A second chance at love

Chapter 82: Do you hate this

----

"Why did you come back so late?"

Lisa had been waiting for Jungkook to ask her the question. From the moment she stepped foot inside, she had already guessed from his deathly glare.

"Why I came back so late?"

She arched a brow while trying to conceal her laughter. He looked like a little boy who's mother just tried to abandon him.

Seeing her answer him with a question, Jungkook puckered his bottom lip with a frown. Was she afraid to answer him truthfully?

Thinking again, he noded his head once. He wanted to know why.

"Mm."

Lisa touched her chin and acted like she was thinking of what to say.

"My employees weren't able to get the new design I assigned started by tonight, so I made them go home early. Naturally, I stayed behind and worked on it. I just didn't realize that once I finished halfway through, the sky outside was already very dark."

She shruged her shoulders, and continued to eat. If she keeps looking at the man, she would soon die from holding in her laugh.

"....."

Looking a Lisa, he could tell she was telling the truth.

He sighed in relief inside. So she wasn't out with Yeonjun but at work.

He noded his head in understanding. He felt like something heavy was lifted from his chest.

Glancing back up to look at Jungkook , a faint smile crossed her lips. He is her boyfriend, so she didn't need to hide anything from him. Of course, if he asks then she'll tell, if he doesn't then she won't.

After they finished eating, the both of them decided to watch a movie. Staying up later than usual was fine, they didn't have work the next day.

As they watched an action movie, they didn't cuddle but sat next to each other.

Half way through the movie, Lisa couldn't help but interrupt the peaceful moment between them.

Turning her head to look at him, she hesitated, but summoned all her courage.

"Jungkook."

"Mm."

Jungkook answered without taking his eyes from the tv. His attention was on the movie.

"Jungkook."

"Mm?"

This time, he turned his head and stared back at her.

Meeting his dark ink like eyes, Lisa blushed and averted her eyes down, however she blush even more when her eyes landed on his naked upper body.

'Oh god! How could I forget that he's shirtless?!!'

Taking a big gulp, she closed her eyes to steady her shaking heart. Looking back up, she takes a deep breath.

"Can we sort things out?"

Jungkook raised a brow in puzzlement. He stared at her as if telling her to continue.

Seeing this, She couldn't help but sigh at this noble king.

"I meant, can we sort out things between us?"

She said with one index finger pointing to him then to her.

Jungkook didn't say a word expect make another "mm" sound.

"I think we should think this thoroughly. It's still not too late if you want to back out on this relationship. I will understand."

"....."

Listening to Lisa's words, Jungkook wanted to knock on the woman's head and have it open, so he could see what she ever thinks about.

It's not too late? Understand? Did he sound like he was joking?

His eyes dimmed, making him look dangerous and dejected.

"I'm serious."

Jungkook's deep and low voice triggered Lisa's heart to pound faster and faster. He sounded very serious. Extremely serious.

Before she can even say another word, she yelped in surprise.

"Ahh-!"

Jungkook without warning had grabed her by the waist and huged her close to him.

Lisa placed both her hands on his chest. The touch of his skin felt like she was getting electrocuted, in a good way.

She struggled with blushing cheeks and tried to push him away, "Jungkook, let go."

He tightend his hold on her, hugging her as if he wanted to knead her with him. He whispered near her ear.

"Do you hate this?"

His tone of voice was indifferent, but there was a small hint of sadness.
