Another week went by and Davi haven't even heard anything about Sei. She was busy with her review but she's starting to miss him really bad.

She could only whisper the words, 'When will you come back?' to herself.

The house was silent. As if the temperature of it had gone lower than zero degrees and it's driving her crazy. For the first time since she set foot in the Gray mansion, she felt an indescribable sadness. Mr. Kazuki, the cheerful butler also said goodbye days ago, causing the gloomy clouds lingered persistently in every nook of the house.

That morning, she again buried herself into piles of books. The exam is getting closer and studying was indeed a great distractor. Her complete immersion in her studying caused her to totally ignore the brewing gloomy atmosphere as she became one with the books she's reading.

After five hours, she finally went out and walked towards the garden with her beloved note in her hand.

She was thinking deep. Although she was busy with her review, she thought that the current flow of event wasn't good at all. She couldn't accept just sitting quietly without doing anything and obediently waiting for his return. She wants to do something.

This can't be happening. I need to continue my mission even though he's not here, right?

As soon as she processed her thoughts, she opened her note as she sat on the grasses. She studied every steps written as though she was miss detective trying to figure out a written cryptic message.

Looking at her note, Davi was surprised knowing that for the entire month she spent with him, she only executed a mere twelve steps. Are you serious?

Davi was a bit disappointed to herself as she pouts like a little kid. She bit her lip then tugged her own hair as she stared sharply at the note.

Shortly after, as though she finally decoded the secret message, she shouted excitedly. The light in her eyes returned as if her imaginary motivation battery was re-charged again, 1001%.

"Yijin! Are you there?" she said and like an invisible ninja suddenly popping out of nowhere, Yijin appeared in front of her.

"Yes, young miss," the young man stood like a soldier in front of her and Davi stood close to him immediately.

"I want Sei's cellphone number," she said and the young man instantly froze.

"Sorry young miss, I don't have his number," he said and Davi fell silent for a moment then she tugged her hair and sat like a weakened white kitten on the ground. Her sudden unexpected reaction immediately shocked the young man.

"No. You're lying. Even Mr. Gou doesn't want to give it to me. Are you guys serious?" Davi was devastated and looking as though she's about to cry.

And before the young man could explain his reason, the girl stormed towards the mansion and locked every door, not letting anyone to enter.

That moment, Yijin, the butler and the maids were all stunned they couldn't talk for a long while. They looked like deadly lightning just struck them hard. They knew that the young miss never acted this way before. She's always been the kind of a lady who's serenely self-composed and never threw tantrums like this. This is the first time their lady boss gets upset, thus, making all of them extremely worried to the nook of their bones.
