Daiki looked a little strained, but he was still handsome for a middle-aged man. However, his unpleasant expression made it impossible for people to enjoy his good looks. His sharp gaze landed on his former wife, who was still refusing to stamp their divorce papers.
"What are you doing here?" He asked angrily.
"Daiki, how can you still be angry with me?" Sayaka asked with a low voice and wronged look.
The question was quite foolish to the people around looking at the scene, including the driver. However, Sayaka asked the question from the bottom of her heart. To her, Daiki was someone who would not let her suffer even for a moment.
His love was unconditional.
She knew she had made a major mistake, and it had been exposed dramatically. But she did not believe that he would divorce her. Initially, she was only willing to move out and stay out of Daiki's way until he cooled down and stopped being angry with her.
After a few months, she was sure that he would be more receptive to her return. As long as he was willing to give in an inch, she was sure that she could convince him to let go of his grudge and forgive her. Then, they could go back to how things were.
To Sayaka, Daiki would always be the man who loved her the most in the world. He had pampered her to the high heavens, and he even covered up for all her wrongdoings. And despite his high position, he had always been faithful to her.
She knew for a fact that a lot of women had tried to get together with him, even though they were aware that he was married. Even her sister Kaoru had also tried her luck at some point so that she could live a better life.
Sayaka had never cared about these things. In fact, she liked it when people hit on Daiki because it made her feel good when he rejected them for her. She was always especially happy when he turned down young and hot women.
How could someone who loved her to that extent be willing to let her go just like that?
She did not believe he did not have any more feelings for her. This period was just a test of the strength of their relationship. And regardless of what happened, she would not watch while the wonderful man she had always considered hers was snatched by another hussy.
"I have made it clear that you are not welcome in this place. If you are ready to sign the divorce papers, you will have to wait until tomorrow. I am spending the rest of the day with my daughter." Daiki said with a chill.
"She is also my daughter," Sayaka said instead of pursuing the issue of the divorce. "I would also like to spend more time with her and apologise properly."
Daiki turned his eyes to Akira. His heart ached when he saw her. He could imagine the hardships she had encountered outside without her family during the past few months. If he had made it in time the last time she was at home, he would have made sure she stayed in Mountain Ridge.
He was not one to care about the murmurings of the public. He had already planned to take care of Akira and his grandchild once he found the entire occurrence on that day. Unfortunately, she had left the city without a trace.
If it were not for the reassurance that she was alright by those officers before they left his home, he would have looked for her in every corner.
"I am the one who let her in, Dad," Akira said with a subtle smile.
"You don't have to be considerate about me, Akira. If you do not want to see her, don't force yourself." Daiki said before glaring at Sayaka.
If he was the kind of person who manipulated the law, he would have ensured that his wife stayed in jail and got sent to prison. After all, she had committed a grave mistake by attempting to send their daughter to a horrible place.
Unfortunately, it was hard for her to be prosecuted because she had not caused physical harm. Moreover, the law enforcement officers were more interested in taking down the convent. Ultimately, she had been released after a while.
Regardless of this outcome, he felt that the woman was shameful. She dared to show up and even call Akira her daughter so naturally. If she had a conscience, she would repent for her actions in a quiet way and avoid showing up before them.
"Don't worry, Dad. I never treat myself poorly." Akira smiled.
Daiki finally smiled. "Come in. Do not stand out in the cold. Maria has already ordered the chef to make some of your favourite dishes."
"That is so nice. By the way, this person here is called Iekami Taiki. He is Kaito's uncle." Akira introduced the quiet man beside her.
"Iekami? I have never heard of them." Daiki frowned.
He wondered if the man was a relative of the Takahashis.
And the worst part was that he thought his marriage was going well. He had given up everything. Even when he was not able to return early from work, he would make an effort to please his wife and cover up for her shortcomings. Learning about the affair was a slap to his face.
So, the Takahashi family had become a forbidden word to him.
Unfortunately, his daughter seemed set on a relationship with a Takahashi man. The thought made him unable to sleep at night, especially after the return of Kaito and Akira. He could only comfort himself by reminding himself that Kaito did not grow up in the family.
As for the name Iekami, it was quite rare. He would have remembered if he encountered someone with that surname. Moreover, the man with his daughter was quite distinctive in appearance, so he was sure they had never met.
"He is from Kaito's maternal side of the family," Akira responded. "He is staying with us for a while, so you might see him a lot."
Taiki nodded in greeting to the older man. He did not put a lot of people in his eyes, but he knew he had to show some consideration towards Akira's father.
Sayaka trailed behind the three people without shame. Even though no one was friendly to her, Akira had not chased her away. It seemed like the girl still had some attachment to her. The thought made Sayaka a little complacent.
As long as she had Akira on her side, it would only be a matter of time before she got Daiki back.
