Here is a new chapter. Hope you like it.


Kyoya threw the stack of documents on his desk. She had ignored him for two years, and no matter what he did, he didn't manage to snap her back into reality. He had had enough. He didn't want to be in such an emotionally abusive marriage with her anymore, where he had no idea what he did wrong to make her so distant. He had felt dead for two years and when he met Yuki, his life finally sparked alive.

What was he even thinking trying to reason with her? Something was obviously wrong with Haruhi, and he had tried his best already. Most people would have divorce her far sooner. He knew his father wouldn't like the idea and would probably try to stop him, but he wasn't about to let this madness continue. He finally got the courage to put Haruhi away from him. He didn't want that relationship back. He didn't want it.

He had begged for her attention and affection for so long like a starved child. He had put aside his pride and self-respect, trying to gain her love, and she always pushed him away. She always made it clear she felt nothing for him.

Why was he still trying like a fool? Why was he still doubting that this was the right way? He was way too selfish and foolish to think that he could ever change her mind and have her fall in love with him too. Was he even being fair to Yuki?

He sighed again and pinched the bridge of his nose in annoyance.

The door to his study slowly was opened and someone walked in. Kyoya turned and saw the nanny standing there. What was this girl wanting? Did she do something stupid again?

"Kyoya-sama?" she approached him cautiously and lowered her head when he stared back at her.

"Fumi-san?" Kyoya crossed his arms and leaned against his desk. "Did something happen with Riichi?"

She looked up and blushed. "No," she said with a smile. "He is asleep now."

Kyoya didn't say anything and continued to look at the girl, waiting for her to give him an explanation why she entered his study. She looked around awkwardly and clenched the hems of her shirt.

"I have heard your conversation with Haruhi-sama," she said with a smile. "And I am so happy, Kyoya-sama. I was waiting for so long and finally, you will be free."

Kyoya blinked, trying to process what the girl said. What was she talking about?

"You deserve so much more, than Haruhi-sama can give you," Fumi mumbled, coming closer to him. "She doesn't love you and doesn't ever look at you the way you deserve to be looked."

"Wha―" Kyoya was interrupted by the girl's sudden action, shocking him so much, that for a moment he didn't realize what was going on. Fumi wrapped her hands around his neck and pulled him down.

Kyoya grabbed her arm and pushed her away. "What are you doing?" he barked angrily.

"I love you, Kyoya-sama," she said innocently and blushed. "And I love Riichi, and I want the three of us to live together. Like a real family"

"You are crossing the line," he said harshly. "Your behavior is extremely inappropriate."

This girl was out of her mind. How could Haruhi hire someone like that to take care of their son? Why wasn't she looking after him if she was free? He was already sick and tired of everything, and his determination to leave Haruhi and start a normal life became even more firm.

"Get out of my study," he told the girl. "And you are fired. I have warned you once."

"But Kyoya-sama," she stammered. "I thought, I thought you..."

She lunged at him and wrapped her hands around his body, and before he could react, she pressed her lips against his. It felt like someone had poured liquid fire on his head. He tried to push her away, grabbing her waist and arm. But she clung close to him and resisted the movement.

"I can't believe this," Haruhi's voice and him getting rid of the girl's clingy arms were almost simultaneous. "I didn't know you are such a depraved man. I understand you having affairs with that girl Yuki, but Fumi is still a kid. Are you out of your mind? Don't you have any decency?"

Kyoya sighed. This couldn't be any worse, could it? The girl wasn't looking at Haruhi and was staring at the wall, trying to move away from everything as much as she could.

"Did he make you, Fumi-san?" Haruhi suddenly asked, turning her attention to the girl. "You can tell me everything without being scared. I won't allow him to grope you."

"You think I was groping her?" Kyoya laughed in disbelief. "Who do you think I am?"

"Who you are?" Haruhi glared at him. "I don't even know if I ever knew you. How could you take advantage of this poor girl?"

"I am sorry," Fumi squeaked and ran out of the room.

"Don't think you are allowed to do whatever you want," Haruhi said quickly, biting her lip. Her body was shaking. "And here I thought, I could have a conversation with you. But you seem too busy manhandling our workers. I can't believe you would do something like that. How am I going even to face my father after this. They trusted me with Fumi."

"I don't know," Kyoya said irritated. "But she is fired. I don't want that thing around my son."

"That thing?" Haruhi gasped.

"What should I call a young girl behaving like her," he huffed. "I am trying my best not to lose my patience, and I don't need you lecture me. Please, leave. I am appalled that you hired someone like her to take care of Riichi."

"You are disgusting," Haruhi told him and walked out. She couldn't keep the tears anymore. She rushed to the first bathroom and started to cry.

How could she be so wrong about him?

She didn't want to hear anything anymore. The sooner they divorce, the better would be for her.
