Unexpectedly, Lacey sees Sung holding Wendy’s hand, when she’s getting flowers in the garden. Her head goes blank at that moment. She was told before, that Sung used to be very close to the new doctor, Wen. She doesn’t believe this rumor at first, because she knows Sung’s heart well. He can’t endure another woman to step in his life, except her sister. What’s more, this doctor is not that good looking as her sister…
Wendy sees her unexpected, “Oh, Princess Lacey, why you came out today?” She lets Sung’s hand go at once! Lacey normally doesn’t walk out, she always stays in her room or Zoe’s room.
“Your Majesty.” Lacey greets without showing any expression. Sung nods and says, “Your body is weak, why you came out? You should be resting.” Sung never cares about Lacey’s mind all these years.
“Thanks for your consideration, your majesty. I feel bored these days, that’s why I came out for a walk. And get some beautiful flowers.” Lacey replies calmly, strikes in a distance.
“Then I won’t bother you guys now, Princess Lacey and your majesty! I need to go check Zoe.” Wendy finds an excuse and gets away. However, Sung holds her hand, “Wait, I go with you.” At this point, Wendy feels a big awkward, she throws a glance, “Your majesty, don’t worry about Zoe. I will take care of her. You may enjoy here with Princess Lacey.”
Sung doesn’t care that much, or he does it on purpose. “It’s fine, let’s go!” He holds Wendy and grabs her away. “Hey, you shouldn’t do this to her.” Wendy says. “Can’t you see she’s sad? She doesn’t know my real identity.” Sung chooses to ignore her sorrow, saying with insistence, “I tell you now, Wendy. My heart can let one woman in, you or her! You choose!” Wendy speaks after a while, “If I can choose, I wish you love her…” If Sung could transform his love to Lacey, then he would feel less pain when Wendy leaves one day.
Sung gets pissed suddenly, “What does that mean?” Wendy doesn’t want to break his heart, she chooses to act, “Hah, silly, I was joking! Of course, I never want to share you with others!” Which is true, she never wants to share her man with other women. “I don’t allow you to say that ever, or I will be really angry! Do you understand?” Sung complains then calms down. Wendy nods, “Fine, fine!” Then they walk to Zoe’s place.
After the treatment for Zoe, Wendy does some massage for her, to cultivate her neurons. She wishes Zoe would wake up sooner or later, before her death coming. Sometimes, she feeds her own blood to Zoe, secretly. Because her master told her, she could transfer some of her power to others, by this way. And it works, Zoe’s face looks more natural and pink day after day. One night, Lacey comes to Wendy. Wendy smells danger again, she thinks Lacey would have a big fight this time, for what she saw that day in the garden. However, she just searches around in Wendy’s room.
“My Princess, what are you looking for?” Wendy asks. Lacey replies, “I didn’t see your maids today, where are they?” She asks. Wendy nods, “Oh, the majesty sent my old maids home. For Chen, she’s getting older, it’s her time to retire.”
Lacey laughs, “Wow, the majesty is so nice! Then what about Daisy? I thought you like her, same as me, I adore her a lot. She used to be my sister’s favor!” Wendy replies, “Oh, for her, I thought I have enough maids around me now, so I told the majesty to leave me only one.” Unexpectedly, Lacey holds her hands, “You silly girl, you are different now! I see how my majesty adores you. You will be the princess one day. So you need to have more maids at least.” Lacey sighs then continues, “About this place, it used to belong to my sister, it’s not good for you to stay. You knew she passed away, and the aura here is not good. How about I give you a new place?”
Wendy watches her, doesn’t feel she’s acting now. While, her glare is quite uncomfortable and weird. Wendy smiles back and refuses, “Oh my princess, you are so nice to me! But no need, I appreciate it. I don’t want to be a princess here, either.” Lacey stunned then turns to smile again, “Oh, but it’s going to be winter, this place is quite humid. It’s not comfortable to live I guess, how about I find you another warm place?” She asks with confidence, like an order, which Wendy can’t refuse one more time.
Meanwhile, Sunny walks in with a pot of tea, “Princess Lacey, I made you some flower tea, I knew it’s your favor.” Lacey nods back gently. “And Doctor Wen, the maid from Zoe just came to look for you! She wanted you to go there now.” Sunny says then shares a look to Wendy. “Ok, I will go now! And please take good care of Princess Lacey!” Wendy looks at Sunny with gratitude then heads out.
Wendy sits in Zoe’s room for a long time, she will be back when Sunny informs her later. Evoking Lacey’s behavior today, it’s very scary. Lacey didn’t act this time, she seemed normal and nice. While, the expression from her eyes are very sharp. Lacey has changed, maybe not in a good way. She sits then massages Zoe’s hands, in the dim light of the candles. As these candles, their missions are to light everything they see. When they finish they will distinguish. So does her, when her mission is done, her light will distinguish and disappeared. As a doctor, she doesn’t feel any proud of herself. despite how many people she has saved here.
“Who are you?” A girl’s voice runs by, it’s Zoe! She shakes Wendy’s hand and asks in a weak voice. Wendy looks back to the bed, yes, it’s Zoe! She stares at Wendy with her misty eyes. Her beautiful face seems like those blossom flowers in the early morning of the winter! She woke up! “You, woke up? Zoe?” Wendy asks with her jerking voice, “Don’t be afraid, I am a doctor. How do you feel now?” Wendy controls her mood now and then, she’s too excited to talk to this passed out girl for four years!
“Did you save me?” Zoe blinks with her big black eyes. Wendy nods, “Yes, we all try to save you!”
“Oh, how many days I have slept?” Zoe continues asks. Wendy sighs, “Four years…”
“What, four year?! How?” She seems panic, and struggles to sit up. “Don’t move a lot, Zoe, you are still weak.” Wendy holds her. “Where is my brother? Can you get him for me?” Zoe says with sorrow, she doesn’t know what happens to Sung after four years. Wendy nods then runs for Sung. Sooner or later, this shocking new’s spreading everywhere in the palace, Zoe woke up tonight! Sung runs in as fast as he could, “My, my Zoe! You woke up!” He hugs her and burst into weeping.
Zoe holds his hands and asks, “Brother, tell me what happened? Why I slept that long?” Sung wipes her tears, “Don’t you remember? You have passed out like four years, you were drowned by someone in our garden! It’s fine now, my Zoe! I’m here with you!” Zoe puts a lovely smile to him, “And who you married?” Sung answers, “I married Yasmin.” Suddenly, Zoe’s face turns white, seems like it’s unbelievable news for her! Sung notices this and checks at once, “Tell me, who pushed you that day?” Zoe sits up and asks, “Will you revenge for me?” Sung nods, “I will kill her for you!”
“It’s Yasmin!” Zoe replies with confidence.
“Are you sure? Is it really her?” Sung asks with his mind blank. Zoe nods with a sneer, “Yes, it’s her. I will never forget.”
