MR. Jeon, The Heart Bandit | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 146

Jisoo's head was buried on his chest. The door of disinfectant became even sharper, and she could clearly hear his heartbeats.

One thump after another, it was rhythmic and powerful.

His chest was also searing, as if about to burn her.

Jisoo flushed meekly, her own heart starting to race while her breaths became rapid.

This was her first time....hugging a man.

"Are you alright?"

The voice overhead was cold as ever.

Jisoo recovered them and promptly pushed him away, keeping her head lowered as she was afraid to look directly into his eyes.

She tugged at her own sleeves, and bite her lips to keep it together. "I-I'm fine...."

Ocean City.

Jungkook's headache was much better, and he returned to the hotel with Lisa after dinner.

There were gushing echoes from the bathroom as he took a shower.

Meanwhile, Lisa was packing up their luggage. They would be returning when Eunha's condition improves.

That was when Jungkook's phone rang.

Lisa glanced at his figure in bathroom, and thought that he would still take a while.

She waked over and picked it up, finding an unfamiliar number on the screen.

She answered it.

There was soft laughter from the other end. "Guess who, Jungkook?"

Lisa's eyes widened. For some reason, she actually did not have the courage to reply.

Still, the caller a woman was not annoyed by the silence, and instead said coquettishly, "Oh, you and your manners, Jungkook. You could go straight ahead and say you miss me! I'm back, so come fetch me at the airport tomorrow. It's been so long since I last see you, I've missed you so much.... Jungkook"

She spoke no naturally, so intimately!

Lisa's throat felt clogged and she promptly hung up while feeling very upset.

Countless questions appeared in her mind.

Who was she? Why did she speak as if she was very close to Jungkook?

Could there be something between them which she doesn't know?

Nonetheless, the bathroom door opened in the midst of her thoughts. She quickly put Jungkook's phone where she found it, and started to fold clothes while acting as if nothing happened.

Still, her ears sensitively detected the footsteps behind her getting ever closer.

She kept her calm and stood up after she was done tidying her luggage, but was taken into the man's arms.

His warmth ensnared her, hot as magma.

His voice was bright and cheerful like springtime. "I missed you".

That bath shouldn't lasted more then ten minutes, and he missed her already?

If it was before, Lisa would definitely be embarrassed.

Now, however, she had to re-evaluate things.

Could he be hiding something?

"What's on your Little mind?" Jungkook tugged at her while looking at her face.

"Nothing"

She flatly replied, shaking her head before pulling away and going to sit on the bed.

Sensing that she was behaving strangely, Jungkook sat beside her. However, she shifted aside casually when he was about to hug her again and did her best to keep her voice flat as she said, "Someone called you just now. I answered it"
