Samantha hadn't considered that her mother might have planned the whole thing out, and just thought that she was being duped by someone. But after thinking about it some more, what Emilia said made sense.
However, she also agreed that her mother's move had a very high likelihood of backfiring. As for the reason? Well, her little sister told her so, and as far as Samantha was concerned, Emilia could never be wrong.
The taller girl couldn't help but sigh as she hugged her little sister closer. "What do we do, then?"
Emilia didn't think Mrs. White would change her mind on this matter, irrespective of how they negotiated, and no matter how eloquently she tried to put forth her perspective.
After all, as an experienced businesswoman, she wouldn't suddenly find her plans unfeasible after she had already thought them through multiple times.
However, just because they couldn't stop the flow of a river, didn't mean they couldn't divert it.
Most of Samantha's attention was focused on how cute Emilia was when she squirmed in her lap. Was her little sister getting shy now? It was a little strange when compared to her usual naughty self, but adorable nonetheless.
Of course, her little sister's words were very precious to her, and Samantha would never ignore them even in her dreams. After listening to Emilia's plan, she thought it was quite feasible. "So I just have to tell her about the deal between Mr. Black and Mrs. Brown, right?"
Emilia nodded, inwardly cursing Dixie and Crystal for turning her on so much that she couldn't even imagine teasing Sam without going crazy herself. "Instead of trying to convince her that she shouldn't do it, just telling her that there is this 'emergency' due to which we really can't help it would be much more effective."
Samantha couldn't help but grin as she squeezed Emilia tighter in delight, making the girl whimper. "E-Eh? Did I hurt you?!"
Emilia blushed. "N-Not at all, Sam, instead… it felt really good."
The older girl took a moment to realize what she meant, and her eyes went wide. "Oh… Ohh!"
Although Emilia had been on her lap, and they were on her bed, Samantha wasn't touching any 'erogenous' zone, as far as she was aware. She truly never expected such a thing.
However, looking at her sister's reddened ears, she couldn't help but take a bite.
Emilia couldn't help but whimper. "S-Sam! We're discussing serious things!"
In her mind, Cynthia scoffed, clearly disgusted. "Maybe you shouldn't have given her such convenient access, then? Why even sit on her lap?"
Emilia was already a little frustrated, and had no intention of arguing with her partner. 'She's been good, and I haven't treated her as well recently. Besides, you never used to mind me getting closer to Samantha?'
Cynthia rolled her eyes, but refused to respond. She had felt that Samantha was the 'safest' option for Emilia to be affectionate, but she knew she had been wrong.
However, Cynthia couldn't let Emilia know that this older girl was clearly a freak who would even go for her little sister, not while she was in such an aroused state. After all, who knew what would happen?
Samantha finally snapped out of her daze, her face going red. "Ahem, right! Un, I doubt even mom would be able to take Mr. Black lightly. She won't be so stubborn when he's involved unexpectedly, and should agree to delay her plans a little. We might even be able to get more help from her."
Of course, no matter how embarrassed she was, letting Emilia go was out of the question.
In fact, now that Samantha was a little more aware, she could clearly see that her little sister had been in a little 'strange' state from the moment she entered. The thought made her a little giddy. 'W-Was she so excited to meet me?'
Emilia smiled when she felt the taller girl loosen her hold a little, glad that Samantha so obedient. "Mhm, and by the time we're done dealing with Mr. Black's scheme, the porter brothers would already be 'done for'. Of course, you realize that this wouldn't be enough, right?"
But even if Samantha had been listening carefully, most of her thoughts were elsewhere. She could understand what Emilia meant, but she wasn't quite sure how to respond.
Feeling that the older girl was confused, Emilia decided to elaborate. "See, doing this just means we'll get rid of Sullivan's pawn, which is exactly what our mother was aiming for too. The source of the trouble still remains."
"Ohh."
Emilia smiled. "The only difference we would end up making would be avoiding damage temporarily. They'll just send in a new pawn."
Samantha bit her lip, most of her naughty thoughts having already evaporated. "W-What do we do then?"
Emilia patted the older girl's hand to assure her that there wasn't much to be worried about. "I think you should ask dad to look into the matter, and send me the list of everyone involved in getting this Jeoffery Porter where he is in our company. Don't worry, I'll handle it."
Of course, Samantha couldn't just push all her problems on to Emilia and relax. "Uh, but what if they were just operating on mom's orders? Emilia…"
Emilia sighed. "Like I said, don't worry, I'll look into that as well. Just give me a complete list. As for mom… well, didn't you say you had dad completely on our side?"
Recalling how her father had 'accepted' her as the future 'head of the family', Samantha couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and guilty. "Y-Yeah?"
"Then why can't he convince her?"
Samantha coughed. "W-Well… you know dad, he's kinda… whipped?"
Emilia couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Yeah, but I recall he managed to go against her to arrange me a fiancé, so he's perfectly 'capable' of doing that, right? You just need to make sure he understands how 'important' it is for him to do so. If you need any 'help' in doing that… you can always ask me."
