8 A question like tha (2/2)

”No, his are very much alive. We are planning on telling them of our marriage, this weekend, during his mother's 60th birthday”

Chang Wook slowly turned his head towards her. As a powerful CEO he thought she'd find a way to get signatures and leave his parents out of this but now she just invited herself to his mother's birthday party. The one that she specifically stopped him from going to. She didn't say it to him directly, but her silence says more than the actual words coming from her mouth.

”And where is that, exactly?” the lawyer asked. Looking at Ha Eun. She chuckled awkwardly and looked at Chang Wook.

”Honey, why are you so quiet over there? They're your parents, why don't you tell him where they are?” she reached her hand out towards him and placed it on his lap. Not only did Chang Wook feel extremely uncomfortable, every time he heard Ha Eun call him honey, his urge to throw up got even bigger.

He forced a chuckle ”Jeju”

”Jeju!” Ha Eun said excitedly.

”Island”

”Isla...?” before Ha Eun could ask she caught herself and Said ”Island!” with an excited tone.

She's never gone to Jeju Island. She's never gone anywhere that wasn't Seoul. She did go to boarding schools and studied abroad but she was always in a metropolitan area. What the hell was she going to do on an Island. She looked at the man, he was staring at her as if he caught her lying. She was lying through her teeth, but she wasn't going to let his gaze get the best of her.

”Well, I think I've heard enough. If you two really want to get married come back here with those signatures” the lawyer said as he walked them out into the hallway. He went back into his office and that was it.

Once they were outside both of them were startled when they saw the Chairman, right in front of them.
