The Second Chance To Change Destiny.
Chapter 60 The price of friendship.

"Why hasn't he come back yet?" liana grew tired of reading books.

Liana stared out the window, because the library was on the 3rd floor so Liana could see the garden of this building from above, in the park there was a man who was watering the security there.

"I'm going there," Liana said. He was desperate to get out of his own library, lucky he managed to find a way to the park.

"The plants are all fresh," said Liana smiling at the man who was watering the flowers, the man returning his smile.

"I took care of him myself. You likey?" ask the man. Liana nodded.

"Goodoo. What kind of flowers do you like? my mother liked tulips the most, so I gave the flowers special care. Look at your heart."

"Thank you." Liana saw all the flowers there and occasionally smelled a sweet fragrance coming out of each flower.

"Hi Luca! how are you?" ask a woman who approaches both. The woman wears a long skirt up to the ankles, then a tight shirt limited to the chest with short sleeves. The woman in black was sweet, with long wavy hair making Liana fascinated with her beauty

"My news is good, Naina. You've arrived apparently, I'm happy to see you after all this time." Luca hugged the girl then let go of her embrace after a while.

"But I'm not happy when I see you, let alone with a woman. You didn't forget that we were gonna get married?"

"Naina, she's my friend. We haven't been acquaintances because he just met, he really likes flowers just like me so I'll just take it he's my friend."

"Enough! I don't need your explanation. I've promised any woman that if I see her with you, I'll teach her a lesson until she doesn't dare to stand near you anymore" Naina said.  Then he walked over to Liana, "Why are you staring at me like that? have you never seen a beautiful woman or an eastern woman's outfit?  to me it's only natural that not all people of this empire have money and can go to the eastern Empire, you never do either, right? your dress is quite expensive in terms of material, just that your long-sleeved dress is like a winter outfit. Aren't you tired of wearing it?"

"A lot of talk" said Elena who had just come, she heard everything Naina said.

"What's your problem with Ashraf's clothes? the weather here is cold, be careful you can catch a cold because your clothes are too thin and open. The cold wind can come at any time, so Ashraf residents wear more long-sleeved dresses, besides our dresses are good material so it will not make the wearer sultry. And the reason why my sister was surprised by your clothes, it wasn't because she never saw. But your clothes if in Ashraf, most used by women house flowers," continued Elena made Liana and Luca had to hold back laughter.

"What is a flower house? oh I know. It must be a high-level noble house here right? I already know. Our clothes are very good quality only a few people from the honorable circles can buy our clothes," replied Naina very haughtily.

"Huhahahah." Elena laughed so hard, "You hear that Liana? hahahaha, the house of flowers said the venerable. You're very clever."

"Curtain! I'm really smart, and what's the funny thing?"

"I don't believe this. Is there no flower house in the east?"

"Of course there is. As you said earlier, my clothes are only worn by women of flower houses, hmph! it must be a respectable woman just like me."

"Yes, very honorable. Come on!" Elena pulled Liana away from there, not forgetting she yelled at Luca, "Take your honored guest, sister-in-law."

"Is he your brother-in-law? is he the royal family?" liana asked in surprise.

"What am I doing? I don't pay respect to the Royal Family. Die me," Liana's mind was under a lot of stress while Elena was happy.

Sonia to make sure Elena did not meet with Ernest she to take Ernest out the gate of the capital directly, during the trip she closed the curtain of the train window so that Ernest could not see out.

And on the way back to her residence, Sonia accidentally saw Elena coming out of the guild. He asked the coachman to stop the train in front of Elena.

Sonia opened the car door from the inside, "Come in, we need to talk." 

Elena did not refuse, she directly got into the carriage and remained silent until they arrived at the city park. The city park is where the two sat down to spend time first as friends, just like now they get off the train and sit in the park is unfortunately not as friends anymore.

"I have a wish for you" Sonia said, opening the conversation.

"Tell me," Elena replied as she ate the bread she had bought earlier.

"Can you leave Ernest out for me? I don't want him to see you or you guys see each other. It's not because I'm jealous but because of insecurity, I don't want Ernest to be taken by anyone of me."

"Just because you're someone else's lover doesn't mean that every woman in the world is like you."

"I know you don't have to insult me. But still you're the woman who loved him, and who's always been loved by him. It's not impossible her heart will change after she sees you."

"If she falls in love with me again, I won't care because loving that is the right of the hearts of all men. Who can obstruct or take away that right? there's no."

"How long will you be here? I beg you not to stay here at least until we get married, I don't want Ernest to see."

"Sonia, I'll ask you. Why of all the men in the world do you have to take the man I love? you're beautiful, many will fall in love with you."

"It's Elena's heart. Ernest met me first, I fell in love with him earlier than you. But after she met you, and you confessed that your love for her all my hopes of being with her were lost. At first she used to respond to you, until she fell in love with you. I want to always be your best friend just that I can't, you've taken my heart."

"Then why didn't you say that in the first place? I'm a woman who sacrifices for my best friend, the proof is that I gave you the painting Ernest liked the most. If you say you love Ernest then before he falls in love with me then I'm going to stay away from him, you don't have to make me pay a heavy price for a fake friendship" explains Elena. However not being accepted by Sonia, she turned her head elsewhere as Elena looked at her.

"Even to the end I still sacrifice for you. You can be Ernest's fiancee right now, it's because I let him go of me. If not then you'll always be the woman who crawls to get love" Elena concluded. He ended their meeting there, preferring to leave before the most painful insult he could have thrown at the pregnant woman.
