Felix let go of her and picked the coffee, he drank from it
“Tastes great as usual” He winked and she smiled looking over his shoulder
“What are you looking at?” He asked and looked behind too but saw nothing
So-hee sighed, “Nothing”
“Okay.. Bunny would you like to have dinner with me tonight?” He asked and she smirked
Since she’s known Felix, he never asked so politely for anything not even dinner, he would usually force her to agree
So what happened to him all of a sudden
Another prank of his?
“Nope,” She shook her head and started walking towards the door
Felix chuckled and walked behind her, he knew what she was thinking but this time, he didn’t want to make her pay
He didn’t even know why he asked her but he wanted it too
He wanted to spend more time with her not teasing her but enjoying her company and taming his heart.
His heart which had lately been thumping violently against his chest anytime he saw her
“I swear, you’re not going to pay” He urged and she turned with a smile
” Okay, I’ll come along”
“Just two of us” Felix said and she nodded
He smiled charmingly at her and opened the door then they entered
Later in the evening, Rhett returned to the office looking upset, he still couldn’t get over So-hee and Felix hugging.
“So-hee report to my office” He ordered taking long steps
“Uh Rhett, let Soo-min help you instead, Felix and So-hee left early since they were done with their work” Lucy said and he halted
What?
He turned around and looked across the room, he scoffed
Indeed they both were gone…
‘Seems she’s having less work these days, I’ll fix that’ He thought feeling waves of jealousy surge through his body
If they hugged earlier, what more would they be doing now that they were no longer at work
His heart squeezed at the thought
He wouldn’t deny that he felt something for her, he’d written a lot about these feelings in the course of his career
He just didn’t know how and when it started.
“No…I’ll just do it alone” He replied and Lucy nodded returning her gaze back to her laptop
Rhett ruffled his hair before entering his cabin

LING FEST
“What?!!” Zoey rose up from her seat, eyes almost popping out as she stared at Harold
She just got the news of how badly hurt the man she’d hired was and to top it all, he didn’t succeed in bringing back information
“You mean he got nothing at all? Didn’t you say he succeed in getting the file?” She asked now pacing about angrily
“I don’t know ma’am, seems Rhett isn’t so foolish. I have a suggestion..” Harold said and she glared at him
“Speak”
“Let’s just work on ours this time, but with bigger and more famous people…we could even get people to buy ours instead of Shine’s” He spoke cautiously but Zoey was loving the idea so she sat down and nodded
Anything to get back at Rhett and the stupid maid would be awesome
“Go on…”
Harold smiled and continued
“So…”
**
THE KIM’S**
Yu-ri rode her bicycle to the front of the house, she hopped off and without parking it properly she ran into the house
“Out, out!” Mrs. Kim said and she halted. She looked back only to see her holding a spatula in one hand while the other was across her chest
“Umma, what is that for?” She asked, impatiently, tapping her feet
“To break you big head of course, you think I didn’t see how carelessly you left your bike? Who do you expect to pick it for you?” Mrs. Kim smirked and Yu-ri pouted
“Dad!” She called out, since he pampered her very much, she knew he’d help her out
She blinked when there was no response, while Mrs. Kim stood like a soldier ready to attack
“Out, out quickly” Mrs. Kim urged but she shook her head.
“2 minutes mom, please” She begged but a hot glare from Mrs. Kim sent her running out instantly
Mrs. Kim exhaled, “My mom really suffered bringing me up, can’t believe I birthed another me”
She huffed and went back to the kitchen
Yu-ri quickly parked her bike, being quick was something she’d never done but today she had a mission…A mission to pester her hot neighbor before he locked his window
She dashed into the house and went upstairs immediately. When she got to her room, she rushed to her window and pushed it open looking straight into Moon’s boyish room
She grinned
“Moooooon, come out!” She said
After a while, there was no sight of him. She scrunched up her face and picked her bag pack bringing out some pebbles she’d picked on her way, specially for his window
She had a wicked grin on her face as she started throwing the pebbles into his room. When she got tired and satisfied with her efforts, she closed her window then proceeded to take a bath
Meanwhile, down the street, Moon and Juni were talking as they walked on the pavement. He met her in a cafe where he usually uses Wi-Fi, she was also there for the same reason. They became fast friends too
“Do you live around here?” He asked and she nodded smiling cutely revealing her one sided dimple
“Down the street” She said pointing the way out to him
” What about you?” She asked and he pointed at the next apartment to the Kim’s
“I live here”
” Oh, I’ll walk alone then” She feigned sadness
” I’ll walk you. If you don’t mind?”
“No, no, I’m just kidding…I can go on my own, bye Moon” She said and his heart skipped a beat
” Bye ” He finally mumbled staring at her departing figure.
He pocketed his hands and entered his house, no one was home. Both his parents were employees of a big company and mostly worked overtime, so he was used to staying alone
On getting to his room, his eyes twitched when he saw the pebbles laying around, even on his bed. He became red with anger, who else if not that nasty girl next door would do this…
With jaws clenched and fist folded, he stomped to his window and stared glaringly at Yuri’s own about to lock it when she stepped out of the bathroom, with just a towel wrapped around her segzy fair body
For a while, he was lost
“Fůçƙ!” He cussed and locked it with a bang
***
So-hee and Felix reached the front of her house holding hands, they had dinner and even went to the movies.
“Hey” She tapped him when she noticed he just kept staring at her. He jerked and shook his head, while his heart kept beating like a drum
“What is wrong with me?” He thought
“Are you okay?” She asked and he nodded, then pulled her into an unexpected hug
“Let’s stay like this for a minute” He mumbled and she nodded
Maybe he’s going through a rough time’ She thought and tapped his back gently
Just then Min-ji’s car drove in and stopped in front of the house. She looked through her mirror and frowned
“That’s not Rhett” She mumbled and decided to stay in the car till they were done
Felix smiled as he let go of her, he looked at the SUV
“That’s Min-ji… my best friend, maybe she’s in a bad mood that’s why she didn’t come out” So-hee explained and he nodded
“I’ll say hi another time then. Bye bunny” He said
“Goodnight” She waved and he smiled before leaving
When he was gone, Min-ji jumped out of her car, looking skeptically at So-hee
“That’s not Rhett… wait is that Rhett?” She asked and So-hee shook her head
“Oh thank God, thought I missed an opportunity to meet him… so who was that?”
“That was Felix”
“Why were you hugging him… I thought you said he always bothered you” Min-ji inquired behind So-hee as they went to the door
“Nothing, it’s just a hug” So-hee shrugged and Min-ji quickly moved to her front
“It’s not just a hug So-hee… that aside, did Rhett drop you today too?” She asked, grinning and So-hee gasped
She completely forget that she was supposed to wait for him to bring her home. The excitement of going for dinner with Felix made her forget, since it’s not everyday he volunteered to clear the cheque
This is all Felix’s fault’ She thought
“Aiish” She hit her head thinking how angry he might be
“What?” Min-ji asked
“No, I left with Felix” She said lowly and Min-ji sighed, “I h@ťě that Felix guy”
She faced the door to open it but saw a file hanging between the small space on their door, for dropping mails
“What’s this?” She picked it up and looked at it closely, it was a file. The same file So-hee had lost in the morning
“So-hee isn’t this yours?” She asked showing it to her
So-hee collected it, scanning through it thoroughly, nothing was missing, it was still intact
But how come??
She lost it right? Or maybe she had been imagining it all along?
Nope, she’d lost it for real
“Huh? How did it get back here?” She asked and Min-ji raised a brow. So-hee sighed and began explaining what happened in the morning
“And now, it’s back here, isn’t that wonderful!” She squealed after the explanation, hugging the file to herself, at least she found something to calm Rhett’s anger the next day
She didn’t notice the pissed look on Min-ji’s face as she unlocked the door and went in
Min-ji stood outside for a while, observing the area and just as she thought, she saw a man watching her from far, dressed in black suit
“How dare she?” She seethed glaring at the man
“Min-ji!” So-hee called and she reluctantly dragged herself into the house
She went to her room and dropped her bag, she sat on her bed thinking about the man she’d seen a while back
A frown crossed her face
Her phone buzzed and she picked it up. She smiled when she saw the caller, it was Ace
“Hello” She sounded excited
“Hello dear, it’s me Ace’s mother, Mrs. Heather”
Min-ji mouthed an OH
“Hello ma’am, how are you? And how’s your stay in Seoul been?” She asked
“I’m fine dear, but my stay has been boring. I’m planning on leaving soon”
“What? Ace… your son uh..” Min-ji stuttered, feeling awkward and Mrs. Heather chuckled softly
“You can call him Ace yunno”
Min-ji blushed, “Um.. He didn’t take you out?” she asked
“What does he know, it’s always work, work work” She replied and Min-ji chuckled, standing up, she took off her shirt
“I have a request dear.,. can you come have dinner with me tomorrow, we can have fun before I leave, please”
Min-ji felt her cheeks heating up as she replayed her words in her head
” Uh, okay… I’ll be late tho” She said
“Don’t worry dear, just be here… I’ll have him send you the address” Mrs. Heather squealed
They continued speaking and when the call ended, Min-ji threw her hands in the air and hopped happily in the bathroom
**
THE NEXT MORNING**
The notification sounds from So-hee’s phone kept coming on, she groaned and sat up sleepily, she picked the phone and looked at the time, barely 5:48am
She hissed and checked what the notifications were about
Her eyes widened when she saw the news
★Billionaire, Ace Heather spotted at a restaurant with girlfriend★
With photos attached. She rubbed her eyes thoroughly before looking at the photos again
“Min-ji is the girlfriend?” She smiled but frowned almost immediately, why didn’t Min-ji tell her
She jumped out of her bed, heading for Min-ji’s room, “LEE MIN-JI!!!” She yelled as she entered the room
Min-ji was curled up in bed, she pouted and faced the other side
So-hee jumped on the bed, on top of her
“Min-ji, get up and explain yourself”
“What is it So-hee, there’s still more time… let me sleep” Min-ji mumbled but…
So-hee is awake? And that too before her???
She sprang up quickly causing So-hee to roll off her body. She looked closely at her
“When did you start sleepwalking?” She asked lazily and So-hee frowned showing her the phone
“You sleepwalked here just to give me your phone…. Huh?” Min-ji’s eyes widened when she saw the content of the news
“Billionaire? CEO AJ companies? Huh?” Min-ji muttered, looking at the phone like she would enter it
“Ace Heather? Min-ji, he’s the same Ace you told me about?” So-hee squealed now jumping about like she won a lottery
Min-ji glanced at her, even So-hee knows him?
She looked at the pictures again, there’s one when they were holding hands, another when they laughed. It looked like they indeed were a thing
“This…”
“When did you guys start dating…. I always felt you’ve been secretive but this confirms it, Min-ji you have a long explanation to give”
“It’s not what you’re thinking.. ”
” Oh great, cause I’m thinking you’re pregnant already” So-hee said and she gasped
” Gosh! ”
So-hee ran to the door, “I’ll go make some tea, I feel it’s gonna be a long explanation”
Min-ji opened her mouth to speak but So-hee was out of the door already
” Oh no…” She mumbled and stood up heading to the bathroom. She turned the faucet and started washing her face
“That was why he used the face mask yesterday, it’s cause he’s a celebrity” She thought and poured more water on her face
By the time she came out, So-hee was already on her bed sipping her tea, and beside her was a tray of cookies, everything she would need for the gist
“Tell me now, I’m ready” So-hee urged
“This girl..” Min-ji sighed
