Cherry and Felix had known each other for over half a year.
They got along very well and were already good friends.
They had already planned to meet when she got back to the Seoul, so she agreed as soon as Felix said that.
Felix asked eagerly, "Which room are you in?"
Cherry was about to tell him the room number when she suddenly thought of something.
Instead, she said, "Not tonight, my mom is asleep. Let's do it tomorrow instead."
Felix suddenly laughed.
"Everyone says that you sound like a little girl only because you're using a voice changer and that you're, in fact, a dirty middle-aged man.
Can you tell me whether you're male or female?"
Cherry grinned. "It's a secret."
It was already in the middle of the day when Taehyung finally slowly opened his eyes.
He checked the time-it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon.
Cherry and Mrs. Lee had already had lunch, so he simply called for takeout.
At the same time at the hotel entrance.
With a complicated look, Irene watched Gong ki hurriedly enter the lobby. She clenched her fists.
During the past few days, Gong ki 's attitude toward her whenever she called had been very perfunctory, and all he asked about was Idealian Pharmaceuticals each time.
A woman's sixth sense told her that something must be wrong.
Thus, she had trailed Gong ki early this morning. Little did she expect that she would be here.
Hotel Finest was one of the most expensive and upscale places in Seoul.
Irene quietly followed Gong ki in and saw him turning into the bar on the first floor.
He took out a wad of cash, handed it to several waiters, and instructed softly,
"...You know what you're supposed to do, right? Act according to my signals tonight!"
"Yes, sir."
After they dispersed, Gong ki took a deep breath nervously.
Then, he lowered his head and started to draft a text message.
'Hello, Miss Jung, Sorry if this is a little sudden, but I got your number from the bar on the first floor. I'd like to invite you to the bar downstairs at 8 pm.'
After sending the text message, he raised his head and looked at the setup in front of him with satisfaction.
He didn't know how he had offended the pretty man last time, but he would definitely fall for him tonight.
After all, no man would be able to resist a romantic move like this.
Seeing that he didn't respond even after a long while after he sent the message,
Gong ki thought for a while and sent another text message to his friends:
"Eight o'clock tonight at Hotel Finest's bar in the lobby. Be there or be square."
He had reserved the whole place and was asking his friends to come over and cheer for him.
However, he didn't realize that he had accidentally also selected Irene's name when he mass-sent the message.
After he left, the waiters whispered among themselves.
"What's Mr. Park intending to do?"
"He's prepared such a huge surprise. He must be intending to propose to his fiancée, right?"
"His fiancée is so lucky..."
An excited Irene's cheeks turned a little warm as she listened to their soft speculations.
A warm current also surged up from the bottom of her heart.
How could she suspect that Gong ki was being unfaithful? She really shouldn't have!
Buzz... She received a text message sound notification on her cell phone.
She looked down-it was a message from Gong ki :
"Eight o'clock tonight at Hotel Finest's bar in the lobby. Be there or be square."
Irene was in a good mood and walked out slowly.
When she looked up again, she just so happened to see Taehyung, who was dressed in his pajamas and slippers, coming out to pick up his takeout order.
His eyes were downcast, and his smooth and silky hair draped behind him.
He was fair-skinned, and his facial features were impeccably refined.
His sleepy appearance made him seem a little as if he was taking a leisurely stroll.
Despite being dressed like that, the air around him still attracted people's attention, nevertheless.
Irene's hands balled up slightly. She couldn't curb her jealousy.
How could that man possibly afford to stay in Hotel Finest?
He was definitely just pretending to be rich.
She quickly took a couple of steps toward him and reprimanded him.
"You don't even have any clothes anymore, yet you still insist on staying in this hotel.
Are you planning to seduce some rich guy here, Taehyung?
How about taking a good look at yourself first?
Do you really think you can trick people into paying for you just by using that face of yours?"
Taehyung, who was carrying his takeout in one hand and reading a text message on his cell phone in the other, looked confused.
He casually tapped twice on his cell phone and deleted the spam text messages sent by Gong ki .
Then, he said indifferently,
"Uh-huh. At least I have a face to be proud of."
His tiger-like eyes swept across Irene's face casually.
Those few words of his were very insulting.
Irene was infuriated.
She narrowed her eyes. Then, she suddenly smiled.
"Taehyung, do you want to know where that abandoned child of yours is? If you do, then I'll see you at the bar at 8 pm."
So what even if he was pretty?
Didn't Gong ki dump him all the same anyway?!
She wanted Taehyung to see with his very own eyes how Gong ki was going to propose to her!
Irene turned and left after leaving these words.
A slightly chilly look entered Taehyung 's eyes as he looked at her from the back.
8 pm at the bar again.
Hah, he would see what his precious little sister and ex-fiancé have prepared for him!
Although the presidential suite they were staying in wasn't the best of the best, it still had a kitchen.
Cherry was still growing; they mustn't eat out all the time.
The meals that they ate every day were all made by Mrs. Lee.
At dinner, Mrs. Lee prepared a healthy meal with both meat and vegetables.
Taehyung had been busy all afternoon. When he sat down to eat, he noticed that Cherry had a troubled look on her face.
She propped Cherry's chin up with her chubby hands and sighed deeply.
"Mommy, I'm bored."
Taehyung pinched his face lazily. In a slightly hoarse voice, he said,
"Why aren't you playing your games, baby?"
"It's the weekend." Cherry said disdainfully,
"All the school kids are on holiday."
"..."
The corners of Taehyung 's lips spasmed a little.
He felt that Cherry might possibly have forgotten that she was just a kindergartener.
He passed Cherry her food and asked,
"What do you want to do? I'll spend some time with you."
"It's fine. Mommy's busy."
Cherry put on a very sensible expression while her round eyes darted about here and there.
"Can you get Mrs. Lee to take a walk around the hotel with me at eight tonight?"
Taehyung pretended not to notice her sneaky thoughts and chuckled softly.
"Sure."
His daughter was very cheeky and always came up with all sorts of eccentric ideas.
She had also always been a smart and sensible child and had never let others take advantage of her.
He didn't need to worry about letting Mrs. Lee go out with her.
After they ate, the trio split up at the door.
Taehyung went to the first floor for his appointment.
When she saw that her mother had entered the elevator, Cherry took out her cell phone and sent a voice message:
"Felix, I'm out! Where are you?"
Felix 's reply came very quickly:
"Table 28 at the cafe on the first floor.
I'll be waiting for you here!"
Cherry grinned. "Okie Dokie! I'll be there right away!"
Too be continued....
