Chapter 42 - Chapter 42 Give Up, Your Advantage Isn't as Big as Mine!

As fatal and charming as red wine, mellow and full of temptation.

Her purple eyes were like that.

Her deep purple hair stuck to her cheeks, no particular hairstyle, but even so, it couldn't hide her beauty.

Sayuri looked at Kaito like this, imprinting his face with her purple pupils.

"Sayuri, this joke isn't..."

"No, I'm not joking. After all, I've always been attracted to looks. So what if I like you?"

This point seemed true; otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen her original husband, even competing with his ex-girlfriend and eventually winning.

What was the reason?

He was very handsome, as described in the novel.

In this regard, it couldn't be said Sayuri was wrong.

Men like beautiful women, and women naturally like handsome men.

Similarly, men have things they like to look at, and women naturally have their spiritual food, composed of handsome men.

Under normal circumstances, women don't show it as obviously as men, but once they do, men might not be able to compete.

Kaito, often afraid to speak in the chat group, knew this well.

"Uh... aren't you..."

"I'm already divorced."

"Ah???"

'Oh dear, she's already divorced???'

"We divorced around noon yesterday, just haven't gone through the formal procedures yet."

"..."

Now Kaito finally understood.

Why, when introducing Eriri, she was Sawamura Eriri, not Sawamura Spencer Eriri.

Besides, she mentioned drawing two divination cards...

Whether the chat group intended this or it was Sayuri's fate, he didn't know.

What happened in between, he could guess.

In this state, it was understandable that Sayuri, due to her sadness, would act like this.

"But what about your daughter? Weren't you thinking of having me help your daughter get rid of her childhood friend, Aki Tomoya?"

"Hehe, we can talk about that later~ You're just too attractive. I have to catch you faster than anyone else in the group~"

Sayuri showed a somewhat cunning smile.

"So, you actually know how to swim?"

"No, I really can't. I learned a bit as a child, but forgot long ago."

She confessed very frankly, then stopped caring about the others, just kept holding Kaito, burying her head in his chest, feeling his heartbeat.

"Kaito, your heart is beating very fast. Feel mine too, okay?"

"Hmm, I feel it. And I hear your heart singing: I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to grow up~"

"???"

Sayuri was stunned for a moment, pulled back, looked at Kaito blankly, then suddenly realized something. Her face flushed with embarrassment and anger as she beat her fists on Kaito's shoulder.

"You're so mean!"

"Ahem, can you get down? I feel like a lot of people are watching us."

"Hmph, let them watch. I'm going to grab you first and make them jealous!"

"Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮"

She pouted cutely, then sneaked a peek at the others. Indeed, they were all looking this way.

Among them, Shodai and Misuzu's eyes were filled with anger.

Kie was too shy to look their way. Sephie and Irisviel were chatting and laughing, seemingly unaffected. Tearju, for some reason, had returned to the shore at some point.

She covered Eve's eyes with both hands, then tightly closed her own, but secretly opened them just a tiny bit. (T/N: I just remembered that Yami is Eve's name after she became assassin, so I'll be using Eve for her name from now on.)

To be fair, they weren't doing anything!

It was completely because Sayuri was tired and clung to Kaito!

Oh, Kaito didn't see, he only felt the third-degree burns on his back from the stares.

On the other side, their daughters were even more embarrassed. They followed Mikoto and went to where Ako was building a sandcastle, planning to ignore the situation.

"Oh, it seems Brother Kaito is very popular!"

Playing in the shallow water, the eldest sister Lala said with sparkling eyes, also envious and wanting to cling to Kaito like Sayuri.

"Hmph, womanizer. Definitely not a good man."

Nana said, her face reddening with disgust.

"Well... that's what mom said. Brother Kaito is very charming."

Momo's attention had been on Kaito.

Initially, she was also amazed by Kaito's handsomeness. But as for whether she would like Kaito, it seemed impossible now.

Among the three sisters, she was the most steady, so she needed to observe first, to see what kind of person Kaito was.

But so far, Kaito seemed very popular, besides being very skilled, he's also able to use rock superpowers and protect them.

"Misuzu, this woman is a formidable rival. What do you think?"

"Yeah, my son-in-law is going to be snatched away by her. Damn it, and she's just a newbie!"

"Huh? Heh, stop pretending. From the moment you saw Kaito, you were paying more attention to him than I was, right?"

Shodai looked at Misuzu with a disgusted expression.

What's wrong with liking handsome men?

Nothing wrong!

Besides, they were both single now, no burden at all.

"N-nonsense! He's my future son-in-law. I definitely need to know if he has other good qualities besides being handsome."

"Heh... you have to admit, Kaito's body is truly perfect."

"Indeed, I'm drooling."

"Hmph, your true colors are showing! Misuzu, stop pretending and confess honestly!"

"Huh? You dare to trap me!"

Misuzu turned around indignantly, but upon seeing Shodai's somewhat conservative swimsuit and figure, she became happy again.

"That's right, you guessed it. I am tempted. But your advantages aren't as big as mine~"

"Huh? Say that again... Misuzu!!"

Splash!

Enraged and embarrassed, Shodai splashed water directly at Misuzu, who didn't lag behind, splashing back even more water.

"Be careful, you still need me to teach you how to swim!"

"Damn it, forget this swimming lesson! I'll find a chance to learn from Kaito!"
