An hour since the encounter with the legal wife, Jisoo was still in the President's office, crying. Crying due to excessive laughing, crunching her stomach.
"Do you want to extend your leave or should I just fire you right away so you can take all your free time laughing?" The President commented casually, eyes didn't leave her monitor.
"Now I'm thankful I did not attend your wedding." She managed to speak through stifled giggles. Then burst out laughing again.
Few moments later,
Jisoo finally fixed herself and smiled at the President sweetly.
"Seriously Jendeuk, you're perfect for each other. Damn, don't ever make her real jealous, I bet she'll burn this building down." Jisoo added followed by another crazy laughing streak.
"Prepare your resignation letter now so you won't have a displeasing record when you apply for another job."
"Ok. Fine, I'll head out to keep my job and get in the good side of my cousin-in-law. Can't wait for your savage babies!!" Jisoo shrieked in anticipation.
"This is only a business deal. The marriage is just for legalities." President Kim looked at her, expression not found.
"Ohhhhh! Beware of your words Jendeuk. You know, some of the greatest love stories started with arrange marriage thing." Jisoo fangirls then leave.
The President just shook her head and was not really interested in that love stories. She just wanted this thing done so her life will get back to normal and live in perpetual peace.
Meanwhile, the Vice President was extra dedicated and cheerful in her office because she finally won. But still, time to time, she would remember the audacity of her wife to bring her mistress here, in her building. But of course, spring back swiftly because she'll remember her little savage attack that made her opponent speechless. Brilliant move Lisa, you're so bright, she thought.
A knock was heard from her door and it revealed that opponent with a huge grin plastered on its pretty face. And all of the dedication and cheerfulness went down to zero real quick.
"What are you still doing here?" She asked annoyed, clutch tightened on the helpless innocent file she was reading earlier.
"Because I work here Vice President Kim? I'm Director Jisoo Kim, and the President assigned me to supervise you until you're capable to meet future investors and clients." Jisoo approached the now ready to burn down this building-Vice President, and offered her hand.
She stood up abruptly towering the Director and her face came up with an unfathomable expression.
Who know's what telenovela-like betrayal she was thinking.
"Whatever you're thinking, it's..incest so, would you please just shake my hand now because my arm is getting sore." The director snapped Lisa from her Watty's award worthy thoughts, letting out a controlled chuckle.
"What did you say?" She heard it right, I don't know why people do that. Guilty here.
"I'm a daughter of her father's brother."
And as if she's calculating some mental math with carry overs, her eyes went from upper left to right, contort her face and then looked at trying not to die controlling her laugh Jisoo.
And an 'oh shit' face has been made.
---------------
The Vice President and the Director hit it off real quick, as if they knew each other in their past lives. Lisoo FTW. As a friend.
All they did was dig childhood memories, the places they have been to and its memories. Then Jisoo remembered she must report Lisa's progress to the President at the end of the day so she thought reporting these facts might help in getting the arranged thing real. But she might have to prepare a resignation letter then so she just toured Lisa in one of their sites.
After touring the VP, they lunched in some fancy restaurant Lisa never knew existed because..nevermind, they just eat.
"What if you don't have a boyfriend? Is there any chance that you two could make it, you know, real?" Jisoo asked her cousin-in-law like a showbiz insider, making animated gestures with her utensils in excitement.
"I don't even know if she's acquainted with the concept of love aside from love of work. She's like married to her office, even at home." Lisa replied doing a lot of facial expression noone can catch.
"Lisa, Jennie's nice. She was just born healthy responsible adult. She had never been a child." Jisoo assured Lisa and they joined laughing at the President.
"But when my smart-ass cousin fell in love, we almost lose the company." Jisoo added and all of a sudden, the air became thick for both of them.
