The Devil's Sweetheart

68

On the instant, Lisa shoved her off and dusted his shirt as if she was a kind of dirt. He quickly backed off from her when she tried to reach for him again. His fingers clenched into fists and the urge to wring her neck was at the tip of his fingers. While he knew she is a mental case, he did not expect she would daringly hug him in the public. He wanted to go and jump into a river to holy his body right at the moment when the smell of her was making him nauseated. The only women he is close to were Nayeon and Leah from his childhood but it was all brotherly sign and the one woman he willingly clinged to her was Jennie and only she could make him comfortable. Being hugged by this woman, anger welled up in his chest.

"Do you have a death wish?" He lashed out with uncontrollable emotion. "Get out of my sight. You are the most sickly woman I have ever encountered."

His words hit her face harshly. Regina was terrified to the core. She never expected she would hear those words from him even after she hugged him. She thought he would melt away by her touch.

She has abandoned her modeling career for him and became a designer and worked in his company to be treated like this? But still, she mustered up her courage to confess her feelings today. It was getting hard to talk with him in the office and when she saw Jennie clinging onto Lisa on that day, she couldn't keep her emotions in check. She has never seen him with a woman in the past and when he allowed Jennie to hold his hand, something triggered in her.

Ignoring the lousy woman, Lisa was about to step into the car, but her words stopped him in his tracks.

"I-I have been admiring you for ten years. I am in love with you, sir."

Lisa turned to face her and gazed at the woman as if he was not affected by her words. How pathetic this woman could get? Even after he was chastising, she was in her world. A delusional woman. While he got many proposals from women, he never got aggravated like how he got today.

"Look-"

Even before Lisa could complete his words, he was interrupted by a familiar voice.

"You dare to hug my brother, raggabrash?" Nayeon scurried to the place carrying a paper bag. When she spotted Lisa's car after she came back from a shop, she was stunned to see that Lisa was hugging a woman. Instantly she rushed to the place but as she got closer, the woman's face became apparent. She went cold with fury as she spoke. "I would have slapped your face now but that will be considered as animal abuse."

"You dare to call me an animal." A vortex of anger swirled inside with the intrusion." I am talking to sir. Please stay put or you can walk out of the place."

"When I see your face, even I change the direction of my walk, let alone my brother." Nayeon laughed throwing her head in amusement. How she wished, Jennie was here. She would have grated Regina until she dies out of embarrassment. "If you are still thinking of a way to get my brother, then you are the most delusional absurd woman living in a fool's paradise. Didn't our Jennie pot-roast you on that day? You might have known about her already. She is no good. Better back off before she shows her other side."

Lisa wondered when Jennie met Regina when he heard Nayeon.

How did Nayeon know about our encounter? Regina wondered. But it's not the time to dwell on it. She ignored Nayeon and turned to face Lisa.

"I suggest you do a thorough background check on Jennie before you consider a relationship with her." Regina tried to put dirt on Jennie despite she knew Lisa wouldn't believe her. Although it doesn't happen, putting a thought in his mind would create suspicion in the future. "She is a gold digger and she has affairs with many men in the pas-"

"Quiet!"

Regina shuddered with the sudden brashness of his voice. When she gazed up, she was met with hid icy stares that were venomous.
