"Well, that's just my take. Don't take me seriously, brother-in-law. You see, I had my time as a big playboy in my youth, and Clarke never had one, right? He told me that he never cheated on you after you two were dating and then got married."

"So I was just thinking about the possibility."

Of course, Gaius would think about the possibilities! He also had a brain. Even though he kept trying to deny it, that kind of idea would pop out in his mind!

[Pupa, do you think Clarke will cheat on me? I mean, he has all access to the world. He's also popular.]

[While me… not so much… I'm just a regular housewife here.]

[Pupa: Based on the character background, Clarke is the most loyal out of you two. He never has any intention to cheat or whatsoever.]

[But that's the background before Reed enters the fray. Who knows, he might've already stirred up something behind me.]

[So there is a chance that Clarke might be… or already cheat on me!]

[Pupa: Why do you turn paranoid so suddenly? There's no proof yet. Stop assuming things.]

[It's just… I don't know… I just have that fear, I guess…]

Reed wanted to do more. He wanted to touch Gaius and defile this wife of his brother, turning him into his personal bitch. 

But he knew restraint, of course. If he pushed Gaius right now, there was a big chance Gaius would resent him forever since he was still loyal to his husband. 

Reed wanted to strike when Gaius was utterly heartbroken until he couldn't even stand up from the ground, lying weakly as his heart had been crushed by Clarke. 

Then… what? Did you think that Reed would pick him up and cuddle him?

Of course not! That wasn't Reed's style at all!

'I will fuck him while he's lying on the ground weakly, defile him until he  has no way to stand up other than obeying my order, HAHAHA!' Reed found himself entertained with that imagination of Gaius being his sex slave. It was far more interesting than just destroying the whole family and ruining Clarke's life.

[Pupa: Ding! Reed Ville's Fatemeter increases to 10%.]

[Oh, come on, I bet you have something up in your sleeve! You're a schemer! Pupa, is he really not that monster? I feel like this is how that Monster would do in the previous world.]

[Pupa: He is Master Han Ye's soul shard in this world. He is Master of this realm.]

Gaius was too anxious, his mind wandered off, thinking about the worst possibility, and he found himself unable to stay calm. 

Gaius got up from the chair and distanced himself from Reed to calm his anxious heart. 

"T—Thank you for telling me. I'm glad that you like my lunch boxes," Gaius tried to shift his attention towards the gardenia bouquet that Reed brought. It always had that funny smell, but so far, it didn't have any side effects, so he just let it sit in the vase. "And thank you for the bouquet as always."

"It's fine. I want to decorate the apartment with it. It looks good, right?"

"Indeed…"

"Well, about the lunch boxes, I really love them! It's definitely the tastiest lunch box I've ever tasted," Reed praised. "Brother-in-law, if you're not burdened, I wouldn't mind eating some more later. I can pay if you want me to."

"No, you don't need to pay, but…." Gaius wanted to say he only made lunch boxes for his beloved Husband because that was his way to show love.

But his husband didn't like it anymore. Did that mean he had to give it to someone else, an outsider?

How about showing love through small things to your significant other?

Gaius shook his head, trying to clear his head, "It's fine. I'll cook for you later. I think you need to leave now, Reed. I need to do some laundry, and Artemis is napping right now."

"Ah, okay then. I'll leave now," Reed glanced at the gardenia bouquet in the vase, and a small grin formed on his face. "See you later, brother-in-law."

Reed left the house with satisfaction in his heart. He entered his car and told the chauffeur to go to the office. He was silent the whole time, but after an hour, Reed suddenly burst into a terrible cackle, "AHA—AHAHAHAHAHA—AHA, SO FUNNY!"

"M—Master, is everything alright?" The chauffeur asked worriedly, afraid that his Master had been affected by that scent from the flower bouquet he brought to Gaist family apartment 

Reed tried to contain his laugh because he also thought he was being crazy right now. He wiped the tears at the edge of his eyes and chuckled some more before answering, "I just encountered a funny scene. It's so funny that I've been holding my laugh the whole time."

"What is it, Master?"

"It's about my brother's family, Gaist family. The wife, Gaius Gaist, is such an idiot. He's a naive, weak-willed idiot. I can get him in my hand just by simply making his kids like me."

"He's also so concerned about lunch boxes. I bet his weak-willed ass wouldn't confront Clarke about it, and there will be more miscommunication later on."

"Pfft! It's just… it's just so funny to imagine how conflicted he is, while I'm actually the one controlling everything the whole time! AHAHAHAHAH!"

The chauffeur tightened his grip on the steering wheel. He was terrified by his Master because of his omnipotent power hidden behind his playful playboy bravado.

"Master, why are you doing this to your brother's family? Is this some kind of our mission?"

"Ah, no, not really. I'm just bored, and the fact that I'm actually related to Superbman is thrilling!" Reed replied with a snicker. Then he leaned back on the leather seat and grinned, "Now that I have a new toy, I've been thinking about going further with my plan. I think ruining Clarke is a bit boring. So I'll step up the game and absolutely crush that naive, idiotic wife of his."
