Chapter 102 - I like it (2/2)
He noticed the new determination in her eyes and smirked. He was going to see how long she would last.
”I told you to call me as soon as you get home. But you failed to” He said as he moved back to his full height.
”I don't see any reason why I should always update my boss about my life” She said.
”Oh. I was your brother yesterday and suddenly, I'm your boss again?” He teased.
Once again, the embarrassment came as she remembered how she told him he was like a brother to her. But she had to stand firm now. She must!
”You didn't want me as your sister. You said so yourself” She shot back and glared at him. He laughed at her reaction. She quickly changed the topic before he could dwell on that. ”Is Heya up?”
”I don't know. She has been down since Saturday and refused to leave her room.”
”Did something bad happen?” She asked in earnest concern.
”She was scolded by Mother. But she should be okay”
”Was... it because.. because of the video?” She bowed her head while her hair covered her face.
”It isn't your fault. If I had the chance, I would take Heya there everyday” From her reaction, he knew she was going to start blaming herself for taking Heya there.
”Really?” She raised her head and brushed her hair back with her hand.
He was smitten with her beauty and that very action.. He could only nod and reply ”Yes. Really” as he looked at her lovingly.
His gaze was starting to make her uncomfortable ”I'll go check on Heya now”
He held her hand and gently pulled her back before she could leave. ”It's not yet time. You have about..” He checked his watch and said ”About 12 minutes more”
She realised he was talking about the time she usually arrived at their place. She looked at their joined hands. She didn't know what to do. She wanted to leave as much as she wanted to stay. ”Oh. Here!” She handed him the bag she had been holding. ”Your jacket”
He let go of her hand and took the bag from her. He almost laughed when he saw his million dollar suit in a nylon bag.
He suddenly remembered something and asked expressionlessly.
”Your dress yesterday... did CEO Mo get it for you?”
