LOVE ME AGAIN || KTH ✔️

Chapter 18

I stared at her for a while expecting an answer from her to my question. "A lover? Of course, no. He doesn't have anyone in his life except you, sweetheart", she replied and gave me a soft smile which didn't last for too long and eventually faded away.

Lies. I looked at her, sternly. "So Taehyung never had any woman in his life before me?", I asked despite knowing her answer to my question.

"Of course, he never had", she replied within a few seconds. Lies again. How can she deceive with such finesse, maintaining an unwavering poker face? She effortlessly spinned a web of deceit, her face was a picture of unwavering composure.

"Then has he-"

"Emma, honey, shouldn't you go and try on your wedding outfit at the boutique?", she cuts me off and asks. I was slightly taken aback looking at how she swiftly changed the topic.

"Oh, I thought we were going together later", I said and she replied with a smile, "I want you to have your own special experience so why don't you go with Taehyung instead?", she asked and I went silent.

With Taehyung? I know..he won't go with me. I was involved in my thoughts until she called out a name which made me snap out of my thoughts.

"Taehyung'', she called out and I followed her eyes which were on Taehyung who just happened to walk past the dining room. Taehyung stopped in his tracks and looked up from his phone, stealing a glance in our direction.

"Accompany Emma to the boutique. She needs to try out her wedding gown", Mrs. Kim said and Taehyung shifted his gaze towards me. Honestly, speaking I didn't have high hopes this time. I was ready to hear a no from him and that's exactly what happened next.

"I am busy. She can go by herself or maybe you can accompany her", he replied in a cold tone as he again averted his gaze back at Mrs. Kim.

And saying that he was about to walk away but got interrupted by Mrs. Kim again. "Taehyung, stop", he stopped again. "What do you want?", he asked in a subtly irritated tone.

"You already know what I want", Mrs. Kim replied. "Let's go", he said, looking back in my direction. For a moment I was surprised. Did he agree that easily? Will he really go to the boutique with me? I couldn't help but feel a bit happy about it.

I quickly stood up from my seat and looked back at Mrs. Kim who passed me a warm smile, "Enjoy your day out with him", she said and I gave her a small nod and started making my way towards Taehyung who didn't wait for me and was already striding towards the door.

I silently followed him behind. The happiness that I felt a moment ago suddenly disappeared into thin air. He doesn't care about me nor is he interested in going out with me. I am nothing but just a burden to him.

Suddenly, I stopped in my tracks which made Taehyung stop as well and look behind. "What happened?", he asked. "Ah..looks like I left my phone inside", I replied with a nervous smile. "I'll go and get it", he nodded his head in agreement.

I quickly turned around and hastily made my way towards the dining room. I was about to reach the room but got stopped midway by a familiar voice. "Are you keeping an eye on y/n?", the voice said and I froze down in my spot.

Y/n?

"If you are doing your job so well then why the fvck was Emma asking me about Taehyung's past? Are you saying she asked me about it because she can read minds?", the voice was filled with rage. I stayed behind the wall for a while. Listening to whatever she was saying.

"I won't spare you if anything goes wrong. No one should know Ara is Taehyung's daughter especially Taehyung and Emma", listening to her my eyes widened in shock. "Taehyung's daughter...?", I covered my mouth using my hand. I was completely taken aback by what I just heard.
