Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 152

Melanie is busy now.  Before they just make a simple checkup on Lia but now with the help of her acquaintance, they took Lia blood to see if she really is okay and done several full health checkups.  Only after all result is out, Melanie finally can breathe in relieved.  Really, she is thankful that Lia is all alright after this past 25 years.

“Melanie, let’s talk.” Professor Do-Yun then ask for her after they settle everything for today. She knew what he wanted to know anyway, then willingly followed Professor Do-Yun into his office.

Sitting in the chair, in front of her senior making her feel a bit nervous even though they are already working for a decade now.

“Spill everything to me now.  I know there’s something that I didn’t know here.” Professor Do-Yun asking her right away just after they got sitting.

With a soft sigh, Melanie started her story.

“Lia is actually a princess in the other world. Daughter of one of the powerful kings in there. I actually didn’t really know what is happening here. I didn’t know that Lia is not really their daughter. All that I know is the queen is really giving birth to daughter 25 years ago from the story that I know. Something is missing and I need to find what. ”

Professor Do-Yun is actually the one and only person that knows about Melanie being injected with the red meteor and that is why Melanie did not hesitate to tell him what happened.

After what happened 10 years ago, after Alex leaves her outside in the wood close to their burning lab, Professor Do-Yun is the one who finds Melanie unconscious lying on the ground. He didn’t really know what actually happened, but seeing Melanie’s weak state at the time with swelling in her hand that he knew as a result of the needle that seemed to be done harshly, he took Melanie along with him to the hospital belonging to a friend that he trusted.

When Melanie wakes up, Professor Do-Yun admits to her that he had to take her blood when she was unconscious to see if anything was wrong with her body system, and finds particle belonging to the red stone in her body. He knows that very well as he is the team leader who research the red stone anyway.

That time, as Melanie feel so confused and needed support from someone that she knows she can trust, she tells him everything. And Professor Do-Yun never judging her even though he is also a scientist who only believe in fact. Until now he is still loyal and be by her side.

He is actually feeling guilty about what happened to Alex before. He suppose to report Martin to the higher up when Martin shows the bad attitude and forcing his idea to Alex before. That is supposed to be a sign of a red flag to him, but he just ignores it as he never thought Martin will really do the bad things and just know how to talk. But its look like it wasn’t the case at all.

So when he knows what happen to Melanie and seeing her feel lost, he has just offered a help to her. To cover up his guilt on Alex even though Melanie didn’t know that.

Seeing Professor Do-Yun just kept quiet there Melanie continued her words.

“She had just married one of the princes there. Which is also one of the patients under our monitoring.”

Hearing this, Professor Do-Yun frowned a little. He didn’t know what to said to that.  Complicated or interesting?

“Which one?”

“Ray, who participated in new drug production in a lab located in the US after being pushed by his parent who are the shareholder of that program.”

“Hmm… The project is suspended and all of the people involved in that are arrested by the police and imprisoned including his parent right?”

“That’s true. He is 30 years old now and its already 12 years him being in the sleeping state.”

“It’s shameful that all of these innocent people are in this kind of state because of their own parent greed. I wonder what will happen if all of them wake up and see their parent is in jail for life. Only Ethan have a good parent here. ” Professor Do-Yun is remembered there as Ethan parent still fight with whoever done this to their son until now.

Melanie just looked down. Sometime when she thinks about that, it also make her heart ache for them.

“But this girl is more in a pathetic state. She live a good life in the other world, but she might be confused if one day she wakes up in this world, which is different from the world that she knows her entire life.”

Melanie was a little taken aback now. She didn’t think about that at all. But what Professor Do-Yun said just know really make her realize about that. If she becomes Lia, she probably didn’t want to be here. She has been raised since she was a baby in there.

Melanie started to sigh, deeper now while holding her head that now ache again.  Looks like she need to take another painkiller after this.

“Are you going to tell her about this when you went to that world?” Professor Do-Yun asks her.  Feeling curious in what she is going to do next.

“I don’t know. I can’t seem to bring myself to tell her this.  This news probably to shocking for her to know.” Melanie sound weak now.  She can’t even think straight.

“I know a friend who manages an orphanage and he owe me something making him cannot refuse my request for help. My plan is to register Lia at the orphan, but as she is already 25 years old and it probably hard to do it in legal way and I happen to know you have someone that good in hacking what so ever, so can you ask that person to register Lia at the orphanage making it like she been there forever and register her as my adopted child. At least it will help her with her identity when she wakes up one day. ”

“You will help me that far?” Melanie asked Professor Do-Yun there. She seemed unable to believe what she was hearing at the time.

Professor Do-Yun just takes a breath there before saying,

“I can’t stand still when I know I can help with something. I also never got married and didn’t want to, my one and only sibling already died last year also didn’t get married. I also didn’t have any parent to take care of as they also already died. No any other family too. I just want to do a good things before I also leave this world. At least, she didn’t have to worried about money and property that I’m sure enough for the rest of her life. Of course it’s not as much as her father in that world who is a king. But still… ”

Melanie was really touched then. She almost in tears hearing that. One of her problems is solved just like that in the instant. He is really her rescuer.

“If you are really serious about that, then I will do it after you give me the information about the orphanage.” Melanie said.

Seeing her relieve face there make Professor Do-Yun just smiled.

“You have it hard all these years. My act is nothing compared to what you have done and fight for. Just… take care of yourself well Melanie.” He advised.

Melanie nodded there.  She is determined more than ever now.  To fight till the end and saving all of this innocent people.  She will not let any effort and all of help that she got  went to waste.

After a long conversation with Professor Do-Yun there, Melanie enters her office and finds that Beom-Soo is sound asleep on the sofa in her office room.

Melanie was only able to smile pityingly at the sight of the man. She didn’t think that she will take a very long time before coming here that is why she asks him to wait for her inside her office. But seeing him sleeping soundly there, she was a little relieved because she knew last night the man seems not sleeping at all.

“At least you can rest here.” Melanie murmurs to herself.

She just waits there and giving the man some more time to sleep while she looks at the work data she has collected.

After about 30 minutes later, Beom-Soo finally writhed there, waking up from his sleep. Seeing Melanie, who is smiling, looking at him, Beom-Soo quickly got up and continued to sit there. Feeling a little embarrassed.

“Slow down. Its not like this is the first time I saw you sleeping.” Melanie said that. Teasing him.

“When that you get here?” He asks with his hoarse voice now.

“Em… about 30 minutes. I have already finished everything here today and I have a work for you.”

“What work?”

Melanie didn’t say anything and just smiled slyly there.
