Chapter 6 She is still hur (1/2)
”Is it true that you had to quit because you're pregnant with Minister Li's child?” another asked before Ryn could answer the first question.
Mika's face changed. She did hear the rumour but because she was too sad when her brother and Ryn broke up, she did not try to investigate who spread the lie and tell the true story but her stubborn big brother did not react at all. It was frustrating when both persons she loved so much being their stubborn self.
”Minister Li's child?” Ryn's calm voice made everyone kept quiet. ”I'm sorry. This is the first time I've heard about it. Can you tell me the whole story?”
The reporters exchanged look.
”I think I only saw him once during the flower blossom show and only from far. If that is what you meant by having relationship, I guess I was having relationship with everyone I have met during all my shows.”
They were taken back with her answer. This girl in front of her did not look like Catherine two years ago. The model two years ago were soft spoken, full of smile and a bit naïve. The girl in front of them although was smiling politely but she was more reserved and matured.
”To answer the question, I just want to have a short break after working non-stop. Now I am ready to work again and I hope everyone will support me and also Full Moon. There is no pregnancy involved whatsoever. Thank you.”
”Why do you choose to represent this brand? As far as I know you've never endorsed any brand before,” another reporter asked when he realized Ryn had no intention to answer the question about the scandal.
”I love the style. The dress I am wearing right now, Red Carnation, not only girly but very comfortable. It is also practical with the pockets.” Ryn stepped forward. She turned around slowly to show off the dress.
She returned back to her seat and answered few more questions. This time the reporters focussed on the brand and the upcoming fashion show.
Ryn followed Mika to her office. She chose the white fluffy couch to sit and took off her heels. Mika locked the door.
”I can't believe they asked you about the scandal.”
”I never heard about it. Luckily I remembered that show because it was the last show with Michele.”
”And that, right?”
Ryn's face changed.
Mika quickly took Ryn's hands.
”It was a misunderstanding, Ryn. He explained everything to me.”
”I don't want to talk about it.”
”Ryn~”
”Can we talk about something else, please?”
”But…”
”Mika, please. Or I'll leave.”
Mika pursed her lips a bit. She wanted so much, desperately wanted her best friend to reconcile with her big brother but she guessed the pain her big brother caused Ryn was still there. The Ryn she knew loved her brother so much and would do anything for him. But that day everything changed.
Even her brother changed.
”Are you happy now?” Mika asked slowly.
”I still live. And for these two years I've learned to be a normal person.”
”I just want you to be happy.”
”Can we go back to business? The show will be in two months, right? With a new collection?”
Mika moved to her table and took out her planner. ”Yes. In two more months. You'll take the first and the last.”
”Only clothes or with jewelry as well?”
Apart from clothes, Honey Moon also produced jewelleries.
