Makiko stood in the living room with a hard guqin case in hand and a strange man behind her. She looked at the Yamazaki family with unfounded superiority. She seemed to be looking down at the four people as if they were dirt beneath her foot.
Her evil gaze pierced Akira, who was tapping on her phone, with a meaningful expression. It spoke of a secret untold and a desire to see her niece fall from grace.
"Hello, Aunt," Akira said evenly without looking up at Makiko.
Makiko gritted her teeth in annoyance at the insolence.
'We will see how long you can remain calm!' She thought to herself.
Both Daiki and Sayaka also greeted her, but they did not show respect and enthusiasm towards her. Makiko felt angry at the blatant disregard. She was sure Akira influenced them.
