Unpretty Love

**[17]**

Lisa is riding the horse in the morning with her cousin who she rarely meets. Aiden is 4 years older than her. And he is the heir of his father's company. They rarely meet because they are busy with their own business but there is always a thing that makes them always talk together when they have a chance.

They are family and they share their deepest story with each other. In Lisa's case, Aiden is living in the same circle as Zayn. And he knows how fucked up their relationship because of their unofficial family cold war.

"Can't believe you have more than 4 days off, Lili" He says when they already in the north forest of Brueschweiler's land. "That's unusual."

Lisa is chuckled. "Well.. they said its reward."

After some talk about their own job. The interesting story comes from Aiden's lips.

"You said you had a shoot in London?"

"Yes."

"What a coincidence, there is an unforgivable moment because your lovely ex-boyfriend ditched his pre-wedding shoot with his fiancee in vogue to fly in London not a long time ago."

She sighed. Ah, there is always the reason.

"Lili, that's related to what were you doing in London, am I right?" He asked again.

"How did you get the news?"

"Oh, Cmon it's not hard to get someone's information if you look at our grandpa's empire please..." He rolled his eyes. Annoyed with his own cousin. Looks like she forgets it. 

"Unbelievable. You stalked him?"

"You thought I am him or what, dear cousin?" He laughed. "Should I really give you a detail? Just pretend that you understand. I know what he does what his family does. Because somehow he is pretty obsessed and crazy," and Uncle Morten asked me, said him in his own thought.

"Yall have a lot of time and money,"

Aiden rolled his eyes. "Blame grandpa. And she gonna arrange you with someone who better than your ex of course and you gonna leave Korea for good."

"Yaaaaa!!! Grandpa won't do it."

Aiden laugh.

"Lisa, are you happy living there?" He asked when they stop their horses. Look at the clear sky in front of them not too far there is a waterfall with a small lake.

"What is with this emotional talk." She laughs.

"Not gonna lie I want you to move here with your parents."

"You need to ask me again afrer 7 or 10 years later."

"So are you really planning to marry a Korean man or what?"

"Of course not. I mean it can be but well.. I don't think I can give love like the precious one. At this moment I don't really have any thought about marriage or serious relationships. I just want to build my career and have fun with some men. I am still young you know..."

"Oh Lord, why you punish yourself like that. You need at least 5 years to find an ideal husband before grandpa does something to your life like me."

"Oh Cmon, Leona is pretty and she is so strong. She gonna be fine."

"That's the reason, my dear. I know she is too strong that somehow I know she gonna be fine even I hurt her. I am attracted to a weak woman I think."

Lisa gasped. "Well, I think we won't get what we want. We are cursed."

They chuckled.
