I will meet you soon

"Oh hello, Mister Escort Greyson!"

Mia greeted with a forced smile. She didn't want to meet the man in front of her. She had decided not to interact with main three characters. But now it looked like they three were the ones who always come to her. 'Why do I have to meet this man?! Oh wait this is his mall after all'

Mia rolled her eyes at the fact. Escort smiled at the girl who was smiling back him but it was an obvious forced smile. He chuckled. "It looks like you don't want to meet me" "Obviously.." Mia mumbled but she made sure that Escort heard her. "You never change"

Escort chuckled as he stepped near to Mia more. "Hold on! Don't step any closer Mister Escort Greyson. That's very inappropriate. Also there are people watching us" Mia warned as she stepped back two steps. Escort smiled in satisfaction.

She never failed to make him stunned. "But you are no longer taken" Mia rolled her eyes. "So what? Just tell me what you want, Mister Escort Greyson" Mia spoke impatiently. Escort smirked at the young woman as she stared back blankly.

"I would like you to talk with me casually first" Mia stared at Escort for a second. She couldn't even count how much she rolled her eyes in her mind. She pressed her lips tightly, finished cursing at herself for coming to the mall of Escort Greyson.

'This flirty fool'

"What do you want, Escort Greyson" Mia said with a stone face. "No not like that" Mia gritted her teeth in annoyance. "You are testing my patient.. What do you want, Escort" there was annoyance in her voice. She sounded so unwilling.

It was the moment Escort's lips curved up into a satisfied smile. "I just want to buy you a meal" he replied. "Nah, I don't want to accept that. Please excuse me if that's what you want" Mia walked away from the man but Escort followed her.

"Isn't that Escort Greyson? The owner of this mall and other malls" "Yes, it is him! But who is that woman beside him?" "Maybe another toy of him. We all know that he is playboy who has many girls hearts" "Wait! I know that woman. It is Mia Grace! Remember her?"

"You mean the woman who divorced George Seith?" "Exactly!" "Why is she with Escort Greyson?" "Come to think of it isn't that strange?" "What do you mean?" "Mia Grace divorced George Seith like a week ago! Maybe because she really had someone behind George Seith!"

"Do you mean Mia Grace is dating Escort behind George Seith?" "What a shame!" "I know right. I thought it was a brother of Roman Silas. I forgot his name" "He is Dean Silas" "Ah yea, Dean Silas, the one who Mia Grace hugged at the party shamelessly"

People spoke and judged as they wanted. Mia and Escort could hear them clearly. But they didn't bother Mia because she was used to them but for Escort, he didn't like that. There were many people talking bad about him too but they didn't bother him.

Meanwhile he felt so annoyed for Mia Grace without realizing. He turned his head at the two women who were whispering loudly. He sent a sharp glares at the women as the two women shut their mouths immediately and looked down at the floor in fear.

Mia glanced at Escort who turned back to her with a sweet smile. 'What's wrong with this gay or guy whatever!' she screamed in her mind. "Alright.." she finally stopped walking. She turned around at the man who also stopped walking. "Why are you following me?"

She asked as pressed down her anger.

"I am not following you though"

Escort replied with an innocent eyes but there was a playful smirk on his face. He looked like he was enjoying to annoy her. Mia squeezed her eyes. "I am going back to home now. Stop following me before I call security" Mia warned with sharp eyes.

But Escort giggled at her words. Mia furrowed her brows in confusion. "Why are you laughing?" "Did you forget that this is my mall? Who will the security listen to? You or me? Think about it" Mia was so done.

She couldn't take it anymore. "I will call the police" Mia said back as Escort smiled at her. "Why am I even fighting with you? Gosh" Mia spoke to herself and walked away. Escort didn't follow her that time. He only whispered something. "I will meet you soon"

Mia left the mall with a frown. "I swear, if I meet him again, I am going to believe that novel is changing for real. No this novel is not the book I read anymore, I will believe in that way. So please don't make me meet those three, I don't want to die. I want to live with full of luxury first"

Mia mumbled as she put out the phone from the purse. "I am finished! Come to me right now" Mia ordered her bodyguard then she hung up the phone. Two minutes later, the car stopped in front of Mia.

The bodyguard went out from the car as quickly ran towards Mia with a stone face. He grabbed the bags from Mia without hesitating. Mia gave all the bags and box to her bodyguard then she went into the car.

"Drive back to the villa"

She spoke lazily with annoyance. "Yes, Miss" he drove back to the villa in thirty minutes. "Welcome back, Miss!" Maki's granddaughter greeted with a grin as she quickly grabbed the bags from a bodyguard. "Hey!" Mia greeted back.

"You can rest now"

Mia told to her bodyguard and walked up to her room with Maki's granddaughter behind. "Can you make me a cup of green tea?" Maki's granddaughter nodded hardly after she placed the bags in Mia's room. Then the girl walked out of the room with a smile.

Mia sighed loudly as sat lazily on the couch. She looked at the floor with deep thoughts. She still had to meet Dean Silas even though she didn't want to. She was the one who accepted the invitation to his birthday party.

"I can't believe that I agreed to him. I should have said I am busy" she scolded herself. But little did she know that she accepted Dean Silas's invitation because her heart told her to. Mia's heart was the one who was willing to accept. Because her brain thought Dean was Henry.

"I wish I could meet Henry for once at least..." Mia spoke under her breath. Her mood swinged in a second because of the thought of Henry. "Omg, I miss him!!" She finally shouted her thought. She accepted that Henry was the first boy who treated her like a real princess.

(Flashback to Mia's past life)

"Sister Mia!" Henry shouted as he ran towards the young woman who was eating strawberries. "What's wrong?" Mia asked with furrowed eyebrows. There was a huge smile on Henry's face. "Guess what?" He teased the young woman.

"You better stop making riddles before I kick you out of my house" Mia rolled her eyes and said in annoyance. Henry smiled and sat down beside her on the floor. "I bought something" Henry flashed his dimples at the young woman.

"Stop showing off your handsome face, young man. If you bought something then why are you telling that to me? Didn't you buy it because you want it?" Henry sighed. "No, it is for you" Mia furrowed her brows. "Why would you buy something for me? Do you need money?"

Henry frowned. "Why are you frowning? Do you want me to pay back for what you bought? Alright, tell me how much then" Mia was about to stand up from sitting to grab her purse. A hand suddenly wrapped around Mia's wrist and made her fall back onto the floor back.

"Listen to me first, Mia"

Mia frowned. "You always call me Sister Mia why change it now?" She questioned with a stone face while facing the young handsome man. Henry finally realized what he just called her, his face was flushed as the redness covered his ears.

"Your face is almost red as tomato now, do you have any fever?" Mia placed her right hand on Henry's forhead to test the fever. "I am fine. Ignore it. Listen to me first" Henry changed the conversation quickly as his cheeks were glowing red.

"Fine fine. Tell me Mister Henry. I am listening" Henry's lips curved up into a smile. He grabbed the bag which he hid behind him. The sight of a bag made Mia furrowed her brows in doubts. "No way, don't tell me" Mia spoke as she stared into Henry's eyes.

"Happy birthday, Mia"

Mia was stunned when Henry put out the necklace from the bag. "How-" words were nowwhere to be found. She couldn't say anything. Henry observed the reaction from the young woman in front of him. He smiled in satisfaction.

"No, I won't accept it. That is expensive! Let's sell that back. I can't take it" Mia's words made Henry's smile dropped. His eyes showed sadness. It was as if an arrow stabbed his heart. "Let's go. Let's sell this necklace back. You need money"

Henry pulled Mia back from standing up. "Accept it. If you don't want to see me breathing in pain, take this" he begged her. Mia gritted her teeth. Ofc, she knew that was so precious. That necklace had caught her attention when Henry and her were hanging out.

Maybe Henry saw her observing that necklace. "Why would you buy that when you need money? My birthday is nothing. You are more important, Henry. So it is ok. I forgive you just go sell this necklace back" she held the boy's hand.

Henry tightened his grip on Mia's hand.

"No, take it. I don't need money. And who said your birthday is nothing? It is very important to me and you and also my sister. Maybe others don't care about your birthday but I do, my sister do too. Never talk like that again or I am going to skip every classes and steal others money"

Henry threatened as he looked into Mia's eyes with puppy eyes. "You little ass.. how dare you threaten me. Alright I will accept this. But don't buy expensive things for me ever again. Am I understood?" Henry nodded with a grin.

Mia stared at the necklace with a soft smile. "Thank you, Henry. Thank you.." she whispered as Henry flashed his dimples. "Let me do it for you" Henry spoke to the young woman who was struggling with trying on the necklace.

Henry went near to Mia as he put on the necklace gently. He didn't realize the young woman who was stunned by him. He was pretty close with her. Mia was holding her breath in shock without realizing. "It is done.." he said happily.

He sat back down and grinned at the young woman. "I knew it. It looks so pretty on you" he softly spoke as Mia stared at him but no one knew what was going on in her head. "Umm I know right? This looks good" she awkwardly said.

"What do you want to eat? I will buy for you or cook for you" Mia stood up along with Henry. When they two stood up, their height difference made Mia looked like a younger sister. "Even an apple is fine" Henry told as Mia furrowed her brows.

"No way. Go call your sister too. I will cook something for us" Mia walked towards the kitchen. "Ok! By the way.." Henry stopped walking and turned around at the young woman who also stopped and stared at him back, waited for him to speak.

"Happy birthday, I wish you all the best"

Just simple words made Mia's heart tickled. She looked at the boy who walked out of the house. "This boy.." she mumbled as pressed her chest with her hand. Her heart had been becoming so strange because of that boy, Henry.

(Back to present)

The best memories but they were like needles for Mia. They stabbed her heart thousand times. "Henry... I miss you" Mia mumbled as she wiped away her tears with tissues. "Miss, green tea is ready!" Maki's granddaughter shouted from the outside. "Oh, yeah come in!"
