Inside the Diamond Garden, and in the living room, Catherine was browsing through the comments online. She turned her head to look at Celine who was just hanging up a call. Seeing the smile on Celine's face, Catherine said,'Chioma's is causing commotion online about stealing their nation's husband...'
Celine raised her eyebrows. 'Nation's husband?' She was wearing a bright patterned dress.
Catherine nodded. 'Yea...It’s a Korean term awarded to a man who is perfect in the eyes of the public... an idea husband.'
'Ooh...I see,' Celine paused. 'Anyone is free to say whatever they want to say. Chioma's the only woman that makes my cousin happy. He wouldn't even look at long legs, curvy body or beautiful face...he simply loves Chioma's.'
'Actually, their jealousy is not hate but rather admiration...' Catherine smiled. 'I know what type of person your cousin is. He has ultimate power and wouldn't look at anyone to do what he wants...he is just like your big brother Felix,' she giggled. 'If I have such an opportunity in the future, I will pick a few nice photos to decorate my love nest...' She was looking beautiful in her white gown with black embroidery.
At that moment, Felix was walking down the stairs. Suddenly, he stepped on something at the stairs. Looking down, he saw that it was a handkerchief. He immediately bent down to pick it up and touched the fabric. It was extremely soft and silky, with plain flower embroidery on the lower right corner. Felix curled his lips, then looked towards the living room and saw Catherine happily chatting with Celine.
'Celine...' Felix called and both girls looked towards Felix who was walking over to them, holding a handkerchief and a briefcase.
Catherine smiled, looking rapturously at Felix who was blessed with delicate facial features and was extraordinarily handsome.
'Who owns this?' Felix asked Celine but his gaze was on Catherine. 'Did you drop it at the stairs?'
'It belongs to Catherine,' Celine smiled, glancing at Catherine. 'Catherine it's yours, right?'
It was then that Catherine returned to her senses. 'Big brother, I am sorry... I didn't know where I dropped it but I am glad that you found it. Thanks.'Catherine spoke with a smile. Only the sincerity of her smile was as though she had gathered the beauty of the whole world.
Felix handed her back the handkerchief which smelled of orchid, but didn't say anything. No one knew what he was thinking. Then, he turned away and left for work.
Celine turned to look at Catherine, shrugging her shoulders.
