“No one ever told me that I have to marry that arrogant bastard next month!” Chaerin walking fast to her room with Matt and Mae walking behind her. “No one!”

“Miss, we also didn’t know about that…” Mae tried to explain.

“Liar!” she shouts, “Sonho knew about it!”

Mae gulped, if Sonho knew, it means that Mae also knew since both of them are the assistants.

Chaerin sighed again, “He is…”

“What did he do now?”

“I… uh—“ she tried to combined words, “I gotta marry him soon.”

“Like how soon?”

“Maybe in few months.”

“How may few months is that, Babe?”

Chaeirn gulped, “Two months.”

Ash is silence, he didn’t even replied.

“Babe…” Chaerin called him.

“Well… I can’t say anything.”

“Babe… come on…”

Ash inhaled a heavy breath, “Congrats, babe.”

“No… baby…” she whined.

“Just so you know, I love you even though you’re with that bastard.”

“I love you too… please… you promised that you’re gonna stay!”

“Yes, baby…” Ash sighed.

“I will make things right! Don’t worry… he promised me that we can be together at the end.”

“How?”
