Chapter 1071 Tokyo Illusion Part 9

YUHI

'I was always going to confess to her. Unlike Sumire who intended never to say her feelings for me, I was going to tell her eventually.'

Yuhi pulled the girl onto his lap and whispered something in her ear causing her to giggle. "Mm, I understand my dearest."

"Yuhi-san, you really do spoil her too much." Jun shakes his head.

Ran sighs deeply. "Women are strange creatures."

"Ah, you fought with Futaba." Sumire said understanding.

Ran didn't deny those words. "I don't understand. She is clearly being overworked. I just had a private word with Kain Ryuuji and to take her off the large case she was working on, and she flipped out."

"Doesn't that remind you off the time she spoke to Nao, and removed you from the game because she was concerned about your injuries?"

A complicated look flashed through Ran's face.

Momoi Futaba huh? Ran more or less admitted the reason why he no longer has feelings for Sumire.

"The solution is simple, you pay a visit in person and apologize." Renna spoke up.

For the first time Ran was looking at her like she was an actual human. He takes his phone out and quickly types something. "If I get the next train to star town now, I should make it back before our music day performance." Ran looked over for permission.

Yuhi nodded. "Just go, maybe you can confess your feelings too."

Ran's cheeks coloured and he cursed as he stood up and left quickly.

"I don't think he should confess yet." Sumire said. "I think Futaba still likes Atushi."

Yuhi paused. He never considered that. Either way it's hard to think of anything with Sumire on his lap. Seeing the mischievous look in her eyes, Yuhi knew she understood his thoughts. This girl really will be the death of him.

"The music show, Sumire-san you'll be performing too won't you?"

"Mmm, I was thinking of announcing the unit then too."

So, that explains why she wanted to ask Renna immediately.

Sumire was playing with his fingers underneath the desk when she suddenly stopped. Her gaze landed somewhere. Yuhi glanced over and noticed what she was looking at. It was Mashima with a group of artists from D entertainment.

Mashima was being followed by a small man wearing a brown suit. The two were speaking rather loudly. "Mashima-san, you have to admit. These are the best of the best in the company."

"Then why isn't Nagawa Akane here? She is our number one artist."

"Uh but you see, her sister Kanade made it clear-"

Toh's gaze dimmed. "The conflict between two siblings shouldn't affect their profession. I won't remove Nagawa Kanade, but call Akane here immediately and tell the investors to wait."

Yuhi squeezed Sumire's hand under the desk and gave her a reassuring look. Sumire kissed his cheek and mumbled thank you as she stood up.

"Do it now otherwise-" Toh paused finally seeing Sumire. Yuhi couldn't miss how Mashima looked at her.

The eyes of someone who is in love. No doubt Mashima Toh has genuine feelings for Sumire. The artists who were with Mashima all turned their gazes onto Sumire, and some started sneering and throwing insults.

"Hello beautiful."

"Uh hi." Sumire laughed softly. "I didn't really think it through when I came over."

Toh's gaze softened. "Sorry for raising my voice, we were just having a bit of an issue."

Sumire peered over at the other artists. "Ah, they are deliberately not including Akane-chan."

Toh sighs deeply. "I am still adjusting to this petty jealousy from the entertainment industry. I arranged this meet and?greet with the investors for the next project in a more casual location to lighten the mood. But as you can see it's turned into a contest." Toh shakes his head. "What on earth are they wearing?"

"Certainly not something as grand as your clothes sir."

Toh smirked. "I don't need other women wearing my designs. That looks good on you beautiful."

Sumire's wardrobe always looked different, she had many unique clothes he had never seen before but all had a similar style. But, ever since he got back, he noticed that she had more clothes than before. Mashima must have made her all of those.

He watched as Mashima wrapped his arms around the girls waist as he bent down and whispered something in her ear.

"Really? You'll come?"

Toh nodded. "I wouldn't miss it. But promise me you'll wear that dress?"

"Mm, of course since the event is important."

Yuhi wanted to look away but he kept his attention on that side of the room, since the hostile gazes from the other girls were getting worse. Right at that moment pink hair stepped out from the rest of the crowd. Yuhi recognized her immediately. That's Nagawa Kanade huh?

"Ibuki-san, don't you think this is highly inappropriate? Flirting with someone from another company?"

Toh's gaze dimmed but Sumire raised her hand. "Toh isn't one of your artists."

"I see your not denying the flirting."

"What me and Toh do has nothing to do with you, with any of you really." Sumire said as she shrugged. "If you ask me, Toh probably doesn't even know half of your names."

Kanade smiled. "That maybe the case but we are very familiar with each other."

Yuhi whistled. This girl has guts, but she is really digging her own grave. Mashima is letting Sumire handle this now, but once Sumire has gone?

"If he was that familiar with you then he wouldn't be over here talking to me. Then again, I do make better company."

Mashima chuckled and Sumire rolled her eyes. "I'm saying this for your sake but you shouldn't hang around with someone who wears that much perfume."

"Understood beautiful."

Kanade looks at the scene livid. "Mashima-san, the investors would like to greet you, we should get going."

"We aren't going to start anything until Akane comes here."

Kanade's lips curved to a smirk. "Does Ibuki-san here know how close you and my sister became during her time away?"

Sumire rolled her eyes. "I know what happened between them. A relationship between a man and a woman isn't that complicated, surely you should know that."

"Then-"

"But, I trust Toh. I always have and always will. Trust maybe a foreign concept to you since you're always back stabbing those close to you, even your relatives."

If the tension wasn't bad before it was now. Yuhi was going to go over but the doors opened revealing Nagawa Akane.
