Nayna pov

I panicked and asked, "Mr. Jeon, what are you doing? "

He stepped closer to me and his musky scent filled the entire room. He looked deeply into my eyes as if there's no tomorrow and I couldn't help but gulp. His grip on my wrist was secure and he didn't bother to remove it either. I could feel my skin burning under his touch.

His touch didn't feel new to me because I know how it feels when Jeon Jungkook touches me Or kisses me, but indeed I almost had an heart attack when I saw my boss dragging me to the store room.

We were silent and didn't let our eyes speak, because if we did, then we would witness the most vulnerable human beings we are for each other.

But he put a stop to the weird silence as he breathed out my name, "Nayna..... "

His grip softened around my hand but the moment my name slipped from his tongue, I felt like a person floating in air because it's been long since he called me by my first name and this indeed is so special to me because I know I won't let this fade away from my memory.

I slightly opened my mouth to speak, but had to shut it immediately when he corrected himself, "I mean Ms. Nayna" and looked away.

That's it, it triggered me again.

For one moment I thought he was being genuine and the next moment I'm being shattered by him again. In anger, I forcefully withdrew my hand from his clutch and looked at his eyes challengingly as I asked, "May I please know what are we doing here Mr. Jeon 'cause I don't find it official".

I could feel my bitchy attitude resurfacing, he didn't say anything and took a step back as he said, " Well, I wanted to clear the misunderstanding you might have had. "

I raised my one eyebrow because I couldn't connect to what he was saying.
"I didn't get you Mr. Jeon".

I emphasised on the word Mr. Jeon quite more to make him realize how it hurt me when he suddenly corrected himself from calling me Nayna to Ms. Nayna because I felt so foreign when he addressed me like that.

He sighed and closed his eyes for a second as if he's trying to gather few words inside his mind with which he could convey the thing to me.
"Ms. Nayna, it's definitely not like how you think. There's nothing going on between me and Cathy. "

I couldn't help but let out a chuckle in despair as I said, "I don't think it is relevant for me to understand your things or your personal life. I see what I believe and you're not obliged to prove it to me unless you have got something on your plate. I don't see it in you so I hope you will forgive me for gazing at you or Ms. Williams and I'd like to apologize the same for my acts. I promise it won't happen again Mr. Jeon. "

My words were harsh. I know that!

But is he blind to not see the way I'm trying it out with him? Why is he choosing to push me away and what's with this sudden confession that there ain't anything between them?

But I'm not gonna lie, I felt so relieved from inside hearing his confession because Ms. Williams was showcasing herself as if she owns him. Now I can confidently dodge her bitchy attitude if she shows me one when she's around Mr. Jeon.

He didn't bother to give me a reply and he let out a heavy breath. Once again, we were caught in an intense eye contact from which none of us wanted to escape because we weren't sure if we will get a moment like this. If he's going to play hard, then I'm going to play harder until he mends my heart that have been hurt by him, which I don't think he will.
