Chapter 3 Returning after Seven Years

The following morning, at the break of dawn…

The first light of day seeped through the window and into the room. Lyla Lowe frowned a little before she opened her eyes.

When her consciousness came to and she realized there was a man sleeping next to her, she shot into a sitting position immediately.

She wanted to just slam her head into the wall!

‘GAH! Lyla Lowe! How could you do this?!’

Not wanting to waste a second more, she got up from the bed. She took her clothes and put them on in a haste. As soon as she was dressed, she took off towards the door and was about to leave when she stopped after a few steps.

She turned around to see the man sleeping on the bed. He was half naked. His skin, wheat-colored, was completely exposed to the air as he slept like a baby.

She was hesitating. Be it as if may, it was still her first time and she should, at the very least, have a look at him…

She took a few steps towards him as the thought played in her mind.

However, just when she took a few steps, the sound of a doorbell rang from outside.

She jumped in surprise and when she listened closely to the sound, she realized it came from the room next to hers.

Afraid the man might wake up, she left the room in huff like she was escaping…

…

Six years later, in Alpine City’s airport, Lyla Lowe returned home from overseas.

She wore a pair of white, ankle-length pants. The warm-yellow colored chiffon top was just long enough to cover her behind. Her hair, long and slightly curly, rested on her shoulders. When she walked, she became a sight to behold in the airport.

However, the two little kids behind her were the real eye-catchers.

“How beautiful! How cute little children!”

“Oh my! You’re right! They’re so cute!”

Many in the airport expressed their fondness out loud.

“Hansel, I’m tired…” cried Gretel, pretending to be in trouble as she pouted. The entire act was so cute that it could literally send one squirming.

Gretel turned to her and made an annoyed sigh.
