Chapter 138 - 138: Introduction, And Clash



What caught her attention though, was the fact that Eric didn\'t seem to be bothered by this situation in the least.

He seemed really calm, natural, and confident that the people in front of him wouldn\'t be able to achieve anything, he was looking at what was happening just like he was watching a show, or movie.

​​

Just what made him that confident? What kind of deal was he able to do to the old-fashioned Takehsiba Tomiyasu, to convince him to give his daughter to a poor kid!?

No matter how one looked at it there was no way that Takeshiba Tomiyasu would ever agree to something like this if he didn\'t get something better in return.

Anyway, she didn\'t really care what happened with him, and the Takeshiba family as long as they didn\'t disrupt her plans.

She didn\'t love this kid, and neither had she any feelings for him. The reason she accepted his date, and even planned to create an enmity between him and Takeshiba Yuto was to test the last.

She had a feeling that this guy was more than what he looked like, but until now she hadn\'t been able to find something wrong.

And even the enmity she tried to germinate between Eric and Takeshiba Yuto didn\'t work out. There was no news of such a thing ever happening.

One thing was for sure, she was feeling that Eric had become more mysterious, and unpredictable than she thought, most importantly he had become more interesting than before.

But this didn\'t really matter to her, as her fate and future were already sealed due to that \'loving\' father of hers. She had no way to avoid her dark fate, and could only follow her instructions.

While she was thinking like that, she saw that Eric was looking towards her, as there was even a hidden smile at the side of his lips, which sincerely surprised her.

Why was he doing that!? By any chance, did he know anything about her fate or situation? Or did he suspect anything?

Without understanding why Yoshida Gina felt some kind of premonition looking at that look, and hidden smile, but she had no idea if it was a positive or negative premonition.

She could only wait and see what Eric meant with that hidden smile. In the meantime, Eric was holding Takeshiba Aika\'s hand as he said in a calm and natural voice,

"Sorry for the late introduction everyone, I am Eric Jade, I am a foreigner from a small country in Europe, and a new Entrepreneur in Japan.

I don\'t know if you have heard about \'Fragrance Hall\' but I am the owner of that restaurant and the 4 others that will be opened soon.

With respect to my family, I only have my step-mother and my little half-blood brother…"

But he wasn\'t able to continue with his introduction, as Takeshiba\'s family 1st Young Master, Takeshiba Tetsu said in a harsh and angry voice,

"Shut the hell up trash, just who do you think you are!? Just because our father had a week moment and accepted you, doesn\'t mean you have the right to talk to us!"

Then turning towards his father, he continued,

"Father please reconsider, you can\'t allow something like this to happen! It will not only damage our reputation, but it would also cause us trouble with the other families!

This will truly damage our reputation and standing. We will become the laughing stock of the society!"

But as soon as he said these words, Takeshiba Aika jumped like a cat who had her tail stepped upon, as she said towards him in a loud voice,

"First Brother please respect my fiancé, and don\'t talk like that. After all, he is now your brother-in-law as our father has accepted him into the family!"

Her reaction was to be expected, after all, there were already rumors spread that she was in love with a poor kid without a family name, but what happened next really stunned not only him but also the others.

Master Takeshiba, the one who never seemed to get angry, and would always find a solution, turned towards him with a dark and angry face, as he said,

"Just who do you think you are to question my decisions and disrespect the family members without knowing them, you idiot?

I am saying this once and for all, Eric is Aika\'s fiancé and the son-in-law of this family! I don\'t care what you or everyone else thinks about this fact.

If they have anything against this union they can come to me and say whatever they want, but the answer would always be the same!

Hmph, would those people even dare to mess with me and my family!?"

He seemed really angry at how these people were treating Eric, even angrier than Eric himself, who seemed to be expecting something like this.

Takeshiba Tetsu was almost stupefied by his father\'s actions and words, as he had never seen him like this, even when he, his son was the center of a topic, he had acted natural, and calm.

Yet here he was now getting agitated for someone like Eric.  It looked like some kind of joke to him. And of course, the jealousy got the better of him, as he said in a last choice voice,

"Just what has gotten into you father? Why do you want to destroy our family like this? Just what kind of magic, or trick did this guy play on you to make you act like this?

You are leaving us with no other choice but to leave your side, and this house!"

This was truly his last hope, he was thinking that in face of him, and the other members of the family, he would be able to convince him to reconsider, but he was fated to be disappointed!

Master Takeshiba not only didn\'t stop and think about what was going on, but he also said,

"I don\'t care! I don\'t need by my side people who don\'t support me or my decisions. So whoever is displeased with my decision is free to go!

But be careful though, if you take even one step to leave this house, you will be removed from the family tree, and lose any right as a Takeshiba family member!"

He seemed really decided when saying those words. Those words looked like his final verdict, whoever wanted to leave, could leave.

If Eric didn\'t know his character, and also the background he had made up for himself, he would think that he was truly doing this for the love for his daughter, and her happiness.

This man was a truly sly fox, that could even cheat the dead man, making them think they were still alive.

But while Eric was in this line of thought, just imagine the others. They were all dumbfounded by what they just heard.

Even Takeshiba Yuto and Takeshiba Aika who knew about this situation were left speechless, as they had never seen their father like this.

Weirdly though, this just convinced Takeshiba Aika that her decision to stand beside Eric had been the correct one.

When even her sly fox of a father was giving so much value to Eric, then he was certainly someone who would walk far.

On the other hand, Takeshiba Yuto could understand why his father was taking such an approach, firstly he was sure that none of these people would leave the house.

The inheritance of the Takeshiba family was too big for them to give up upon. And secondly, this way he could get a better deal from Eric, after all, he was placing him above his own family members.

But while he could understand this, because he knew what was going on in the background, the others didn\'t, as they couldn\'t believe what they heard.

Especially Takeshiba Tetsu, he was looking at this like he had heard the biggest joke of all time. And in the fury he was, he was about to really leave the house.

But before he could act rashly, his wife pinched him in the waist, as she said in his ear,

"Don\'t be stupid and lose everything rashly. Your second brother is waiting for a chance like this! Lower your head at the moment, and let us look for a solution for him, and your father later!"

The pinch and the words kind of brought him down to Earth, but he was still furious, his father had chosen Eric above him! How could he not be!?

But the fact that he couldn\'t leave the house was bigger than his anger and fury, he couldn\'t lose his inheritance just because of this, he had to find a way to manage the situation.

Thinking for a little more, he finally decided on his words, as he said in a desperate and honest look,

"Father don\'t misunderstand me, I am speaking like this for the good, and future of our family! How could I become an ingrate and leave my family when it most needs me?

I will not leave this family, but let me tell you that I can assure you that this tr-guy has no good intentions, neither to our family, and neither towards our little sister he claims to be in love with!"

He was about to say trash, but he was able to control himself, he could feel that his father was ready to explode once again if he said that word.

His second brother and a few other people just snickered hearing him talk like that, because it was clear that he was afraid of leaving.

Just a moment ago, Takeshiba Kazuya had thought that this was such a good moment to secure his Family Head title, only to be disappointed like this.

Still, things had gone much better than he thought, as the first sparkles of fire between his Elder brother, and his father had been lit up. He just needed to add some oil!

With that said, Kazuya Tetsu thought it would be meaningless to stay and discuss more, as he turned around to leave, but at that moment he heard his father say…
