"What do you mean bribe her father with money to get her daughter to go out with you?"

Jeno was shameless in asking this favor to his father but it was the only way he could think of since his father is a powerful man.

"Father, I am only asking for a simple favor. Prehaps, go talk to Hana's father and tell him to tell her daughter to rethink her decisions about declining my offer to her." he asked of his father.

"If she declined already then why are you still forcing her to go out with you, son?"

"Because I can't accept it!" Jeno responded.

"You can't accept rejection? Son, you are still young, don't stress yourself over this young lady. You'll meet a lot of maiden soon enough." he said to him.

"But I really want her, father." he said. "Please, help me. Do something about it, I'm your only child." he said.

"What do you want me to do? I cannot control these things son." his father explained.

"Yes, you can." he opposed. "You're the mayor of this town and you can tell the people what to do."

"A mayor's job is not to tell his people what to do to satisfy his wants and needs. The mayor must be the leader of the town, the role model, the one who helps his people but most importantly, the one who listens to his people..." he lectured Jeno. "Not the other way around, son!"

Jeno just rolled his eyes at his father and looked away. "I am disappointed with your thinking, Jeno." his father said as he stood up from his chair.

"How are you going to become a mayor of this town someday if you're taking advantage of your power and position?!" he went infront of him but Jeno didn't even glance at his father.

"Shame on you, Lee Jeno!"

Today, Shotaro and Hikari invited Hana to the seamstress to measure her gown for their wedding. While Hana was fitting for a gown for the wedding, she heard Hikari and Shotaro's conversation.

"So he's not going to the wedding?" Hikari asked Shotaro.

Shotaro shrugged his shoulder. "I am not sure. But he did told me the other night that he wasn't sure if he could make it on our wedding."

"How come?"

"He said he would be busy that day." Shotaro explained, there was a hint of sadness in his eyes. "Knowing Sungchan, I know that he just doesn't want to join gatherings and formal events, where you have to wear a suit. You know him, he likes to be casual all the time."
