Mysterious Little Wife

True, people were constantly changing. 

Their eyes, however, were invariable.

Sam's eyes had been imprinted on her mind ever since that night.

Thus, despite the mask he now wore, she recognized him right away.

"Hurry up!" Asa yelled to Lacey as he blocked the lift from closing.

Meanwhile, a slender figure had already taken the lead in walking in.

His tall stature and cold demeanor deterred anyone from approaching him. 

As a result, the lift looked quite empty.

Lacey quickly snapped back to her senses. Then she coughed to muffle her panicked voice. "Oh, I almost forgot. I've got something to do. I—"

"Hurry up! The lift will be closing soon!" Asa didn't hear her. Noticing her daze, he stormed over to Lacey and dragged her in by the wrist.

The lift shut off in an instant.

Lacey's breathing seemed to have stopped at that point.

What was going on?

Why was she in the lift?

She was just about to make an excuse to leave!

Despite her grumblings, the lift closed as she looked on in bewilderment and confusion.

There were only a few people in the lift.

Even so, she felt so overwhelmed that she couldn't even breathe.
