While the boys were still stunned and clearly caught off-guard as they received the news, on the other part of the world, Mo Jing-sheng’s wife was sitting beside a woman whose beauty could match up to that of Nathan.

No… her beauty was that of the goddesses and deities found in the Eastern Fantasy novels and movies.

She had this pair of almond-shaped green eyes but when looked closely, she had a rare eye disorder called heterochromia. The left one was hazel while the other one was green with both surrounded by thick and long black eye lashes which were curled upwards. Her eyebrows were well painted on top of them.

Her high-bridged nose was perfectly molded to match her small face. She had this slightly puffy cheeks that was well highlighted especially when she showed her beautiful gummy smile.

She had this kissable and rosy lips that every man wanted to have a taste.

She had this V-shape jaw to chin bone that emphasized her small face more.

Her skin was like that of a Chinese porcelain which glowed for she was wearing a knee-length lace red dress and white slip on flat shoes. Her straight jet black hair was left in the open as she wanted them to breathe for a while.

Aside from her face and glossy skin, she was gifted with a slightly tall frame. The woman stand at 176 cm tall. She had this toned arms and legs which implied that this woman worked out too.

Though she’s as tall as that of a runway model, she had those curves in the right places and great body posture that it’s not awkward to look at her walking or standing.

Though she was born with big appetite, she never gained weight. This traits of hers made Mo Jing-sheng’s wife Kelly Lim Roland envious of her best friend, Kim Eunji.

After the couple exchanged their sweet goodbye, the woman then turned her attention to Eunji who was busy browsing on her phone monitoring the movement of the International Stock Market.

“Eunji-yah!” She whined.

Eunji only gave her a glance and then looked back on her phone.

“Are you still mad at me?” Kelly asked again.

This time Eunji tilted her head to the right as if contemplating for the right words she should tell to this beautiful woman.

Eunji then smiled and placed her phone inside her pouch and turned her attention to Kelly. She had to clear things out or else this best friend of hers would surely be pestering her.

“I’m not mad.” Eunji finally said. Her voice was so soft yet melodic that even now, Kelly could not help not to be captivated by it.

Too bad, both of them were into men or was she? As she reckoned, Eunji had never been in a relationship since the first time they met!

“Oh gosh! Are you into me!? You should have made your move to me sooner!” Kelly suddenly said that made Eunji gaped. She didn’t know either she would laugh or cry.

However she said in a flat tone, “Are you done? Seems like you have a lot of time to sprout nonsense and don’t need me here.”

Kelly gasped in disbelief. This woman is unbelievable! She didn’t take jokes lightly. She take every words seriously.

“No! Stay! I need you. I still need you even if I’m…I’m already married.” Kelly said in puppy eyes.

“You know me. I don’t take matters lightly.” Kelly’s lips twitched as soon as she heard Eunji’s serious tone.

“You know what, you should learn how to loosen up. It’s been six years since you’ve been reborn Kim Eunji. Can you lower your guard just this once?” Kelly looked at the beautiful woman who was frowning this time.

“I mean, yeah! You’ve changed drastically from your past self but be more outgoing.” Kelly could hear Eunji’s sigh. Her heart ached for her.

At one glance, one could never see the hardships that Eunji had faced in the past.

Yes, Kim Eunji was Anastasia, the girl who deliberately took poison just to have her freedom.

She did not die that day. Before she took that poisonous drug, she took an antidote for that poison. She was thankful that her parents agreed and supported her plan and arranged for her supposedly dead body out of the Head Quarters with the help of the people whom they trust.

“I felt like I’m still a stranger to you!” Kelly was hurt.

She was her best friend. She had seen Eunji on her worst! She was there when Eunji had an eye surgery and laser treatment to erase that deep scar on her forehead.

She had been thinking ways for Eunji to open up herself more.

No matter how hard she tried to push the girl to break free and loosen up, she was not able to do so. Now, the only option that she had not tried was to set Eunji on a blind date.

She just prayed that the man would not peed on his pants after their encounter. Heaven knows how scary Eunji could become when triggered. She could turn from this elegant and innocent looking lady to a monster. Kelly had been keeping Eunji on check to not encounter trouble because she’s afraid that Eunji would lost control of herself and attract the attention of the people whom thought she’s dead.

“I didn’t mean it that way.” Eunji felt guilty. “Since you asked me not to check on his background and to trust you, I respected your request and keep my hands off in this matter. I love you and I know you know that! Therefore, you could not stop me from worrying. You even didn’t allow me to meet your man before you said YES to his proposal! What more? Flash marriage?! Do you know how crazy the two of you were? Therefore, I felt frustrated.”Eunji felt like she was being wronged at the same time, too.

Kelly’s eyes widened due to Eunji’s sudden outburst. This was the first time that Eunji uttered so many sentences in one go! ‘Is the world about to end soon?’ She thought.

Instead of getting angry she felt warm inside as she was extremely touched.

“Don’t get the wrong idea. The world is still safe and won’t end so soon. Talking’s not my forte. It’s so tiresome to talk.” Eunji spoke that made Kelly inwardly face palmed herself.

“Then, we’re good?” Kelly probed.

“It’s you who had been thinking that we aren’t in the first place.” Eunji retorted.

“I really love him though that’s why I did not hesitate to say yes when he proposed despite us only dating for a month and agreed to get our marriage certificate the next day. No relationship is perfect Eunji… I believe that in a relationship… trust is more important than the span of time that we’ve been together.

And I’m happy that we have your blessing. Thank you for supporting us!” Kelly said as she tried to stop the tears that were about to escape from her eyes.

Eunji hugged her and whispered comforting words on her.

Though they met later in their lives, she acknowledged her as her sister.

Kelly was born from a British father and a Chinese mother. Both of her parents died due to a car accident.

She had been staying overseas for the past 19 years and had just returned back to China this year per her grandfather’s request– Patriarch Cui who is also the current Patriarch of the Cui Family, the third richest family in Beijing and in China.

She was never close to her Maternal family. The only family that she recognized was Kim Eunji, her foster father Mr. Roland and her now husband Mo Jing-sheng.

“Don’t cry now okay? You’ll get ugly if you do and brother-in-law might kill me for making you cry.”

Kelly chuckled as soon as she heard Eunji’s words.

“No. My man’s not like that.” She defended him.

“Overprotective much? Then, he better not make you cry or else…” Though she said it in a lighter tone, but deep down, she’s dead serious.

“Oh please! I don’t want to be a widow at an early age!” Kelly whined at her.

“And besides, I knew you would never do that!” Kelly added that made Eunji frown a bit.

“Because I’ll be sad when that time comes and you know you’ll feel guilty afterwards.” Though Kelly’s explanation was a bit childish, there’s some truth in them.

“Alright! I won’t touch your man. I will just talk sense to him.” Kelly smiled as soon as she heard Eunji’s response.

This was how close their relationship were. Both would try their best to protect each other.

“Then, it’s settled! You’ll be flying with me tomorrow back to China and attend my wedding ceremony and the reception 2 weeks from now!” Kelly said with a huge grin on her face.

Of course! They still planned to have a wedding and declared their vows in front of their beloved families and friends.

Eunji wanted to protest as she hated gatherings but since it’s Kelly’s most important day, she would never dare miss it!

“Head first. I will follow a day after.” Kim Eunji reassured.

Had she known that her life would turn 360- degrees because of this, Eunji might gave it a second thought before she agreed to this.

Will she regret this decision? Maybe yes? Maybe no?
