A Force Love Contract With GANG LEADER

Their conversation that night ended with Kate’s yawning.

And the next morning, Tristan had returned to his normal state. Not a trace of sadness. Kate sort of understood that some things only happened in darkness. In the daytime, the spell would lose its power. They would return to playing their roles as usual.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

A few months passed, but Kate still could not adapt to her new role. After seeing that photo, she drew the conclusion that it was all because of her dimples. The character of appearance, meaningless to herself, had caused her a lot of unnecessary trouble.

She could not give up hope. Besides, there was rage inside of her too.

Jessie said it was difficult to make a person like you, but it was easy to make him dislike you.

As Kate made up her mind, she put the plan as the first priority. She was afraid she was not smart enough, so she listed a detailed plan day by day in a notebook. This would make the plan look more natural and avoid giving herself away. She checked the items she had done at the end of the day before going to bed to pump herself up and as well as celebrate.

The plan today was shopping.

She picked half a dozen shirts and ties with unique colors at the men’s clothing department. When she swiped the bankcard and signed the bill, she was exhilarated. However, as soon as she walked out of that section of the mall, she met someone.

The person she didn’t want to see most. Or it should be said the person she had the most contradictory feeling with, so contradictory that her heart hurt.

There was a young girl beside Jimmy. She had a pixie haircut, with a dark green motorcycle jacket and jeans. She looked smart and stylish.

Jimmy’s eyes swept from Kate’s face to the shopping bags she carried and then back to her face again, “Fancy meeting you.”

Kate stammered, “I…You come shopping too?”

Jimmy nodded and saw her looking at the person beside him; he introduced her, “This is a colleague from my team, Sergeant Lenham, Claire Lenham. Claire, this is Kate, Kate White.”

The girl’s eyes brightened, and she said, “You are Kate? I have heard of you…”

Jimmy coughed, and the girl stopped immediately. Kate caught sight of their tacit understanding, and her heart sank. She forced a smile and said, “You go ahead shopping. I have to go now.”

Jimmy followed her away with his eyes until she disappeared in the elevator. He heard Claire say, “She doesn’t look like that kind of person.”

“What kind of person?” Jimmy drew back his attention.

“Materialistic and pursuing vanity.”

“Who said she is materialistic and pursuing vanity? Use your energy in gossiping at work. You are a policeman, not a tabloid journalist.”

He was irritated suddenly and scolded her for a long while. Claire pouted from his unreasonable loss of temper.

When they got to the woman’s clothing floor, Jimmy’s phone rang. He took it out and walked away to listen, “Hello, Aunty…What? What did you find?” His face turned serious as he heard.

After he hung up, he turned to Claire and said, “I have something urgent to attend to. You pick one for me.” And he took a bank card from his wallet, “The password is my birthday in reverse.”

Claire opened her eyes widely, “Seriously? It is your mother’s birthday gift. How can I know what size she wears?”

“I don’t know either.” Jimmy had already reached the escalator, “Or maybe buy it another day.”

Claire stamped her feet. What a son! It would be his mother’s birthday the day after tomorrow. He needed to send it by expedited courier if he wanted it to arrive in time.

The mother should be so pissed to have such a heartless son. Claire burst into laughter when she played the movie in her mind.

She turned back to the windows and saw a model with the new arrival of spring clothing. A smart, black jacket. It should look great on Jimmy.

Jimmy ran down the escalators. When he got to the first floor and walked out of the revolving door, he looked around. He didn’t see the familiar figure.

She must have left. Jimmy pursed his lips in disappointment and then headed to the parking lot. He had something more important to do. Even if he met her again, what could he say? How are you doing?

Looking at her clothing, he could see that she had a wealthy life. And she bought clothes for that man. How sweet it was…

The sun was bright, but the sunlight could not shine into his heart. Jimmy’s heart was covered with dark clouds and shadows. He stood by his car, seeing the people come in and out for a while before he got into his car.

Out of his eyeshot, Kate stood by the roadside at a loss.

She didn’t know how she got out of the mall. The sunlight stung her eyes. She was just encouraged by her plan. The meeting with Jimmy and the way he looked at her made her heart sink to the bottom of the ocean.

Sitting in the cab on the way back, Kate no longer felt the spirit she had when she came here. Even if she successfully left Tristan, she could not go back to the past.

She never dreamed of time-reversal like in a film, but now seeing the scene going backward in the cab, she suddenly thought how wonderful it would be if the cab could take her to one year ago or even half a year ago.
