    After parting ways with Tiffany, Nanako Ito joined Charlie once more as they strolled through the bustling shops of Ginza.


    In an effort to avoid showing favoritism, Charlie purchased a luxurious boss suit for his older partner, Jacob.


    Jacob now spends his days mingling with members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, where he has risen to the rank of the No. 2 figure. His reputation has certainly grown.


    Moreover, the association he is affiliated with often coborates and exchanges ideas with Matilda’s senior college. By buying a suit for Jacob, Charlie aims to help him look more vibrant and energetic, enhancing his standing and presence.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Additionally, Charlie picked up various small essories and trinkets here and there.


    At 3:30 PM, with only about two hours left before his flight to Osaka, Charlie reminded Nanako Ito, “Nanako, it’s almost time. I need to head to the airport.”


    Without hesitation, Nanako Ito replied, “Charlie, I’ll take you!”


    Charlie responded, “I need to drive and leave my car at the airport. If youe with me, how will you get back?”


    “That’s not a problem,” Nanako Ito insisted. “I can arrange for someone to pick me up from the airport. Don’t worry about me!”


    Charlie questioned, “Isn’t that too much trouble for you?”


    “Not at all!” Nanako Ito said earnestly. “Charlie, I really want to take you to the airport. I would love to apany you to Osaka and back to Aurous Hill, but my family situation is quiteplicated right now, making it hard for me to leave. So, please let me take you to the airport…”


    Moved by her words, Charlie replied, “Alright, let’s drive to the airport together. You should also call your family and arrange for someone to pick you up.”


    “Yes!” Nanako Ito agreed cheerfully, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it!”


    “Sounds good!”


    With that, Charlie decided not to argue any further. They both got into the car and headed to Tokyo Airport. This trip marked Charlie’s first journey back. As they drove, Nanako Ito couldn’t shake her feelings of reluctance. Since their first meeting in Aurous Hill, she had developed strong feelings for Charlie. Meeting him again in Japan only deepened her affection. With their impending separation, she felt anxious about whether she would have another opportunity to see him. She sensed that Charlie had helped lift a significant weight off her heart.


    Nanako Ito was quite perceptive; she understood that Charlie’s visit to Japan was likely due to his own injury, and that he empathized with her situation. It also happened that she possessed the medicine that could cure his ailment, prompting him to travel to Kyoto in search of healing.<fn25f4> Official source is find?novel</fn25f4>


    In that moment, she felt a profound loneliness and wondered to herself, “Now that my injury is healed, will Charlie still be able to find relief in the future?”


    This thought brought her sadness. In her heart, she wished she could sacrifice more to remain in Japan for Charlie, but she knew that was simply not feasible.<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
