Stealing Spree

Chapter 756 - Otohas Status



“Ruki… I heard you’re worried.”

Using a slightly teasing tone, Otoha focused the camera on her. Although she’s not wearing her thinly applied makeup, her natural face was still too gorgeous to look at. Add to that, her glossy lips and a slight tint of red shrouding her face increased her charm points.

From just how much I was longing for her, I already had the urge to kiss the screen. But that’s embarrassing, isn’t it? I’ll be with her soon… Gonna have to endure for now.

Akane, Mizuki, Hiyori and Aika couldn’t be seen on the screen. They’re being considerate, most likely.

As for Hitomi, she’s silently sitting behind Otoha.

At the moment they’re inside her room, sitting around a rather classy low table. It’s exquisitely carved from some type of expensive wood. As for how expensive, I had no idea. My knowledge hadn’t encompassed that kind of industry yet.

Although it was night when I sneaked into her room back then, I could still vividly remember its interior. It was at least double the size of our own bedroom.

Even though there were six of them inside, seven if even Suzuki-san was allowed inside, it’s still too spacious that all of them could roll around her carpeted floor without entangling with each other or even hitting her bed and the other pieces of furniture inside.

There should’ve been a PC she could use but according to Hitomi last week, it was also taken away. Ah, wrong. Only her internet connection was taken away ever since her mother forbade her from going out.

Otoha was also interrogated by her mother. Nonetheless, even though she admitted to having been in a relationship, she refused to tell who. Instead, she insisted on introducing me soon.

She omitted her plan to only introduce me to her grandfather. Meeting her parents wasn’t in our plan yet. At least, not at the moment.

Considering she still hadn’t been released from being grounded, her grandfather most likely hadn’t been discharged yet.

Hitomi told me last week that he should be out yesterday… Something must’ve happened.

“I was. But not anymore… I finally see you, after all. How are you? Have you been eating properly?”

“Silly worrywart, do I look starved?” Otoha stood up and showcased her mesmerizing face before sliding down to her belly. The girl nonchalantly lifted her dress – it’s a one-piece so she had to start at the skirt – just to show me her flat navel and her eye-catching curves. Well, I also got a glimpse of her silk panties and her slender thighs.

I guess I could take that as an added service.

However, an idea came to my mind… To tease the girl for a bit. I narrowed my eyes as if I was intently observing her figure. And right after the camera returned to her face that’s wearing a rather confident expression to see how I would respond, I said in a serious tone. “Not in the slightest, yes. But Otoha, why does it seem like you have gained a bit.”

As soon as I said that, shocked gasps were simultaneously heard from the other line. The other girls with her also reacted. The two with me also did the same after all.

I felt Nao pinching my sides while Miwa-nee almost threw the pillow next to her. As for Minoru, the boy’s busy watching TV again.

Sure enough, Otoha got worked up almost instantly. Her ears reddened as she puffed out her cheeks, feeling slightly wronged. “Y-you! I haven’t! I still have the same figure as before!”

I maintained my neutral face as I put a hand below my chin, acting like I was contemplating seriously, “Really? Let’s see. Can you show me again? I need to double-check.”

“Then see for yourself!” A little agitated, Otoha handed the phone back to Akane as she stood up once more.

With her whole figure caught on the screen, the girl clutched her dress on the sides before stretching it to her back, making the dress stick close to her body.

Mhm… She really has a sexy figure. Among my girls, she’s on the thin side and she’s not that blessed on the front. Nonetheless, I love everything about her.

My eyes were blessed by this sight…

“Mhm… I’m not convinced…” I started. Otoha fumed from her nose as she grabbed the phone back. However, she softened up upon hearing the continuation. “…I think I will need to hug and carry my Otoha to be sure. When can I do that?” 𝑜𝘷.𝘰𝑔

A smile quickly bloomed from her lips as she sat back down, her face filled with embarrassment.

“… This guy. Learn to throttle down that tongue. You’re making me angry on purpose. Just say you want to hug me…”

I put on a dumbfounded expression as if I was shocked that I got my plan seen through by her.

It’s an obvious act, of course, which made the girl burst out giggling.

“Oh. You got me, Otoha. Good job!” I raised my thumb to her which made her giggle while I heard whispers of ‘idiot’ and similar words being thrown at me by the girls hearing and watching our exchange.

If they’re all in front of me, they would surely shoot me an incredulous look while shaking their heads.

Apart from that, I heard Mizuki and Akane commenting about it. Something along the lines of, “Although that’s amusing, I’ll give Ruki 5 out of 10.” And “You shouldn’t tease a girl about her weight. That’s a big no, idiot husband.”

On my side, Nao and Miwa-nee who were eavesdropping also agreed.

Ignoring those remarks, I continued to converse with Otoha. Well, there’s no way to defend myself. I’m aware of what I was doing.

“Yes… I want to hug and snuggle with you. I miss you a lot, you know. It’s been a hellish three days without hearing about your status.”

Otoha puffed her cheeks again. “As if it’s hellish. You have the others.”

“True. But like you said. I’m a worrywart. Look, my hair might turn white from thinking about how I can contact you.”

Upon hearing that, the girl appeared moved by it. And gradually, our conversation veered away from teasing each other. The mood was already lightened enough.

In time, I also checked on Hitomi who answered briefly. The woman was acting like her usual self, only focused on her job.

However, with Akane and the others there who were already aware of the status of our relationship, they managed to make her say what was on her mind.

Well, she’s not that comfortable with that yet. Still, seeing the confident Hitomi breaking off from her character was a lovely scene in itself.

The video call lasted for less than an hour. We had to cut it short after confirming that Akane and the others were going to eat there. Alongside Otoha.

Besides, the dinner Miwa-nee cooked would also get cold or Minoru might fall asleep before eating.

Anyway, the purpose of that call was achieved. I got to check on the two who I was worried about as well as hear about what’s going to happen.

Otoha told me that her grandfather purposely delayed his discharge in the hospital. It’s to catch those hidden leeches of the family… As to what she meant from that, I could only put out a guess.

It probably pertained to those attached to their family with ill intentions or if not ill, those who would like to use their name.

Honestly, I had no intention to even meddle with Noble House’s affairs but it’s inevitable if I really wanted to marry Otoha in the future.. That’s why I accepted Otoha and Mizuki’s suggestion to be educated.
