”Good morning, Mr. Rami, Kane. I hope I did not keep you guys waiting too long.” I greeted the grandfather and grandson duo as I made myself comfortable on the couch opposite theirs.

”Good morning, Master Wyatt. You came just in time. Your employee here was keeping us entertained.” Rami politely returned the greetings.

”Good morning, Master Wyatt. I have something to tell you. I hope I am not crossing the line.” Said Kane Kaga while glaring fiercely at Corey.

”Youʼre my fan, Kane. Please speak your mind without hesitation.” I had a pretty good hunch about what Kane was going to say.

”Thank you, Master Wyatt. I will have to ask you to fire this employee of yours. She was bad-mouthing you behind your back.” Yep, my hunch came through. Kane, you really are my fan.

”He is lying! I did not bad mouth you. Wyatt, you got to trust me.” Corey yelled in her defense.

”Miss, are you calling my grandson a liar?” Rami asked Corey with a ferocious gaze. If not for my presence, he would have bombarded Corey with his killing intent. With Coreyʼs power, I guess she would have withstood it.

”Shut up, old geezer. Wyatt, who are you going to trust? Your trusted employee or these two strangers.” Corey did not back down and stuck to her act.

”Them,” I said calmly.

”What?” Coreyʼs current reaction reminded me of the popular card hamster meme back on earth.

Hearing my answer, Rami nodded in satisfaction, and Kaneʼs admiration for me grew to a level of worship. As he said, ”Master Wyatt, thank you for believing in me. But rest assured, I recorded my conversation with her as evidence.”

”You did what? You recorded that without my consent. That is not admissible.” Corey tried to wiggle free of the accusation but ended up proving her guilt.

ʼYou Idiotʼ Corey Parkʼs words sounded in Coreyʼs mind.

”What the heck is going on here? Why are you guys being so noisy so early in the morning?” Anna walked out of the bedroom, wrapping the White sheets around her naked body.

”Big Sis Anna, these guys are bullying me.” Corey shamelessly seemed a refuge under Anna.

”Your highness Southern Emperor.” Rami immediately recognized Anna and hurriedly kneed staging his grandson along with him since they were in the presence of royalty.

”Who are you? Donʼt you know I donʼt like old customs? Get up before I make it so that you never get up.” Anna was free-minded and did not like the social division such as Commoner and royalty. Yes, she is proud of her family and its royal heritage, but she felt that the majesty of her family was not something to be used as a tool of fear and tyranny rather respect and admiration. Also, this exception of herʼs only applied to her people, that is, citizens of the Southern region. As for others, they better fear her and submit to her supremacy.

”Forgive my rudeness, your Highness. I am Rami Kaga, head of Blossom district medical card association, and this is my grandson Kane Kaga.

Your Highness, please forgive my insolence earlier. With old age, I keep forgetting things. Please be generous with this loyal subject of yours.” Rami hurriedly stood up with his grandson and begged for forgiveness. It felt weird to hear Rami address Anna so politely and respectfully. I felt like I was watching some medieval drama.

”You are forgiven. Make sure it wonʼt happen again” Anna ditched her usual careless attitude, which she has around me, and responded elegantly.

”Thank you for your generosity, your highness.” Rami hurriedly thanked Anna for forgiving him. But I couldnʼt tolerate this medieval carp any longer.

”Anna, why are you out here? Warped in my sheets, no less.” I inquired Anna with a frown.

”Wyatt, donʼt act like you donʼt know. After all, we slept together last night.” Anna replied with a hint of shyness.

”...” Old Rami looked at me as if looking at a great god. As did his grandson. Worship in Kaneʼs eyes for me had grown to absolute faith.

”You two-timing asshole. I knew it. You finally showed your true colors and betrayed big sis Susan. Two dumb focks, see what I told earlier was the truth. This, right here, is my proof.” Corey did not require an invitation to blow the whole thing out of proportion.

”Shut up, Corey. Anna, donʼt talk misleadingly. We did not sleep together. We drank together, and we passed out together. Speak clearly.” I yelled and hurriedly explained before people misinterpreted the whole thing through their imagination. But it was too little too late.

”Yes, that. Thatʼs what I meant to say. Wasnʼt I clear enough? Anyway, I am going to freshen up.” After detonating a bomb, Anna went on her merry way.

”Big sis, did you see. Did you hear what she said?” Corey wouldnʼt be Corey if she backed away with a warning.

”Shut up, Corey. This is not a game. Watch where you are pointing. Thatʼs the Southern Emperor, our protector. Sullying her is equal to sullying all of us, our ancestors, and I wonʼt tolerate it.” Susan gave Corey an earful.

”Little girl, I donʼt know what your relationship with her highness is. But be respectful. I believe your parents will also want that.” Rami did not like how Corey addressed Anna and voiced his dissatisfaction.

”Mr. Rami, thank you for your advice, but I think I can educate my sister.” Though Susan was angry with Corey, she did not think it was an outsiderʼs turn to discipline her sister.

”Sorry, Manager Susan. I was a bit emotional and spoke a little out of line.” Rami accepted his mistake.

”I can understand. Since your heart was in the right place.” Susan did not hold it against Rami and forgave him. After all, it was Coreyʼs fault, and if it were some other southerner in Ramiʼs place, they would have reacted the same or harsher.
