Chapter 23: Voyage
Morning came and my boss arrived half an hour earlier than what he planned. I hurriedly fix myself and couldn't even formally bid goodbye to my aunt and uncle as well as to my cousins because they were all still asleep when we left the house, heading to the airport. I just texted them and I was surprised when Maegan was up early to send me a reply.
"Ate, don’t forget my souvenir, huh? Just wrap Oppa Lee Min-ho."
I laughed at her message. Her silliness really amazes me at times.
"What's funny?"
I stopped giggling and quickly slipped my cellphone into the sling bag next to me. When I glanced at him, his gaze was only focused on the front with his eyebrows furrowed while driving. But why does he still look so handsome?

Chapter 24: ImperiousA churning stomach woke me up. When I opened my eyes, the white ceiling welcomed me. Then I looked around and my forehead furrowed because I was already in a hotel room.But how did I get here? Don't tell me . . . he carried me from getting off the plane to going up here? Oh, God! That was too embarrassing! I slept too much!My stomach churned again so I get up and quickly looked for something to eat. But I couldn't find anything. I don't even know the hotel's food service line either. So I don't have a choice but to dine out.I wore a thick cardigan before leaving the room. I think it is winter season here in Korea so the wind breeze is freezing cold.I immediately headed to the restaurant when I got off at the hotel. I didn't even bother to check at my

Chapter 25: JealousIn the following days, I was always just tailgating to my boss as well as Traise while overseeing the construction of the C-Mall and C-hotel. Both of them are hands-on and I can see how serious they are with this project. And that’s what impresses me whenever the two of them are working together. So I am trying my best to help them in the way that I can.For two consecutive days, they did the planning together with the Engineers and Architect that were assigned for the project, and then they went for a site tour. From time to time, I get involved in their conversation especially when I am asked for ideas, and then bring them some snacks. But often, I am just beside them silently listening while waiting for them to finish.On the third day, their schedule was a bit loose except for my boss who was still talking on the phone from time

Chapter 26: SottishIt is almost midnight and I am still wide awake. I was just tossing and turning in bed since earlier that I have eaten my dinner together with Traise. I could not fall asleep as my conscience is eating me up. It is because my boss has not returned to the hotel since he went out earlier at six.Our room is just adjacent to each other. Perhaps, he has chosen it that way so he could monitor me or what. That is why I will know if he got back already. But the other room is still quiet up until now, so I am sure he has not come back yet."Will you stop worrying, Lura Elise?! Your boss is old enough not to be worried about. He can take care of himself," I convinced myself just to calm down and then tried to turn a blind eye about him.But half an hour later, I was still not visited b

Chapter 27: Nirvana (Warning: SPG ahead! This chapter contains scenes that are too explicit for young readers. Please read at your own risk. J) I don't know what I would feel after hearing what he just said. If I will be happy because it means he likes me too—he won't be jealous of me and Traise like that if he doesn't have feelings for me, or if I will be upset because some part of my brain says he is just toying with my feelings. It is hard to believe that he is acting like this towards me when he already has a girlfriend. What does he want to accomplish? Does he want me to be a third party? No! I am not that kind of woman and I am not selfish. I won't let myself be the reason for someone's heartache. I can’t take that. So instead of believing what he says it is better for me to s

Chapter 28: ConfessionThe sun was up outside but here I am, still lying in the bed. I feel like I am dreaming. I never imagined this moment would happen—to watch my boss in his deep sleep.Far from his usual form, I am seeing him right now. His forehead was not furrowed. And his face was gentle as if he were sleeping like an angel.I smiled sweetly when he moved slightly. His long hair was tangled so a few strands of it fell into her eyes. I raised my right hand then moved it aside gently and returned it to its original position.When I am done, instead of lowering my hand, it moved spontaneously as if it had a brain of its own and caressed his face—from his thick eyebrows, sharp nose, up to his thin red lips.I swallowed hard at the same time my heart pounded erratically as I focused my

Chapter 29: Wrath1 message received from Handsome TraiseI almost rolled my eyes when Trey's contact name appeared on my phone screen. I didn't notice that he had tampered with my phone while we were on the plane so his registered name in my contacts has changed.I shook my head as I read his text while grinning. We already sent him to his condo unit because he didn’t bring his car.From: Handsome TraiseSun - 2:40 pmWhere are you, Lu? Damn! I'm so tired. Fucking jet lag. I'll just take a nap. Beep me back once you got home. Take care. :*I was typing my reply to him when someone broke the silence inside the car I am in right now.

Chapter 30: Veracity "What are you, Elise? A plumb? Come here," he muttered in a serious tone as he gestured his hand in the vacant space beside him. We are now here inside his office. He is sitting at the couch while I choose to just stand near the door so that whatever happens I can easily run away. I am a bit hesitant to come closer to him because based on his serious aura right now, he doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Perhaps, he was really mad about what I had posted on I*******m. But I don’t understand why he would be. I don't see anything wrong with that. Traise just simply put his arms across my shoulder while I smiled at the camera. So, I really don't get it why would he be furious at that. I sighed and seriously looked at him. "No, I'm fine here,"

Chapter 31: Communiqué"Damn, sweetie. You cooked so devine! Let’s get married!"I suddenly swallowed a whole piece of marinated chicken when I heard what he just said.I coughed a lot of times while I am hitting my chest because of its tightness. He was then got alarmed and immediately attended to me. He picked up the prepared bottled water from the coffee table where we were eating and then gently gave it to me while caressing my back.After a while, he clicked his tongue. "Are you okay? I told you to eat slowly," he scolded me, his voice reflecting concern.I swallowed once again and then heaved a sigh of relief when I can already breathe properly. Then I put down the bottled water back at the coffee table before I faced him and awkwardly smiled at him."I'm fine," I assured him. He th
