Flash Marriage:The Domineering Wife

25

"Sir, The Li family in city S sent us an invitation to their charity gala in honor of Msr. Li's birthday." Kai's secret, Martin said in a frightened voice.

His boss was always cold and he always has this murderous aura that made Martin nervous every time he was in front of him. He has never seen his boss laugh since he became his secretary three years ago.

He had heard rumors that his wife left him five years ago, which turned him into this bitter and angry person. Martin is always sweating every time he is in his presence. He knew that if he commited one mistake, his boss could go ballistic.

"Sir..." He spoke again to get Kai's attention since he hadn't responded.

"Yeah, I heard you." Kai said rubbing his temples. He seemed to be annoyed, snappiness present in his voice. "When is the gala?" he asked and his secretary answered him.

"In three days, sir." Kai frowned.

He has hardly attended any of these public gatherings these past few years.
He hated these social gatherings where everybody was trying to show off how much money they had. But since his company was working with Li Corps, he had no choice but to attend.

" Sir, are we going? I heard a lot of businessman would be there. This party could help us a lot." Martin asked and said nervously, expectant for his boss answer.

"Hmm, Book our plain tickets and a hotel." Kai answered as he closed his eyes tiredly.

" Alright, sir." Martin said as he hurriedly fled the office as if ge didn't want to stay in the room any longer.

The moment he left, Jennie's smiling face flashed before Kai's eyes.

" Kai, do i look pretty?" Jennie asked as she stared at him with her pure eyes.

"hmm, my jinjin is the most beautiful woman in the entire world." he commented as he tickled her on the bed. Her soft laughter sounded in the bedroom as she begged him to stop.

Kai jerked his eyes open as he ran a frustrated hand through his hair. For the past few days since his nightmare, he had tried to convince himself that she is the one who had cheated on him. He didn't have to feel guilty for what he did.

She betrayed him so he shouldn't waste his time thinking about her but he couldn't. Her laughter, smile, and pure eyes had been haunting him — as if he was prey! He always think about her. Kai was in a constant battle with himself between his mind and heart.

His mind was telling him to let go since he has a fiancee now. But alas—his heart wouldn't let go. Deep down he knew that what he did was wrong. Her parents died because of his crazy ex. She has no one, but he had ruthlessly thrown her out. Anger blinded him that time and he hated himself for letting his anger cloud his judgement that night.

Jeongyeon stared at his friend as he took a sip of his  coffee. Lisa has invited him out for coffee since he apparently needed his advice.

"You really love this woman?"  Lisa turned to look at him and nodded to answer his question.

"Yes, but she had a rough past so she is afraid to fall in love, i guess." Lisa sighed as he gave his disheartened answer.

" Woman are complicated. You have to make her feel you love her with your actions, not just by telling her through words." Lisa frowned, slightly not understanding what his friend wanted to convey.

"What do you mean?"

" Don't just hold her and tell her you love her. For someone who has been emotionally bruised, she need to feel that someone loves her sincerely —genuinly.
