Pinned against the wall, Ruby Jane watched her husband's stunning face and yearning gaze on her. He took a long route in his busy schedule and dropped by, just to have a look at her.
His wife never fails to surprise him every time and how smartly she gets adapted to the time and situation without a hint of panic or confusion.
His lips were about to claim hers but brushed over and landed at the corner of her lips. Ruby Jane sharply inhaled, onerously tilting her head away. Her brows quivered, controlling herself from giving in to the temptation, she never had thought it would be so difficult. Every inch of her skin was pricking for his touch.
She could feel they won't be able to stop if they started. And they were in Nikun's office and the door wasn't locked, "You- have... work, Lisa." She said breathily, feeling his heavy breath fanning her cheek.
She wanted to create physical distance but her hands were pinned to the wall under his firm grip. So she could only wait for him to let go of her.
Lisa breathed deep to calm himself. He couldn't believe he was losing his control against his carnal desires. He could only curse Seungri who succeeded in his plan.
He left her hand as he shifted to cup her head and planted his lips on her forehead, eventually calming both of them. He heard her mumble leaning on him, "I want to beat the crap out of him." 'Him' is Seungri.
He chuckled, he was happy she was right there, next to him even if he can't make love to her. Pulling her away, he took her to sit on the couch as he asked, "Tell me something, did you come here to piss off Seungri?"
Ruby Jane knew if she said yes he was going to sulk all day. So instead of directly saying she was there for him, she shrugged her shoulders as she sat down, "I had no plans to reveal my presence here. So what do you think?" she smirked, popping her eyebrow at him.
Lisa again had to control himself from grabbing her closer and kissing all the sense out of her. This was torture.
He thought to change the topic and pinched her cheeks, "My Queen solved half of my problems." So should he take out his time for her?
Ruby Jane tried to read between his lines before asking, "But, I didn't speak for you." She didn't once take the Manoban name when she was being recorded live.
Lisa nodded at her words and let her know what he meant, "Your video went viral so the pressure on the administration lowered. They extended the time for the investigation. Since it hasn't been a week since we obtained the clearance certificate for safety, they have no reason to stop the production." The M Industries could manage the loss of a day and a night easily.
Lisa had expected to argue with the local and central department executives for hours. Everything was solved once her video went viral, the unblocks were removed from the roads. Now the city was going back to its routine.
Lisa couldn't believe she took the whole city under control in no time. And the M Industries stock price was slowly steadying from the sharp drop, everything would be fine once the investigation reports came out and he would have to give a valid compensation to the families.
Ruby Jane had offered him direct help to solve the problem quickly together but he had turned it down. She was glad she could be of some help and saved an hour or two of Lisa to focus on the main problem.
Ruby Jane sheepishly grinned and extended her hand at Lisa, "So where is my commission for saving your millions of money?"
Lisa clapped her hand as he smirked. "Sweetheart, you didn't take the Manoban name, remember?" So no money.
