Antares’s phone vibrated. Luna was calling.
“Ne, Luna.”
“Have you seen the articles? It’s all over the internet.” She said.
Even though she sounded calm, Antares knew she was panicked because there’s Grace’s face in some of the articles, they even didn’t really blur it.
“Yes, I have. Don’t worry, Luna. I already asked my legal team to sue the media and reporter who had Grace’s face on their articles and make sure they take it down as soon as possible.”
Luna let out a breath in relief, “Ne. Thank you for that. I also do the same.”
“Yes, alright. We shouldn’t be worried. I’ll make sure this won't cause any harm for Grace, and also for you.”
Luna was silent for a while before asking, “How about you? Is it okay with MG?”
She knew that news might have affected him, and his image in incredibility at least in front of the board of leaders of MG Global.
Antares was in progress to consolidate his company to do a merger with Hanryu rather than try to acquisited it. In his opinion and perspective as one of the executives, that option was better and would be beneficial for both companies. And for his personal reason, that was his way to slowly help Luna to take over Hanryu.
“Don’t worry about me. I have strong points and a reasonable perspective about that business plan and movement. They should understand that. Or if they really that dumb to not see the long-term benefit from the merger, then this company is no longer a good vehicle for me. No longer a good playground for me to play in.”
Tae-Ahn-a,” she was about to argue, because she knew however, MG Global was his pride, the company that he built from zero to fight back to everyone who caused the downfall of his name and Jeguk before.
But he stopped her by saying, “Luna, I know what I’m doing. Don’t worry about me. And, I just want you to do your part as best as you can to manage Hanryu, until we succeed with the merger. And slowly I’ll make my move to Hanryu. Can you?”
She finally just sighed, “Arraseo. I will do my best, and welcome you when the time comes.”
He smiled, even though she couldn’t see that, “Good. That’s my woman.”
She clicked her tongue and rolled her eyes a little, though she couldn't help herself from smiling as well, “Tae-Ahn-a, don’t forget to come for dinner. Grace asking when will you come? A week is already too long for her. She said she really really really misses you so much.”
Antares smiled even wider with a little chuckle. It had already been a week since his last meeting with Grace, and also Luna, because he was really busy and went to few important meetings abroad.
“Tell her I will be home at seven. And…”
“And?” Luna was getting impatient because he paused his sentence and went silent to tease her.
“What about you? Are you missing me as well?”
Luna rolled her eyes, “Keumanhae. I’m busy now. I’ll hang up.”
She almost ended their phone call but before that she called for him one last time and said quickly, “Lee Tae-Ahn, I miss you too.”
On his chair, Antares was speechless, but his heart felt really warm. That’s his Luna.
***
“Grace, My Baby!” Antares called for Grace as he stood in the middle of the door of Grace’s playing room in Luna's house. She was playing with her nanny that Luna hired to accompany her when she was working.
