"So do we get to celebrate our wedding anniversary tonight?" Myungsoo asked as he parked the car in front of CJ E&M Building. 

"I thought you'll be in Busan with Yoseob oppa? Won't you two be home late?" You asked

"Oh honey you know I will never let you drive by yourself. I'll finish as fast as I can then pick you up?"

"Oppa don't you think it's about time you let me drive by myself?" You took his hand and asked. Ever since he thought he'd lost you eight years ago, he never let you drive by yourself. If ever he can't pick you up, he will always have a bodyguard and driver do the job for him. 

"I'm sorry. I know this is selfish of me, but please understand. I almost lost you. Not once, but twice. I don't know what to do if I have to go through that again." He cupped your cheeks

"This is really too much. I mean Mr. Lee is in jail now. He can't touch me or our families for that matter" You sighed

"You know my family's and your family's background. Even when we quit being a gang, that doesn't stop our enemies to go after us"

"You guys are too protective" You complained "Even my brothers are too much"

"It's because we love you. I love you. We all felt how it's like when you're gone. That time when we all thought you were dead was really unbearable for us" He kissed your forehead "So let us work in peace by letting us take care of your security ok?" 

"Ok fine..Be careful oppa!" You gave him a peck on the lips before getting off

Myungsoo watched as you entered the building. He admits he's being too much, but he can't help it. He thought he's lost you forever when Lee Joon took you and faked your death. He can't go through that pain of losing you again. He drove away as soon as he saw you enter the building safely.

*****

As soon as you entered the building, the employees bowed at you. Despite being nice to them, they know you're still strict when it comes to work.

"Mam, the CEO for Tuan Industries will be here in ten minutes. We have prepared sandwhiches and coffee from your favorite cafe for snacks. The agenda for the meeting is already in the conference room. The meeting should roughly last for about an hour or two hours max. I have requested a tour guide to assist Mr. Tuan in roaming around Seoul, after all this is his first time in our country." Your secretary, Nana, briefed you

"Thank you, but can you cancel the tour guide? Doojoon oppa called me last night saying he wanted me to personally give Mr. Tuan a tour. Besides it's a good way to learn more about my business partner this time right?" You smiled before entering the conference room. Surely, just like what Nana said, everything was organized and set up well in the conference room. "By the way. Can you order me two yellow gold Cartier bracelet with eight diamonds?. One is to be delivered here and the other is to be delivered to my husband today. He is currently in Busan for his project, but make sure he gets it by noon" You told Nana

"Did you by any chance forget it's your anniversary today?" Nana whispered in your ears. Despite your professional relationship, the two of you have become friends as well

"Oh just do it for me! Thanks Nana! You're the best!"  You said as you took your seat.

At exactly 10:00 AM, Mark Tuan entered the conference room with his company's Vice-president Jackson Wang. You stood up and exchanged greetings with them in fluent English.

"Wow I did not expect the Director of Marketing to be this young" Jackson said as he took his seat beside Mark

"I did not expect to see a young CEO for Tuan Enterprises as well." You said as you turned to look at Mark. 

"Ah yes..." Mark whispered. He can't help but stare at you. Of course you're beautiful, but he can't help look at you because you resemble her. His wife who passed away two years ago.

"Uhm Mark. Now is not the right time to flirt with our business partner" Jackson nodge the young CEO

"Ah. Sorry about that. It's a pleasure to be here right now" He tried to push his personal thoughts away.

"We pretty much know what the project is going to be. I have already drafted an outline of the mall for the construction in Jeju. For Japan though,  I want to hear your input on how you would like the mall to be built. Again, thank you so much for choosing Tuan Industries as the main engineer for building your malls in Jeju and Japan" Jackson said. You took note how the Vice-president speaks more than the CEO himself.

"It's our pleasure to work with you as well. After all, your company is known for best constructed buildings all around the globe right?" You smiled at them. You know you're going to get along with them just fine.

After an hour of talking more about the project in Jeju and the ideas you have for the mall in Japan, Jackson insisted you give them a tour around Seoul right now.

"Jackson now is not the time. We still have to..." Mark couldn' t continue further as his best friend pulled you out from your seat

"Oh grow up Mark. It's time to have fun" Jackson said in fluent Korean

"You speak Korean?" You turned to the two

"We speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean, Thai and English. What can I say? Our group of friends is multi-cultural" Jackson laughed "Let's go!" Jackson said as he pulled you towards the parking lot. Employees couldn't help but stare at the two new business partners. You can't blame them though. You admit, they are charming. Jackson opened the car door for you. He was about to go to the driver's seat when you stopped him

"Hm I think I should drive. I believe I'm giving you the tour right?" You laughed "Oh that is, if you'll let me drive your car" You politely asked. You almost forgot that they are not really your friend, but they are your business partners.

"Oh of course! No need to be polite by the way. Don't dare call me Mr. Wang or call Mark Mr. Tuan. Just call us by our first names. And of of course, we can just call you with your first name right?" Jackson asked before handing you the keys

"Of course" You smiled as you took the key from him

Mark sat at the back while Jackson took the passenger seat. It's amazing how Mark can stand the talkative Vice-president, but you learned that they are best friends, so that states the reason how he has tolerance towards his extrovert friend. You briefly toured them around Insadong then drove towards Manhattan Grill in Gangnam for lunch. You have asked your secretary to make reservation for you while you were giving them a tour.

"I'm impressed. The young Director of CJ E&M is not only good in business but is really good as a tour-guide too. We should start with a new project for tourists like us" Jackson said before looking over the menu

Moments later, Nana approached you with a Cartier box and told you that Myungsoo should receive his soon. As if on cue, Myungsoo's name appeared on your phone screen. You excused yourself and took the call.

"So, I see someone is guilty for forgetting her own wedding anniversary" Myungsoo laughed on the other line

"Is it too cheesy to give my husband a couple bangle?" You asked as you slightly twist your long brown hair

"Of course not. I wore it right away. Eight diamonds for eight years huh? What will we do? All those diamonds will eventually run out because we will be together forever"

'"Oh oppa. You're so cheesy." You smiled

"So, how's the meeting?"

"I have so much to tell you! Did you know that..." You were stopped by Yoseob's voice

"Ok your brother is making a scene again. Calling me out loud. Honey can you get Doojoon hyung to change my partner? Because my dad is totally in it just like father-in-law is."

"They just want the two of you to get along. Go on now. Don't get my brother to cause such a scene. I don't want to hear a headline tomorrow saying that my 30-year old brother is too immature" You playfully laughed.

"I love you..." Myungsoo said before hanging up

*****

"I know what you're thinking Mark" Jackson spoke in Chinese 

"She looks just like Myung Hee" Mark said

"I know...they resemble, but she's gone Mark. We're looking at another person. _________. Keep that in mind. Plus she's married too so you can't go after her" Jackson warned

"I'm not going after her. You know my priority is Michelle." Mark said as he turned his head towards your direction. He saw you smiling and assumed you're talking to your husband. "But you really look like Myung Hee...how is that possible though? I probably just miss my wife" Mark sadly thought.
