A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

While listening to her words, Magee remembered another face. Yes, once there was also another woman who loved him like this and also regarded him as her savior.

How ridiculous! In this dirty world, who would consider saving anyone but themselves? Since everyone was living in sin, none was cleaner than the other.

A mocking sneer settled on his face, and suddenly he turned, pressing the woman down beneath him.

"Since you ask for it, I won't restrain myself now," he grinned evilly.

"Ah..."

Groans of pain and enjoyment from the woman clung to the dark night sky. The tent was host to shockingly wild movements all night as the man and woman became tangled up together inside.

Cherry finally got what she wanted. Now she was immersed in great joy and also felt a growing sense of vanity, for she had become Magee Lin's woman.

The next day, careful that Jacob was out, she went to meet Emily. Walking into the yard, she found her sitting in the sunshine, bathed in a glorious glow, ceremoniously making tea.

Cherry walked up to her with her head tucked in the air, full of pride and brazen immodesty, "I have been with Mr. Lin," she promptly declared.

Her words stunned Emily momentarily and, as expected, she raised her head to look at Cherry in surprise, "You?"

"Yes, me! What do you mean?" Unsatisfied with her attitude, Cherry countered, "What's wrong with that? Why can't it be me? I love him and he loves me, too. Can't we be together?" she kept explaining, exaggeratedly trying to make it seem like a love story.

When it came to "He loves me, too" Cherry swallowed down her guilty conscience. She soothed her heart, reasoning that he would not have lain with her, if he didn't love her at all.

So, in her mind they really loved each other.

"It's none of my business whether you two are together or not." Emily patiently continued brewing her tea, not willing to give Cherry a second glance. "I just felt a bit surprised. It is a little strange. That's all," she said dryly.
