaning of his master. So, we have to work hard and make him satisfied with us. If not, then get ready."

All of them quickly dispersed as they had to air this recording before 8 A.M. and had to do many edits before that.

For that they need some motivation, right?

Izumi's words had reached their ears.

What's the best motivation than a sword hanging on top of their heads.

So, every second is priceless.
