Chereads / Cruel and love / Chapter 5 - 05

Chapter 5 - 05

This seemed like a surprise because Rachel suddenly got a call from her uncle regarding her grandmother's recovery. Uncle said that Grandma's operation had been carried out while Rachel was in town. Grandma feels well after the operation.

Regarding costs? They get abundant harvests from the plantations, so they get a lot of money. Uncle immediately took Grandmother to the hospital for surgery.

I wanted to go back to the village after getting the encouraging news from my uncle. Unfortunately, my Uncle didn't allow me to go home and told me to stay in town. I was forced to cancel my intention to go home and told me to go to college. This surprised me.

I said I would still go home and at that time my grandmother took my uncle's cell phone and told me to go to college to get a job easily. And that's when I was forced to obey the old woman's wishes. although I also like it.

Selling cakes? I still sell cakes to supplement my tuition fees. There's no way I'm going to bother my uncle to pay my tuition fees until I graduate. I couldn't bear to do that.

And can I say something? Recently my cake business has not been accepted by many companies. They forbade me from selling my cakes in their office for no apparent reason.

"Ah, what should I do? I can't just rely on uncle's money, I have to find a way to sell these cakes." Rachel looked thoughtful looking at the cakes on the table at this time.

Placing a cake in a large office or company will result in big profits. This is because many employees will buy cakes and of course, the ingredients Rachel uses are of high quality and course delicious!

"Looks like I got bad luck after meeting that annoying guy."

In the dark of night, Vance was standing in front of the candle in his room, thinking about something. And a glass of coffee in one hand and he was spinning the glass while he was daydreaming about something.

"When will you come back Vera, I can't marry the woman my grandmother chooses."

Vance took a deep breath and sat down in a chair, he placed the glass on the table. The face that often showed arrogance now looked listless. In contrast to how he behaves outside, maintaining his arrogance and arrogance.

"Why, why did your vera have to disappear like this."

Vance then took the photo frame right next to him. He looked at a photo of a woman smiling, showing her teeth, and making her eyes disappear.

"Where are you now honey"

Darling? Who is Vera? And why does Vance call her darling...

Vera is Vance's girlfriend who disappeared for a year. they both love each other and almost get married. But unfortunately, Vera suddenly disappeared when Vance was planning the wedding.

"I don't want to marry that woman. I want you, darling."

Honestly, up to this moment, Vance is still hoping that Vera will come back soon. The man hopes that Vera, the woman he loves so much, will soon return to save him from an arranged marriage where his grandmother has found a woman for him. Vance didn't want that to happen. He doesn't want to marry anyone other than Vera.

And that's why Vance didn't listen to his grandmother and mother's orders to look for the woman who was currently in town. Just mention his future wife. Vance didn't do anything to slow down his marriage. He still wants Vera as his future wife.

Knock knock knock

Vance's thoughts were interrupted when someone knocked on his bedroom door. He put the photo frame back in its original place and went towards the door.

Srettt

"What's wrong, ma'am?"

"The food is ready, sir"

"Hm, okay, I'll be down soon."

Vance closed the door again and sat back in the chair, he took a few deep breaths. There was a feeling of sadness and pain becoming one in his heart. Regarding Vera who never came back, she was worried about matchmaking problems.

"Has he got any information about Vera?" Vance muttered then took his cell phone from his trouser pocket.

"I'd better ask him"

Everyone wants to marry a partner of their own choice to live happily in the future without any regrets or burdens. What happened to Vance, maybe some people have experienced it. Being abandoned when you get married and just disappearing is not what everyone wants.

There is a strong reason why Vance can be arrogant and cold because of the departure of his lover. He now prefers to spend his time working and looking for his woman.

And what is Rachel doing now while Vance is waiting for his girlfriend to return? Rachel is currently preparing clothes for her first day of college tomorrow. He is now ironing clothes to wear with mixed feelings.

"I didn't think I would go to college. Hm, I hope I can make lots of friends."

"I haven't had contact with other people for a long time since living here."

"It's finished---- okay, Rachel. Tomorrow you will go to college, do your best. OK!"

Rachel encouraged herself, her work of ironing clothes was finished and it was already evening. It's exactly midnight and Rachel has just finished ironing her clothes. And Yes she occasionally bakes cakes and will offer her cakes to the school canteen. Nice thought isn't it?

Rachel took a deep breath, then moved to turn off the television which was still on. Since then, the sound of the television has been the one that accompanies him in doing whatever he does in this house so as not to reduce boredom. Before leaving the middle room and going to the bedroom. He went to the kitchen to get a piece of white bread to reduce his hunger.

Vance is still reading the file that Halsey gave him via email.

"Seen someone who looks like him in Ansan?" Vance read the witness statements.

"That's right. It's not yet confirmed that it was him. I didn't respond to the witness' statement only once, but he saw it many times. You can see, he even took a rambar." Halsey reminded Vance again that in the file he had displayed a photo.

Vance looked back at his computer screen and enlarged the photo taken from a distance. From the side, at first glance, it looks like Vera, but it's a bit blurry. He can guess if the photos were taken using a cellphone camera. So when he enlarges the photo it will look blurry and broken.

"If this is Vera, I think it's just a waste of money to search other countries." Halsey chuckled. He remembered how vigorously they had searched for Vance's lover in the first week when Vera was declared missing.

Now of course the search is still ongoing according to Vance's wishes. This man loves Vera and will find her. That's his wish.

Vance rubbed his chin. He doesn't want to be happy quickly. He was afraid that it would not meet his expectations and lead to disappointment for him. Even so, Vance couldn't deny that he wanted to find Vera back immediately, at least he could know where she was last seen.

Halsey looked at Vance who was looking very seriously at the computer screen. He worked at Vance's company to secure company data and of course, looked for something else that his boss needed. Apart from that, he is also tasked with solving problems that occur in the company. To avoid people who only want money.

"What do you think?" Halsey asked because Vance had been silent all this time.

Vance glanced at Halsey for a moment. Then, he slowly stood up from his work chair. Putting both hands into his trouser pockets then walked towards the large glass in front of him, here Vance could see tall buildings.

"Why are you silent? So, what? Do I have to move again?" Halsey asked.
