For some time now, Wang Zheng had been removed from her old routine, the people she used to know, and the world she once inhabited. She now led a reclusive life in a small English town, savoring the slow, quiet days as a way to reflect on her existence. In a sense, this was her penance for the excesses of her past.
The days moved slowly there.
Perhaps that was the point.
It would be a lie to say her family was happy with Wang Zheng's recent behavior. After all, the only solution to the problem had been to remove her from the country and from the business.
Yet, despite being cut off from everything and everyone, she still longed for news of Liu Wei—to know how she was doing and whether she was succeeding.
And yet, despite being separated from the world she had known, there was one thing she couldn't bring herself to stop wondering about.
Liu Wei.
How was she doing?
Was she happy?
Was she succeeding?
