Perfect Wife (Jenlisa Adaptation)

Chapter 34

Over 1 year later.

[Aaack, wait! Excuse me! I'm sorry. I just need to get through!]

The sun was brightly shining down on the airport in Barcelona, Spain. A woman was crying out as she ran. Short hair. White t-shirt with jeans. A large backpack haphazardly shook over her shoulders. The woman was holding a white boarding pass in her hand.

Inside the airport, announcements were blaring over the speakers in both English and Spanish. They made the woman even more nervous.

When she finally arrived at the boarding gate, the flight attendant was just about to close the gate. She ran towards the flight attendant. The blonde, Spanish flight attendant laughed as she took the woman's boarding pass.

[Ruby Jane?]

Kim Jennie was now a woman named Ruby Jane. She nodded as she gasped for breath.

[Yes, yes.]

[Please come in.]

She barely made it.

The flight attendant returned the boarding pass to Ruby Jane. As she gripped it in her hand, Ruby Jane began to head inside the plane. Possibly because everyone else had finished boarding, the sunny passageway was completely empty. A stewardess was waiting for Ruby Jane at the entrance of the plane, smiling brightly.

For a little over a year, Ruby Jane had traveled the world.

She left the chaotic country of Korea and went to China. She crossed through the Himalayan Mountains of Nepal and wandered around India. From there, she went back up to Europe, then the United States, then down to South America, then to Africa. She was going through Spain and was now on her way to Dubai.

The backpack felt awkward at first, but now it was like a part of her body. Born as a lady of a conglomerate family, she began to live in terribly-maintained guest houses, went on buses with dogs and chickens in India, climbed steep mountains, and met exotic people. This became her daily life.

She didn't know what was happening in Korea. She didn't listen to any news related to Korea. She only had the smartphone she was holding, and money... The alimony she received from her ex-husband was enough.

Ex-husband. That's what she called Lisa now.

Over a year had passed since they had gotten a divorce. It had been over a year since she changed her name to Ruby Jane after confirming her biological connection with the Kim Rae Won family.

"As-salamu alaikum."

Ruby Jane didn't know how many planes she had boarded thus far. The stewardess greeted her in Arabic.

"As-salamu alaikum."

Ruby Jane stuttered and turned to the side out of habit.

[Miss, please come this way.]

The stewardess blocked Ruby Jane and gestured to the opposite direction.

[Huh? That's the business class cabin.]

[You've been upgraded. Didn't anyone tell you?]

Surprised, Ruby Jane looked down at her boarding pass. 1A. This was definitely in business class.

[Uh, why?]

[We're fully booked today. Did you board a bit late?]

Occasionally, late boarders were upgraded when the aircraft was full. This seemed to be the case here.

"Nice."

Ruby Jane accidentally let out a cheer as she turned around. She had just finished a pilgrimage to Santiago and was now on her way to Dubai. This flight was going to last for more than six hours. This upgrade came at a great time. What more could she ask for?
