After returning home from the Market Fair, Christmas passed, and the New Year came and went without issue.
Before long, January 3rd arrived, and with it followed the time for the politician's daughter's classy tenth birthday party.
Spiffed up in my identity as Leander Herington, I sat in a limousine alongside Sana and Sona, Emir, Selina and Minami. The time was nearing five in the afternoon.
Because the twins and Emir were both officially registered as Leander Herington's children and documented as such in government records, it was expected of me to bring them to events such as this one.
Sophie Asanami had no relation to Leander Herington, so she was naturally not present.
As for Selina, she was already officially adopted by Minami. Due to the Absolute Contract, however, she was now able to attend events like these with a guarantee of safety, unlike previously.
