Chapter 563 - Join me for the fun? (1/2)

Ryn just finished her meal when someone rang the bell. With a frown, she left the dirty dishes to open the door.

Her expression did not change when she saw who the visitor was.

”Ryn~” A person jumped into her and Ryn automatically opened her arms to catch the person. She even staggered a few steps back but did not fall as she stabilized herself. The corner of her eyes twitched as she released the person.

Only one person would jump to her without any warning. It was Mika.

”How are you? Do you miss me?” Mika asked hurriedly when she was no longer in Ryn's arms.

”I just had my brunch,” Ryn replied as she turned around.

She went back to the dining table to clean everything and left Mika to enter the house happily. Mika treated this house as her own so Ryn did not feel anything wrong leaving abruptly.

”You're still taking a break from work?” Ryn asked as her hands got busy washing the dishes. She ignored her best friend who was mumbling while checking the cabinet. ”Mika?”

Mika turned to look at Ryn with her lips pursed a bit. ”You really should check the food in here. Only one can left.”

”I'll do the shopping later after I return from my gig,” Ryn replied before repeated back her question.

”I'll return back tomorrow. Today I have to go to an event,” Mika replied. She rubbed her hands and went to open the refrigerator to take out a bottle of water. She poured it into a glass and sipped it happily.

Ryn did not bother asking how Mika was with her in-laws. Seeing how good Jason and his family treated Mika, she had no doubt Mika was being spoiled when she went to the main house. That was why she only asked about her work. Surely Mika would not quit after married.

She put the clean dishes back in their place and wiped her hands with a clean cloth. She looked at Mika who was leaning against the counter, looking at her.

”What?”

”Join me for the fun?”

”What fun?” Ryn walked to the living room with Mika following behind. Even when she sat on the couch, her best friend quickly sat beside her, even going as far as wrapping her arms around Ryn.

”I will be bored going there alone. I want you to accompany me watching smelly horses.”

”Don't tell me the event is a horse race?” Ryn asked with a frown.

”It's a yearly event by Maxwell Corp. I'm representing both companies,” Mika said unhappily. ”Jeremy did not want to go again this year and father was busy with the company to go.”

”I've never gone to such an event before so I don't think I can...”

”Ryn, you must come with me. Don't let me go there alone. I will be bored to tears,” Mika cried.

”Jason's not coming with you?”

”He has to stay at the company. The anniversary for the company is getting closer and he needs to take care of everything.”

”I'm not sure, Mika. I mean... I've never been to this kind of event before. I don't think that I...”

”Ryn, please accompany me. You're my best friend, right? You must help me.”

”I...”

”Besides, you must get used to this event. Once you officially join the family, you have to go to all the events,” Mika pointed out cheekily.
