Perhaps Love

Seulgi was stunned by the news. For the sake of Lisa's health, Seulgi agreed to return to the capital.

After returning to the capital, Lisa was occupied with nothing. One day she received a call.

"Lisa, I was the class monitor. Do you remember me? We decide to organize a gathering of old college classmates. I hope you can come."

Due to his friendly attitude, Lisa had no reason to refuse him. Besides, she was a little bored with the idle life these days. So, she readily agreed to go to the gathering.

Mr. Park had no objection to Lisa going to the gathering, but he made three requests, "No revealing clothes. No high-heeled shoes. No makeup."

Lisa accepted with good grace. Since she returned to the capital, she had never worn revealing dresses no matter how beautiful they were, because Mr. Park said that wearing short skirts was an offence against decency.

Lisa thought that Mr. Park's taste had changed a lot. He seemed to prefer unpretentious clothes now.

She tied back her hair, and put on a shirt, a pair of jeans and flat shoes. It couldn't be more unpretentious in her view. If Mr. Park was still unsatisfied, she would have to put some patches on her clothes.

Mr. Park was very satisfied. However, not everyone had the same aesthetic view as him.

Almost all of her college classmates had already arrived at the hall. Lisa didn't arrive early or late. Anyway, she was a hot topic of conversation.

At the sight of her unpretentious clothes, her female classmates put on mocking smiles.

With a kind of dark pleasure, someone asked, "Lisa, did you break up with your old-aged boyfriend?"

Lisa, who had always been dressed up at college, now dressed so simply. They all wanted to laugh at her.

A woman took Miyeon's hand and said, "Miyeon must be the most successful person in our class. Her career has blossomed abroad in recent years, and she has even opened a studio. Lisa, you two were roommates before. If you can't find a job, you can go to Miyeon's studio to gain some working experience."

Someone echoed, "Yes! We are all old classmates. Of course we should help each other."

Miyeon refused politely, "My small studio has just opened for business, and is not strong. All my employees have to work very hard."

Everyone knew that Lisa was terrible at school, because as a rich man's mistress, she had never studied hard. So it was impossible for her to work hard in Miyeon's studio.

Lisa laughed and said in disapproval, "I'm an academic loser. How can I go to Miyeon's studio? I don't want to bring troubles upon her."

There was enmity between Miyeon and Lisa, though no one knew it. Miyeon had been always envious of Lisa's opulent lifestyle at college. Afterwards, she saw Mr. Park who doted on Lisa, and became more envious of Lisa. Now Lisa's modest dressing gave Miyeon an illusion that Mr. Park had broken up with Lisa. Miyeon couldn't help but feel delighted.

In her view, Mr. Park was a rich, handsome and perfect man, and Lisa didn't deserve him at all.

"Lisa, I seem to have seen you in the TV series." A man, who had sharp eyes, recognized at once that Lisa had appeared in some TV plays.

"Hahaha, she played the roles of passersby?"

Everyone was yearning for the glamorous showbiz. So they couldn't help but ask some questions. But they all had a deeply rooted prejudice against Lisa, so their words were loaded with irony.

"Do you get a good pay as a walk-on?"

"I have heard that there are various hidden rules in showbiz. Is it true?"

"As a beautiful woman, you must have often been bullied by the rich, right?"

Lisa, who was always indulged by Mr. Park these days, got angry. She picked up a bowl and banged it down on the ground. All the people in the hall quieted down.

"Lisa?"

Just then, Mr. Park's voice rang in Lisa's ears. Mr. Park, who happened to have an appointment here, didn't expect that he would meet his girlfriend, Lisa.

Mr. Park was a nobleman with an admirable temperament.
