The music comes to a stop, and tension fills the air. When I turn around, I discover that Jungkook has left.
Dahyun gestures for me to move away from the man, whose name I now know to be Yuta.
"Excuse me." I mutter calmly before leaving him on the dance floor. I had been pretending to enjoy his company so that when I finally cut ties with him, he would know something was definitely wrong somewhere.
"Jisoo...Mr. Jeon just left. Did you do something that annoy him?" With my brows furrowed, I shake my head.
"No." She smiles.
"I told you he likes you, didn't I?"
"Dahyun!"
"What?! Isn't it obvious already? Almost everyone in the room is whispering in agreement. He didn't even look at Tzuyu's face, who is his dance partner for more than a second. His gaze was fixated on you all along. I saw the jealousy in his eyes when Yuta was dancing with you."
"So all along, you were watching us instead of dancing with your man?" I fold my arms around my bosom, finding it hard to believe. She chuckles softly.
"Not only me. Everyone else was watching. The chemistry between you two is..."
"Shut up!" I hit her shoulder, and she feigns a wince.
"Vero, that's truly..." She trails off as realization dawns on her face.
"He calls you Jisoo, is that your name?"
"No!" My reply comes out rather sharply.
"Maybe he made a mistake. Instead of calling me Vero, he called me that." The suspicion on her face makes my heart pound heavily. It makes me wonder if she knew his ex-wife's name.
"I am Veronica!" I pronounce it again with an awkward smile.
"And why are we still here? Your man looks like he can't wait to devour you before tomorrow." She finally laughs, her attention moving away from my face. When she turns back to peer down at me again, I know she isn't done.
"Mr. Jeon." she only says, making me raise a questioning brow.
"He is my boss and your partner. In fact, he is the best man. It Won't look good if he is not seen here."
"He is the best man? Dahyun, you didn't even tell me he was coming..."
"But I told you he was Taeyong's friend and business partner, didn't I?" She retorts immediately.
"Yes, you did, but I thought he was just going to make an appearance tomorrow at the wedding and not today at the party. To worsen the case, he is the best man, and I am the maid of honor..."
"It will make everything perfect. Yuta might be the match for you, but working things out with Mr. Jeon will be more suitable, don't you think?" She asks, throwing me a wink.
