A Clever Move!

Day Seventy-Six…

~~*****~~

[ At Hiroshi's Villa… ]

Mr. Hiroshi felt relieved when Jane obediently followed Kazuki. But Kazuki informed him that Jane went to see Nathan to say goodbye. 

"Are you done packing some stuff for our travel tomorrow?" Mr. Hiroshi asked his daughter, assessing her. Jane was smiling at him tenderly so he assumed that Nathan didn't say a thing to her.

"Pa, I don't have to pack. Besides, we will go back here the day after tomorrow, am I right?" Jane sat beside her father.

Mr. Hiroshi just smiled faintly, hesitant to say yes. If only she would agree, then he would like her to stay in Country J, preventing her from seeing Nathan frequently. 

'I wonder if she can learn to love Tatsumi… giving him a chance. He is a good man. A very devoted man.' Mr. Hiroshi pondered to himself.

"By the way, Pa… I have something to confess." Jane took his hand as she cast a meaningful look at him.
