Chereads / The Four Ladies of Doldam Street / Chapter 8 - <Chapter Seven>

Chapter 8 - <Chapter Seven>

"I need to find myself a place to live." Amelia mummered as she looked at her phone to find places to live in Seoul. Seoul was one of the biggest cities in the world that was located in the East District.

The world sad was divided into four district in the year 2340, after the fourth World War. It had been 680 years since the division and out of them there were 4 houses that were like the kings of each district, but back to the main topic, it was hard for anyone to find housing at the big cities, it was no problem if the person had money.

Smart of her to start saving secret money when she was 16, now she had enough money to help her graduate, live comfortably and still have money left. She saved it because because she knew it.

Amelia knew her fate. She was 15, when she discovered the book. She was naive to think that it was a normal book.

When she first reading it her brother made fun of her telling she was mad and was reading a blank book, but she ignored him and read it anyway.

There was a character that she knew in the book was not normal. They shared the same name, same facial features and same family. The characters was the main villainess of the book who was sent to jail for attempt to murder.

'It's just a coincidence.' she said every time the same thing happened to her in the book but she knew it wasn't.

She didn't want to take a chance, she became more distant from her parents, at the age of 17, when she was suppose to enter in the main leads lives she didn't.

She became more and more distant to her parents, too distant that she didn't even want to see their faces anymore. She started eating. She ate and ate until she couldn't and even after she couldn't she still ate and when she went to her parents for their help, they just looked at her with disgusted looks.

It affected her alot, her parents became more and more distant from her. Her life was turning into hell. She got help, the help she needed when she was 18 and now that she was 21, she was escaping from the hell also called "home".

She wasn't scared of what was going to happen of she followed the book, she was scared at what her parents thought of her.

Not any more.

Amelia no longer cared for it, she didn't want anything to do with them, she now was an orphan who had no parents in her life. She had no brother, she had no parents, she was not Amelia anymore, she was Kang Irene, an halfie.

Kang Irene's parents died when she was just 1, and she has been offered full scholarship to King Medical University, she had worked on this cover for 4 years and now she finally did it.

" Young lady, I heard you need a place to stay?" an old woman next to her seat asked.

Amelia was caught off guard. She looked beside her surprise.

"...yes?" she asked surprised.

"I have a two storey house at in Seoul that I am not using and I am renting it out," she spoke gently,

"There are apparently two girls living there, they study at King University and I just talked with a new girl who is going to live there starting next week and only one room is vacant. Would you like that?" she asked with a smile.

Amelia couldn't just trust anyone, and now that she wasn't the daughter if King Family anymore, she had to be extra careful.

The old lady was most probably in her late 50s or early 60s. She didn't have any loose skin but had some wrinkles on her foreheads and cheeks. She has the typical old woman hairstyle, which was a perm on the short hair.

"I will think about it." Ameli said with a smile. The old woman spoke in Hangul, one of the languages used in East District, she knew it because her mother used to speak in Hangul a lot and she even loved that language more than English, the language commonly used in West and North District.

"Of course, here is my card with the flat address and my phone number." the woman said and gave her a card.

Amelia looked at the card and read what was written there.
