The peaceful smell of freshness was the first thing that Lyca noticed the moment she walked out of the hall. She found a balcony away from the crowd and chose to hide— stay here. Spring is coming… or maybe it's already here.
She eyed the trees around the building, its long limbs stretched upwards towards the skies as if worshiping it. Then a smile appeared on her face. Lyca considered these alone moments the best. The quietness, the silent breeze, and the darkness. It made her feel that she belonged.
Of course, this would be a hundred times better if she could sit somewhere and have a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.
"A woman's loyalty is tested when her man has nothing. A man's loyalty is tested when he has everything."
Lyca didn't have to turn around to know that it was Chu Munan. She continued staring at the trees, ignoring the man who stood next to her.
"You are alone while your husband is talking to a lot of clients. Why is that?"
Goal: Another 5 chapters. I hope I can do it.
