Chapter 184 : An Ominous Plan

"Kill her," Master Yamagata said mercilessly. "There is no other way. The Matsumotos have tried bribing her with money, but she wouldn't budge. She even successfully gave birth to Kiyoshi-san's illegitimate daughter."

The elder man cursed under his breath.

"I always said that the Matsumotos are too meek and slow. If it were me, I would kill that woman before Kiyoshi announced his ridiculous plan to marry her."

The ruthlessness in her father's voice caused all the blood to drain from Akiko's face. Tsukasa, on the other hand, was the very picture of composure.

"That is not feasible, Father," he then slowly said. "You seem to forget that Midori Takigawa received The Order Of Rising Sun from the Meiji Emperor personally. It might only be an 8th class, but all order recipients are considered national treasures. Her death will spark a huge commotion. You don't want the Yamagata family's good name to be dragged into the mud."
