31 You are going to come with me, right? (1/2)

”Oh? You're on the news again,” Oh Jaehyun said as he handed his Lady Boss her tablet and some documents.

Chung Ji-Eun looked at the big television screen on the wall of her suite, frowning a little. The screen showed pictures of her and her Father when they had attended various events from about five years ago. Since the paparazzi were not able to take any recent photos of her, they just settled on digging up old news about them and using the images from there.

”Wow... They really can't get past our security personnel, can they?” Jaehyun said. ”You've picked your team well.”

”Give them a raise,” she said nodded, thanking her staff wholeheartedly in her own way. ”They're responding very well to pressure. I can imagine how stressed they are handling people like the media.”

”I'll go talk to Manager in charge,” Jaehyun nodded in agreement, turning away from the television.

He checked the time on his own phone before calling the Hotel Manager. After the usual pleasantries, he informed the Manager about his Boss' instructions. And just after three minutes, everything had been settled according to her instructions.

He checked his phone again.

3:25 pm.

Jaehyun looked over to where she was sitting and noted her listless form watching the news.

She must be really tired, huh? He felt a rush of worry for her.

She has been working non-stop for the last couple of days, doing conference calls, closing deals, and acquiring resources for her latest venture. Using her inhumane Uberman sleep schedule, she made it possible to be able to close a record of seven deals in just two days and she did it all on her own.

Moving her back to her hotel suite proved to be the only way Jaehyun can convince her to rest a little and to eat her meals on time. Since the Group's business review ended and all relevant documents have been approved by her, Oh Jaehyun took it upon himself to move all of her stuff back into her suite. It has been a few days and she's yet to come out of the hotel or to go home, but he supposed she won't be doing either given the amount of work she wants to complete before her actual wedding.

It was from her suite where she watched all the relevant news about her 'wedding' and sufficed to say, the Song family did not disappoint, really going all out with their announcement.

”Ji-Eun-ah,” he moved closer to where she was seating, spacing out in front of the television. ”Do you want to rest for a while before you meet up with your Mother-in-law?”

”What?” Her eyes darted from the screen to his face, mild surprise showing.

Jaehyun opened his phone and checked her schedule.

”You have your dress fitting at 4:30 pm,” he said carefully. ”I packed everything you need for the fitting, so all you have to do is get changed to go out later.”

”Do what?” He asked, a bit confused.

She made a gesture towards her chest and downwards, surprising him and causing his face to turn slightly red from embarrassment. ”The underwear,” she said. ”You must have been embarrassed, Jaehyun.”

”Oh, my Lord,” he sighed.

'Yes, I did prepare everything. Including the damned undergarments the stylist told me to pick up and pack', he thought.

The stylist had called him yesterday to have him pick up a set of clothes for her to try before her fitting. Thinking nothing of it, he went over and asked to see his 'Boss' clothes. Needless to say, Ji-Eun had a good laugh out of it when he came back, red-faced and sputtering nonsense, all the while trying to un-see everything.

'Well, at least she relaxed a little,' he had thought.

After a few seconds of silence, Ji-Eun sighed and said flatly, ”Alright, I'll go...”

Hearing the change in her tone, he checked her expression once again. Seeing her sudden cloudy expression, he immediately put his phone down.
