Chapitre 1: Chapter 1: Landing in France
The sun is shining brightly and produces a scorching hot ultraviolet light. The sun's rays reflected in the window buildings. No clouds could be seen in the vast azure sky and the traffic continuously flows in the constantly revolving city of New York.
Red lights turn green, the honks of the tracks and chattering of the citizens created a noisy and busy environment. This is New York, a fast pace city located in the Northeastern USA.
In a certain office, a woman with a dignified poise and serious expression is looking over in a bunch of paper. The woman on the office chair was extremely beautiful with her black wavy hair, sharp eyebrows, smoky grey eyes, long bridge nose, and a perfect shape peach lips. This woman is Riley Whyte, the CEO of the notorious RR Corporation whose ranking is always in the Top 10 in the world rankings.
The woman held her head and massage her temple when she felt a headache.
Riley look at the documents in her hands and her sight is seemingly seeing a fleeting double vision. Riley shakes her head and massages her temple then when her sight return to normal, she goes back to work. However, Riley feels uncomfortable and plans to drink water but when she stands up. She felt her whole world seemingly spinning and before she know it, Riley's sight went black and plunge into darkness.

Riley was awakened at the vague voice in the background, her hearing feels like she is underwater. She didn't open her eyes but tried to hear the conversation between the doctor and her best friend — Reynalyn Williams. As time pass by, her hearing gradually grew clearer until she heard a piece of the conversation.
"It is not serious, the cause is overwork but don't underestimate it. A considerable amount of people died from overworking. Overworking is causing serious problems for businesses all over the globe. Make sure she takes a proper rest"
"Yes"
"You should also remind her to sleep early, eat properly and do not exert herself and take a relaxation once in a while"
"I'll be sure to convey it to her"
Then, Riley heard the door open and close. Riley try to open her eyes but squinted when her vision was exposed to bright light. She blinks a few more times and lets her eyes adjust. When she opened her eyes, a shadow falls on Riley's body. She look up at the source and saw her beloved best friend with a raised eyebrow and cross arms.
Unlike Riley who exuded a chilling aura that keeps people 10 meters away from her and only makes people stare at her from afar like an ethereal and rare flower in the Snowy Mountain. Reynalyn is like a typical playful bad girl with tattoos on her arms and piercings on her earlobes. Unlike Riley who is always has a frigid and expressionless expression. Reynalyn always has a faint playful smile on her face and a mischievous glint on her eyes. She looks more approachable than Riley but people will bound to get nervous if they get too close.
With Reynalyn's green eyes that seem to always have a playful touch and her black hair like a crow's feather. She attracts many women with her charms like bees in the honey.
Riley try to sit up and Reynalyn support her and handed her a glass of water. Riley gratefully drinks it.
"You are going to vacation in France!"
Before Riley could retort, Reynalyn added.
"No BUTS! I'll take care of the company and you go relaxed for 3 months!"
Riley almost choke on her saliva when she heard her beast friend declare 3 months
'Seriously?! 3 months?!! As if I could do that!' Riley inwardly thought
Riley is a workaholic through and through. She loves her work but sometimes she overdone it and forgot to eat and rest.
Riley Whyte, 27 years old and had no lover since birth but she doesn't mind spending the rest of her life with herself. Though many throw themselves at her, she was never interested, never move. She never felt what it was like to love people romantically.
She also doesn't want to respond with half-baked feelings and can not casually say 'I love you' to anyone. In Riley's perspective, the word 'I love you' is a sacred word that couldn't be said casually. Unlike a certain someone who can't even remember her first kiss, first s*x, and the first-person she said her 'I love you'.
"3 months is too long. 3 days is enough rest for me" Riley calmly said in her usual indifferent voice that seem to carry a hint of frostiness
"NO!! Too short! Look at yourself, lying in the hospital bed because of overwork! You need more rest, just leave the company to
me"
Reynalyn said in a rather helpless tone. Reynalyn knows her best friend always gets restless when she had nothing to do and always loves to bury herself in her work but too much work can hurt her body and Reynalyn doesn't like seeing her friend in a hospital bed.
"2 months," Reynalyn said but Riley shook her head and said.
"1 week"
"1 month"
"No, 2 weeks"
"1 month!"
"Fine! one month" Riley had no choice but to compromise. Reynalyn may look frivolous but she is especially caring and attentive to the people she cares about. Riley also knows that it is for her own good.
"It's settled then!" Reynalyn smiled and immediately book a ticket to France. Why France? It is because France suits Riley's tastes and enjoyments.
France encompasses medieval cities, alpine villages, and Mediterranean beaches. Paris, its capital, is also famed for its fashion houses, classical art museums including the Louvre, and monuments like the Eiffel Tower. The country is also renowned for its wines and sophisticated cuisine. There are also the Lascaux's ancient cave drawings, Lyon's Roman theater and the vast Palace of Versailles attest to its rich history.

White soft cotton clouds can be seen outside the window and the buildings, houses, and trees look particularly small from Riley's perspective.
Soon after, the flight attendant's voice resounded in the whole airplane.
「Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts. We are about to land in France」
As the Boeing slowed down considerably, it glided from one end of the runway to the other. With so many planes landing, it was difficult to keep track of that one plane continuously. Sometimes it disappeared and then appeared from a fleet of airplanes. Many maneuvers later, it took that one final turn and started moving towards the airport terminal, towards the departures side. By now, the speed had reduced to a crawl. A man dressed in an orange work vest guided the plane to its rightful spot, vigorously signaling with the lighted batons he held in his hands.
Meanwhile, As the plane travels down the runway, the passengers feel small bumps caused by the runway surface and the runway centerline lights. The passenger also hears and feels a slight vibration from the plane's wheels as they spin up to speed and got an illusion that the plane is climbing too steeply. After landing safely, the attendants' voice is heard again.
「Ladies and gentlemen, Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport welcomes you to Paris. The local time is 10:00 am 」
The passengers slowly got off the sit and out of the airplane. Riley stands up and also get off the plane. She steps on the ground, and looks around.
The airport terminal is a very busy place. With many passengers coming in and many others leaving. There is a constant movement of both people and planes. After clearing the security check, the passengers head to the waiting area. Many enjoy looking through the glass, to watch planes land and take off. It was like a magical scene for children.
Riley walks at the airport terminal and many people turn to take a glance at the beauty who is more beautiful than internet celebrities. Riley ignore the eyes of the people around her and went back to her business. She walks outside the airport and found a taxi then stated the name of the hotel she researched beforehand then the taxi drove.
Riley watch the rapidly changing scenery outside the taxi's window and mutter to herself in a small voice "And, Here I am" followed by a sigh.
