For Our Happier Path

After voicing to bring their marriage forward, Heisuke and Hisaki continued to share one more piece of good news with their parents.

It was about Heisuke being chosen to be Mr. Mayeda's close assistant.

"Why don't you accept it? It's surely a good offer!" Mrs. Saeki was happy hearing that, the joy in her heart shot up, "You don't have to work as hard as you usually do. Just accept it ah!"

Mrs. Saeki's words were met by laughter from Mr. Hokama, "If the benefits are better, I strongly suggest you accept the offer. As far as I know, your President Kinoshita has always been generous with his staff."

Mr. Hokama had been friends with President Kinoshita for more than three decades. They started from the bottom and only tasted success after sacrificing their time and youth.
