Arthur sat back behind his desk. He did not remember how the process of their conversation ended. All Arthur remembered was Lilian's blue eyes.
Even though Arthur could see a smile hanging on her chin, Lilian's eyes left a deeper impression. He felt strange and familiar with that look.
Arthur's reverie dispersed when Ian called him for a second time.
Ian knocked on the door first. He was not sure of hearing the reply from the inside and decided to push Arthur's door slowly.
Ian's brows furrowed as he saw the person he served lost in thought. It was very different from his younger sister who just came out with a cheerful expression.
"Sir?" Ian called him again, this time louder. It was only then that Arthur noticed Ian's presence.
"How?" Arthur immediately returned to himself and continued what was supposed to be his job earlier.
"I have delivered the document and handed it directly to the minister." Ian referred to Noland, Arthur's fa
"Of course not! You can visit here whenever you want." Noland spoke while clasping his hands together, anticipating his hopes for the future. He had more chance to improve their relationship and that made Noland excited.In a few minutes, Ben returned to Noland's side. His face was beaming.Noland furrowed his brows again. "Don't you have another job?" he smoothly tried to expel Ben."How can I have another job when you are here. Are you forget my job is to assist and protecting you?" Ben answered casually and looked at Lilian. "Princess, I didn't expect you to grow this wonderful and beautiful!"If only Lilian brought a fan, she would open it and cover her teeth which were ready to appear. Who could stand the praise in front of the face when those who gave the praise seemed more happy than the receiver?"Thank you. Uhm ... because as far as I see father and Mr. Griffiths have known each other for a long time, should I call you uncle?""Of c
"How could you say that to your only daughter? Do you want her to be an old maid?" Ben clearly disliked Noland's thoughts.In Ha ignored Ben's disapproval and smiled.Yes, Father. Engagements and that screw thing at this young age simply outdated. For someone living in the 21st century, matchmaking was the last thing you need to concern. People choose to come on some blind dates.Wait, isn't that the same?Anyway, Lilian's age was still at self-exploration stage. It was not being burdened with heavy word like engagement.She quickly went out after finished her tea, leaving Noland and Ben with their respective arguments. In Ha returned to the academy that day. Even though she was on an internship, their festival was still going on, so In Ha still had to go back to the academy and practice with the others.Besides, it wasn't just Lilian who returned to the academy, her classmates who were also in different divisions had to be back and pr
Michael did not accept that Lilian was under Logan's supervision rather than his. He pestered Arthur and followed him around, complaining how unfair they were choosing time to dividing their junior when he was absent.He had no choice when his presence was needed and had him summoned to the palace back then.Michael had warned Ian to monitor Arthur and asked him to make Arthur put Lilian under Michael's guide. If Michael himself do that, he definitely sure Arthur would ignored him. So he needed Ian to help. Maybe, if Ian put his hands, Arthur would listen to him.Ian, who was given the message, shrugged and muttered he had done what the second prince wanted and the result obviously.He didn't have the authority to force Arthur to go along with their will.They continue to argue until something loud interrupts Michael's words.Michael pulled out his eyes when he saw the situation that was happening. What lay before him was like a scene from a
Logan frowned slightly when he felt someone's presence in his private room. But when he smelled that familiar scent, the corner of his mouth lifted."You're here?""Hmm ..."Logan linked his eyebrows again. His hand stroked the swollen area carefully. Anger rose in his chest."Who did this?!"Marianne grabbed Logan's wrist and threw herself into the man's embrace before shedding her fake tears again."Sir Logan ...""Tell me, who did it?"Marianne sold Lilian's name without hesitation."I don't know what got into her. She thought I was approaching Arthur. However, you know that there was nothing between Arthur and me, sob ... ""Lady Lilian?" Logan sounded unsure. "Why does she think that? Come with me, we will solve this misunderstanding." Logan stood up. "I'll explain to her.""NOOO!!" Marianne quickly refused and hugged Logan. Her hands tightly encircle his waist. "If you say it, then all this will be ex
"YOU…!"Michael made a fist as Arthur face didn't change a bit."Argghh!" He finally yanked out. Michael couldn't stand talking to that iceberg anymore.After Michael left, Ian studied that iceberg expression. There wasn't much to draw from there and Ian sighed."What should we do?" Ian finally asked. He knew he had crossed a line he shouldn't have.The iceberg stared blankly at the blackened paper, which has been spilled with ink earlier when no one able to save. He couldn't get Lilian's gaze out of his mind. What is that?A Betrayal?Distrust?Disappointment?Somehow Arthur was familiar with that gaze, even though this was the first time he had seen it in Lilian. And as usual, he just watched without doing anything.He didn't know what to do in a situation like that, which frustrated Michael and made Ian questioned his decision.He was not used to dealing with more emotional relationships. He even
She heard a rumour.One of Marianne's followers, a lady from the Marquess house was famous for having a pet cat which treated like a prince.These noble cats were acting up but due to their aristocratic status the case was closed and people quickly forgot about it when it came to money.One of the people helping her was her fiancé, the person In Ha was going to meet this second.In Ha saw a man with glasses sitting behind the table and concentrating on the material in front of him. His haircut neat. His clothes didn't look expensive or extravagant, but plain and simple scholar. And this scholar was her stepping stone.The white writing 'Librarian Assistant' printed on the long wood in front of him.In Ha tapped the table softly. A sweet smile plastered on her lips.The man stood and respectfully asked what she needed.After some time he looked for what Lilian asked, with an embarrassed face, he returned to her."E
In Ha finished her assignment until late. No one here than herself in the department. She suddenly didn't want to return to the dorms even though her body was so tired.She wanted to meet Noland, but the corridor to his room looked scary. There were no guards on duty except in her office room and In Ha didn't want to ask them to escort her.Her activities have been full since she woke up in this world. And somehow the time has passed so slowly. She had no time to wander around and only thought about how to finish this role and hurried home.Home.Is there a place in the world over there that I can call home?Not just an empty place filled with dead furniture. But where there are people alive who warmly welcome she home.Well ... even though she wants to come back, there's nothing in particular waiting for her besides Won Ji Hoo.Ah...That man...at a time like this, he still busy working towards his dreams.A small smil
In Ha stared at the man in front of her in amazement. The book she thought would not be found in this world was now in his hands. One of the three books that she asked to find, miraculously existed. The assistant librarian smiled broadly. Proud himself of the achievements he has achieved. He puffed out his chest as if waiting for Lilian to praise him. In Ha, still with her eyes wide open said, "I really didn't expect you to find this book." "I asked several people to find it. This book is no longer produced, Miss. So maybe what you are holding right now is a valuable copy." In Ha looked at the hard cover book. She suddenly felt the book in her hand become heavier. The title in front of it was "The Unforgivable Temptation". She didn't know if the contents were the same as what she meant. For now, she thanked him. "Thank you Sir…" "Miller. My name is Vin Miller." "... thank you Mr. Miller." In Ha searched her memory for M
An old woman looked down at the distance. Her gaze fell on a pair of smiling lovebirds.She squinted her wrinkled eyes to make sure what she saw was real."Well, I guess it's about time that bastard opened the portal, right?"The granny turned to her side. A big wolf with sprakling silver fur stared at the same point."That is the last one." he mumbled.The next second, they heard something crack behind them. The two of them turned their heads in the same time and looked back.From out of nothing, a red crack appeared in the air and slowly revealed the sides inside."Come on." The big wolf was already on all fours and stepped inside.The granny, who had been known as a shaman all her life, followed the wolf without hesitation.It was time for her to end her life in this world.And continue the one that has been interrupted in that world.
The photo of In Ha being discharged from the hospital a few days ago returned to the gossip forums. Her fans made a fuss on her social media.'Hey, just yesterday her photo with A guy was seen, this time he has taken B with her.''Eh, do you think this guy looks like the guy in the Writer Kim scandal?''Wow, my goddess did not choose the wrong partner.''Uh, I just want to cry. They look good together.’Lee Han massaged his forehead.Now he knew why this special actress always escaped when she was caught in a case. The man in the photo was the investor in every job In Ha took. He even owned shares in Jewel Entertainment.Lee Han felt that maybe he should start worshiping that woman.The woman he wanted to worship called.“Lee Han Oppa!”"Yes. What is it? Are you okay?""Yes thank you. I want to tell you something…” In Ha took a long pause in between.Lee Han raised his
"I'll ask again, did you sleep with In Ha too?" the way he caledl her name made it sounded intimate.In Ha felt Arthur's hand on her waist tighten. He stiffened. Either because he feel offended or angry at Ji Hoo's words. What was certain is that In Ha really didn't like the words that come out of his dirty mouth. Did he think people of the opposite sex should sleep together every time they met?"You-!"“For a well-known lawyer, your mouth doesn't live up to your reputation. Ah, I think a new reputation might be appropriate.” Arthur cut In Ha calmly. His demeanor made the opposite of his tight touch."Ha! Screw that reputation."Ji Hoo found out what Bon-Hwa was doing behind his back. At first, he hoped it would turn In Ha back to him, but instead, it made his name even more muddy.“I forgot to tell you. I already fired that woman. So there's no reason why we can't be together, right?” he looked at In Ha sharply.
…Alex's head was spinning. He wanted to abandon this case.Today, they gathered together on the grounds of mediation. With the excuse that she was still injured, In Ha stayed at the hospital so they decide to meet in her room.They here referred to In Ha as a victim, Alex as her lawyer and Anna Kim's representative as her defender.But who would have thought, the lawyer who came and sat in front of them was Won Ji Hoo?That scandalous lawyer?And Seo In Ha's rumored ex-boyfriend?The latest information he got, Won Ji Hoo took over the case that should be handled by Lawyer Wang.Alex hated criminal lawyers. Especially lawyers who defend everything for money. It didn't matter if they were guilty or not. And Won Ji Hoo fell into this category. Even so, his career in the world of lawyers couldn be said to be good. That made Alex even more reluctant to deal with him.It wasn't just Alex who had a wrinkled face.
Anna who was stay in the prison bit her nails in annoyance.How could she fall into that bitch's trap? She also could only blame herself for impulsively picking up that broken vase which was thrown at her.She should have moved even faster, then she could have sliced that sly face of her and damaged it."I didn't have time to do anything to that bitch, how could they hold me back?!" Anna shouted at the lawyer Kim Yu Kwan had hired.The Lawyer stood right outside of bars were already reviewing the case. He took Anna only to lighten her sentence. About how to free her, it was rather difficult because there were witnesses and evidence that clearly cornered her.“You must be able to do something! Aren't you my father's chosen competent lawyer?” Anna looked at him in frustration. She assumed that if Alex represented her, she would get out of the pinch easily. But the man did not receive any of her calls.No. No.Anna couldn't l
Su Jung blamed him and stopped all her activities.The classical music two decades ago already had a promising future, yet Su-Jung threw it away in search of her daughter. But no matter how hard they did, they couldn't do anything, because of limited resources and manpower at that time.After nearly 20 years, they have finally come to light.Actually, when he saw In Ha debut as an actress, Seo Jun had been trying to find out about her because of the similarities between him and the girl, but as if an invisible wall was blocking him, he could never get close to her.It continued until at one point he stopped researching about In Ha, in search of more money and other sources, then, a while ago, when their CEO brought In Ha in, his feelings got even more crazy and he started to find out again.He didn't expect her and Heo Jun to live in the same place and Su-Jung even interacted with her. If it wasn't for Byung Ul, they wouldn't be able to ask for thi
The next day, Heo Jun immediately came to the hospital after Alex called him as In Ha agreed to their condition.He couldn't wait to have his blood drawn or his hair pulled.Su-Jung didn't come along, but Jin Seo Jun, who heard the thing, rushed to accompany his son.He looked at Arthur awkwardly. He didn't want to say a word to Arthur since it was not a business, but that man was one of the company's best assets. He couldn't help but greet him.In Ha was surprised to see Seo Jun's presence. She didn't expect this man and that dangerous looking Lady to be a married couple.The process of taking In Ha and Heo Jun's blood samples for comparison only took a short time. As if to make sure the result didn't lack anything or need to be repeated, Seo Jun also voluntarily asked for a test to be taken from him.The inspection process, which should have taken 2 weeks, could be seen in one day. Thanks to Adam who felt guilty and wanted to make up
Anna stood up in a flash.Her hand grabbed the broken flower vase and with a raised hand attacked In Ha.Arthur who heard a loud noise rushed in with the nurse who accidentally passed by and heard the commotion."AHHHH!"The shrill voice of the nurse beside him froze Arthur in place. His body reacted without having time to think. He grabbed Anna and threw her to the floor.Anna shouted in pain. She felt her bones shatter and the shards of the vase in her hand stabbed into the palm, making a deep cut.In Ha, who should have been able to go home that day, was hospitalized again with scratches along her left arm.Arthur's panicked reaction when he saw the blood flowing from her hands covered up the fact that a small smile was on In Ha's lips.Anna got the arrest warrant that very night.The media who were preparing outside the hospital could only stretch their necks when the artist who was expected to be discharged from the
Arthur gazed at In Ha who looked back at him. Her eyes full of question marks. Her mouth formed the word 'what'."Arthur?""I'll call you back later." He just hung up the phone."Why? Is there any serious problems?”In Ha had a guess. She spent all her day on the phone after Hyun Jae went home. The news about the real Anna graced all the online gossip outlets."He asked me to meet and talk to Anna."In Ha looked at Arthur who was staring at her in silence. "You want to talk to her?""No. But I also want to know why she did it.”"Go meet her."Arthur was surprised to hear In Ha's words. His outstretched hand to reach In Ha's luggage stopped.“But in exchange, I want to came along. I can't just leave you alone with that woman. There's something I want to confirm anyway." In Ha stood up and buttoned his shirt up.Arthur sighed.He could faintly smell In Ha's scent and his specific part
