Suspicion
“Well, there’s no job left for me to do there so… I’m just doing my old job here, next to the President's side,” I answered with a smile. I naturally didn’t show that I found her appearance here odd.
Instead, I openly and shamelessly hugged Shizu which made Watanabe’s brows twitch.
Perhaps she found it silly that I called it a job when all I was doing in front of her was flaunting our relationship.
But that’s the point. I wanted to see her reaction. If she’s really eavesdropping or watching us from outside – whichever method she used – it would show in her reaction to my responses.
After gulping down once, Watanabe looked like she gathered her wits and lightly smirked.
“Your old job? Is it being the President's boyfriend? I don’t see a President’s Secretary in you right now. Given that you’re hugging her intimately in front of another first-year like us… Does she know?”
