"She didn't accept it?"
A voice so cold echoed in the private room of a university department. The man's brows almost twisted as he intently listened to the caller at the end of the line. His expression didn't look so good.
"...Alright, got it. Just keep a close watch on her."
Before waiting for the person to reply, Jun ended the call. He threw the phone across the large working desk. The sleek smartphone almost fell from the edge of the wooden surface.
Jun rubbed his face a few times, trying to ease his complicated mood. He felt so uneasy all over when he heard the person telling him how Himari didn't cast another look at the 99 roses he sent to her.
Instead of appreciating them, she distributed the rose stalks of the huge bouquet to the other female teachers.
"Did that man who send the flowers to her?" Jun whispered to himself. His voice was barely audible inside this room.
