"Is there something bothering you?"Sena gasped in surprise when Deon suddenly touched her shoulder, making her mind that was wandering elsewhere return to its place “You seem to be thinking about something difficult. Is there anything I can help you with?”Sena just smiled and shook her head, indicating to Deon that she was fine. She then started again to arrange the items that she would display in her store. Actually Deon is sure that there is something Sena is currently thinking about. He might not have spent much time with Sena (due to her leaving the country after graduating from high school) but he could easily guess her feelings from the look on her face.Unlike Dira, who always openly expresses her feelings, Sena is just the opposite. Sene often hides her true feelings. Sena is the type of person who prefers to fight with her problems alone, get hurt alone, then shut herself off from the outside world.Suddenly Deon remembered her first meeting with Sena. Actually there was n
Huh?Sena just gaped at Aunt Marrie's strange behavior. To be honest she was shocked, very, very shocked! She didn't expect that the day would come when this haughty woman would humble herself and beg Sena. Perhaps thinking that Sena's silence was a refusal, Aunt Marrie panicked even more. She hugged Sena's legs while speaking in a shaky voice.“I beg you, save our Wendy! Save her!”Aunt Marrie, who touched her leg roughly, made Sena, who was still in a state of shock, flinch in surprise. She quickly pushed Aunt Marrie's hands off her feet and took a few steps to keep their distance. Even though Aunt Marrie's current condition looked very sad, for Sena, whose heart had already turned cold towards this evil woman, she didn't feel anything at all. Well, actually Sena was a bit surprised. If the feeling Sena meant was sadness or sympathy, of course that would be impossible. But she was a bit surprised, because she didn't feel the emotion she always imagined she would have if this evil wo
"What?! Oh, God! I'm sure that woman must be crazy!”Dira hit the table in front of her so hard that the beer cans on the table fell. Her breath hitched with anger, although a few moments later she immediately bowed to all the tavern patrons who were staring straight at her. She quickly cleared the table which had been soaked with spilled beer. Then after that she sat back down and looked at Sena who was sit in front of her. That girl just drank the beer in her hand with graceful movements, so calm, as if nothing had happened to her. Anyone who saw them at this time, would think that Dira was the one who had a problem.“Urrgh! That woman really makes my anger boil!”"You know Sen, I've always found your calm to be a scary thing."Dira said while opening her third can of beer, then started drinking it until it was half left. Yes, Sena's composure has always been what Dira feared the most. That calm demeanor is like a calm river but in fact it has a swift current beneath it and is ready
At that time, Dira did not know the woman's true identity. She only knew that woman was a very rude woman. Just from the eyes of the two of them alone, Dira could immediately tell that they hated each other. When she saw what happened in front of her, of course Dira wanted to step forward and stop the woman who seemed to intend to slap Sena again. But, Sena who suddenly spoke made Dira stop her steps.“Now you might be able to act this arrogant-”Sena then stood up and looked at that woman. Her eyes that were originally filled with anger now returned to being cold, like her usual gaze."But, I promise, one day you will kneel and beg before me-"Dira could see Sena walking towards the woman and whispering something. It's just that she couldn't hear what Sena was whispering. But it seems what Sena said made the woman very upset. Again, she raised her hand high, as if ready to slap Sena with full force. But this time, Sena caught that woman's hand before it could touch her cheek. Sena gr
Sena stared at her reflection in the mirror. Her face was adorned with light make-up. She wears a salmon-colored dress that made her skin tone look fresh. This knee-length dress is a dress that is one of the collections in her store. There was a reason why she gave the best performance today. She wants to show the Walters family that she is an elegant woman, as well as to introduce her profession to the Walters family. Considering the Walters family is a family with influence, there's nothing wrong with her building connections to develop her bussiness, right?“Stop staring the mirror and come out immediately!”Sena glanced towards the bedroom door from the corner of her eye. There stood Aunt Marrie looking impatient. Sena could only click her tongue, amazed at how quickly Aunt Marrie's demeanor had changed. Even though until this morning, she was still on her knees and begging Sena to accept the Walters family's proposal.“Hhh-”Sena exhaled, then turned her body and walked over to A
Moments earlier...Sena stretched her aching body after facing days that suddenly turned into like a roller coaster. Even though the only thing on Sena's mind when she returned to her country was to start a business. And the most surprising thing is, Sena thought, she will not marry for a long time. But, who would have thought that in a few days she would officially become a bride? Even though everything was only on paper, it was still a shock for her!Her eyes glanced at the entire store that has not been filled with many items. Most of the clothes she sells are clothes she designed while she was in Paris. A small smile appeared on her face as she remembered one of the conditions she had said to the Walters family, which was to promote her store by making the clothes in her shop their official brand."Yeah, it's fine to sacrifice a little right?"Sena muttered under her breath while patting her chest to get rid of the nervous feeling in her chest. Every now and then her eyes glanced
“Why are you just silent? Didn't you say you'd save me?"Dannie asked Sena who was still frozen in her place. But Sena was still silent and did not say anything. It seemed the girl was too shocked that she couldn't answer Dannie's question, even though almost five minutes had passed."Huft, not fun-"Dannie lay down again and grumbled in a lazy voice,"Though I thought you would at least scream because I suddenly woke up.."Even though Dannie was ready to act in a coma again if this girl screamed and called the guards outside. He had already imagined how nice it would be to see the girl's frightened and confused face when the guards came in and saw that Dannie was still lying down as usual. Imagining the girl's panicked face as she explained what happened to the guards. But sadly, those guards definitely wouldn't believe her."You.. are awake?"After a long silence, Sena finally spoke. With quick steps she walked over to Dannie's bed. The shocked expression on her face immediately tur
Even without having to look at it, Sena could already tell that the thing that touched her neck was a knife. She shuddered when she heard the man's voice. Was she going to die in vain like this? She hasn't even done anything yet! She hasn't achieved her dreams! She had yet to repay Aunt Marrie for all the bad treatment she and her mother had suffered. She hasn't done anything, she hasn't done anything..."Sorry miss, but we have to end your life here .."The next second Sena could only wince as pain overcame her body. But the pain wasn't coming from her neck, but from her hand which was cut by the knife as she grabbed the man's hand before slamming him hard on the floor. Thankfully while in Paris, she took many martial arts classes. She used to learn it to deal with the bullies who bullied her when she first moved to Paris.Sena could hear the man's whimpering as he tried to get up and pick up the knife that had fallen from his hand. He seemed intent on attacking Sena again. But, befo
