Yuuki knew that he couldn't turn back right now. He was grateful for the chance he had gotten from Shouko. He definitely wouldn't throw away this chance and get Yaeko back for him. He drove very fast toward her office since he knew that she was still in her office right now.

*brrrm!!!

Machida had also called him to give her a very trustful employee to help her manage the company.

Yuuki thought it would be a great chance for him to invite Yaeko to his company, though, he didn't know whether she would accept it or not. He shook his head and needed to focus to

Yaeko was doing her work in the office. Her complexion was beautiful but she was quite pale. She didn't really have that much appetite in the past few days.

"Hey, you should eat you know," Satsuki said to her while tapping her shoulder. She was really worried about her friends in the past few days.

"I don't have that much appetite," Yaeko said to her. She didn't know why but she felt something would happen today. She shook her head at her and continued to work in the office. She was working in the PR department at this company.

Satsuki put the bread that she had gotten for her on the table. She also sat beside her since she didn't have much job in the morning. Her job was an editor for the author of the light novel and most of the author worked on the night. She would probably go to her author's house when it was noon or late. She didn't have to go that early and she wasn't going to leave this worry wart woman alone.

"How about searching for another man? His specs are just too great for someone in our age," Satsuki said to her. She was worried that Yaeko was being played by this young man since she knew that this guy was just too bright and they were in their forties. Even though they could still maintain their beauty in a few years but she wasn't sure how to manage it in 10 or 20 years later.

Yaeko's expression became ugly and looked away from her. She had heard this conversation several times and didn't want to hear it again.

"Mooo, you're just too stubborn, is he really that great in bed?" Satsuki teased her.

Yaeko became red and looked around. She sighed in relief when she didn't see anyone hear their conversation, "Don't say something stupid in the morning!!!"

"Ow, you're getting angry, tell the big sister, how is your experience with him?" Satsuki said with a smile.

"Shut up or I will throw you away into the street," Yaeko threatened her.

Satsuki raised her hands and shook her head, "Anyway, why don't you look closer? There are a lot of great men in here?" She said while pointing her finger at someone, "Look there! Takimura, he is the leader of our PR department and a divorcee, both of you have something similar to each other, he has asked me to get me to hook up with you."

Yaeko snorted and looked away again. She had gotten a lot of people who wanted her to become their girlfriends or wives but she didn't have that much interest in them.

Satsuki shook her head and said, "Well, let me accompany you on your work today." She picked the bread and ate it slowly while looking at her.

Yaeko also did her job while asking, "How is your daughter?"

"Well, it seems she is doing well on my mother's side," Satsuki said with a very easy tone.

Yaeko sighed at her, "You should take care of your daughter better, you know?" She was really quite amazed at this woman's ability to let her daughter away.

Satsuki shook her head, "No way, I have a debt, there is no need for her to get involved in this matter."

"How much is it?" Yaeko asked.

Satsuki still ate her breakfast and said, "Not much, probably in a few months, I will finish the payment."

"In the end, how can you get into debt?" Yaeko asked. She looked curiously at her since she had never heard of the reason.

Satsuki crushed the beard on her hands and said, "That's a bastard, I want to kill him when I meet him."

Yaeko raised her eyebrows, "You have such a bad choice with men and you want to introduce me to someone?" She looked at her in disbelief.

Satsuki snorted at her and said, "Hmph, say someone who dated her daughter's boyfriend for a while."

Yaeko blushed and looked around again. She sighed in relief when she didn't see anyone notice them, "Bastard, don't say something like that in here, do you want me to get fired??" She knew her relationship frowned upon the society if this was known she could be fired or blackmailed by someone. She only told this friend of her but didn't expect this woman to blabber her mouth.

"Hmph, your son-in-law is powerful, you can get a job when you're fired!!" Satsuki said. She was actually quite jealous of her since she had gotten such a good man. Her face was better than her and she was still younger than Yaeko but she didn't have luck with a man. She started to sob and said, "Anyway, let's go to the bar tonight! I want to drink a lot of beer!"

Yaeko frowned, "How can it suddenly change to drink invitation?" She sighed at her friend and shook her head. She stood up since she needed to get some doc.u.ment on the side.

"Where are you going?" Satsuki asked.

"To get a doc.u.ment, you can wait there," Yaeko said.

Satsuki became very bored and also followed her, "Wait for me!"
