When Yesterday Came Back のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

Ursula walked closer to Eduardo, held her grandfather’s hand, and said, “Grandpa, stop lying to me just because you’re so disappointed in me!” Eduardo could not help but sigh. “Why would I lie to you if what I’m saying is true?” Ursula froze in shock. She could hardly believe that the perfumer she had always dreamed of meeting was actually Alia. She had admired and idolized Rafflesia from the very first time she smelled her unique, one-of-a-kind perfume. When she learned that Rafflesia was her grandfather’s only disciple and a perfumer working exclusively at Anderson Fragrance, she had been overjoyed. She begged Eduardo countless times to let her meet Rafflesia in person—but he always told her that Rafflesia wished to remain private and did not want to meet anyone personally. She turned to Alia, her face still frozen in shock. She had imagined countless times how she would react if she ever met Rafflesia—but this was nothing like what she had envisioned. Her idol was her frie

Little did Eduardo expect that someone—an ordinary orphaned little girl—would be the one to resolve his concerns. Seeing young Alia immerse herself in reading and learning from the notes written in his notebook, he decided to teach her. At first, he did not expect much from her, but the little girl surprised him every day. She was a fast learner—quick-witted and attentive to every nag and lesson. Despite his strictness, young Alia listened well and never complained. From that point on, he grew immensely proud of her. To teach and discover a hidden gem like Alia was a rare blessing. He was so proud that he was ready to boast about her to the world when her first perfume creation became a huge hit upon its release in the market. “I wanted to introduce Alia as my successor and even adopt her as my granddaughter, but this little girl refused me,” he said, a hint of hurt in his voice. Alia held Eduardo’s hand, comforting him. “I already told you before, old man. I’m not into fam

As soon as Alia opened the door, she was surprise to see the two siblings, Ursula and Caspian, inside the private room.The siblings sat side by side at the round table while Knight sat one chair apart from them and his assistant Philip is standing behind his boss.Her gaze shifted from them, each one giving them a look. Her curiosity couldn't be contain that she questioned the two."Why is Mr. and Ms. Anderson here?" she asked, tilting her head. Her gaze shifted to Knight. "Aren't we here to talk about business?"Knight's stern and serious expression didn't change. He explained. "They insisted to come with me when they find out I'll be meeting with you.""Why would they—"She didn't get to finish her sentence when Caspian interrupted her."Ms. Morvane, let us explain first. I know you have a grudge against us siblings but please, we did not seek to meet you with the intention to harm nor insult you like we did last night," Caspian explained.Ursula butted in. "That's right, Alia! We

The disgust on Alia’s face was unmistakable as she looked at Rhea.“Get away from me!” she snapped.“Alia, why are you—ahhhh!”Rhea crashed to the floor with a loud thud after Alia’s harsh kick. The blow landed hard on her abdomen, sending her sprawling, her head and back slamming against the cold floor. She groaned in agony, clutching her stomach as tears streamed down her face. Earlier, her crying had been fake—but now, the pain was real.The moment it happened, Jasper rushed to Rhea’s side, once again playing the role of her prized savior, her shining armor. It was a scene Alia had witnessed far too many times.Every time he rushed to protect Rhea whenever she played the victim, a wave of inexplicable disgust twisted inside Alia.Whenever I see him saving her like this, it always makes me jealous, she thought bitterly. I really want to slap myself for ever feeling that way.Jasper quickly helped Rhea up, holding her tightly in his arms.“Are you alright?” he asked, his voice thick

Knight looked at Alia as she laughed, while the two siblings exchanged glances before turning their attention back to her.The tension in the room gradually disappeared. Soon, they continued eating, chatting comfortably as if nothing had happened. Ursula kept talking animatedly to Alia, who listened attentively while taking small bites of her food. Knight, as always, only spoke when he was asked.Before leaving the private room, they made sure to finalize the agreement regarding their collaboration.Ursula then turned to Alia. “Why don’t you join us?”Alia shook her head with a small smile. “I’m fine. I drove here anyway.”“Are you sure?” Ursula insisted.Alia nodded.“Alright,” Ursula said as she got inside the car. “But remember your promise—I’ll be the first one to try your new creation, okay? Bye!” she added before closing the car door. Caspian, acting as the driver, started the engine and drove away.Alia waved goodbye before turning around——and immediately bumped into someone.
