"Uhm, jie this is my boyfriend, Jaehyun," Fallon said. Yukhei on the other hand was looking pissed off. 

"Hi Catie, this is surprising," Jaehyun said, clearly pissed as well. "Bubs, I'm so-" Fallon said to Jaehyun. 

"Enough, I don't want to deal with this right now. Let's leave," Jaehyun said while taking Fallon's purse. "We'll be leaving first," Jaehyun said and pulled Fallon out of the bar. 

"I'll text you later, Jie!" Fallon said.

Yukhei finally stood up from his seat and took off his suit jacket. "Put it on," He said as he passed his suit jacket. I immediately wore it, not wanting to piss him off more. 

"Let's go," he said and started walking towards the exit. I just followed him to the parking lot and got inside his car. 

The ride home was awfully quiet. I wanted to speak, but he really looks pissed off. After the long silent drive, we finally arrived home. 

Yukhei pulled up to the driveway and turned off the engine. We got off the car. He was already walking towards the front door when I said something. 

"Xuxi, are you mad at me?" I said, still standing beside the car. "Who wouldn't be?" He replied.

 "Look I'm sorry that I lied-" before I could finish my sentence he cut me off. 

"I cleared my schedule today, Catie. Just to have dinner with you." 

"I know, Fallon and I have been talking about this and I know that you wouldn't agree so I didn't tell you," He just chuckled at me and said. 

"You were dancing your butt off, wearing that skimpy outfit leaving our daughter here all by herself," He replied. I couldn't respond. 

"So you're telling me because I'm now a mother I have no right to wear clothes like these?" I scoffed. 

"You could wear whatever you want, I honestly don't mind. But not all men have the same mindset as me," 

"Did you know how I felt when I heard those comments made by the men at the club earlier? and why on earth do you have to lie that you were going clubbing?" He said.

 That made me silent. I didn't know what to say anymore. I know he doesn't mind when I wear clothes like these.

He was just probably mad by the fact that I lied to him. I looked down on my feet and he sighed. He just went inside and I slowly followed him. 

"Good evening, Miss. Would you like me to prepare you something?" the maid asked. "No, I'm good. Is Luna asleep?" I asked. 

"Yes, she is Miss. She fell asleep two hours ago," she said. "Alright, good night." I entered our room, and Yukhei was still in the bathroom, probably taking a shower. 

I sat by the vanity and took off my jewelry. I also undid my hair and removed my makeup. By the time I was finished, he left the room without saying a word. I assume that he went to his study. I got inside the shower to take a bath and relax for a bit. 

After a good thirty-minute bath, I finally dried myself and exited the bathroom. I noticed that he still wasn't back, so I decided to check on him. I gently knocked on the door. 

"Come in," I heard him say. I opened the door slowly, not wanting to create any noise. "I'm going to bed," I said. 

"Go ahead, I still have a few things to finish," He replied. "It's already midnight, can't it wait?" I said. I was concerned since I know that he needs to rest. 

"No, I can't. I cleared my schedule a while ago and now I have to deal with the back lag. Now, you may go to bed," He said in a harsh tone, as he was reading a contract. 

I just gently closed the door and went back to our bedroom. I laid down, pulled the duvet, and tried to get some sleep.

The next morning I woke up to nobody beside me. I got up and stretched my arms. I stood up and decided to brush my hair first before checking on Luna. 

I also washed my face and went to Luna's room. "Good morning, love," I said. "

Hi, mommy," she replied, playing with her toys. "Do you want to have breakfast first?" I asked her. "Yes mommy," she said as she placed her toys down and went towards me. I carried her all the way down and we went to the dining room. 

"Good morning, Miss. Mr. Wong wanted me to tell you that he had to leave early because he has a meeting," the maid said. 

"Oh, did he have breakfast?" I asked. "He just had a cup of coffee, miss." She replied. "Oh, okay. You may go back to the kitchen now," I said and she went back to the kitchen. 

Luna sat down at her chair, and I served her some pancakes and blueberries. I had eggs and bacon. "Eat well, baby," I said and Luna just gave me a smile before eating her food. In the middle of our meal, my secretary called me. 

"Hi, Rachel what is it?" I answered. "Good morning, ma'am, I just would like to inform you that today's the day you have to enroll your daughter," "

I have already set the appointment for you," she said. "Great, do I have any meetings after that?" I asked. "You're booked until 5pm, ma'am." Rachel replied. "Okay, thank you." I said and ended the call.

After breakfast, Luna and I went off to her preschool where I would like to enroll her. She's already four, and old enough to start Kindergarten. 

The driver parked at the parking lot, and we got off the car. As usual, his bodyguards were still following us behind for our safety. I went by the registrar to ask for a form. 

"Hi, Good morning I'm here for an appointment?" I said. "Name of your child please," the grumpy woman replied. 

"Luna Wong, I believe my secretary has sent in her papers," I said. "Well, I do have her information here, but the Father's name is left blank. 

Shall I go through, or would you like to put some changes?" The lady asked. Oh right, I filled up the form when Yukhei and I weren't talking yet. 

"Uhm, no. I'd like to make some changes," I replied. The lady just sighed. She handed me the form and told me to come back when I was finished.

I was just filling up the missing information in Luna's form when I heard some noises coming from the lobby. Camera flashes could be heard, and voices of the reporters. 


"Why didn't you call me?"
