Chapter 33
Triplets on Secret Mission
Chapter 33 Yvonneâs husband was transferred back to Fern City, so she naturally followed suit.
She had never been able to find a suitable replacement for Stella after she left Random Art Training Center in Ahn City.
Thus, coupled with other factors, she finally decided to close the training center in Ahn City and move everything to Fern City instead.
The training center had only started operating recently, and apart from a few acquaintances, Yvonne was still recruiting new teachers.
Simultaneously, Stella had just moved there and was looking for a job.
As fate would have it, they bumped into each other.
Sometimes, the world was just that small.
Yvonne couldnât believe her eyes when she saw Stella.
âStella Sealey?â she cried.
Her face turned pale as if sheâd just seen a ghost.
âBut arenât you already...?â Yvonne and Stella had never been all that close.
Still, Stellaâs talent and dedication to her job left a good impression on Yvonne.
Upon receiving the news of Stellaâs death, she was terribly shaken and began to mourn.
Still, they were only acquaintances , and Yvonne knew nothing about Stellaâs death other than that it was an accident.
Thus, not long after that, Yvonne moved on, and her life went on as usual.
Nevertheless, Stellaâs sudden reappearance in Fern City nearly gave her a fright! Similarly, Stella never thought that she would ever meet Yvonne again.
After overcoming her initial shock, she decided that it would be best to keep her real identity a secret from Yvonne and introduce herself as Ella Steele.
Yvonne found it hard to believe that doppelgangers did really exist.
Not only did Ella and Stella had uncanny resemblement, but their voices were identical , their dance moves and musical instruments they played were precisely the same, and even their names sounded similar! If she hadnât worked with Stella before and knew for a fact that she had died in an accident, she wouldâve been sure that Ella Steele and Stella Sealey were the same people.
Sometimes when she was with Ella, she would be momentarily confused and think that the person in front of her was Stella.
But dead people never came back to life.
Yvonne knew this, so she gradually got used to Ellaâs existence as time passed.
But still, every once in a while, an incident would occur that would make her see Stella in Ella-just like what was happening now... Yvonne remembered that when Stella was going through a divorce, her mind would be so preoccupied that she would forget to turn off the faucet, causing the back of her hand to be scalded, just as Ella had done just now.
As those thoughts coursed through her mind, Yvonne swiftly and efficiently helped Ella deal with the burns.
âWhy are you so good at this?â asked Stella, bewildered by Yvonneâs deft movements, âMy husbandâs a doctor,â Yvonne smiled.
âHe taught me all the simple first aid procedures.
As she spoke, a shadow suddenly passed over her face.
âYou really are a lot like that friend of mine,â she told Stella.
âSometimes I would mistake you for her... How is it possible that two unrelated people could be so alike? Not just your looks and voices but also your talents and your careers are similar...â She stared at Stella intently as if trying to draw out some kind of clue from her face.
This unnerved Stella, and she quickly pulled her hand away from Yvonne.
âNothingâs impossible in this big world,â Stella said.
âJust look at the news, and youâll see all kinds of bizarre coincidences! Compared to those, two people that look alike almost seem mundane!â âBy the way,âcontinued Stella with a smile, âhow is that friend of yours doing? Iâve been hearing so much of her from you that Iâm getting curious about her!â.
Yvonneâs face darkened.
She fell silent for a while before finally letting out a gentle sigh.
âShe... She died unexpectedly in an accident.
Weâve never been particularly close, but Iâve always thought that she was a great person.
She was so young too.
I never thought that she would...â Yvonne could not finish her sentence.
âIâm sorry,â Stella let out a somber murmur.
âI wouldnât have brought it up if I had known...â âDonât worry,â Yvonne shook her head.
âLooking at you makes me feel better.
It almost feels like sheâs still here.
Perhaps it was fate that brought us together.â Stella said nothing in reply.
She turned away from Yvonne as tears welled up in her eyes.
She was deeply moved that someone in Ahn City actually remembered her, even if it was just a casual acquaintance...
