Fate Brought Us Together

Chapter 22

"Why get one when I can have yours?"

She was so stunned that she just stood there silly like thunder struck her. The two continued staring in silence, lost in each other's gazes reflecting the starry night.

Dug. Dug. Dug.

Only the sound of her heartbeat can be heard in the silent night. Everything seemed blurry to her.

What's happening to me? she asked herself inwardly.

The sight of Lisa's reddened cheeks and trembling pupils was so refreshing and adorable for the man as he gazed down at her silently. She looked so flustered.

She was indeed so flustered to the point that she became utterly frustrated by her confusing emotions. It's like every time he's near her, her heart would explode. He's dangerous. He's utterly dangerous.

Rolling her eyes, she took the bottle－not the glass but the bottle this time drank it all in one go. The young lad was so startled that he had to hold her wrist from chugging the champagne any further.

She hissed at the abrupt movement before glaring at him. "What?"

She wanted to drink now. Call her a drunkard or whatever you want but she's too frustrated to even care for your opinions. She's too desperate to get rid of this strange feeling she's currently having.

But Jeon Jungkook misunderstood her actions. He thought she was affected by the announcement of the engagement that she wanted to get wasted. He felt himself burning in anger at the thought.

"Lisa," his voice was stern as he hissed at her before taking the bottle out of her grasp. He called the waiter and gave the bottle to him before shooing him off, literally.

"Just what do you want?!" she asked with an annoyed expression. She kept on struggling under his grasp just for him to tighten it further.

"You'll get drunk," he sternly said.

"And so!?" But then she was pulled by the former and instantly shrieked in response.

Lisa stared at him wide-eyed. Their faces were so close that she had the perfect view of his bambi, starry eyes. His breath fanning her lips as he lowered his face to level hers. She involuntarily gulped at that.

Jungkook also had an amazed expression. He was looking directly into her eyes which seemed to hold the whole galaxy on them. Her cheeks were painted with a dark shade of red and her luscious lips slightly parted looked rather inviting. Her natural scent was so refreshing as it invaded his nostrils.

While the two remained in a position that could easily be misunderstood, unbeknownst to them was a man standing not too far away from where they were.

Oh Sehun watched as the two engrossed themselves in each other's arms. From this perspective, one would think they are about to kiss－and that's what Sehun is thinking about right now.

Feeling uncomfortable at the sight, he forwarded his steps before calling the woman. "Lisa," he said while glaring at the man holding the latter.

When Lisa heard this, she flinched and instantly backed away. Jungkook frowned for the umpteenth time tonight. He looked at the man who dared to interrupt them and glared at him fiercely.

However, the man was already looking at Lisa and he didn't notice the fierce glare pointed at him.

Seeing the man, Lisa's expression changed in an instant.

"I didn't know you're close to Mr. Jeon," he said and was now looking at them alternately. He didn't know but the sight of Lisa and Jungkook standing side by side gave him the feeling of uneasiness. Jungkook's imposing presence partnered with Lisa's cold demeanor; it gave others the feeling of inferiority.
