88 Let The Games Begin (2/2)
She sent Desire a grand smile, blinding everyone who could see. The girl was absolutely gorgeous. The most beautiful person anyone had seen in their lives.
”Thank you so much! I-I cannot even express how much I love the look,” she gushed.
Desire pushed her gla.s.ses up her nose. ”You don't need to thank me. I was paid to make you beautiful.”
Despite the scary aura coming from Minhyun due to her negative comment, Desire did not falter. Instead, she kept her straight face and pretended that she didn't see him.
”I mean yes you were paid,” Yoona said. ”But from what I could tell, you put a lot of thought and love into making me like this. No matter how much money was given, in the end, I could see the sincerity. For that, I am really grateful.”
Desire let out a cough, covering her mouth with her fist. This girl… She was really something wasn't she?
Of course she was. After all, she was Minhyun's date to the gala.
”It is nothing. I'm an artist you know,” the designer said while avoiding eye-contact. She let out a sigh. ”You two have fun at the gala then.”
Yoona nodded happily. ”Okay.”
Minhyun whispered into her ear, his hot breath fanning against her skin. ”That is our cue to leave. Let's go.”
He grabbed her hand, locking their fingers together.
He sent a nod to Desire. ”We're leaving.”
”Goodbye.”
Desire watched the two exit the room and the response of all the people watching. Those two were really something to grab the attention of others so easily.
She let out a small laugh. Knowing the partic.i.p.ants of tonight's gala, Yoona's appearance was going to make things interesting. Very interesting.

”Are you ready to exit the car?” He asked.
Yoona looked out the window. A large white mansion was in their view and a few reporters and workers were outside, waiting for people to arrive. Although she couldn't see the partic.i.p.ants yet, the sound of music and chatter had penetrated through the gla.s.s. The show had already started and they were late.
She let out a shaky breath before sending him a determined look. ”Yes. I am one hundred percent ready.”
The driver walked around the front of the car to open the door for them.
After Minhyun took a step outside, he brought out his hand to help her exit.
A smirk played on his lips, eyes glowing with amus.e.m.e.nt. ”Then. Let the games begin.”
