The Traps of the Black Swan (Book 2)

208

Unaware about what was happening, Chaeyoung drove towards the Highland Club thinking it wouldn't be difficult for her to play hard to get, yet follow Wade Merton's plan.

The previous day, she didn't know who he was and his purpose. After being aware of his schemes, she was kind of sure she won't be comfortable around him.

Thinking of how to avoid wade from holding or touching her, Chaeyoung came to the conclusion, they should sit somewhere.

Flirting wasn't a big deal but thinking about it to fool him didn't appear as easy as the real one.

She let out a frustrated grunt to keep thinking about it. Halting in the traffic signal, she got a sight of three tall towers that were far away. It was Skyarc apartments.

Looking at the tallest one, "Will Jisoo be there at the club?" She asked herself.

Then her thoughts slowly drifted about Jisoo. She was sure about one thing, she was very much attracted to Jisoo.

She had seen numerous handsome, stunning men but none had stayed in her mind for so long. In fact, she always forgot them on the same day she used to meet.

However, she had thought ignorance of Jisoo might make her less attracted to him. Unfortunately, it wasn't working that way. Instead, it started bothering her over thinking about Jisoo's ignorance.

She never really went through the phases where the known ones ignore her. Sometimes she was frustrated and sometimes, she wanted to wait for his attention.

'Am I really falling for that rude man? It can only be an attraction right?' She dug her knowledge about love but she wasn't able to settle well with any thoughts.

She pressed a button on the car steering wheel and commanded, "Call Sister-in-law."

The call soon connected and it was mute for a few seconds before the voice emerged, "Chaeyoung! I was expecting you at Coasta before you settled in Mocon. How are you, Sweetie?" The soft voice brought a tiny smile to Chaeyoung's face.

"Sister-in-law, I am not coming to Coasta, ever. You know Grandpa has been behind me for two years yammering about marriage." She whined totally unaware of the car that was following her very close by.

There was a loud sigh. Chaeyoung knew her sister-in-law is also having similar issues. She was eager to get married to Nikun but was afraid to live with her grandparents.

Chaeyoung changed back the topic, "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you something but you shouldn't tell this to anybody. Brother Nick will start doubting me."

There was a soft chuckle before the other end responded, "Alright, let me hear."

Chaeyoung was momentarily confused about how to ask the question. Then she straightly asked without worrying about what her sister-in-law would think, "Sister-in-law, how did you get to know you love Brother Nick? Was it an attraction?"

There was a pleasant pause for a moment before the response came in as light as possible, "It started off with attraction. He was a handsome teenager who was ignoring everyone, search me in the crowd every time.

I am not sure if we were serious about each other until the day he said he got a seat in his dream university and I had chosen college in Coasta.

That's when I understand, I wasn't ready to lose him."

Chaeyoung had heard many tits and bits of their story, it was the first time she heard the whole summary from her sister-in-law's point of view.

After a smile, Chaeyoung shook her head and came back to the topic, "So the attraction is just in the beginning."
