"Hmm… I don't know. I'm fine with anywhere." Lilica replied, hugging him.
"I think that we should put it on hold first though. With the enemy still active, we'll have to always be cautious. Not only that, me being pregnant will make things so much more difficult to do. Let's wait until the twins are born." Lilica continued.
"Okay. I'll be able to research for more places in the meantime too." Kazuya said as he smiled at her dotingly.
At the mention of the twins, Kazuya couldn't help but smile happily. Just a few month more and I'll be a father!
"Oh, right. Mother told me to find some toys from the human world for our babies. She said that her grandchildren needs to play the best toys." Kazuya said as he recalled his conversation with his mother before they departed for the human realm.
"Okay. I've actually already searched for some of them. I'll let you take a look." Lilica replied as she walked over to the box on her new desk to find her phone. However, her bag wasn't there.
"I must've left my bag in the department office. I'll go get it back." Lilica said as she walked towards the door.
"I'll go with you." Kazuya smiled as he held her hand.
"Hey, we're still in the company! No holding hands!" Lilica pouted cutely. They weren't teenagers anymore and holding hands in front of others was very embarrassing!

"It's fine. I'm the CEO here. No one can criticize me." Kazuya replied cheekily as he tightened his grip on her hand.
"Geez. I'll let you hold my hand until the office entrance then." Lilica said in a helpless tone.
The couple happily walked towards the secretary department, unknown of the new rumors that were forming. They soon reached the office and as Lilica waited for the automatic doors to open, she was met with curious gazes and frowns.
"?" Lilica was confused once again. Didn't she already cleared the misunderstanding?
"Lilica! I need to talk t-" Suzuna couldn't finish her sentence as she realized that Lilica wasn't alone. The formidable CEO was standing right behind her!
"Talk about what?" Lilica asked gently with a smile.
However, as soon as she flashed her smile, everyone looked at her with eyes filled with sarcasm.
"Well…" Suzuna didn't know if she should tell Lilica about the new rumors. She glanced uncomfortably at Kazuya.
However, Kazuya just stared right back at her, threatening her to speak with his cold stare.
"I-I'll speak the truth! There has been some rumors that Lilica seduced you, destroying your happy marriage, CEO!" Suzuna stuttered as she felt intimidated by his stare, unconsciously telling him instead of Lilica.
Kazuya's face darkened almost instantly. Who dared to insult my woman?! Don't think that I don't dare fire everyone for insulting my wife!
"Huh?" Lilica was even more puzzled. Destroying a marriage? But Kazuya wasn't married before. What did she mean then?
However, Lilica's clueless expression made some of the girls in the office feel irritated. She was just a vixen! She obviously know that he was married since she had served the madam before! What use is it feigning innocence right now?
"Don't pretend! We all know that you seduced our CEO to get to your position! You can't fool us with your obvious facade! Mr. Kazuki was married to Mrs. Lilienne way before you even entered his life! How dare you destroy his marriage." One of the girls couldn't take it anymore and felt like she had to get justice for her dear CEO.
When Lilica heard Kazuki's name, she finally remembered that Kazuya was disguising as his brother! Was this why they thought that she had torn a perfectly happy couple apart?
"That was-" Lilica was about to explain but the girl interrupted her.
"Don't give me excuses! Our company don't need someone like you! You're fired!" The girl shouted emotionally, not taking notice of Kazuya's expression at all.
"..." the whole room became silent. Lilica didn't know how she should answer since it would be complicated to explain he truth to everyone. She then glanced at Kazuya, seeking for help. However, Kazuya's face was so dark one could feel his boiling anger.
"Who are you to fire my wife?" Kazuya spoke up, his voice as cold as ice, disrupting the silence.
