Mrs. Pei Wants to Return to Countryside

The Story

Alexander Sterling accidentally drugged Emily Rosewood outside, leading to an intimate encounter while she worked the farmland. Driven by a sense of responsibility, he left his heirloom necklace with her, promising a formal marriage if she ever sought him out using the item. Emily, however, disregarded the jewelry and told no one about the incident. After changing her clothes, her friend discovered the necklace by chance. This unexpected find led the friend to cross paths with one of Alexander’s subordinates, setting a new chain of events in motion.
