Chapter 140 - Passionate embrace [2] (1/2)

Staring at the bean sprout soup before her, Moon Jiwoo picked up the spoon and took a sip out of the soup. A solemn expression sat on her face as she did so.

It had been two days since she had last seen Oh Sookyung, and right now, she was terribly missing him. Moon Jiwoo was aware of how he was just busy with work, and that made it impossible for him to spare time with her.

But that didn't mean that her heart would be able to understand it. Moon Jiwoo's ċhėst felt quite heavy, and staring at the soup in front of her, she did not have much of an appetite for it.

Jiwoo wanted to pay the man a visit, but then again, that would make her seem too desperate for him. As much Jiwoo wanted to abandon her pride, it did matter to her more or less. It wasn't possible for her to completely ignore that.

Although bean sprout soup was something she was fond of, today, it felt quite bland to her, and after taking a sip out of it, she did not feel like tasting it further. Staring at the soup, she stirred it rhythmically while letting out a sigh.

Many thoughts began to ran through her mind in that moment.

She wondered about how she will be continuing further with rest of her life if she was this desperate over him right now, and this just seemed to be intensifying as seconds passed by.

His image flashed in her mind in that moment, and that's when, she was ready to abandon all of her pride. Maybe she shouldn't think too much of her on pride and pay him a small visit.

Oh Sookyung might be looking forward to meeting with her more than she does.

'Yeah, Moon Jiwoo, let's do that. Just pretend that you have something important to talk to him about and pay him a visit.

Then, he won't be getting any reasons to tease you about it. Ah! I can't believe that, I, Moon Jiwoo, am doing something like this. But I am sure this can't be helped.

Surely, Sookyung is missing me more than I am, and I guess, I have to be kind and grace him with my presence. After all, I have to be the bigger person in this situation.

I really feel bad for the poor him. He wants to be with me this badly that he is driving himself to work this much. Maybe I should just take pity on him and visit him.

Yes, that's what this is about. I am not visiting him because I am missing him or worried about him. It's just that pity. Yeah! There is no such thing as me being desperate for him. After all, I am Moon Jiwoo.'

Regardless of how absurd those words sounded to Moon Jiwoo, she managed to convince herself with those words and decided to pay the man a visit. With that, maybe she would even give him a piece of her mind for not at least meeting him for her a second daily.

He would have been able to manage that if he was as crazy over her as he claimed to be.

That's when, a sharp pain went through Moon Jiwoo's ċhėst, and her eyes widened due to it. All of a sudden, she found it difficult to breath, and she started to cough vehemently. It felt to her as if something was stuck in her throat, making it hard for her to breath.

While tears started to form at the corner of her eyes, she clutched on to her neck tightly, and creases formed between both of her eyebrows due to the ache that went through her forehead.

Finding it difficult to bear this, she wanted to call out for help, but it was not possible for her to do so. With her losing her voice, she was only able to cough in that instant.

She wondered why none of the maids in the kitchen was responding to her coughs. Although she wasn't able to say anything, she was sure that the sound from her coughs was enough to alert them in this instant.

This either meant that they were ignoring her or they were not present in the kitchen. The chances of both of that happening was odd since Oh Sookyung ordered them to pay special attention to her, but right then, Moon Jiwoo wasn't at the state to think about all of that.

She knew that she had to get help quickly.
