Dome believes in the saying that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. So he sets out to do just that with the attractive new tenant in the apartment building that he owns.

Tae's POV
"Stay out of my business," I shot back at whoever this busybody was.
"I can't," the other guy replied. He didn't seem concerned with my threatening stance.
"And why is that?" I countered.
"Because he's my boyfriend," the liar didn't blink an eyelash at his outright brazen shameless lie.
I noticed Dome turning his face sharply in the liar's direction, his eyes widening in shock.
"You want me to get rid of him, sweetheart?" the liar asked Dome.
I was about to take a swing at him when we all heard footsteps from behind us.
"Pavel!"
We all turned around to see who it was, and there was this most gorgeous looking young man making his way towards us.

He was holding out a wallet to the liar whose name I know now to be Pavel.
"You forgot your wallet on your desk. The janitor found it and gave it to Alicia, then Alicia handed it to me," the young man was saying.
"You didn't have to come and bring it to me, sir," Pavel said politely. "You could have just called me to pick it up."
Hmm ... Pavel had addressed him as 'sir'. He must be Pavel's boss or some high ranking official or something. Pavel had even bowed to him before taking the wallet.
"Tee," the gorgeous looking guy admonished Pavel, "how many more times do I have to remind you to just call me Tee."
"I'm sorry, sir... I mean, Tee." Pavel said, smiling sheepishly at the frown that appeared on Tee's face.
"I was on my way to my parents' house anyway, and I noticed that your address is on the same route that I would be using," Tee said.
Then Tee looked at the rest of us standing who were standing beside Pavel.
"Tee, this is Dome, the owner of this building where I'm renting a studio," Pavel said.
Tee stretched out his hand to Dome.
Dome accepted the extended hand, saying, "I'm not the owner of this building. I'm just managing it for my father."
"Dome, this is Tee, the owner of the company I am working for," Pavel said.
"I'm not the owner of the company," Tee said to Dome and Pavel. "I'm just managing it for my father."
I felt that I was being overlooked so I decided to say my piece.
"And I am Tae Darvid Kreepolrerk, son of the Kreepolrerk Properties owner, for whom I am running the business," I said, smiling broadly at Tee with my hand outstretched to him.
"Excuse me," Dome suddenly said, turning the door knob of his unit and stepping inside.
He slammed the door before I could say anything else.
Pavel glared at me, ready to pick a fight if I tried to bang on the door.
I turned around and made my way to my car. I did not want to make a scene in front of that gorgeous looking young man named Tee.
I will be back first thing in the morning. Dome has to hear my explanation whether he likes it or not. Now that our businesses had merged and I have to work closely with him, I have to tear down the barrier that he has put up against me. He has to know the truth. The hostilities have to cease.

Dome leaned weakly against the door after he had banged it shut. His hand flew to his chest to quiet his wildly beating heart.
Why, why did he have to show up here??? He just wanted some peace and quiet. Couldn't he have it for just one day?
Still leaning against the door to support his weight, Dome slowly went down into a sitting position on the thickly carpeted floor.
His thoughts flew back to that fateful day when, with happy anticipation, he had gone straight to Tae's unit, straight from the airport. He wanted to give Tae a pleasant surprise by not letting him know that he was coming back from Yorkshire on that particular evening.
The shock and hurt and disappointment he had felt upon seeing another guy resting on Tae's shoulder was something Dome would never forget for as long as he lived.
Why was Tae stubbornly trying to give an explanation for that image that greeted him that evening?
Dome could still taste the bitterness that enveloped his whole being upon recalling what he had seen.
"I will never forgive you, Tae," Dome whispered to himself. "No amount of explanation will make me forgive you."
