[I'm five minutes away from the building.]
When she read the text message she received from her husband, she quickly stood up and tidied her stuff to prepare herself to go out.
Kenneth, who was absorbed in his writing, was distracted by the noise Rui created. “You're finally leaving?”
“Hmm.”
“About time you leave, girl! You're disturbing me!”
“You're welcome, Ken,” she casually said before swiftly exiting the office.
The receptionist from earlier caught sight of Rui who was gracefully walking towards the exit of the building. She felt that Rui was the most beautiful woman she saw in her entire life so she wanted to take a picture with her. For her,
Lianna tried to buy trolls to slander Rui again but her credit cards and savings accounts were suddenly all frozen. The trolls won't execute her orders without 70% of payment. Hence, she won't be able to complete the transaction. She immediately called the bank to inquire about her account. She heard the manager of the bank say, “Mrs. Smith, your account was frozen by Mr. Smith. Please coordinate with your husband. We only followed through his orders.” Lianna was stunned to hear that her husband blocked all her access to money. How could she live without money?! Lianna felt her blood drain from her entirety. What if she went out with her cards frozen? Wouldn't that humiliate her?!
The next day, Rui's name finally went down from the trending list. However, even when she was not trending anymore, agents from entertainment companies were waiting for her in the University. Simply put, they wanted to drag Rui into the world of show business! Despite the countless invites she received, she rejected all of them. In the middle of her lecture, a school staff member suddenly entered Rui's lecture hall and said, “Professor Yoon, the President wanted to talk to you…” Rui pursed her lips and turned to her students, “I'll be giving this time for you all to review and get ready for the lab exam tomorrow.” She quickly packed up her things and went out with the staff.
A young lady entered the dressing room carefully before quietly placing the paper bag she was carrying to the side. “M-miss Lianna, here's your l-lunch…” she stammered. Lianna glared at her, “What took you so long?! Useless! You call yourself an assistant and yet it took you 5 minutes to fetch my food when you can do it in a minute?!” The assistant bowed, “I'm sorry, Mrs. Smith!” When Lianna heard her assistant call her Mrs. Smith, she was both annoyed and elated. Annoyed because she hated Shane to the core and elated because it shows that her status as a rich wife is significant and can't be overlooked. She impatiently waved her hand to dismiss the little assistant and focused on scrolling through her phone.
Eon sat inside the car quietly. He just looked out of the window as his Uncle drove the car. He got a good look at his father's best friend and thought he was pretty cool. He thought he was a good match with her. Though his Auntie was a cheerful person with a dash of crazy, she was still the most easy-going person he knew before he met the gentle Uncle Taylor. So far, he got the gist that his parents' besties are dating. For him, this combination is approved. ‘They're on the same wavelength,’ he mused. Leila looked at Eon nervously and cleared her throat. “Auntie, are you sick?” Leila was flustered
Warning: R18 content ahead! After the dinner with Leila and Taylor, Rui and Chase are now preparing to go to bed. Rui just finished her skincare routine and went out of their bathroom. As she walks towards their king-size bed, she hears Chase ask, “Honey… Do you still have a period?” Stunned, Rui's face became flushed red. She remained quiet as she tucked herself under the fluffy blanket. She noticed that her husband was looking at the place where she keeps her menstrual cups. The cup was inside the sterilizer cup so he probably inferred that she doesn't have a period anymore. She already expected this question from him. Chase's arm snaked around her waist and pulled her closer to him. Hi
The next day, Chase woke up early as usual. He looked at his beautiful wife who was peacefully sleeping beside him. She was so beautiful that he couldn't help but pull her into his embrace. He was enchanted by her peaceful face that he could only get whenever she was sleeping. Most of the time, she looks cool, aloof, and serious. But he wanted to see all her sides. As time goes by, he gets to know Rui's real character… and he couldn't help but fall for her harder. He was already on his knees, but now, he confirmed that he couldn't live without her. “Knock!! Knock!!” He suddenly heard a knock on their door so he stood up and went to open the door. He saw his son carrying his bunny plushie and his p
Rui swiftly put on her gloves, "Place the body on the table.” She asked the medical examiners that were brought by police to help her with the autopsy. "Details of the victim?" She casually asked. One of the assistants froze and held the initial report gathered from earlier. “The police found the victim lying down in the alley at 6:30 in the morning. And the photos of the crime scene were attached to the document. We arrived at the crime scene and inspected it as per the procedure. At that time, we estimated that the body was already dead for two to four hours due to livor mortis. The name of the victim is Akane Shin.” The assistant then pulled a thin man to face Rui closer and added, “This colleague here recognized the victim. He was her high school classmate.”
After eating, Chase took Rui to her apartment near the school. Rui stood in the autopsy room for more than two hours so she was dead tired. She will go back to the school later so she can check the progress of the samples in the lab. She has to finish the report as soon as possible so the police can proceed with the investigation. The facilities of the university were top-notch since they are the top institution in the country. So she has no problem with the progress and quality of the work. The autopsy was done in the autopsy room of the University of Centriona Hospital. Since the hospital in the school is always packed with patients and students, a word about a suspected serial murder will spread. It is inevitable that the students will feel alarmed. Who wouldn't be if the body was found near
