Jia Li had visited the new condo where Tang had been living recently . He had mentioned about it in one of the mails to her . But she couldn't get any information from the stone faced manager there . It was early for the meeting with Mr . Wang but she had run out of other options . She decided to go and wait at the office's entrance lobby for the meet . He was her last and only hope left . Upon reaching the place, she informed the reception about her arrival and turned to go find herself a seat .

"Ouch!" she had banged into another woman who had been rushing past .

The young woman's hand was bandaged . With her eyes closed, she was grimacing in pain .

"I am so so sorry . It was unintentional . Does it hurt terribly?" Jia Li asked her in concern .

The woman shook her head in negative but her pale face was suggesting otherwise . Looking at the scene unfolding in front of her, the receptionist called up Wei's office since Ms . Samantha, the new director seemed to be closely working with him . She had seen them come and go back from work together in the recent past .

Advertisement"Come, sit down . I am going to get you a cup of water," Jia Li said and ran towards the water dispensing machine .

Bringing the water to her, Jia Li sat on her haunches as the woman took a sip of water and looked at her ruefully .

"Actually the fault was mine . I should have been more careful about where I was going, especially with a bruised hand . Pease don't feel bad . I am better now . The pain is slowly subsiding," Sam tried to console the striking woman in front of her .

She was gorgeous . There was no other way to describe her . Deep green eyes with flawless skin, the woman had a shimmering elegant air about her . Even dressed in normal office attire, she looked amazing . She was someone who would probably be called an 'effortless beauty' .

Sam was busy admiring her looks when a stern voice interrupted her reverie, "I told you to stay home and take care of that hand . Why can't you ever follow instructions?"

Jia Li's heart froze at the sound of that voice . Loathed to turn around, she kept sitting down on the floor with her back to Wang Wei .

"I am absolutely fine . Nobody needs rescuing here, so put back that sword in its sheath . As for staying at home, I was bored," she pouted .

Jia Li was hoping that the woman would keep Wei busy enough for her to make an escape unnoticed and she nearly succeeded in it .

"Hey, sorry! Ignore the man and his scoldings . Thanks for the water . Also, I wanted to tell you that you have beautiful, unusual eyes for a Chinese woman . I am sure enough people have told you this but I couldn't help myself from saying it . I am Samantha, by the way," she extended her hand to Jia Li who had just raised herself to her full height and was trying to move away without turning to face Wei .

At her words, Wei froze . There weren't too many women with unusual eyes in his universe . Heart pounding, he placed a restraining hand on Jia Li's shoulder and came around to face her .

"Hi", he said softly .

Jia Li's face was flushed . She didn't know how to meet his eyes .

"Hi, Wei . How are you doing?" she replied in hushed tones .

His cold hand grabbed her equally frozen fingers, "come with me . "

Without waiting for her to say yes, he held her hand and took her away .

Sam stood there, forgotten, forlorn and hurting . She hadn't seen such expressions on Wei's face ever during the past weeks that she had been closely associated with him .

"Samantha, if this is the woman whom he was seeking in London that time, then you don't stand a chance," she informed her already bleeding heart .

Wei didn't let go of Jia Li's hand till they entered his cabin .

"What's wrong? Why have you lost so much weight? Are you unwell?" his words were like a soothing balm to her extinguished spirit .

She had missed him, the solid support which his presence used to bring to her, his thoughtfulness which could understand everything unspoken .

After days of heartbreaking loneliness, Jia Li came up and hugged him hard, tears already flowing down from her cheeks . This is what she had been dreading the most, her unequivocal dependence upon him . But she was tired of being brave and needed a few minutes of respite .

Wei's heart thundered in anxiety as he felt her tears raining down her cheeks . Sitting at the edge of his table, he held her firmly in the circle of his arms while she emptied her grief out .
