After spending 17 hours on the ne, Lilia and Merry arrived in Mn at three in the afternoon local time.


    They collected their baggage andpleted the checking process before finally exiting the pick-up area. There, Harold was waiting for them. The man looked like a tourist on vacation in his casual t-shirt and sunsses.


    Merry pushed the carriage containing their luggage towards Harold. They didn''t bring a lot of luggage because the clothes for the fashion show were already arranged by the brand ownerpany that employed Lilia.


    "Wee to Mn!" Harold grinned as he took off his sunsses, "You must be tired after a long journey. I''ve booked a hotel for all of us, so you guys can rest there before going to see the show location." Harold took the luggage cart from Merry as he exined.


    Lilia''s manager arrived in Mn two days ago. As this was Lilia''s first international fashion week, Harold arranged everything carefully to make the event run as smoothly as possible.


    When she heard that, Lilia let out a sigh of relief as she rolled her shoulders, "I need to rest. I didn''t sleep well on the ne at all!"


    Harold nodded, "Our hotel is not far from the show location, so you can rx a little."


    As the two of them continued to talk while exiting the airport, Merry looked around curiously. Her eyes were wide wide as if she was seeing something truly amazing.


    They got into the car Harold had prepared and immediately drove away. Lilia stared out the window, taking in the busy streets of Mn. The car had no cont, so they had to roll down its windows. The weather in Mn in early September was cool andfortable even though the sun was still shining.


    Satisfied by looking around, Lilia finally remembered her promise to Jean. She turned on her cell phone and found new messages in the Other app. The message arrived ten minutes ago.


    [Jean]: "Not there yet?"


    Lilia smiled because of her fiancé''s impatience, "Just arrived." She replied.


    Only a few seconds after that, Jean already replied. He sent Lilia a picture. When the woman opened the picture, it turned out that it contained the forecast for the next week in Mn.


    "This guy really…" Lilia muttered. Thinking of Jean made her miss his deep voice, even though they had just metst night.


    [Jean]: "Don''t get cold. The difference between daytime and nighttime temperature is pretty extreme there."


    [Lilia]: "Jean, stop worrying. I will be fine!"


    After Lilia sent the message, Jean stopped replying. Lilia thought that the man was busy and hung up.


    About an hourter, they arrived at the Townhouse Hotel which was located near the Cathedral of Mn. Harold had purposely booked a room facing the cathedral for Lilia.


    The room was quite spacious. It was divided into several different rooms, such as a living room, bedroom and bathroom. The furniture inside was mostly monochrome, giving a simple but modern impression. When Lilia came out onto the balcony of her room, she could immediately see the Mn Cathedral. She rested her hands on the carved balcony rail and looked out over the city. Lilia saw many pedestrians in the cathedral front square.


    Mn was filled with medieval style buildings and had a warm atmosphere. Combined with the clear blue sky, the sight of this beautiful foreign city washed away all of Lilia''s fatigue.


    She returned to the room to get her cell phone and take a selfie with the cathedral as the background. After taking a few snaps of photos, Lilia returned to the living room and started selecting the best photos to post on her social media ounts.


    Lilia added the caption "Hello, Mn!" before posting that photo.


    After hesitating for a moment, Lilia also sent the photo to Jean. She was waiting for Jean''s reply with a pounding heart, but ten minutes passed and the man had not yet replied.


    Lilia frowned suspiciously. Where was the man who always replied in just a few seconds? Wasn''t it nearly ten at night there? Was Jean so busy that he couldn''t check his phone?


    Lilia waited patiently for an hour to pass, but Jean didn''t reply to her message.


    Suddenly there was a knock on the door to her room.


    "Lilia, this is Harold. Are you awake?" The man''s voice echoed through the door.


    "Yeah. Hold on, let me open the door. " Lilia got up from her chair and headed for the door.


    When Lilia opened the door, she saw Harold and Merry fully clothed. Harold was wearing a neat shirt and trousers, with his hair gelled andbed. Beside him, Merry looked like an assistant with a in white T-shirt, jeans and a backpack on her back.


    "Um ... where do you want to go?" Lilia was surprised at their appearance, especially Harold who was well dressed.


    The manager frowned, "Didn''t I say that we were going to see the location of the show after resting? Do you forget?"


    "Ah… sorry, I was too excited to see the view from my room. Wait a minute, I''ll get changed soon." Lilia hurriedly closed her bedroom door and changed into clothes. She was wearing a white knit dress and a long, bohemian skirt that gave her a casual look.


    Lilia joined Harold and Merry, then they walked towards the Mn Cathedral. The light of the evening sun made the whole city look like it was covered in gold.


    Lilia saw that there were many tourists taking pictures in the square in front of the cathedral. Lilia''s gaze shifted towards the Mn Cathedral and she let out a sigh of admiration. Even someone who was ignorant of architecture seemed to feel the majesty of this historic building. Its high roofs and stained ss windows made the building look majestic.


    Suddenly Lilia felt her arm being pulled and she almost got hit by a rushed passerby, "Hey, watch where you are walking!" Harold scolded while releasing Lilia''s arm.


    "S-Sorry." Lilia stopped admiring the cathedral and turned to Harold, "Where is the location for this year''s fashion week?"


    Harold nodded his head towards the building beside the cathedral that was no less magnificent, "At the Arengario Pce. One of the best ces in Mn to hold a fashion show!"


    Merry who was trailing behind the two eximed in amazement, "That ce looks amazing! I want to take a closer look, let''s hurry over there! " The young woman looked very excited, like a country girl who wasing to a big city for the first time.


    The three of them headed towards the Arengario Pce, which consisted of two separate butpletely symmetrical buildings. The walls looked as if they were made of gold in thete afternoon sun. The entrance was in between the two buildings.


    While Merry was busy praising andmenting on the beauty of the historic building, Harold gave Lilia a worried nce. The model paid no attention to the location of the show and instead checked her cell phone repeatedly.


    Before Harold could warn Lilia, the woman bumped into a male tourist for being too focused on her cell phone.


    "Ah…!" Lilia lost her bnce and almost fell.


    "Are you okay?!" The man who hit her immediately grabbed Lilia''s shoulder so she didn''t fall, "I''m really sorry, I was so focused on looking around that I bumped into you." He said in fluent English.


    Lilia felt like she had heard this man''s voice before, but she didn''t really think about it, "I am fine. I should be the one apologizing for not paying attention… "


    When Lilia looked up, her eyes widened and she forgot what she was going to say.


    "B-Brother Alfred?" Lilia asked in disbelief.


    "Eh, Lilia?" Alfred, Daniel''s trustee lecturer, looked just as surprised.


    "Lilia, is she an acquaintance of yours?" Harold approached them, staring closely at Alfred.


    "Yes, this is Alfred, my brother''s guardian lecturer. Brother Alfred, this is Harold, my manager. The woman behind him is Merry, my assistant." Lilia immediately introduced them.


    "I''m Alfred, nice to meet you." Alfred smiled and shook hands with the two people.


    "Brother Alfred, what are you doing in Mn?" Lilia asked curiously.


    The man was dressed casually in a long-sleeved id shirt and jeans. Coupled with the backpack on his back, he looked like an ordinary tourist.


    "I''m apanying my family on vacation here." Alfred replied kindly, "It''s been a while since I had a vacation, so I took time off to spend time with my family. How about you, Lilia? What are you doing here?"


    "I''m here for work." Lilia exined, "I was invited to attend Mn Fashion Week in three days as a model, so I''m here to check out the location first."


    Alfred''s eyes widened, "Mn Fashion Week?! Wow, that''s amazing! I wille to watch you, Lilia! You…"


    Before Alfred could finish his sentence, the man''s cell phone rang. He checked the screen and his expression turned grim.


    "Ah, I have toe back soon. Lilia, can you tell me the details of the event via SMS? I promise I''ll be there!" Asked Alfred.


    Lilia nodded, "Y-Yes, of course. I''ll call youter, Brother Alfred."


    Alfred said goodbye to them before hurrying away.


    Harold looked at the man with suspicion. Alfred looked like an educated, polite and friendly man, but Harold felt that he was not that simple in appearance.


    "Let''s continue to have a look at this ce." Lilia led them. She felt more focused after meeting Alfred.


    They walked around the building and only returned to the hotel when the sun hadpletely set. Harold reminded Lilia that she had to take part in a photo shoot scheduled by the organizers of the fashion week tomorrow before they returned to their respective rooms.


    Lilia sat on the bed. Her anxiety returned when she checked her phone and there was no message from Jean. Lilia kept waiting for Jean''s reply, but she was too tired and gave in to her sleepiness. She slept so soundly that she didn''t notice her phone vibrated around three in the morning.
