Chapter 171 - Kinsey ~ Katleen

There was music playing, followed by Katleen Morse's beautiful and sexy voice. The music director was furious that Katleen could not sing as usual.

That day Katleen was supposed to do the recording for her new album. Unfortunately, Kitty couldn't focus on the recording because she was worried about her best friend.

Several hours ago, Anna called her and asked where Cathy was. A second later, Anna told her that Cathy might be going somewhere, making her doubtful. Cathy never leaves without telling her family members. Why is Cathy now leaving and making her family worried?

After asking around, she finally got the information that Anna had also contacted Steve, Mercy, and Cathy's other friends. Hearing this, Kitty became increasingly restless and could not focus on the recording.

Coming back from her touring concert tour four months ago, Kitty wished to spend time with her family and friends. She decided to take the town concert while thinking about the songs for her new album. Katie no longer wants to hold tour concerts in various places in the country. Apart from feeling tired, she also felt distant from her family.

After her contract period came up, she did not make a new one and only accepted a concert contract in town.

Unfortunately, when she desired to meet Cathy, her best friend was like someone who doesn't have a passion for living. She never even saw Vincent again. Cathy's younger sisters told her that Vincent has disappeared, and since then, Cathy's mood was getting worse.

Kitty wondered whether the couple might have quarreled and broken up? They even recently started a relationship, but their relationship has broken?

After recording for three hours, the music director decided to leave it until next week.

Kitty immediately contacted Anna to ask for the latest news about her best friend.

On the other hand, Anna was studying in a library with Kinsey when Kitty called her.

Anna knew that Kitty had contacted her to ask for her eldest sister. Now she was confused about how to answer it. She didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to worry Kitty either.

Realizing that Kitty would worry even more if she didn't pick up her cellphone, Anna had no other choice but to answer.

"Hello, Sis Kitty," Anna spoke very slowly, almost as if she was whispering. "I'm in the library right now... I'm sure Cathy will come home today... Of course, I will let you know asap once she came home... Yes, bye." Anna hung up her cellphone in relief. At least she didn't have to lie nor making Kitty worry.

"Who is it? It looks like that person sounds worried about your sister," asked Kinsey dryly as she checked Anna's work.

"She's a good friend. Well, she's like our second eldest sister. Her name is Katleen Morse." Hearing this name, Kinsey's hand that was scribbling on Anna's answer sheet stopped. "Do you know her? She's a famous jazz singer."

"I'm not that interested in celebrities. This one's wrong," he stated, still with a flat tone and expression. Then their lesson continued.

After escorting Anna home, Kinsey came to a large building. He was standing in front of the building door, staring blankly at the door. His hand reached into his pocket and picked up a box-shaped key ring with a small mic beside it. There is the writing Be at the top, followed by Frie at the bottom.

Kinsey shook his head. He should have thrown it away since he decided to join LS. Surprisingly, he never threw it away and always carried it with him. In fact, Kinsey thought of it as a talisman while on a dangerous mission. He felt he could return home safely if it were with him.

Feeling that he had been staring at the building in front of him for a long time, Kinsey decided to go home. Besides, he was sure that person must have forgotten him. However, as he stepped to leave, his eyes saw a young girl coming out of the building.

He doesn't know what his childhood sweetheart looks like when she grows up. But he remembered the girl's name well, and it just so happens that he could see thousands of photos while browsing the girl's name. That's why at one glance, he immediately recognized it.

The girl walked opposite from where he stood, and Kinsey immediately advanced towards the girl.

"Miss! I believe this belongs to you," remarked Kinsey, handing the key chain to the girl.

Without a doubt, the girl accepted it happily and thanked him. Her smile looks as sweet as he remembered in his eyes. Unfortunately, the girl was in a hurry and immediately left before finally entering a car around the corner.

Kinsey stared at the girl's back, leaving with a flat gaze. Right, it's time to let go of the sweet memories of the past. He doesn't deserve to be next to that innocent beautiful, and undeniable charming girl. After all, he needed to focus all of his attention to protect his twin sister.

Meantime, the girl who had just entered her best friend's car realized something. She recognized this hanger because she attached it to her apartment key. Therefore she accepted it happily as she believed the access to her house had fallen from her bag.

But when she realized that none of the keys were hanging on the hanger as she expected, the girl started to panic. Where did the keys go?

The girl immediately opened her bag then breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the keys to her house were still safely stored in her bag. She wondered, whose hanger is this?

Her eyes caught something different from the hanger causing her heart to stop suddenly.

"STOP!" she roared, making her friend startled and stepped on the brake suddenly.

The girl immediately got out of the car and ran to where the young man gave her the key chain. If only she remembered that person's name, she could call him repeatedly. Unfortunately, she couldn't remember it, and neither did she pay much attention to that person's face. What she remembered was that the man was wearing a black knee-length coat.

Her gaze searched for the person in the black coat, and she checked on anyone wearing the black suit. Unfortunately, all the people she intercepted were not the ones she was looking for. She often apologized for calling the wrong person to each of the men she blocked.

In the end, the girl gave up after being sure the man had left. The girl took the key chain in her bag then put it on its match. Only then could she see the words 'Best Friends' there.

Why did that person give their only sign of 'memory'? Does that person have no intention of seeing her again?

"Katleen, what's wrong?"

Katleen immediately turned to the caller, feeling sorry for having asked her friend to stop the car suddenly.

"Nothing. Sorry for asking you to stop so suddenly. I hope I don't get you into trouble."

"Please, don't worry about it. I was just shocked. Are you all right? What's with the keyring?"

Again Katleen looked at the key chain before putting it back in her bag.

"It's nothing. Let's go back."

"Are you sure you're all right?"

"I'm fine, Aiden. Don't you want to go to the museum? Let's go before the museum closes."

In the end, Aiden gave up and smiled at her. The two of them took a stroll back to the car and headed for the ancient museum.

Katleen was not a history buff, and she prefers to go to the theater or concerts. But Aiden made a bet on her. If her agency gave her a week off, Kitty would have to accompany him wherever Aiden wanted to go.

And by chance, her agency gave her one week off because the recording process did not go well. 

Kitty couldn't help but wonder if Aiden had a psychic ability.

She was also starting to wonder how she got close to Aiden, whereas previously, she would cast away any man who tried to woo her.

Katleen remembered the first time she met Aiden through social media. Their relationship was getting closer in cyberspace. Without realizing it, they have frequently been communicating for more than two years. Even Aiden has seen her photos because thousands of them have been broadcasted on every website. But Kitty had never seen a picture of Aiden before.

The information she knew about the man was that her age was quite far apart, but she felt comfortable chatting with him. She felt like she had an older brother whenever she talked to him.

Until four months ago, when Kitty was very curious and asked for a photo of Aiden, the man asked her to meet him in person. The man wanted Kitty to see it in person and not from an image.

At first, Kitty was hesitant but finally agreed with the note that Kitty would bring her manager with her to meet Aiden.

To her surprise, Aiden didn't seem like a man in his late thirties at all. It might be a bit creepy when you see the big body and some muscles that look strong in both arms.. But his handsome face and a wide, friendly smile made her think Aiden must not be a bad person.
