Who are You?

Chapter 25: Surprise

Lisa's POV

I've been focusing on the contract infront of me but I guess I find it hard to if my mind is occupied by the specific brunette that was looking at me intently that I can see in my peripheral view.

We were now at my office together with Mr. Utz,
The other 3 models and my father.

“So uhm, I guess we’ll have to do the photoshoot in Korea if that’s okay with you Miss Manoban and Miss Kang.” Mr. Utz broke the silence.

“I’m okay with it.” I rolled my eyes at Seulgi of course she would agree, it would benefit her and Joy.

“How about you Miss Manoban?”  I turn to Mr. Utz.

“You won’t give me any choice anyway.” I smirk as he laughed at me.

“Just check the proposals of the coming event and fashion shows in there ladies, if you have any questions about it.” He speaks while closing his laptop.

“How about the Celine, Manoban and Chanel clothing collaboration, have we found a new designer for it?” I asked.

“Actually, I already talked to Mr.Wetheimer and we are actually looking for it but don’t worry dear we’re already rooting for someone.” He smiled at me and I nodded.

“I hope I can get to meet whoever is that to present her designs to me.”

“Of course you will, but for now we’ll make sure that you’ll surely love her designs.”

Mr. Utz shook our hands before he went out of my office; he even managed to tease me to Jennie as he grins at me while looking at the both of us. Seulgi sighed heavily that caught the attention of the three of us.

“You should’ve told me if you weren’t going to attend yesterday’s interview.” She look at me I just raise my brow and stood up to glance at the glass wall where I can see the Eiffel.

“I wasn’t needed in there anyway.”

“Are you fucking serious Lisa? That’s one of the reason why we came here.”

“Can you shut it Seulgi? It was way already done, they have already aired it.” I answer looking back at them, Irene and Jennie was just listening while looking at me.

“You didn’t even give anyone a notice that you’ll be gone the whole day, where the hell have you been?”

I chuckled sarcastically “You aren’t my mom, so don’t act like one.”

“And you aren’t a child anymore so stop acting like one!” she rose from her seat and slam her hand on the table. “You told us the first day to set aside our personal agendas because we are here to work but here you are acting so immature and unprofessional because of what? Because of Jennie?” my mouth slightly parted because of Seulgi’s boldness like we were only the person talking to each other, as if Jennie and Irene weren’t in the room.

I shut my eyes and shook my head for several times “I will just apologize to the team.” I mumbled feeling the guilt as I realized that Seulgi was right. I’m being unprofessional when I choose not to attend the interview yesterday because I don’t want to see Jennie and get asked about the issue, but I guess it was also a good move that I didn’t attended the said interview because the host ask a lot of questions regarding their relationship.

“We were worried about you Lisa.” Irene spoke looking worriedly at me.

“I’m really sorry, but I assure you guys that I’m okay.” I timidly smile at them not glancing at the brunette whose eyes were fix on me.
