Tora shakes his head chuckling. "I'm afraid my partner has something to say."
"What?"
Tora makes his way over to Misaki. "She said let's have a chat right?"
"So sit," Misaki finishes it off for him.
Tora smirks. "I think duke, this is when you get scared."
Richard, Gerald and Patricia glares at Tora. How could he betray them? After all the deals they've did together. He's going to regret this.
"Tora. What the hell are you doing?" Aiko says since the others weren't saying anything. Why is he with Misaki of all people.
"Patience Aiko. And I don't think you should try messing with me," He growls at the ignorant rich girl.
"Your father-"
"My father isn't here so just listen to what Misaki, MY PARTNER has to say."
He shuts her up.
"Now," Misaki begins glaring at the four people she hates more than anything. "Which one of you had the bright idea to attack Ichigo?"
Richard scoffs. "All this for that poor brat?"
"The poor must stick together grandfather," Gerald slyly remarks.
Misaki chuckles standing up. "You've done it this time Richard. Ah! I bet this was Patricia's idea though. She's always playing these games right?"
"Whatever," Patricia growls at the low life in front of her as she likes to call Misaki.
"I suggest I owe you all and explanation. Tora and I have been partners for a while now but don't worry we are not attacking you right now. This is all about me and the four of you concerning Ichigo," Misaki explains to calm their nerves.
Tora takes a seat. "I only came to enjoy the show."
He throws a bat to Misaki who catches it.
"You really messed up this time huh?" Misaki says swinging around the bat.
"So what if something happened to the kid huh. We don't care," Richard answers honestly.
Misaki shakes her head sadly. She picks up a vase. "You don't care huh?"
She smashes the vase with the bat.
"Are you stupide that cost near a hundred grand," Gerald yells furious.
"Oh really then this one must be more expensive," She tells them picking up a bigger vase and smashing it.
"What are you doing?" Aiko questions gritting her teeth in anger.
"That kid you messed with costs more than these stupid vase cost to me and believe me you just crossed the line hurting him."
Misaki makes her way over to a now silent Richard. She stops right in front of him.
"You wanna play dirty? So can I?" She whispers for all to hear. "I show you who you're messing with you got that? Forget about that girl in the past. I'm you're worst nightmare now."
Misaki smiles and evens out his jacket. He shrugs her off.
"You won't get away with this I'll sue you an-"
"Sue me? What a joke huh Tora?" Misaki chuckles looking over at her partner.
"Dear Richard. All those top notch law firms are under her investment now," Tora explains with a smirk.
"Go ahead and sue me. I'll win."
"You...I can't wait to end you and Tora you will regret moving from the winning side," Gerald warns both of them.
"I think I'm on the winning side. You just don't see it."
"This isn't fun at all. The Walker family is making it too easy. Where's the fight in you guys," Misaki wonders out loud. Who knew it would be this easy to get to them.
"This isn't the end Ayuzawa," Aiko reminds Misaki.
"You're right for once. It's the beginning of your end."
Misaki signals to Tora that she's ready to leave and waves goodbye and Richard and the others. She leaves to go get in her car with Tora. Patricia runs after them before they can enter the car.
"Get in the car first Tora."
Misaki waits till the both of them are alone.
"You have some nerve. Yes it was my idea. You think you're tough now ha," Patricia laughs wickedly. "You couldn't even protect your own baby."
Misaki clenches her fists remembering the past.
Someone please help me! Please my baby!
It could've been avoided if it wasn't for Patricia.
"I can't wait to show everyone what a monster you are," Misaki admits.
"But you won't unless you want to hurt Takumi," Patricia smirks. She still has Takumi by her side. After all she is his mother. "Goodbye Ayuzawa."
Misaki gets in her car with Tora. He rests his hand on hers noticing her change in mood.
"Are you ok?"
"Fine. Just fine," She answers looking out the car window.
The next day…
Misaki arrives at the hotel in China for the business meeting. Kou came along with her since he's her assistant and she can trust him to handle any issues that may arise.
They already went to their rooms and got diner since they arrived late in the afternoon. Misaki decides to head to bed.
"Ok but remember you have a meeting with the president of Xia industries tomorrow in the morning," Kou informs her looking through Misaki's schedule.
"Hmm.."
"After that you'll have a dress fit for the business meetings since they'll be a diner afterwards. You're free between twelve pm to three pm tomorrow. And another thi-"
Misaki stops him. "Please tell me this last one is important. It all sounds boring."
"Yes it is important."
"What is it?" Misaki questions him raising her eyebrow.
"Aiko will be here tomorrow in place of her father," He tells her waiting for her think through tomorrow's events.
"It doesn't matter if she's here are not. I will carry on…." Misaki trails off when she spots someone in the hotel. Kou follows her gaze and pauses. "Takumi?"
Takumi turns to her direction at the sound of his name. "Misaki? What are you doing here?"
"The business meeting tomorrow. I guess you're here for that too," Misaki answers looking away from him slightly. She hasn't talk to him since she was at his apartment.
Takumi goes to say something but then his eyes meet with Kou's. "Can we talk in private? Maybe my room?"
Misaki opens her mouth to answer but Kou beats her to saying something.
"Of course she can't come to your room?" Kou glares at Takumi and Misaki wonders what for.
Takumi shifts his eyes from Kou to Misaki. "Misaki will you join me?"
"Uh.."
"Misaki no," Kou pleads with her.
Misaki looks between them both trying to make a decision.
"Fine. If you make up your mind I'll be in my room 504," Takumi tells her agitated that Kou is getting in his way.
"Kou why did you say that?" Misaki asks Kou once Takumi is gone.
"Misaki don't go to him. Let's go to my room and maybe watch tv or something ok?"
Misaki sighs running her hand through her hair. "Kou listen-"
"Ok. Just choose Misaki. I'll be in my room."
Misaki watches as Kou disappears. Why is he acting this way? She hopes this isn't about that little crush he used to have on her. They talked about that.
She waits five minutes to cool off then heads up trying to decide what to do. Misaki gets into an elevator and presses a floor number. The elevator stops and she gets out walking down the corridor stopping in front a room.
Meanwhile, Takumi and Kou sits in their rooms waiting for Misaki to show up. There is a knock at one door.
One of them gets up to answer the knock and opens their door.
"Misaki!"
