"Hyun-Shik?" Ji-Eun turned just in time to see a familiar figure walking towards their group.
She narrowed her eyes at the man walking towards them, observing him carefully. With an unhurried gait and unbridled attitude, she knew she wasn't seeing things. This person really was the man from yesterday, the one she proposed to.
"Oh gods..." she whispered. "Song... Right."
Song Hyun-Shik... is Song Min-Ji's nephew, huh? Who knew...? I should have guessed they were related. Well, nearly a fifth of the populace had the same last name anyway. How would I know...? Thoughts ran through her head as she watched him come closer.
She felt a wave of headache crash over her entire system.
Ji-Eun gave Jaehyun a sidelong glance and he stepped up to her at once. He proceeded to unlock the tablet he was carrying and pretended to show her something really important.
"This was the guy you proposed to?" He asked in a low voice. "The Song guy?"
Ji-Eun nodded to him, all the while trying to ignore his slightly amused tone. "Did you know anything about this...? I mean, the Madam and him being related?"
Jaehyun just smiled gently and nodded.
"I know you've done your research. You could have..." Ji-Eun whispered. "Well... Really, it's not your fault. I haven't read the whole report. I just read the company information. Oh my God..."
"I thought you already knew," Jaehyun said thoughtfully. "And I've cited their family relations while we were driving over earlier."
Did he? Really? Ji-Eun tried to recall their earlier conversation during the car ride, but she quickly concluded that her mind had been otherwise pre-occupied that the information he gave her just flew over her head.
"I'm not really sure I want to see this person after I drank over the fact that I asked him to marry me..." she inwardly sighed as she whispered back to her secretary.
"Ah..." Jaehyun secretly patted her hand. "Play nice, Ji-Eun-ah."
At that, he stepped back and returned his stoic mask in place while she continued to stare at her secretary blankly.
"Ji-Eun?" She whipped her head to look at the man calling her name, recovering quickly and hiding her surprise.
In no time at all, Hyun-Shik had reached the group and had already recognized her. She gave him a small smile and bowed to greet him.
"Hyun-Shik, we meet again."
As the two greeted each other warmly, the Madam stepped up to her nephew. "What a surprise! You two already know each other."
Hyun-Shik nodded as he pulled something from behind him. "For you, Auntie." He said as he gave the Madam a small bouquet of fresh flowers. "You've always loved these."
"Oh, this boy..." Her smile grew wider at the prospect of the gift.
"If I'd known Ji-Eun would be here, I would have brought two instead of just one..." Hyun-Shik gave a small laugh. "You should have told me about it when you invited me over, Auntie."
Ji-Eun's eyebrows shot up in surprise. Madam Song had invited him?
"And ruin the surprise?!" The Madam laughed. "I thought I should introduce you to each other, but I guess, you beat me to it."
"We only met each other recently," Ji-Eun explained. "We had a meal with my Father... and talked about business."
"I see... That's nice to hear!" The Madam's eyes twinkled. "Anyway, now that you're here, Hyun-Shik, come with us for a bit. I would love to hear your opinion on some things as well..."
Their group bade the photographers and the others farewell. And as the Madam signaled everyone to follow her, Jaehyun noticed that the Madam's nephew paused for a moment to look back at the direction of the changing room. His line of sight directed him to the model who introduced herself earlier.
Bae Yuri? Jaehyun thought as he saw the model pouting at the male heir. Looks like those two knew each other.
But then again...
Jaehyun reigned in his emotions and kept the information in the back burner as he followed his mistress out of the studio.
Best to continue with the research before telling the pint-sized fairy anything... Jaehyun thought to himself as he observed Ji-Eun walking in front of him. Looks like she missed out on something here... His eyes narrowed at the thought as he watched her careful smile.
