219 What If’s

Two days later.

The smell of the sea was the first thing that filled her nose the moment she went out of the carriage. She squinted, her hand immediately covered her eyes from the sun before she ran towards the tree by the beach. Lucinia let out a sigh when the moment she felt the shade of the tree covered her from the sun. "Why do we have to come here during the noon?" she asked Mo Li who was leaning against the tree, unafraid that the wet bark would mark his all-white clothes.

She pressed her lips together, unamused at the fact that he was no longer there when she woke up. She had been so afraid. She immediately panicked when she didn't hear him answer. She honestly thought that he left her. Just when she was about to start crying, she saw a note that he left.

He wanted her to come to this part of the property.
