Chapter 211 - The Person She Saw

Elizabeth decided to rest for the remaining of the day in order to have the energy for tomorrows fas.h.i.+on show. Before she rested, she called her parents to inform then that she has arrived.

"Your grandmother and her friends will be attending the fas.h.i.+on show." The man on the other end replied.

"Will she be arriving tomorrow as well?" Elizabeth asked.

"Yes, she will, I've told her where you're staying so you two can meet," Robert Knightley added.

"Alright, Dad, I go ahead and take a quick nap for now," She said as she ended the call...

That evening, she woke up and headed to the hotel's restaurant. There everyone was waiting for her.

"Did you all have a good rest?"

"I slept like a baby and I don't know if I'll be able to sleep later." Liying cried as she chews the food she was eating.

"No worries, we can go around the city to tired ourselves out later," Elizabeth suggested which they all agreed on.

After dinner, the four of them then roamed around the city. Since she was wearing a masked and a hood over her head, it was hard for people to recognize her.

Whilst they were roaming around, she suddenly froze and her expression darkens seeing a familiar person amongst the crowd.

"Li Zi?"

" Sis Li Zi are you alright?"

Elizabeth shook her head and smiled at them avoiding them from worrying about her. She was curious if whether or not she was seeing things. As she ponders on the person she saw, the more she felt unease and her heart were aching...

'Impossible.'

When they returned to the hotel, she was still in distress about what she saw earlier. She could not help but wonder. "Why..."

She quickly got her phone out and called someone, "Come on Jackie answered the phone."

However, the person on the other end was not answering her call. Instead, she ended up sending her an email.

[CALL ME BACK!]

The night deepens, Elizabeth tosses and turns around her bed. The image of the person she was continued to flash in front of her. Memorize of the past started playing back as she clenched her chest. No matter how hard she tried to control her tears they kept rolling down like a stream.

"Why?"

The next day, Elizabeth woke up and received an unexpected guest.

"Grandma."

The girl screamed in excitement seeing the old lady and her friends.

"Dear Elizabeth you look so beautiful than the last time we saw you."

"My dear child, you've lost weight haven't you and why do you look so pale?" Elder Lady Knightley asked noticing the panda eyes.

"Cath your granddaughter is sure is beautiful."

"Lady Baron, Lady Andrews, Your Grace it's good to see you all."

Elizabeth lowered her head and properly curtsy in front of them since a member of the royal family was amongst them.

"Lizzy are you free to join us?"

"Of course grandma, where are you heading?"

"The Prime Minister's mother invited us for lunch."

"Then, I'll inform my manager and get ready but I didn't prepare any clothes to wear," Elizabeth said.

"No worries, I have prepared everything for you. Plus, there won't be a lot of people there anyways only those who know you." Elder Lady Knightley a.s.sured her.

In the Prime Minister Mother's home.

"Catherine is this your granddaughter." The Prime Minister's Mother said surprised to see the stunning girl standing in front of her. It's indeed been years and the girl has blossomed into a beautiful flower.

"Lydia, of course, this is Elizabeth," Elder Lady Knightley answered whilst holding onto her granddaughter's arms.

"Lady Duhamel, it's good to see you again." Elizabeth smiled and greeted her.

Everyone in the room present was amazing in seeing Elizabeth in person again, despite they saw news of her online they did not expect she would be so different in real life.

Everyone did not hesitate and approached Elizabeth as they converse with her, they all told stories of how they're acquainted with each other. Of course, Elizabeth recalled all of them and was delighted in seeing them again.

"Catherine, Lizzy is already old enough. Isn't she planning to settle down soon?" Lydia asked whilst looking eagerly at the girl.

"It's up to her, we aren't pressuring her in that matters. Plus, I'm sure Robert isn't keen to lose his only daughter just to anyone." Elder Lady Knightley giggled thinking about his son overprotectiveness towards his daughter.

"Robert will indeed be a hard man to please." Lydia laughed knowing the man is indeed hard to please.

Whilst everyone continued to converse, Elizabeth's mind was elsewhere... The image of the person she saw last night has not left her mind. She felt a strange feeling and she could not help but worry that something horrible is about to happen. The fact Jackie still hasn't answered any of her calls and emails worries her. What is the person she saw was not an imagination but real... How will she face that person?

Elder Lady Knightley notices her granddaughter was deep in thought, she wonders what she could be thinking and approached her.

"Darling, is something wrong?"

Elizabeth was startled as she shook her head and smiled, "Nothing, Granny... If you excuse me I need to get some fresh air."

"Go on."

Elder Lady Knightley watched as the girl went ahead but she could not help but be concerned. The expression on her face earlier worried her. Since she only expressed such expression for someone and she is not pleased about it.
