Despite Old Mrs. Hokama's wish and effort, the rumors still reached Heisuke and Hisaki, catching them off guard.
But, the said rumors followed by how the Hokama family's matriarch brought along her entourage to confront Mrs. Sachiko who started the rumor.
The one who told the lovebirds was Yoichi, one of Heisuke's close colleague-turned-friends at the warehouse. His family home was near Mrs. Sachiko's place.
Yoichi's mother witnessed the one-sided confrontation and told him.
"The rumor was put down before it spread far. Lucky~ If not, I can't imagine what will people think. They like to exaggerate it."
Heisuke and Hisaki agreed with Yoichi's words. They didn't care about such a thing. In their previous life, they had faced much worse.
But, this rumor would undoubtedly smear the Hokama and Chisaka's family names. This was something intolerable to Heisuke and Hisaki.
