Jeonghan's Forced Marriage

Chapter 46

(Next morning Jeonghan Minji)

'Angel~ Ireona~ I want to bring you somewhere'

'Hmm...? What time is it?'

'11am?'

'The kids have to go to school! It's so late! How did I not hear the alarm ring?'

'I turned it off'

'Why?! Now they are late'

'No, now they are in school. I sent them today and I just got home'

'You sent them to school?'

'Yes? Don't you think I should be rewarded?'

Minji stopped panicking and gave Jeonghan a peck on his lips.

'Thank you Hannie'

'Anytime princess~ Now, can you get ready so I can bring you somewhere?'

'Okay!'

Minji went to get ready with Jeonghan watching her and pulling her close ever so often to sneak a kiss in.

'I'm ready!'

They left and Jeonghan drove to somewhere unknown.

'Baby, how have you been these past few months? I know you were worried about us... oppa told me'

'I was fine I guess? I just continued with life, alone. It has been long since I lived alone and I didn't like it one bit. I missed your smile, your presence and the kids' laughter. I was so lost at the start that I would just stare at the ceiling and I kept driving to the kids school out of habit until Gyu slapped me'

'Oh my poor prince'

Minji stretched her hand to cup his cheek and gently thumbed it.

'No apologies Minji, I know you feel bad but I was in the wrong too and we agreed on no apologies'

'I love you baby'

'I love you too. We are here'

They stepped out and were outside a house.

'Whose house is this?'

'Let's knock and you will know'

*Knock knock *

'Hi Minji, hi hyung'

'VERNON OPPA!'

Minji hugged Vernon tight. She missed him so much.

Vernon was very much like Mingyu to Minji. Mingyu travelled often and even if he was in Korea, he would most likely be out of town or busy at work so Vernon always took care of Minji. The person she was closest to was Vernon. They attended the same school with Vernon's sister and often spend their entire time together. Vernon knew Minji's secrets and likewise.

'Vernon-ah, I'll use your bathroom'

'Third door to the right'

'Minji, have you told hyung?'

'Yeah... he didn't ask much and he seems rather ok with it but I'm scared he is just hiding his true feelings'

'Give him time, maybe talk to him when you two didn't just fight'

'Yeah... Oppa?'

'Hmm?'

'How do I face Cheollie oppa? I've been ignoring his texts and calls'

'Talk to him. Cheol hyung knows he messed up and he isn't going to force you to be with him'

'I know... but I'm scared it would hurt our friendship, especially him with Hannie'

'Bring Han hyung with you when you talk to Cheol hyung'

'Okay, thanks Nonie oppa'

'Vernonie~'

'Ne hyung'

Jeonghan whispered something in Vernon's ear which changed Vernon's expression drastically.

'Promise?'

'Yes! Now go!'

Jeonghan pushed Vernon out the door and smiled back at Minji.

'He has something to do. Let me bring you out for lunch'

They left the house and drove off to somewhere Minji didn't know where again.

'We are here'

'The beach?'

'Follow me'

Jeonghan led Minji to a far section of the beach. A table with two chairs, plates, wine glass and fairy lights decorated the place.

'Do you like it?'

'Hannie... this is beautiful... it's so pretty'

'You like it?'

'Of course! Thank you'

Minji pressed a kiss onto Jeonghan's lips.

They had steak for lunch, prepared by two chefs Jeonghan hired just for the two of them. There was another surprise though... Seungcheol, Joshua, DK, Minghao and Seungkwan were there as their waiters.

'I'm guessing the chefs are Oppa and Jun oppa?'

'How did you know?'

'I know you well'

'May I request something today?'

Minji nodded, hinting for Jeonghan to continue asking.

'Talk to Seungcheol after this. Trust me'

Minji sighed and nodded.

After lunch, Jeonghan got both his wife and Seungcheol to sit at the table facing each other. The other members left the area while Jeonghan and Mingyu stayed within 5 meters to give Minji emotional support.

'Hey princess'

'Cheol oppa'

'I'm really sorry about what happened that day. I admit I do like you but I know you belong to Jeonghan so I will never try to steal you not make you like me back. Please let me stay as your oppa to protect you'

'I'm sorry I didn't notice your feelings earlier. Thank you for understanding my love for Jeonghan. I'm not mad at you, don't worry'

Seungcheol shyly stretched out his arms which Minji gladly ran into and hugged him back.

'Ok! That's enough!'

Jeonghan marched over and pulled Minji away, wrapping his own arms around her from behind, swaying their bodies.

'Hyung, give me a lift. Wonwoo hyung is ending work soon'

They all left after cleaning up. The awkwardness between them have been resolved.
