Chapter 40: Dream Of
Keira was looking at the photos of a woman on her mobile phone sent to her by John.
She shook her head and said, "Tsk, tsk. I won’t let you bug my man. You left him and how dare you co back!"
The woman was three years younger than Zach and she looked pretty on the pictures. Keira sighed, she knew she had more advantages, compared to that woman, anyway, she couldn’t help but beco envious of the ti Zach and that woman had spent together.
They were childhood sweethearts. And Keira was a big fan of that kind of love stories since childhood.
Suddenly, her face beca sour.
"I hate childhood sweetheart stories now!" She exclaid irritably.
She would deal with Zach’s EX later because she knew that the woman wouldn’t dare to et Zach for now.
Keira then looked at the report about Old Madam Liu.
"Hmm... very impressive." She murmured, seeing all the achievents of Old Madam Liu.
"Ohh, what’s this?" She gasped at the sudden thought that crossed her mind while she was reading Old Madam Liu’s profile.
She felt that she would really have a hard ti dealing with Old Madam, but of course, it’s not impossible.
She had to find the weakness of the Lius.
"Oh please, I don’t want a nightmare tonight..." she said and tried to erase the images of Glaring Madam Liu from her mind. Never had she seen the old lady smile even once on all photos.
She looked at Zach’s photo on her mobile phone and giggled.
"I bet you always dream of ," she mumbled before she closed her eyes.
....
Zach occupied himself with evening work-outs since he couldn’t sleep at all.
He sighed as sweat ran down all over his lean body.
Then he simpered. This was the first ti he got so distracted because of a woman.
"Maybe, there’s no need to worry? I’m sure she did not an that, did she? She’s drunk at that ti, so it’s probably the alcohol..." he murmured then he unconsciously touched his lips.
That was absolutely not his first kiss, so how co he was feeling like this. He cleaned up and changed to sleep. He took the pills Torin had given and hopefully, he would be able to sleep normally soon.
But he got startled by his doorbell. It was his sister Lyra so he quickly opened the door.
"Big Bro!" Lyra excitedly hugged Zach.
"Wait, why didn’t you call , Lyra, so I could have picked you up at the dorm," he asked and helped Lyra with her baggage.
"I wanted to surprise you. After the exam, I don’t want to go ho yet. So let
stay here for a while, okay?" Lyra said smiling and sat on the sofa.
Zach smiled and said, "As well you can live here so stop asking permission."
"But you should live alone and bring a woman to your ho soon..." Lyra teased and her eyes widened when her brother blushed all of a sudden.
"What the heck? You have a girlfriend already, Big Bro?" She asked in shock.
Then, she smiled happily and added, "Oh my, Big Bro, I will be the happiest single person alive once you have a woman and get over that bitch!"
"Lyra, watch your language!" Zach scolded.
Lyra pouted her lips and replied, "What? It’s true that woman is a bitch! She doesn’t deserve even the slightest, tiniest, precious ti of yours. I will even pull her hair until she gets bald once I see her!"
Lyra was burning in anger upon rembering how her brother suffered because of that bitch!
She sighed and imdiately changed the topic.
"So, tell
who’s your new woman?" Lyra asked once more and stared at Zach.
Zach knew his sister very well and that she would not stop until she heard sothing from him, so he let out a long sigh and said, "There’s no one, Lyra. It’s just a girl who recently told
that she likes . That’s all."
"Who is she?" Lyra asked with sparkling eyes, indicating that she was too excited to hear the whole story.
Zach cursed inwardly. He couldn’t hide anything from Lyra at all. She was too good at reading people and he was not an exception.
So, he told her what happened.
"Oh my God, Big Bro! You’re in big trouble! Field Marshal Chan’s daughter is a spoiled brat. She always gets what she wants by all ans... Oh, I’m not sure If I should congratulate you or say good luck, Big Bro. So let
do both. Congratulations and Goodluck." Lyra warned and laughed out hard as she stood up.
"Wait, how did you know about her? And when did you start to believe in hearsays?" Zach asked with an arched brow.
"I’m already sleepy, Big Bro. Let
tell it to you tomorrow because it’s just not a hearsay. I literally witnessed how she was making precise plans to get what she wanted... and she’s really good. Honestly, I like her because she’s not pretentious at all, unlike others, especially that bitch Thea!" Lyra explained and walked directly to one of Zach’s spare rooms where she often slept.
Zach was left in terror...
"Am I really in big trouble?" He murmured, as his eyes beca heavy because the sleeping pill already was taking effect.
