Our Contract Marriage

Maze

Soo-Yun glared at Jun-Sang as the meeting started. Why was she glaring at him? Because, he tell her it was an important meeting and nothing is important in that meeting. He just wanted to eye on her so she can't go anywhere.

But no matter what she did, the boy wouldn't let her go anywhere even if she try. He's so stubborn! She's not going anywhere until the meeting finish because they have a lot of work to do. She really want to know why Jun-Sang has such interest on her when she isn't interested on him.

"You're not listening again, are you?" The man in front of her snap his fingers in front of her face. She looked up to see the man's smiling face.

She sigh and give her answer.

"I'm sorry."

Mr. Kang man chuckles lightly before continue talking.

"So we need to discuss about the new expansion for our company and some ideas we already had. As I said we don't have much time left because we still needs to make everything ready before the next year." Mr. Kang smiled at her again. Jun-Sang felt rage ran in his body seeing Mr. Kang close to Soo-Yun. How dare he smiled like that when he knew that Soo-Yun his wife! This is not right. He wants to punch the man who dared to smile towards the woman he loves. But the man didn't notice anything because he continued talking with the members of the company and their thoughts about things.

Soo-Yun glanced at Jun-Sang who was burning in anger.

She could swear he looks more scary now than he usually does. She can't take this anymore so she decided to leave.

She stand up while the men look at her with question eyes. "I have to leave."

"Why? You haven't done yet?" Mr. Kang asked.

Soo-Yun nodded. "Yeah, but I have an important meeting with my client." She quickly walked away and leaving Jun-Sang alone on the table.

Soo-Yun doesn't bother looking back. She don't care if he followed her or not. It's none of his business so why should she cares.

As soon as she got out from the building, she started running to her car. She didn't care if the sun will hit her right in her eyes or something else would happen. Soo-Yun bumped into someone, she looked up.

"Sorry!" she said and quickly apologized again to Mr. Kang's son.

The boy was surprised by her apology and he didn't say anything. They kept quiet, not knowing what to say. After few minutes of silence, the boy spoke again.

"Why are you running like that? Is there something wrong?" He finally talked to her. He seemed calm. "I...I have an important meeting with my client that's why I am in Hurry." She tried to explain herself.

"Oh, okay see you then." He turned around and walked back in the building.

Soo-Yun sighed. "Why Mr. Kang showing affection towards me. He has a son who is older than me." She muttered to herself.

She started walking to her car and finally getting inside. She sat on her driver seat, she turn on the engine and drive off.

Jung-So entered the conference hall and passed a smile to his father, "Good Morning Dad." Mr. Kang eyebrows frowned as his gaze landed on Jung-So chest. There was a locket hanging into his button. Mr. Kang took his step slowly and took out the locket. "Who's locket?" He asked quietly.

Jung-So frowned and took the locket from his father. "It..It's must be hers." Jung-So thoughts. "I'm sorry, it's nothing important." Mr. Kang nodded his head and went back to his place.

"I need to give it back to her." He thought.

"How come I didn't saw her locket earlier?" He wondered.

~*~*~*~*~*~*

Soo-Yun hit the brakes and let out a shaky sigh as she reached her destination.

"Why I always bump into people." She said. She looked down the road and sighed once again. The sun was shining bright on the street as she walked along the sidewalk.

"I need to be more careful." She told herself and proceed to reach her destination.

Once she reached her destination, she knock the door twice and waited for someone to open the door. When the door opened, Soo-Yun bowed at the person. "Hello, Mr. Park." She greeted. "Please, come in."

Soo-Yun nodded her head and went inside the house.

After entering the living room, she took a seat on one of the sofas and waited. Minutes later, the same man came and sat opposite of her. "So, what you wanna ask Ms. Leon?" Mr. Park asked. "I am here to ask you about My father, he used to visit you a lot."

Soo-Yun was a little scared to ask Mr. Park about her father since she doesn't know any details about her father. "You father and I were used to be best friends, but after his sudden death in a car accident I was shocked how could it possible." He let out a sigh and smiled a little. "I told him not to do this it could be dangerous." She heard him mutter under his breath. "He didn't listen though and ended up like this." Soo-Yun stared at him confused. "What do you mean?"

Haneul shifted her position as sunrays hit her face. Her head was resting on a pillow, but she knew it wasn’t going to stay that way. With a groan, she pushed herself up and sat upright.

The light in her room was not the best. She rubbed at the sleep in her eyes. “You should be getting ready,” said one of the maids from across the hall. “Your father is here and Young Master are waiting for you.”

A quick glance towards the window told Haneul that she had slept for hours. It would only take minutes if she hurried. Getting out of bed. That's all she needed to do. Grabbing her clothes, she slipped into the bathroom and quickly cleaned her teeth.

She was nearly finished putting on her shirt when the door opened and two servants entered. One was carrying a tray with breakfast and another carried a stack of scrolls. Setting the items on the table, they bowed before leaving. "Why they send food here?" wondered Haneul aloud, grabbing a slice of bread and an apple.

Her father stepped inside her room and shut the door behind him. His presence caused her to look up, a slice of bread fall down. She immediately stood straight.

"Sit," he ordered.

Haneul sat back down. "You know why am I here?" He asked.

She nodded, trying to appear obedient. "Yes Father."

"You aren't obeying your brother these days." A note of disapproval crept into his voice, causing her to flinch slightly. "Do you understand?"

"I will obey Young Master," she answered quickly. She was used to the criticism. The way her life had worked, she would have been expected to do better than her older brothers. It didn't bother her too much. But she could hear the warning in his words, and that made her feel guilty.

Her father nodded as though he expected as much. "I am sorry dad." He glared at her and sighed. "No accepted." He walked out of her room without saying anything else. She let out the breath she was holding. When she heard the footsteps leave the stairwell, "Why he came back?"
