Chapter 68 - Owing each other (1/2)
Their study session had ended. Although the air between them was awkward in the beginning, it eased down a lot later, and the four of them blended well.
Chaewon had already left for home, and Taehee had some matters to attend to. Jaehyun and Jinhee were the only ones who were left behind at the restaurant for dinner.
After the argument she had with Jinkyung yesterday, she was sure that Jinkyung had something plotted, and eating with Jaehyun sounded like a better option than dealing with Jinkyung's drama.
Finishing her plate of kimchi fried rice, she drank down a glass of water and was ready to go. Jaehyun, on the other hand, had finished his dinner a long time ago and was busy on his phone.
Seeing that Jinhee was about to get up, Jaehyun spoke out, "I'll drop you home."
As Jinhee was about to reply with a 'no', Jaehyun added, "It is not safe for you to go alone this late, and there is no harm in accepting my offer."

There were times Jinhee had forgotten that Jaehyun was actually a popular celebrity, and seeing how the fans swarmed around them, she remembered about it. Fortunately, he had his bodyguards to ward them off.
As she sat beside him in the backseat of his car, he voiced out, "None of this will be posted online."
Jinhee simply nodded to it.
This made her remember about how in her last life, Jaehyun made no efforts to stop the rumours with other females from spreading even when he had the power to. It was just that he did not want to.
