When one door closes, another one will always open, as Avita discovered.She created a business after losing her job at the accounting firm. Although business was slow at first, it was gradually picking up, and she can now safely state that everything was OK.Her freelancing business was not doing well, but she was too preoccupied with SmileDream to be as bitter as she had been in the beginning.When she began cheating on Patrick, feeling bad about what she was doing and without sufficient and convincing reasons why hickeys were discovered on her body or why she was no longer as active as she once was, Patrick provided a way out.He stopped coming home early and didn't care about intimacy, which saved her a lot of time.She realized it would be tough for her in the future after having a taste of Miguel. And with Patrick doing everything he could to avoid her, she was happy that her short existence had been protected.Patrick recommended splitting up when things were becoming sour and
A FEW DAYS LATER“……..You've shown me I have reasonsI should love myself (Oh-oh-oh)I'll answer with my breath, my pathThe me of yesterdayThe me of todayThe me of tomorrow(I'm learning how to love myself)With no exceptions, it's all me…..”As a major BTS fan, Avita is constantly singing or humming one of their songs.Naomi, who was standing very next to Avita, couldn't help but wonder what tune Avita was singing. After all, she couldn't even hear the words correctly.When Avita sang in Korean, folks who didn't understand the language assumed she was making a joke.Avita, on the other hand, didn't care what others thought as long as her body, soul, and intellect were all in sync.She loves the song, and it was ideal for the situation she was in at the time.With a bright smile, she tilted her head and gazed at Naomi.Naomi took a defensive stance, ready for whatever Avita had in store for her.She learned a bit about Avita after following her for a while. She would do strange thi
Avita breathed a sigh of relief the next day after the landlord checked the apartment and discovered nothing was wrong.When he was finished, Avita enthusiastically gave over the keys to the flat.A vehicle was waiting for her outside, and it was in this truck that she found the furnishings she was using in the old apartment.She didn't need this furniture because her new house was fully furnished. She didn't want to be reminded of Patrick by retaining this furniture, so she devised a strategy.When the truck driver noticed she was gone, he started the engine and drove away.Naomi arrived to pick up Avita, so the two easily trailed behind the truck."Are you absolutely certain you want to do this?" Naomi asked, still not believing Avita's decision.Avita said with a smile, "Of course, when one has a chance, one should do some good deeds."Naomi couldn't help but look at Avita again. She never imagined that this money-obsessed person would have such a generous heart."Then I thank you
“Wham, bam.”“Damn! How could we have missed this?" As he hit the tree trunk, a tiny man cursed angrily with bulging veins showing on his skin.His companion's attitude was bleak, and he was smoking, so he appeared melancholy."What do you think she'll do if we tell her about this?" the slim man asked his partner."Hahh, knowing her, she won't let us off.""Then what should we do?" the slender man worriedly questioned.The companion stared at the slender man, perplexed, and replied, "Find the child and get rid of her.""How are we going to find her? It's been years, and we still don't have a photo or any information on her.""Yes, there is. We only need to find the peasants who stayed near the mountain. You never know when they might have seen the youngster.""But do you believe the child saw us and is the one threatening the mistress?""It's possible and, at the same time, it can't be. She was young at the time, and if she had seen us, wouldn't she have denounced us to the authoritie
“Vroom, vroom.”The trees swayed from left to right as the car drove down the road. The sound of the wind and traffic accompanied her as she made her way toward a location where she was still unsure whether this was real or not.Lucilla drove straight into this peaceful neighborhood she had heard about but had never visited.Thandani wasn’t a place that was on par with where she was used to living. However, based on the gorgeous residences, she could discern that the neighborhood was far superior to slum or high-density districts. So, the place was quite good.House prices in this neighborhood should range between 600,000 to a million Drynis.This was nothing in comparison to what she was used to, but the fact that she was driving into Thandani to visit a friend made her suspect her friend. How could she afford to live in such a neighborhood?But because her friend wasn't present, she couldn't ask her and had to wait till she arrived at her destination.Lucilla followed the GPS until
ONE HOUR LATER"You've got to be kidding me! Is that anything that happens around here?" Lucilla couldn't stop laughing as she listened to what Avita was saying to her.“Tssss, tssss.”"Haha, how can I lie to you? Imagine my shock when I saw that!" Avita replied as she stir-fried her vegetables before continuing, "Imagine my shock when I saw that!"Lucilla's face was filled with a smile, although her eyes were red from crying, and this sight made her incredibly cute and made one want to bully her.Avita stared at Lucilla, who was crying with joy, and pondered how boring her life had to be for her to laugh so hard at her casual anecdote."This is excessive! I had no idea communities could be that interesting.""Alas, I thought this kind of thing only happened in our noisy neighborhoods, but who would have guessed that it happens everywhere?""It's quite shocking, ae."While Avita finished making lunch for the two, the two girls chatted happily.Avita served the pap, veggies, and beef s
"Have I ever told you anything about my past?" As she stared at Lucilla, Avita asked sadness.Lucilla had looked into it but had never explicitly asked about it, so she shook her head, "No, you haven't. Would you like to talk about it?""If you're interested, I can entertain you for a while," Avita said helplessly, staring at Lucilla with a hopeful expression.With that type of stare, even if Lucilla wasn't eager to listen, she didn't dare to deny her. Despite being defeated by Avita's move, she responded without hesitation, "Sure, I want to know more about you."With Lucilla having taken the bait, Avita wasted no time in repeating what she had told Miguel the night before.These two were father and daughter, and if they included her in their chats one day and the stories weren't the same, wouldn't she be caught that time?Lucilla had no idea she was being fooled at the time, but her eyes were welling up with tears as Avita's childhood was truly terrible, making her feel sorry for the
“Badum, badum.”As she drove into the familiar yard, she found herself with a frantic thumping and racing heart for the first time in over a month.When that lady called excitedly immediately after parting with Lucilla, Avita began to regret softening her heart.Who would have expected that Lucilla would tell her story to Felicia, who then called her and invited her to the mansion to unwind a little?A guilty Avita didn't want to go there, especially since she was sleeping with Miguel without his family knowing.And being in the same spot as her lover, knowing that he will be sharing the same room with his wife and maybe getting intimate, was difficult for Avita.Previously, this didn't matter because she was adamant about never setting foot in that mansion. It was going to be like that as long as she pretended it wasn't happening.She used to have Patrick, and Felicia's presence didn't bother her much, but now, since she was dependent only on Miguel, even seeing Felicia would be diff
