"How's it?" Having just met, Celine had already asked in a curious tone. Yesterday Lisle was seen losing interest in college after the incident that morning. Celine also did not feel good to ask a lot. There are so many things she wants to hear from her best friend.
Lisle entered the first class. There were no more lectures in the next hour but it was also too early to go home. The girl chose to do a college assignment. He was determined to finish it today before traveling. Celine who has a lecture schedule instead decided to skip and stalk Lisle to the place.
"The Problem with Shopia. The rumor suddenly turned cold. What has Mr Kent done?" Celine thinks rich people will have a different solution.
Lisle. "Nothing."
"No way!" Celine couldn't believe it.
Lisle just put her shoulders together. "Evening a car followed me home. But Mr. Kent told William to let it go because it's possible that those men were trying to figure out my identity. He said as a warning. Made them second-guess my relationship with Mr. Kent. So they wouldn't dare to fuck around, fuck it. Really don't do anything, do you?"
"That's all?"
"He uh." Lisle felt a little bothered by Celine. Maybe his intention to do the task will not be accomplished.
"What about the rumors?" Celine is still curious.
"I don't know. But didn't you see Shopia today?" Lisle remembered that young lady Harfey. "Did she have the same class as you today?"
"The girl did not come in. Maybe his face was still swollen from your punch yesterday" Celine said.
Lisle who heard it made a grimace.
"When are you going on your honeymoon?" celine asked considering Lisle's honeymoon plan.
"Tomorrow morning."
"I will definitely miss you" Celine said again. At the moment he feels lost.
"Surely." Lisle looked at Celine with a joking look. He will miss his friend too.
Celine sneers.
Lisle laughed seeing it. "I'll miss you too" he comforted.
"Cannot be. You'll forget me." Celine sulks. He felt in Lisle's heart there was no longer any place for him.
"You wanna come?" ask Lisle suddenly. It would be nice if there was Celine beside him. She won't just look at her husband's looks and has good reason to run away.
Celine put on a look of disgust. "You think I'm a shameless person? Maybe you could ask me to go on my honeymoon. No. gabe. You're the most ridiculous person I've ever known."
Lisle just grimaced at the rejection of her best friend. " I meant well" he lamented. "Call me if you change your mind."
"will not. Besides why would I bother a honeymooner?"
"Don't exaggerate. It's just like a regular vacation." Lisle felt unsure of her own words. Even a typical holiday for Kennard feels very special to Lisle.
"I'm lazy to call you again" said Celine remembered her call a few days ago actually received Mr. Kent. The man would have been more furious if he found an insignificant call while he was on his honeymoon. Now Celine had met the man.
"Your husband scares me." Celine grumbled without saying the cause.
"You know what?" Kennard must have said something about the call in the middle of the night, Celine thought.
Lisle nodded.
"No. He didn't scold me. But his tone was cold. Obviously he's not happy" Celine said. "It's my fault I called you in the middle of the night."
"If there's anything, you can reach me through Steve. He'll deliver your message." Lisle took her phone. "I'll send you the number."
"You sure it's okay if I call her? I'm a little shy about talking to that guy. He's like an ice sculpture." Celine remembered the assistant to Mr. Kent named Steve. "He even looked like Mr. Kent's shadow"
Lisle laughed at her best friend's comment about Steve. "Of course not. He's very kind. Believe it."
Celine watches her phone, keeping Steve's name in her contact list. He hoped he would never have a reason to call that number. Her best friend Lisle was so careless as to haphazardly give the trust person number of the president of Diamond Group.

"If you change your mind, just say it." Kennard reminds Lisle as they arrive at a small pier on the island.
In the morning they had left for the port and headed to that place by motor boat. Steve drove them up there and left after getting some instructions. He would arrange some work and replace lord lent to take care of everything as long as the president left.
Although a little nervous Lisle shook her head as well. "I really want to practice."
Kennard's lips slightly raised. He could feel the nervousness of his wife. "I hope you don't regret this decision."
Kennard helped Lisle off the ship by carrying her and still did not take her down despite being in an easy place.
A group of people dressed to look like the military welcomed their arrival. Lisle thrashed in Kennard's sling upon seeing them.
"Let me down" Lisle half-whispered. "You're embarrassing me."
Kennard lowered his blushing wife under the gaze of the group of men, dipping at the shoots of his hair at a glance. No one commented on Kennard's attitude. Of course, as they were part of the special forces professionally trained on the island. They know who their boss is. No one would dare to criticize or comment on anything Mr. Kent did.
Lisle hurried to make distance with Kennard. She was caught off guard by Kennard's treatment of her in public.
A large tall man with muscles that could even be seen from behind his clothes advanced forward. He seems to be the leader of the group.
"Master, welcome back to the island. It's been a long time since I've seen you." The man never once looked at Lisle.
Kennard just nodded at a glance. "There's Hans who always comes here. That's enough" he said, watching the men.
"I think Steve told you. I came here with my wife. He'll be training with you and I'll be watching his progress. We're only two weeks here. He only took part in some basic exercises and simple techniques. I think time's enough." Then Kennard turned to Lisle who seemed not to want to be anywhere near her husband. He looked at the girl like he was gesturing.
It was only then that the trained members who were all men stared at Lisle. And they found a girl with a height that was probably average just as they were standing nervously. Her pretty face looks red.
"Hallo, everybody. I'm Lisle. Please guide her." Lisle smiled awkwardly. His heart began to worry.
