Leanne drew a lungful of air before she decided to walk inside the elegant foyer after wrestling with her ridiculous thoughts and for the last time, she scolded herself that she's not dressed like this to impress anyone, least of all him. Besides, it's his girlfriend's birthday. Besides, she's not crazy enough to seduce him during a special day for his girlfriend. That's just plain stupidity and insane.

It's natural for me to pamper myself since I'll be attending a party, right? No other reason. Just none.

She ran her sweaty palms down the length of her black dress and ignored how revealing it was with its deep V-neck and halter neck straps, baring the skin of her back. She didn't realize this dress could be this body-hugging.

She sighed and mentally cursed Sey for giving her this dress to wear tonight. She shouldn't have trusted her. She knew there was a hidden agenda behind those glint in her eyes, yet she still let her pick this dress for her.

"Aianne!"

Leanne's wandering eyes halted at the woman in a glittering gold, strapless gown sauntering in the crowd full of men in suits and women in elegant gowns. Yet her beauty wasn't lost in them. She truly is a beautiful woman.

She walked aiming towards her with her welcoming smile as she met her halfway.

"Hi! Thank you for coming!" She said while smiling and hugged her afterwards.

"Thanks also for the invitation." She said awkwardly. She's still not used to people hugging her and kissing her cheek for a greeting.

That day when Irene invited her, she also took her out for a stroll. She wanted to decline but there was just something in her pleading eyes that she couldn't resist. She was even surprised when she was with two big body guards. She's that rich, I guess.

After they went for a stroll, she just found herself laughing. Irene was really out-going and fun to be with not like any other wealthy man's daughter. She thinks she would want her to be my friend, if only . . .

Well, she's still Wonwoo's girlfriend. And she had decided long ago that she doesn't want to be attached to anything that's part of his life.

"Anyway, I'd like you to meet some of my brothers." She said when she broke the hug and that's when she came to realize that there's a man behind her. "Mingyu and Junhui."

The tall man with a black hair which was called Mingyu smiled. "Hello there, pretty lady." He said and reached for her hand. He was already lifting it up to press a kiss on my knuckles before she could pull her hand away.

She let go of a wide smile. He's handsome, definitely handsome, and he has this sexy smile that no doubt will melt any girls at the knees. But does he always greet women like this in first encounter? The other with a sexy purple hair, Junhui just smiled at her.

"It's Leanne Aianne Altiere." She said and pulled her hand. "You can call me A or Aianne."

"Altiere." Junhui repeated her surname, trying to remember something. His eyes narrowed and twinkled, and she suddenly realized how familiar they were. Did she saw them before?

He looked at her intently. Wait, does he know her?

"Are you the professional driver Wonwoo hired for the SPEED CHASE Series poster?" Mingyu asked.

Oh. So they haven't met before. They just happened to see the poster of her with SPEED CHASE's car. But why do their eyes look so familiar? And their nose too. In fact, their faces too. But she doesn't know exactly where she met them.

Leanne threw the thought away and gave out a professional smile. "Yes. That would be me."

"It's a pleasure to meet you in flesh. I must admit, you look much lovelier in person." Junhui said.
