My Wife Is A Gift From Heaven
Chapter 3 Who Is She
After the rain last night, the air was fresher than ever.
The dark clouds finally cleared out, giving out a mix of colors of bright blue and yellow. The wind blew, its gentle breeze moving the leaves that had fell from last night.
Admiring the view, Lena sat in the balcony with earphones on hand, enjoying the serenity of the moment.
Outside the green grasses, a graceful lady entered with a wide smile. Her posture was slender and thin like a tall willow.
A handsome man sat adjacent towards her. From the way they laughed and looked at one another, one could really feel the love that radiated from them.
They must've known each other for a very long time.
"Sorry, have you waited long?" The woman had a soft voice, like one of those violins you'd hear at the orchestra. There was something so enchanting about her face that one couldn't simply look away.
Lena narrowed her eyes at the view below her, only to freeze at the sight of Cliff with another girl.
'Who is she?
Why is she with Cliff?'
She peered closer. There was so much gentleness in Cliff's gaze towards the woman, and from the way they moved closer to one another, they were already very comfortable with each other's presence.
Lena staggered up, moving down the steps. She needed to find out who the girl was!
Once she reached the first floor, she was already panting. Not being able to recover much from the rain yesterday, her condition was still weak. She leaned over the doorframe, coughing heavily.
Her face flushed red from the adrenaline that pumped in her chest as she rushed down the steps.
Upon hearing the abrupt noise, Cliff turned around, rushing over to Lena's weak body. He patted her shoulder and asked the servants to fetch some hot water for her.
Sadness flashed in the unknown woman's eyes as she moved towards them.
"Cliff," she exclaimed, plastering a smile on her face. "Is this the woman you've been talking about?
It's just like you said. She's truly very delicate.
