After arriving to the apartment Dakota let Kannon rest in her room while she went to the living room to finish work.

Kannon was surpised that all of her stuffs in her apartment as neatly placed in her new room.

[What sorcery is this?]

Already having a new phone makes her very delighted yet disappointed at her lost files in her old phone, Kannon immediately went to message Indigo using an app, she was still kind of worried about her and contemplating about how to explain the contract she was with Dakota.

Dakota on the other hand changed her clothes and was ready to go.

"Kannon I'll go somewhere" she knocked on her door, letting her know.

"Safe drive!" Kannon replied hastily, it was obvious she was occupied doing something.

Dakota then went towards her car and drove to the company. It was a smooth drive, the city looked completely different from the day as it is from the night. The city lights is one of the must see view when visiting Sector Cinq, as the most progressive and richest sector of course the city had advanced infrastructures and countless architectural buildings that are really fun to see.

"Pretty lady did I make you wait for too long?" Dakota slowed down her car as she stopped in front of Yui who was standing in front of the company building and talked to her as she brought her car window down.

Her tone was playful and easy going that it made Yui chuckle, she is completely different when she is handling work and give people orders.

"My driver was a little late" Yui played along although she just got in here not long ago.

"Apologies" Dakota walked out of her car and opened the door for Yui.

Yui who was looking as lovely as always, dressed herself up quite nicely for the night. She was beautiful as always as it was hard for people's eyes to take off her.

"And where are we heading?" Yui asked, it was evident to see the sparkle of excitment in her eyes.

"To a place but we have to stop by for a moment a little later" Dakota smiled letting out the mysteriousness to overwhelm Yui.

"This is??" Yui then raised her brow as she questioned the place Dakota decided to stop by.

It was a convinience store.

"What type of ice cream do you like?" Dakota asked as she opened the ice cream refrigerator.

"Uhhhh...strawberry?" Yui replied while gazing at the store shelves.

She did not quite expect this.

"They also sell strawberry sandwhich you like some?" Dakota pointed at the sandwiches.

"Ok"

"Look mom! A very pretty lady!" suddenly a kid spoke out as she pointed at Yui.

Startled at the remark, Yui just smiled awkwardly to the kid.

"Sorry about that" the mother of the child immediately spoke out.

"Oh are you a couple?" the mother suddenly asked implying to Dakota who was busy choosing stuffs.

"Well....you could say that" Yui brushed her hair behind her ear as she shyly responded.

"You suit each other well" the mother complimented and walked away with her child.

[A couple huh?]

Yui was still hooked on that thought.

"Yui what's the matter?" Dakota asked as Yui bumped into her as she turned around to face her.

"Easy there" Dakota held Yui's wrist preventing her to fall.

"You wore heels again?"

Dakota raised her brow as she stared at Yui's feet and shifted her gaze back at her.

"I..I can't help it" Yui fidgeted her fingers, she wanted to lool good in front of Dakota but it seems to brought trouble again.

"Let's just choose some food and head to the place" Dakota insisted.

They drove to a nearby beach, Yui remember going there with her friends and have fun. But instead of heading there straight Dakota took another route which lead to a secretive place.

It immediately lead to a private beach house, it was beautiful that could easily take one's breath away.

The strong cold wind blew past Yui as she stood there, she opened her arms and let it embraced her. Her long blonde hair danced with the wind as she enjoyed the cool wind.

"Glad you like it" Dakota was holding to the grocery plastic as both of them went inside the house.

"Careful" Dakota held Yui's hand as she guided her to the observatory room.

"Wow" Yui muttered as she walked inside the spacious observatory room.

There was a comfortable couch, a table, loads of shelves filled with books, and a huge telescope for star gazing.

Surprised as the dome of the observatory opened and revealed the beautiful scenery in front of them, the view of the ocean and just a distance they could see the city's buildings lit up with its lights.

"It's probably not the dinner you expect right? But I hope it did not disappoint you" Dakota handed Yui a blanket to protect her from the cold wind.

"I love it" Yui replied feeling her heart bursting with warmth.

"And we have these" Dakota chuckled as she opened the spicy octopus and chicken wings they bought.

She knew Yui, as a young lady of a rich family, did not able to experience these types of simplicity and enjoy in her life and Dakota just wanted her to taste these kinds of enjoyment.

"I only see these foods in dramas, I really badly wanted to taste them but my parents won't allow me...but now I can" there was innocence in her words and smile that really broke Dakota's heart.

In the manga, Yui was raised strictly by her parents especially her mother that was so obsessed with controlling her diet. That Yui was banned from eating many foods and if possible her mother will just keep feeding her vegetables all her life.

Gaining weight was big no for her mother too, there was a scene in the manga showed Yui struggled with eating disorder that everything she ate she would throw up. The orginal villainess even recorded Yui throwing up and posted it online while spreading false claims of Yui as pregnant, Desmund was quick to react to the situation but that doesn't stop Yui's mother from beating her up and her father dragging her to the hospital to run tests.

"You know, you don't have to be hard on yourself. You are strong Yui but you are weak when confronting with your parents, you have to stand up to them or else you will suffer and not make any decisions for yourself" Dakota spoke up as she stared at Yui timidly eating.

It was so obvious she was trying to surpress her appetite.

"How did you know about it?" Yui was caught off guard towards Dakota suddenly bringing that up.

"As a businessman I learn to read people. Your mother was infamous for being a complete controling towards the people under her and your father was a perfectionist, it was obvious they strive for perfect children and you being an omega makes them harder towards you, that is why also you are hard to yourself" Dakota patiently spoke.

"If I do contradict them, I'll be facing consequences you know" Yui replied, her eyes showed sadness.

"You are working as an executive assistant of mine, if they kick you out of their house I'll just raise your monthly salary as twice as they make yearly" Dakota smirked seemingly amused.

"Well they kind of treated me better these days because of that....but don't forget your words" Yui then responded as she felt better hearing Dakota's consolation.

She then ate a whole big octopus as she was not trying to supress her appetite anymore, which makes Dakota smile.
