When A Stranger Kisses You

Chapter 2

The next morning, Jessica woke up early to get ready for her schedule on that day. She climbed off the bed to open the curtain letting the sunlight to shine in her own bedroom. Yes, her own bedroom. She and her forced-wedded husband, Lee Dong Wook, used separated rooms ever since they got married four months ago. Lee Dong Wook agreed to be in separated rooms, as long as Jessica remained to be his wife.

Jessica walked out of her bedroom and walked down the stairs to make her way to the kitchen. The maids and the chef quickly bowed and greeted her after seeing her walking in.

"Good morning, mam"

"Morning everyone" she smiled

"As usual mam, your coffee" one of the maid gave Jessica a hot cup of coffee

"Thank you. And I told you not to call me mam. Just call me Jessica" she patted on the maid's shoulder

The chef and the maids face quickly shook their heads. They pointed at the balcony. Jessica turned her head to look at the place they pointed, and she saw a man sitting there while reading newspaper.

Jessica sighed and nodded towards them. That man, of course it was Dongwook. He commanded everyone in the house to respect Jessica by calling her 'mam'.

"Jessica"

She hated hearing that voice. And for some reason, she hates it when she was called by her full name. She brought along her cup of coffee and walked to the balcony. She sat on the empty chair opposite him. On the table was served some bread toasts, a jar of jam and peanut butter on the side.

"Good morning" said Dongwook

She did not respond.

"I said good morning" he moved his face away from the newspaper to look at her

Jessica responded with an icy glare towards him.

He just chuckled. He folded the newspaper and put it aside.

"Eat your breakfast my dear"

He would always try to coerce her by using his lovely tone. But to Jessica, it wasn't lovely at all. Even by calling her with sweet words, it didn't give a single effect to her.

"I'm not hungry"

"So you're just thirsty?" he watched her sipped on her coffee

She sighed and just watched the scenery of the lake beside their house. The lake view was lovely. If only she could share the beauty of the lake with someone whom she will love so much. But she had been waiting for the perfect person for a long time.

The wind made strands of hair to block Jessica's face. Dongwook made himself closer to her to move away the blocking strands of hair. Jessica saw his movement and instantly moved her face to the other side so he won't even get the chance to touch her face.

Dongwook laughed a little and returned back to his normal sitting position.

"So icy even in the morning" he said.

"There's something I need to tell you Jessica"

"What?" she replied

"You won't have any schedules for today. Even tomorrow, the next day, and the rest of your life"

"What are you talking about?" she looked at him

"You are now officially, jobless" he smirked

"What?!"

"No more modeling for you. Comprende?"

"Why are you doing this to me?"
