Chapter 257 - Girls Identity (1/2)
A few days have passed since the incident. Elizabeth continued her day feeling at a loss for no reason. She continued to ponder as to why she felt like she has forgotten something important. But everyone kept assuring her that she hasn't so she didn't bother about it.
Professor Petrovich never returned to Imperial Garden Plaza after leaving nor have they heard from Yun Shen as well.
Everyone put what happened in the back of their head forgetting it ever happened.
”Baby, what's wrong?” Lady Zhao said, noticing the girl was in a daze staring at an empty canvas.
Elizabeth was startled to see her mother suddenly appeared from behind her. ”Mom, what are you doing here?”
”Lizzy, are you sure you're fine?” Lady Zhao repeated her question.
”I am… why?”
”Elizabeth, be honest, what's wrong?”
Elizabeth felt uncomforted under her mother's intense gaze. She wonders what she could have possibly done that her mother even called her by her name.
'Did my mother just called me Elizabeth, this just means she really angry.'
”Mother, I'm fine, really.” She responded clueless as to why her mother was upset with her.
”Elizabeth, if you're fine how come you've forgotten will be doing the first shoot of the movie today.” Lady Zhao bluntly told her realizing something was not right with her daughter.
”Wait... Wait?”
Elizabeth hastily grabs her phone, it surprises her to see the vast amount of messages and missed calls.
”Mother?” she said with such a confused expression.
”Baby, what's wrong? You've been visiting the studio for days yet you have done nothing…”
Elizabeth looked at the empty canvas in front of her, she indeed has not painted anything at all. She ponders as to why she isn't herself lately. Her mind seems empty, but why does her heart feel so heavy.
”Baby, tell me the truth, what's wrong?” Lady Zhao worriedly embraces her tightly.
”Mother, to be honest, I don't know…” she sighed and added, ”We should get going, I still need to go to the company.”
Elizabeth released herself from her mother's embrace. Lady Zhao's heart ache to see the girl so distress, leaving her to wonder what bothering her lately.
...
”Li Zi?”
It startled Elizabeth when someone suddenly grabs hold of her arms.
”Bro Wang, I'm sorry…”
”I was so worried, you didn't answer any of my calls last night and this morning. I thought something bad happened to you…”
”I'm fine, I was just preoccupied.”
”I see, Director Mo and his father are here already. They have been waiting for you.”
Wang Ji and Elizabeth headed to the room where everyone was waiting for them. Everyone was over the moon to see Li Zi, they started greeting her and asking her how she's been.
”Director Mo, Grandpa Mo, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting…”
”It's alright, Weiwei explained everything.” Elder Director Mo said.
”Li Zi are you sure you want to start now?” Director Mo added.
”We've already put the schedule behind last time because of me, I don't see any reason for us to postpone it further. Plus, I wasn't badly hurt.”
”If you say so…” Director Mo didn't argue further.
