The dream was a memory

The following few days were tense and uncomfortable for both Shen and Lina. 

After their argument at the fair and in the car back home, they two had hardly spoken even though they slept in the same bed. 

The misunderstanding seemed to create a vast distance between them. 

Shen stayed at work much later than usual to work on his upcoming meeting with the Lim heir and the investigation on his escaped brother, while Lina continued her research at home about Magnolia Holdings with Mei. 

She also kept up with all her case work and sent instructions to her teams through Mei. 

She felt betrayed by Shen, that he didn't trust her to look after herself and chose to stifle her like a prisoner at home when she had responsibilities back at work. 

On Friday night, she lay awake in bed, unable to sleep, thinking about the plan she and Mei were going to put into action the next day.
