Good luck everyone!!! WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!!! *w* ]
Han Luo was simply talking about random topics when she began to tell Mo Yuan how exciting their new performance would be.
"Mary is so cool. She is hardworking and kind. She doesn't lose her temper even if we make a few mistakes," she spoke with admiration.
"That's because it's normal to make mistakes. If she gets angry for such a small matter, she would be disqualified as a teacher," Mo Yuan grumpily stated. He didn't like it when she admired others in front of him but he couldn't tell her that.
At that time, Han Luo remembered something and told him, "Come to think of it, Mary once saw me with Rose and she looked like she had seen a ghost. Honestly, I felt puzzled by her action. Rose was confused too.
Benjamin abruptly pressed the paddle and stopped the car beside a park. It was a good thing that there was a parking lot nearby or he would've stopped the car in the middle of the road.
He turned around and looked straight at her. He carefully asked her, "What did you say?"
Han Luo's face paled when he harshly braked the car. She was clinging to Mo Yuan in fear. Her body was slightly trembling.
She had car phobia after the car accident and so everyone drove the car carefully whenever she was in the car.
Mo Yuan glared at Benjamin noticing that Han Luo was scared. "Be careful when you drive," he warned him with a grave expression.
Benjamin looked apologetic. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be rough. Miss Han, can you please tell me when that happened? When Mary saw Rose with you?"
Han Luo overcame her fear and narrated shortly, "…Umm… a couple of days ago when you picked us up from the grocery store. Before you called Rose, we met Mary. She didn't look like herself. She even asked how Rose was alive and it made me wonder if Rose had any kind of accident."
"Why didn't you tell me before?" Benjamin gritted his teeth. He was there back then.
"How would she know whom to talk to about someone else's business. She doesn't know the relationship between you and Rose," Mo Yuan bickered. He was genuinely pissed at Benjamin.
"I know I'm crossing my boundary but please forgive me. I'll drive you home right away," Benjamin started the engine and drove to Mo Yuan's house. He realized that if he asked any more questions regarding that, Mo Yuan wouldn't let him off.
Han Luo stayed for the night. However, Mo Yuan didn't find her anywhere after lunch. So, he went to look for her thinking she was playing with her bunnies, Yin and Yan.
However, he found her right beside the small lake talking merrily with Rose.
"So, Rose, I was wondering if you ever had a love rival." Han Luo finally went to the main point.
"…" Mo Yuan thought, 'I knew it. No wonder she wanted to stay here.'
His thoughts weren't unreasonable. Ever since they were being intimate, Han Luo hardly stayed over at his house. She would have had lunch and then leave. She never stayed for dinner unless Ma Rui requested it.
He knew that she was avoiding staying at his house at night because things might turn out in the wrong way. He also appreciated her work since it was also hard for him to control his emotions and hormones.
However, surprisingly she stayed home and also told Martha to clean up her room since she would stay here overnight.
Mo Yuan was having a suspicion but he said not a single word. Now, he had no doubts.
"I don't recall falling in love with someone let alone a love rival. Why are you asking this all of a sudden, Luo?" Rose was perplexed but she was relaxed around Han Luo.
Han Luo was her usual self. She playfully replied, "I was just thinking. You never tell me anything about yourself. Oh, by the way, I was thinking if you ever had an accident before?"
Rose hesitated before answering, "…Accident… yeah I had an accident and my memories were completely wiped out. The doctor said that I needed to check up with a good doctor who could help me to regain my memories but it would be highly expensive. I don't have enough money for the treatment. That's why I never went to look for a good doctor."
'Ah, so that's why…' Han Luo felt sympathy for her. "It must have been very hard for you? Don't you have family members?"
Rose shook her head and told her, "Not really. I was an orphan and was raised in an orphanage."
Han Luo curiously asked, "How did you know that?"
Rose described, "I was working in a restaurant as a chef when one day Master Mo came with a bunch of information regarding my past. After that, he sincerely asked me to work for him. He went to the orphanage and checked by myself if what he said was true."
She added, "Although I couldn't remember the nuns who raised me, I could still feel their affection for me. They even showed me my pictures. I never thought that I would find my home. He is a generous man."
Han Luo smiled. She couldn't agree more. "Indeed, and so is mom. Although I have a father, I'm still more like an orphan but mom and dad never let me realize that."
"That's right, we are both lucky," Rose agreed. "To tell you the truth, I thought that he was scheming something since he approached me. I was so scared. I even called the police. He was so troubled back then. When I was proved wrong, I apologized to him."
Both of them giggled for a long time.
Han Luo finally said, "It's normal to think that way.. I'm glad that you found your home. So, what's up with Ben and you? Are you guys going out?"
