3 Years and Forever [EN- Jay X OC] [EDITING]

Chapter 5: Ignore Them

"Yes" she replied from the living room. "What happened to the kitchen??" "Just a slight accident" "Bro this is..."

She went to join him to watch the kitchen in disarray. She smiled sheepishly and began to clean the unwashed dishes. "I'm sorry I was too busy today I couldn't clean the mess"

"What happened?" he rolled his sleeves to join her.

"I tried to make myself lunch by watching youtube" she confessed. "But gosh cooking is hard!"

Jongseong went to the pot and tasted the remaining broth. His brows furrowed again. "It's a bit bland. But okay for a starter"

"Yass!" "Come let's make some dinner" "Aye aye sir"

He smirked and replied, and began to get used to her antics.

"I want to learn cooking from you" she said, which made him glance at her. He was taking out the ingredients from the refrigerator. "You sure? Most people find me intimidating to learn from, you know"

"Pfft! Whatever people find intimidating, I know I will just find it annoying" she stuck out her tongue.

They were at the lounge near the greenhouse after dinner. Both were immersed in their own phones.

"How's work?" she asked. "Good. Hectic as always" he replied.

"You?" he asked. "Working from home the whole day?"

"I went to the office for a while in the morning. Then spend the whole day at home. But I'll go to the office on Thursday" "You can take the car. I'll take the bike" he stopped scrolling as an article caught his attention.

It was an article about their marriage. He unintentionally read the comment under it.

[notY0ur***] Who is this bitch?! I never heard of her name before

Jongseong frowned but continued reading.

[user987219471] Why is he marrying a 'nobody'???

[minL***] She is not even at his level!!

[hae*****] Just a nobody trying to climb the social ladder

[suuunn****] She is just using him

Jongseong put down his phone. He stared at Haneul who was still immersed in the cat videos on her phone. 'She never sees these kinds of things right?'

Now that he thought of her, he quickly went to his instagram and opened an account. The account belonged to one of the insta famous with a huge number of followers. All of the posts looked aesthetically pleasing to look at. But for some unknown reason, there was not a single photo of who this account belongs to. He looked at the comments section of one of the posts.

[thatThatILikeThat573948] This person is living the princess life!

[stillWaitingforGFriend] Manifesting this kind of life!

[jisung***] ExcUsE mE nOonA dO yOu haVE a bOyfRieNd?

[still****] This motivates me to work hard so my future wife can have this kind of life

"Haneul" Jongseong called. "Yup" she paused the funny cat dub video and turned to him. Her smiles were still there after she laughed watching the video. He showed the account to her. "This is you right?"

Her smiles immediately faded. Haneul looked at him in disbelief. "How do you find it?"

"I don't know. Randomly found it. But this is you right? The latest picture is taken in the green house" "Well..." she looked away. Slowly she nodded her head.

He smiled, satisfied now that his curiosity was answered. "Wow an insta famous in front of me right now!"

"Tsk it's nothing huge though" "But why isn't there any picture of you? Why are you trying to hide your identity?" he was still scrolling through the posts.

"It's fun that way. I can post what I want without being a company heiress or anyone. Just you know, freely do what I want" "Kind of your outlet here right?" "Uhuh"

"What's this place?" He showed one of her posts to her. It was a series of pictures of hands petting cats.

"Cat shelter" "Ah this is where you go when you say you're busy on weekend?" "Yup. Volunteer there once or twice a month" "It must be heaven being there!" "Bro don't get me started! It's a real heaven of cats! I mean.. If you love cats" "I'm okay with them. Not a huge fan of cats but it seems fun.. Doing volunteer work" "Wanna join? Elly and Keonhee join too, with their family" "Can I?" "Sure! I'll let you know when it's the time" she turned to her phone again when she received a text message.

Her sudden gasp made him jump too.

"What's wrong?" he asked, concerned.

"Hyunjae oppa" she was still looking at her phone. "He said he wanted to stay for the night since he needed to go to the airport tomorrow morning"

"What?!" "And he's on his way!"
