Billionaire's Queen

Nineteen

Upon arriving at the airport the bodyguards that Jiyong have hired are already in place. He usually takes his own jet plane but did not want to offend his wife. He understands that she is being sponsored by her agency and did not want to overstep his boundaries. He kind of already has by upgrading their tickets to a first-class but he doesn't really think that it will be a problem as long as they don't find out.

Unknown to Jiyong that Yung-Guk's trusted knights are also in place. He has enabled five of his best fighter knights to safeguard the princess. They are also just shadowing her around. Yung-Guk is aware of the princess's work schedule because he has someone who is working very closely with the princess who reports back to him. He has employed an expert female secret agent to accompany princess Dara at all times.

Chaerin is a twenty-three-year-old female secret agent. She has graduated from the top of her class at the age of twenty. She was recruited when she was seventeen due to her martial arts expertise. Yes. Chaerin is indeed a secret agent who's been selected by Yung-Guk to assist and protect the princess. Before assisting Dara as her assistant Yung-Guk have already arranged everything prior to their arrival in the country. Chaerin has always wanted to work with famous celebrities and lucky enough she got the assignment and started to work at JK Agency months before. Dara is also aware of this but they have both downplay it for her safety.

"Miss Dara. Mr. Kim is on the line asking for you." Chaerin told her.

Jiyong's lip formed into a thin line upon hearing his old friend who betrayed him. Anger quickly flashed in his eyes and disappeared as it quickly came. Dara notices this but did not say anything as she took the phone from Chaerin.

"Hello," Dara said.

"Hi, sweetheart! Are you okay? Did you get there okay? Also, I have arranged the hotel for you and make sure you rest. I won't make it there, until the day after tomorrow so wait for me hmmm?"

She immediately glimpses at her husband as he was staring out afar. "Mr. Kim. Chaerin and I got here fine. Thank you for checking up on us. But as for the hotel. A friend of mine offers her house for us to stay in with her. I hope you don't mind if we do." she stoically said. There was silence, on the other end and Dara thought that the connection was bad until.

"Who's this friend? How well do you know this person? Are you cheating on me?" Jaejoong suddenly blurted out.

Dara furrowed her brows in confusion and said. "Excuse me!? Mr. Kim listen. I may be one of the models who is being handled by your agency and I am aware of all the responsibilities of a model but not my private life, you don't have a say about it." Jiyong snapped his head towards his wife upon hearing what she had just said. Dara can feel the anger building up from her husband though she was pretending not to notice it as she tries not to look at him.

Once again, silence can be heard from the other end. Jaejoong tries to keep himself calm down but when it comes to Dara he is a complete mess. "I-i'm sorry that came out wrong. I should 't have said that. Well...if that friend of yours is nice enough to accommodate you then...I guess it's fine. Just make sure that you make it to your scheduled shoot in time." he finally said. He wants to ask her about them spending time together but I guess that is not going to happen now. He really wants to spend some time with Dara like how they used to. He was even planning to confess to her his deepest feeling when they meet. He's been in love with her ever since he had laid his eyes on her. But he also knows that she is not easy. He knew several men who have tried to date her but failed. He was so happy when she agreed to move back to their home country thinking that they will have a happy ending. He thought that she was also falling in love with him because they would constantly go out whenever he would visit her in Australia. Yes. They would go out but it's always been with a group of people never alone together. Because he thought that even if there were other people this is the only way that he can be with her. He also thought that they have some kind of understanding between the two of them already at least. "I guess I will see you in a couple of days then." he sadly said. "I'm still not giving up on you Dara. You will soon be mine." he thought to himself.

Dara deeply sighed as she ended the call and look up to find her husband staring at her. They stared at each other for a while reading each other's body language. Jiyong was the one who gave up first and approach his wife. He wrapped her in his arms and softly asked then kissed her forehead. "Is everything alright?"

Dara closed her eyes and nod as she returned his embraced feeling safe in the arms of her husband. She knows that they both have a lot to discuss and sooner or later they will have to. Her adopted father has been updating her of the situation in regards to her royal parents especially her royal father's condition. For now, he is stable but his condition is not improving. She will need to go and visit them soon but they also heard that they are being heavily guarded by her uncle's royal guards. They are sorting out a plan to sneak in and visit her royal parents soon.

Jiyong felt his wife relax in his arms and this made him grinned to himself. He will do anything to protect this woman who is growing on him every second of the day. He has never felt this way towards any other woman that he had met. His wife is a very special woman and he will always keep her that way.
