She blinked her eyes rapidly, gulping down her spit. She saw him pour water into a cup and handed it over to her.“You are not dreaming, just take” Leonard said coolly, one of his hands in his pocket.Eddie was trying to process what happened but her sick brain couldn't. She took the water from him as she was dehydrated. She drank it all in one go. She used her hand to wipe her wet lips, letting out a deep breath as she raised her head to look at the man who was standing casually in front of her.“How… do I get here?” she asked nervously and unhurriedly.“I saved your life, you owe me one” his nonchalant reply riled her up instantly making her let out a scoff while rolling her eyes.“Saved me? I wasn't… holy shit!”The memories that her brain failed to process, rushed in and fear crept into her slowly. She recalled that she saw herself in the middle of fire in the hotel room and she went insentient after that. Was someone trying to kill her? She kept herself away from trouble and even
“What do you mean? You don’t know the hospital she was taken to?! Find her or you lose your Job!” Her fiery eyes showed no sympathy as she yelled on phone. She paced to and fro the big bedroom, water dripping from her wet hair. Her mind was in chaos and breathes growled out of her nose in big huffs.“Honey! The housekeeper left on time today” her husband voiced out, opening their bedroom door and seeing the angry expression on his wife's face, he frowned. “Is something wrong?” he asked in a concerned tone, walking to his wife who had quickly change the expression on her face.“Nothing, it's work related” she replied softly like she wasn't the one who growled on phone the other time.Her husband didn't ask her questions, he simply walked to the bathroom to have a bath. When he came back his wife was applying some cream to her face. He took the opportunity to tease her as he went over and planted a kiss on her cheek.“Darling, your face is glowing. I don't know why you are using this cr
“I talked to her nicely but she didn't believe me. Was it my fault?” Leonard uttered, his eyes fixated on his phone and his legs crossed. He raised his head to look at Min Ho who was sulking because Eddie fainted again. “You should have to hold her back and speak gentlemanly to her. I wonder how Miss Anna is going to cope after you guys get married” Min Ho responded, stressing the word ‘married’. His boss has always been unpredictable. They've worked together for over nine years but Min Ho has never tried to predict his boss’ actions. “Go and talk with your girlfriend. Don't bother me” Leonard said nonchalantly, his gaze still on his phone. “Hehe! What girlfriend?! I'm a gentleman you know” Min Ho slapped his cheeks repeatedly, trying to wipe his face from embarrassment. He gasped a little after recalling something. “Mr. Lee, I've seen someone that could help with our project. He's older than Vince and he's living in America. He graduated two years ago. His name is Ethan Brooks an
He drove to Leonard's mansion, listening to DREAMERS by Jungkook, one of the band members from the popular K-pop boy band, BTS. He sang the song's lyrics in a low tone before getting down to press the gate’s bell. His brother's mansion was located in a very remote area. Apart from his house, there are no other houses except if you reach out to the main road, miles away. The first time he was here was when he came back to Korea and he had to spend a night in Leonard’s house before going to Lee's mansion. The gate opened as if recognizing him. He went back to his car and drove into the mansion. He parked his car right in front of the mansion before getting down from the car. He creased his brows before walking into the mansion. He pressed the doorbell, hissing and wondering why he had to press two doorbells. He waited a few more minutes before the door opened and Leonard came out looking dainty in the white long-sleeved shirt and pair of black trousers he wore.“What are you doing here
Logan broadened his eyes, trying to process his thoughts. He was aware that his brother didn't like Anna but what does he mean by he won't get married to her after announcing to the world that they were getting married? He took a sip from his wine, wondering if Leonard was kidding him. But Leonard doesn't joke and the situation right now… is not a situation where both of them could joke. “Hyung” he called, “Seriously, I don't know what to say.” [TN: Hyung is a Korean term for older brother used by males only. Hyung is not only used to call a biological older brother but it could also be used to call a male friend who is older that the junior male.]“I just want you to know. No one knows what the future beholds” Leonard's face was neutral like what he said was something that won't surprise anyone. He doesn't know why he told Logan his intention but it's good if he’s aware. They never had a real conversation for two years. But when Logan was in America, their relationship was better t
His eyes darkened as he read the post Min Ho showed him. He scrolled down, his lips curling into a smirk. He returned the phone to Min Ho, raising his brows. “Delete the post and find that Man” he uttered coldly. A post was made online by an anonymous source but it caused tremendous havoc in Seoul. The newbie actress who studied in America, Eddie Hemsworth who was previously involved in a fire accident was said to have set her room up on purpose after taking drugs the night of the incident. The post also said that Eddie was a drug addict and was under treatment. It was so funny that everyone believed this and the number of followers Eddie has decreased drastically. After Min Ho left the office, he called Liz. He knew that Liz cared so much about Eddie and that what was happening currently is a bad thing since Eddie didn't know about it. He had instructed Liz to keep Eddie's phone from her. This was the life of a celebrity, there are always haters who would want to drag them down. N
Eddie clamped her two hands together, her gaze fixed on them. She was feeling better now and didn't feel like staying home again. Her feet were sore and her face was void of emotion. If what happened didn't happen, she would be at the shooting site filming with Song Go Ra. She reminisced what happened during the last few days and a tear escaped her right eye. She was almost killed and Liz was almost killed too. Was her stepmother that heartless? When she regained her memories, she was disheartened. She had a stepbrother and they got along quite well because they were of the same age but she was a month and a half older than him. Her stepmother was the problem, she made Eddie’s stepbrother compete with Eddie in almost everything and soon they became rivals, both in school and at home. Eddie's mother, Daisy Hemsworth had nothing against her husband's wife because she wasn't interested in her but little did Eddie and her mother knows that ignoring Eddie’s stepmother was going to cha
Eddie could only stare at Liz who was smiling sickly at her. She rolled her eyes and grabbed her hand somewhat fiercely. “Hey! What the hell is happening?” She asked, grinding her teeth in anxious worry as her neck grew corded with tension. “Yesterday, someone posted something bad about you and I only found out when I went to the agency” Liz paused, letting out a deep breath as she allowed Eddie to drag her to the sofa. “The brands we signed with wants to terminate your contract and the director wants to change your role. I was agitated, I mean we worked so hard to get here and something bad is happening when it’s not even up to a year. I felt really sad but we got help from your sponsor and everything is back to normal.” “What do you mean got help from my sponsor? You mean Mr. Lee?” her eyes widened in shock. She used her hand to support her hand from falling off. “I owe him one again!” Liz explained to Eddie how Mr. Lee helped her and what the post contained. With a determined look,
