Tell Me about Rhea Harrison

"No. That one is different. You shouldn't even compare him with them. He is on another level!" Anne Caleb answered her immediately. She seemed too eager about it.
"That's right. Not only because he is more handsome, still very young, he has also proven to be a good man. He is such an amazing husband and father," Malenie Hudgens added.
Donna George nodded beside her. "Approved!"
It was the same as Theodoros' story so far. However, Lillianne felt like she needed to probe deeper into it.
"Why are you guys so sure about that? Especially about his late wife. Were you even here when she was still alive?" She tested them again.
"Yes, I was!" Anne Caleb raised her hand. "The tragedy happened in my first year joining here when I was still a staff member. Even though at that time I never met them in person, I always heard good stories about them. I even remember how very gloomy this company was when the news dropped after the long wait for the birth of their first child. She was here even longer," she said while pointing at the secretary of the CTO.
Donna George nodded. "Yeah. At that time I was the secretary of the head marketing manager, so I remember that it was exactly the third year since I became an employee at Pageant Corp."
"Have you ever met her? I mean, the late Rhea Harrison?" Lillianne became more curious.
"Of course, she often visited this office back then. Not only to see her husband but also to meet the former secretary of the CMO at that time who was her friend. So I often met her. She even knew my name," said Donna George prided herself on that fact.
Oh, so there were direct witnesses at that time? That's good. This was what Lillianne needed most.
"What kind of person was she?" Lillianne asked again.
"Uhm, well... she is very beautiful. If you have often entered Mr. Davies' room, you must have seen her photo hung on the wall. They suited each other. Not only that, she had a good personality too; very intelligent, easy to get along with, and also had good communication skills."
Well, that was nice, but not the kind of answer Lillianne needed. She was not interested in her as a person but as the wife of Blaze Davies.
"What about her towards Mr. Davies? I mean, you always praise him as a perfect man because of his love for his family. Something like that wouldn't have happened if Mrs. Harrison hadn't done the same to him. She must be a lovely wife too, right?"
"Yeah, I heard that too!" Anne Caleb spoke again. "They were like an ideal couple. At that time, I even heard that if you want to see a real soulmate, you just need to pay attention to them. It's like they were made for each other."
What? A soulmate? Made for each other? What nonsense. What do humans like her know?
Blaze Davies or Leander was her mate. They already liked each other so much when they were teenagers, that the male proposed her to be his mate. He just happened to encounter Rhea Harrison before meeting her. The phrase soulmate of Blaze Davies belonged to her only.
However, she will ignore that for now. Lillianne decided to focus on the point being made.
So, even Rhea Harrison was also known as the perfect partner for Blaze Davies. Their loving relationship was also so well-known to the employees.
But, how did she end up pregnant with someone else's child instead? What worse was that she didn't even tell Blaze so the man continued to raise Evelyn Davies as his child.
It was so confusing.
"But why are you so curious, Lillianne?"
Her thoughts were disturbed by Melanie Hudgens' voice. The woman had been watching her since earlier with her annoying grin.
"Why are you so interested in Mr. Davies and his late wife like this?" She added in a playful tone.
"Isn't the answer obvious? Mel, why ask unnecessary questions?" Anne Caleb chuckled from her spot. "She is just like you when you first joined this company. You were attracted to that handsome and rich widower, and hoped he liked you back."
The three women laughed loudly in unison. That made several other patrons at the bar glance in their direction.
That fact surprised Lillianne. "You were?"
"Yeah..." Melanie Hudgens didn't even try to deny it. "I mean, who wouldn't have a crush on him? He is rich, hot, and even charismatic. He has everything every woman wants in a man. Too bad, he is too perfect that it becomes a weakness instead."
"That's right. While that is a good and praiseworthy thing to be loyal to your deceased partner, it's still not good for the rest of the women in the world like us. I mean, yeah, I understand that you love your ex-wife and don't want to move on from her. I know you are so devoted and love your family, but... that's just not fair. What about us? We also have the right to have a man with specs like you,” said Donna George with no less dramatic.
'Well, that's because he was a werewolf with a character who only loved one mate, namely a Luna as beautiful as me.' Lillianne held back her jealousy again by suppressing those words. 'It's only temporary, though. Of course, it will be different with me. I will get him because he is supposed to be mine.'
"That's why I advised you to give up, Lillianne." Melanie Hudgens spoke again. "It's not because you are not attractive enough, but he is the one who won't give you a chance. He will never change. So, I suggest you forget about your feelings and just fight to survive as his secretary instead, so you don't have to waste time like I did."
As if it was that easy. She didn't know that Lillianne had seen billions of other men in various parts of the world over the past seven hundred years, but none of them impressed her. She even had another mate who was also hot and charismatic, but she didn't want him at all. All she needed was her Leander.
"Well, that's my business. But, that's not what I was asking you. I am still curious about his late wife, though. Donna, can you continue your story?"

'So, Rhea Harrison was also well known to the employees at the company. They were like an ideal couple who love each other, and that becomes Blaze's reason for closing her heart to a new love until now. They just don't know that it was not as beautiful as it looked.'
While thinking about that, Lilianne stopped at the building she had visited a few days ago. It was Evelyn Davies' school. Coincidentally, because it was close to the bar, she stopped by there.
It had been quiet, though. It was already very late for elementary school students like that to stay around.
'What should I do to find out about it? Unfortunately, I am not an Alpha King who can travel back in time to see Rhea Harrison in person. I can only rely on other people's testimonies that cannot be proven true. Ah, this is frustrating me.' Her gaze then focused again on the building fence. 'It means now I can only focus on Evelyn Davies instead. I have to find out for myself, as well as use it to get Blaze's attention. But how can I do that?'
While thinking that, a man came out of the yard with a rolled banner in his hand. It was then attached to the fence so that it could be seen by people passing by.
'We are looking for a teacher. Visit our website below to apply.'
Lilianne immediately raised her eyebrows when she read that. A grin appeared on her face instantly.
‘Bingo!’
