A month was short.
In the past, one month would pass by Lola like nothing. It wasn’t as if she were being unproductive. If anything, there was never a time she didn’t do her best.
But in the past month, so many things had happened in her life. That included entering the Zorken family and being introduced to Atlas’s men as the new madam of the family.
After that, she had been training because she wanted to become someone Atlas could rely on — someone he had confidence in, someone he wouldn’t have to worry about. Hence, she had been joining Izu’s group, as they were the most diligent among the teams.
Although from what she heard, Izu’s group was technically the weakest group the Zorken family had.
On top of the training, she had been reading lessons regarding the Zorken family and the Secret Society. Their history was long and heavy, and if one didn’t pay attention, it was easy to get lost. Not that Lola had a problem with that.
When she married Atlas, she was more than ready to take on the role of his wife. She was ready to disappear from the world and leave everything behind.
Even so, she couldn’t help but think about many things.
Lola tapped her pen against the book before her, her other hand cupping her cheek. After a moment, she blinked back to reality, realizing her mind had been drifting.
"Nothing is going into my head," she muttered. "It’s like my brain is shutting down on me."
Pushing her chair back, she shook her head and stood, walking toward the side counter to make herself a cup of coffee. While waiting, she leaned against the window and gazed outside.
The moment she did, she immediately saw Haji beating a training dummy as if it had personally wronged him. A shallow breath escaped her, arms crossed as she watched him quietly.
"I can understand his frustrations," she whispered. "Even I feel lost."
Atlas’s territory might look normal, but the manor was filled with experienced people — people who were trained, skilled, and experts in different fields. Izu and his men were known as the weakest group under Atlas, yet Haji couldn’t even beat a single member of that group.
On top of that... a month had passed, and nothing had happened yet.
While Lola was stuck learning the Secret Society and how to handle the family, Haji had to train endlessly to make himself useful here. After all, if he wanted to protect Lola or the twins — or at least be of use to them — he had to make himself stronger.
That was all.
"But I guess this peace is much better than stressing over our lives," she muttered, inhaling the aroma of the coffee beans. "Because if problems arise, then it’s definitely a problem."
And she would much rather fight boredom than face a life-and-death situation. This was still the Secret Society, and from what she had learned, underestimating it was a huge mistake.
"Besides... we still haven’t found our dearest stalker or who delivered the twins to Atlas’s doorstep."
Lola peeled herself away from the window, made her coffee, and returned to her desk to continue her review.
