Sweet Revenge: My Sweet Life With You!

Chapter 94 - False Truth Shall Be Fed On Ignorant Humans

Ayami sat across Oujiro. No expression could be seen on her face. Kayden stayed outside as he didn't need to listen to their boring talk.

"You've grown into a fine young lady." Oujiro said, making a small talk.

"Grandfather, please don't beat around the bush. What do you need?"

They would only be wasting time if they continued their meaningless small talks. Oujiro snorted at her before finally getting down to business.

"Regarding using my men, I won't talk about it. You're free to use them as you like. I did give them to you as a birthday gift after all. Now…" Oujiro paused and looked straight into her eyes, looking intimidating. "You're marriage with that brat, I accept it. I'll break the engagement agreement between the Lein and Filburn."

"We will formally break off the engagement tomorrow. You have to be there or else…" There was a dangerous glint in his eyes as he gazed at her. "…You know what will happen."

"I understand. I will be present tomorrow and of course, I won't do anything shameful that will embarrass the name of Lein."

Oujiro nodded his head and dismissed her. Before she could completely leave the room, Oujiro spoke.

"One more thing. You are free to do anything you want as long as it's not anything that would tarnish our reputation."

Ayami waited for a while to hear what more of what he wanted to say but he didn't speak any further so she left.

"Live a happy life from here on." Oujiro muttered to himself.

"How did it go?" Kayden asked as soon as he saw her.

"It was okay." Ayami smiled at him. "Now that we're done, how about I show you around."

Then, without waiting for his answer. Ayami held his hand and dragged him.

They toured around the whole place. Ayami acted like an enthusiastic tour guide while Kayden acted like a tourist who was visiting the spot for the first time.

"And this place, over there— Watch out for the traps. So anyways, this place is called the punishment room."

The contents of their tour was dark in contrast to the bright and enthusiastic tone of the tourist guide and tourist.

…All is good if they are enjoying it.

When the day ended the guests joined the Lein Family's dinner, which only consisted of Oujiro and his heir, Shun. The other relatives were out as per the patriarch's instructions.

Oujiro sat at the head seat of the long table. Shun sat alone on the left side while Ayami was in between Kayden and Celine on the right side.

"So, how did the two of you meet?" Ayami asked in the middle of the oppressive mood.

"Ah, that…" Shun seemed reluctant to tell her that, especially in front of the patriarch. Kayden leaned in to her and whispered, "I'll secretly tell you later."

Shun glared at him. "What did you tell her?"

"I just told why you were embarrassed to tell her the story when we first met."

"You…!" Shun felt his head throbbing. This annoying junior of his has become even more annoying than before.

Good thing that the patriarch was there or else it would have escalated into a food fight.

"Shun."

Shun stopped his behavior and became quiet. Just the patriarch saying his name rendered him into this state.

"Party pooper." Kayden spoke to himself. His voice was audible enough for everyone to hear.

This brat!

Oujiro's lips twitched. He wanted to kick out this brat but he could not do so. He could only lament in his heart.

Ping!

Just then, everyone heard a ringtone. All of them looked towards the source—Kayden's pockets.

"No phones at the table." Oujiro chided.

"Sorry, forgot to mute it."

Though he said that he still fished out his phone and checked it nonchalantly. The others went back to eating.

His face turned frosty when he read the contents of the message, making Ayami look curious. Before she had the chance to look at it, he shut it off.

"Sorry, I have some urgent matters to deal with. Enjoy your dinner." He said dryly as he stood up. Kayden stared at Ayami for a few seconds. It made her wonder if she has something on her face.

Then, in front of everybody, Kayden kissed her cheeks and ran away before she could even manage to react.

Shun's angry fit of cough as he choke on his food and Celine's small squeal, brought her out of her daze. Oujiro, in particular, had no reaction.

Ayami touched her cheeks, that were red from embarrassment. She cleared her throat and spoke.

"Ahem, Shun, I think you need some water." She said and passed him a glass of water with shaky hands. He clearly looked like he was about to die.

"Let's continue eating."

***

On the web, various articles were circulating—which Ayami was still unaware of. This particular search was on the no. 1 trending searches.

The contents of it… it was about Celine's family which were accused of doing under the table deals, accusing the wrong person to send to jail, and being a fraud. What's more was Ayami's family—the Gardners—was involved.

Of course, none of it was true. But is the truth really important for those who want to see the world burn? No, they would even add fuel to the fire.

Those netizens who did not know the truth would be swayed, blindly following the mass. And when the truth did come out, how many of them would believe it? Perhaps, there would be many if there were strong evidences. Even so, they would soon forget it and go on with their daily lives and new scandals would emerge for them to throw dirt on.

Those people who were thrown in the spotlight were for their own entertainment. They would wear mask, and enjoy the show as an audience.

Nobody hopes to be thrown on the stage where millions of people will throw negative comments.

People will not realize how lucky they are until they receive a punishment for being ignorant and a hypocrite.

"Humans are really interesting toys."

The person wearing a mask—Boss Yue— smiled while scrolling on the web reading the comments of the people sitting on high seats.

Their preparation was complete and it was time to start.
