100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Eighty-Eight…

"So what is your plan after this? Will you go back to Nathan? How about Mia?" Mr. Hiroshi asked Jane about her next move.

"Pa, unfortunately, Mia is not my daughter. I had a son… but he died in my womb even before I gave birth to him." Jane revealed the truth to her father. "Vincent just used Mia to deceive me."

"Argh. I'm getting mad. That sly guy! How dare he use an innocent child with his scheme. It's unforgivable!" Mr. Hiroshi blurted out through his gritted teeth.

"He isn't worthy of you. Such an Asshole!"

Jane chuckled after seeing her father getting riled up. "Pa, calm down. We don't want your blood pressure to rise!" She cracked some joke to lighten his mood.

Mr. Hiroshi took a deep sigh. "I'm glad you decided to end things with him. Enough is enough. No more pretending. Don't associate yourself with that kind of guy.

If you want, I can mobilize our clan to destroy him!"

Jane shook her head. "No need, Pa. Let's focus on something else. By the way, have you decided whom you will pass on the leadership of Sawada Clan to? I think Tatsumi is the best choice to inherit the leadership position."

"Hmm. You are right. I think he will be a great leader. How about Hanabi? Don't you want her to lead our clan?" Mr. Hiroshi asked her opinion.

Jane smiled faintly. "I don't want to burden Hanabi with this great responsibility. I want her to live simply and find a guy with whom she can spend her life. I want her to marry someday and build her own family."

Mr. Hiroshi nodded in understanding. "Hmm. You always treat her as your sister. I'm glad you get along very well. Don't worry, I will support you on that.

I will make sure that she finds a good guy."

"Oh, by the way, Jane, speaking of Hanabi—someone from the Red Dragon Mafia has been asking about her whereabouts. I'm not sure if she's in trouble with them, but it's concerning. If you get a chance, could you ask her about it?"

Mr. Hiroshi was puzzled since Hanabi didn't usually get in trouble, unlike Tatsumi. Between the two, Tatsumi was the troublemaker in their clan.

Jane was a little bit surprised when she heard that. Hanabi never mentioned anything about the Red Dragon Mafia.

"Hmm. I think Hanabi can handle this matter. She can even fight the Dragon Lord." Jane chuckled as she recalled Hanabi's first encounter with Alexander before.

Mr. Hiroshi let out a soft chuckle. "I agree. She is like a Wonder Woman. She won't back down in any fight. Just like you."

"You think so highly of me, Pa."

"Sis! You are here!" Their conversation was suddenly interrupted by Abigail's voice.

Both Mr. Hiroshi and Jane looked behind them only to see Abigail and Dave together. She was supporting Dave as they made their way toward them.

Jane smiled knowingly as her eyes met Abigail's. She stood up to embrace her sister. Then she whispered playfully, "You look so pretty and inspired today my dear sister. Did something good happen between you and my brother-in-law?" She deliberately teased Abigail.

Abigail flushed at the memory of what had happened in their room earlier. She and Dave had shared an intimate moment.

'Why is my sister looking at me like that? Does she know something?' Abigail quickly shook off the thought, but suddenly, she gasped, covering her mouth.

'Did anyone overhear us? Was I too loud? But no one was around when I left the room…'

"Good to see you, brother-in-law. I guess you are recovering well." Jane greeted Dave, extending her hand for a handshake.

Dave took her hand and smiled back at her. He felt good knowing that Jane acknowledged him as her brother-in-law. There was a sense of belonging in this family. "Thanks, Sister-in-law."

Mr. Hiroshi cleared his throat to get their attention. "Alright, young ones, come over here," he said with a playful grin. "I'll step away for a bit and grab some snacks. You all go ahead and catch up. I know you've got plenty to talk about."

Mr. Hiroshi chose to leave, giving them space to bond and talk with each other.

"Well, I guess our father is right. We have a lot to talk about," Jane said with a smile, gesturing toward the bench. "Shall we?"

Dave and Abigail sat down next to her. "So how's your preparation for your wedding? Is everything set?"

Abigail and Dave gave her a questioning gaze. Abigail was the one who answered her query. "Sis, I thought you were going to marry first. We reschedule our wedding date next year. Besides, Dave still needs to recuperate."

Jane scratched her face and apologized to them. "Oh, I'm sorry. Because of me, you postponed your wedding this year. But you don't have to do that anymore. You can marry as soon as possible, whenever you want."

"Sis, you are very supportive on our relationship. I'm so grateful." Abigail embraced Jane, giving her a peck on her cheek.

Jane giggled softly. "Of course. Your happiness is my happiness. Besides, Dave is the right guy for you. I can see how much he loves you. I know he will take care of you.

Both of you have gone through a lot since your childhood."

Dave felt so flattered because of Jane's compliment. He felt so glad that she could see his sincerity toward Abigail.

"Dave, can you promise me to protect my sister? I will leave her in your care. Don't you ever make her cry. Understand?"

Dave met her gaze without hesitation, his hand rising in a gesture of oath. "I swear. I'll be a good husband for her. Rest assured that I won't make her sad or cry. I'll be someone she can always rely on, no matter what life throws at us. I'll stick by her through thick and thin, for better or worse."

"Good. I'm glad to know she has you. I feel reassured now." Jane giving him a nod of approval. "Why do I feel like you are already telling us your wedding vow." She cracked some jokes again.

Both Dave and Abigail laughed at her last remarks.

"Sis, you sound like our father." Abigail teased her sister.

Jane just gave her a meaningful smile. "Come closer. I wanna hug you."

The two sisters held each other in a long embrace, as if making up for all the lost time while Dave watched them silently. He felt so happy to see Abigail together with her long lost sister, Jane.

A soft smile tugged at his lips as he witnessed the depth of their bond. There was something so pure, so unbreakable, in the way the two sisters clung to each other. He understood how much this moment meant to them. The love between the sisters was evident.

"I couldn't ask for more, Sis. I have Dave and I have you… and our father. All I want now is for you to be happy like me… Be with the guy you love. I hope you and Nathan will finally decide to be together as well."

Jane smiled at the mention of Nathan's name, though a flicker of uncertainty clouded her eyes.
