Alistair lowered his forehead until it rested against Anna Komiya's, gripping the finger she had poked into his waistband and speaking playfully. We were just talking business, and after just two sentences, your actions are already getting frisky.
"Well, I did everything you asked, and the position I planned for you is excellent. Plus, having served as Treasurer in the Student Council is great for your resume; you can list it when applying for university or looking for a job. So, what's wrong with giving me a little something in return~"
Anna Komiya exerted a little force, and upon realizing she couldn't break free from Alistair's grip, she looked at him with a slight hint of resentment.
"I have one more question. You mentioned I could freely cut the activity funds of clubs with fewer than ten members. What about that Galgame Club? I heard the president of that club has some connections."
The hand Alistair used to grip Anna Komiya's wrist gently rubbed her fair, smooth skin, causing a ticklish sensation that made her instinctively twist her hand. However, when she heard Alistair mention that specific club, her expression suddenly turned serious.
"Alistair-kun, regarding the Galgame Club, it's really best if you don't mess with them. What you heard wasn't a rumor; it's true. Her mother is one of Sakura Public Academy's high-level executives, or rather, one of the investors, holding a full one-fifth stake. Don't underestimate that percentage; there are fifteen investors in total. Her mother holding one-fifth shows how much influence she wields.
"Actually, that alone wouldn't force everyone to obey her, but the crucial point is that her mother is completely doting. So everyone is afraid her mother will assume her daughter is being bullied and use that as an excuse to get them fired. And that's not just talk; several people have already been forced to withdraw from school after ridiculing her, though they were slackers to begin with."
Seeing Anna Komiya's serious eyes, Alistair's expression showed a trace of surprise. He truly hadn't expected the girl he had casually inquired about before to be so formidable. Her background was powerful. Although he hadn't planned to interfere, Alistair secretly decided to be careful not to disrupt that club's affairs. Alistair didn't want to inexplicably make an enemy of someone at the level of a Board Director.
Dee-doo-doo-dee~ Dee-doo-doo-dee~
A string of phone rings sounded, interrupting Alistair's thoughts and breaking the atmosphere between the two.
"Your phone is ringing."
Alistair looked toward Anna Komiya's pants pocket. The ringtone clearly wasn't his, and the sound was coming from Anna Komiya's right pocket.
"Huh? Oh, oh, oh, let me check."
Anna Komiya quickly took her phone out of her pocket. It was a holiday, and she had already told her friends she was taking a rest day and wouldn't be going out. She guessed the call was likely from Yūta Tōmoto, her public boyfriend and the Student Council President.
"President Yūta, is something the matter? You should rest today. If there's anything important, we can deal with it when we go back to school."
Anna Komiya's tone was polite and courteous. They sounded less like a couple and more like an extremely professional superior-subordinate pair, judging by those few sentences.
"Anna, this is a private conversation. Don't be so formal. Are you perhaps talking to your mother right now?"
President Yūta Tōmoto first complained to Anna Komiya, then asked somewhat suspiciously. If her mother was there, it would indeed be inconvenient to chat properly, as they weren't planning to tell their parents yet. They had agreed to come clean and get engaged once they reached university.
"No, I'm not. It's just that I plan to rest well today and spend time with my sister. I rarely get a chance to properly bond with her, so I planned to catch up this weekend... Eek~"
Anna Komiya's tone softened, no longer so polite or cold. She was using her sister as an excuse to stay home, as Yūta Tōmoto was undoubtedly calling to ask her out on a date. But Alistair was right there! How could she ditch a winter melon for a banana?
So, just as Anna Komiya was giving an excuse to quickly cut off Yūta Tōmoto's intent, she suddenly felt a large, warm hand cup her ample, nectarous buttocks. She let out an instinctive gasp.
"What is it?! Anna? Is something wrong?"
President Yūta Tōmoto, on the other end of the phone, heard his lover's gasp. His mind instantly blanked, and a rush of concerned words came out, his tone full of tension and worry. He wanted to rush over to Anna Komiya's place, but then he remembered Anna Komiya was home and should be fine. He stopped his movement, waiting for Anna Komiya's reply.
"Ah, no, nothing. A cockroach just suddenly emerged from under the closet and startled me, that's all. I'm sorry if I worried you."
Anna Komiya's apologetic voice came through the phone, allowing Yūta Tōmoto to relax. He then felt a little confused. He had seen Anna Komiya's room many times; they had video-chatted frequently. He knew how tidy Anna Komiya's room was. Why would there be a cockroach?
"Maybe you missed some corners when you were cleaning the room, which allowed the cockroach to hide there." Yūta Tōmoto pondered for a moment, then speculated to Anna Komiya over the phone.
"Yes, maybe~ Perhaps I was careless in some spots when I cleaned the room, giving those awful bugs a chance to hide in the room~ Nnngh~ I need to be more~ attentive when cleaning my room later~"
Anna Komiya quickly agreed, then followed up on his suggestion. However, her tone gained a seductive allure. As she spoke, Anna Komiya glared at Alistair, who was misbehaving behind her, trying her best to maintain a normal tone when answering.
Alistair raised an eyebrow, flashed a wicked smile, and extended his other hand. He reached under Anna Komiya's armpit and aimed for the two massive fruits on her chest.
"Mmh-hmm~"
Alistair's assault on her frontal fruits was precise. Through the clothing, he immediately pinched the area where her tender cherries were, causing Anna Komiya to let out an irresistible moan, which carried over the phone.
"What's wrong? Anna, your voice sounds a little strange. Are you sick?" Concern poured from Yūta Tōmoto's voice in her ear, but Anna Komiya couldn't answer. She quickly covered her mouth, trying to stop any further sound from passing through.
