章節 13: Mentally challenged

Seraphina was finally discharged. Seraphina wasn't surprised that Chairman Yue wasn't the one who picked her up. Seeing a tall man with a broad shoulder wearing a formal suit, her eyes lit up.

"Young Miss, Chairman had an emergency so he flew back in country c last night. He said he'll see you home." The man's voice was flat and lack of emotion as if he was a programmed robot. Seraphina blood boils as she imagine her old man flying back to country c at the middle of the night. She was itching to 'take care' of those ingrates in the Yue family. Seraphina was distracted as she glanced at the man standing before.

"What's your name again?" Seraphina asked as she arched her brow.

"Ace." Hearing his answer Seraphina burst out laughing. Ace brows twitched as he heard the girl infront of her laughed hysterically.

'She was normal moments ago what happened? Did they misinformed me? this girls problem doesn't seemed amnesia but mental issues instead?' Ace didn't speak his mind as he patiently waited for her to stop.

"Im — Im sorry. I just remembered pftt—!" Trying to stop herself from laughing but Seraphina miserably failed. She was laughing almost losing her breath as if she was watching a comedy act. Ace felt somewhat humiliated as the girl was obviously laughing at him. He looked down to check his clothes. Seeing nothing was wrong with what he's wearing, Ace subconsciously touched his face. Thinking nothing seemed wrong with his appearance. He thought,

'Maybe she was really mentally challenged.'

After a few good laughs Seraphina finally managed to say what she was saying before.

"Im sorry. I just remembered something very funny." She said as she cleared her throat. Ace patiently nod as if he understood. Seeing Ace patient attitude Seraphina giggled. She passed her small luggage to Ace.

"Wait for me outside." She said. Ace nodded as he strode outside the room. As he opened the door, Liam was already infront of her room. Ace bowed slightly at Liam before leaving.

"Congratulations." Liam sounded lively as he entered the room. He softly smile at Seraphina who was leisurely sitting at the couch at the center of the room.

"Thank you." She said.

"Are you happy?" seeing her in high spirits as he heard her laughing moments ago Liam couldn't help but asked.

"Maybe, maybe not." She honestly answered. Seraphina was somewhat delighted but she knew that the moment she would arrived at country c, the path that she was about to take would be bloody. Thus, she wanted to relished her last peaceful moments before leaving.

"You're here to see me off aren't you? Please don't send me off. I don't want to see you snot while crying. That would break your picture-perfect image." In a matter-of-factly tone she teased Liam. Liam chuckled.

"I wont."

"Eh? You wont send me off or you wont snot while crying?" Liam chuckled as he was speechless and couldn't find the right words to what he wants to say. His nervousness that he was feeling a while ago gradually dissipated.

"Both" Liam originally doesn't plan to see her off but he just found himself standing infront of her room. Before he knew it, the door was pushed opened. Thus, instead of leaving, he decided to talk to her for the last time. Though he knew that it would be hard for him. Atleast it could be added up to his beautiful memories with her.

"Ohh" Seraphina nodded as she understood his answer. She smiled at him before she spoke.

"If I could, I would live here." Seraphina said as this facility was like a mall inside a hotel so it was perfect for rich people to die in luxury. Seraphina glanced at the clock on the wall.

"It's time to go! Bye~" Seraphina stood up ready to leave but as she was about to reach the door she heard Liam spoke.

"Wait!" Seraphina turned around but was caught off guard. Seraphina was pulled by Liam and landed in his embrace. She could hear his heartbeat fasten as her head was leaning against his chest. His light perfume lingered on her nose. Liam rested his chin on head as she could feel his heavy breathing blew her hair. She didn't struggle nor pushed him away but rather hugged him back.
