Eryca's Plan
Monsieur meets his Mademoiselle
"Of course I'm not going anywhere because this is my place. You're the only who needs to get lost." She said while his arms the still locked on her waist.
His grab became more uptight. "You're too smart, Mademoiselle. But I think I can call you and me 'the dumb and the dumber' now." He smirked.
"Ask me that question again." He added.
Shinhye looked at him directly. "What question?"
"After you got the deal, when we pretend to be a rookie company."
"I don't remember."
"Ask me.. If I like you.. Again.." He slowly said.
"Why?"
"Because I think my answer wouldn't be the same anymore."
"You like me?" She asked hysterically.
"If I say yes, what would you respond?"
"That would be like winning a lottery, a thrill jackpot."
"Was that a yes?"
"But I don't draw my numbers in the first place, why would I win it?"
Slowly, Yonghwa breaks off with Shinhye. "That's my expected answer from you. I didn't even jinx it."
"I'm going now.. So sorry to bother you.. I'll see you tomorrow." He sadly said. Walking away.
As soon as Yonghwa reached the main door.
He heard some footsteps.
Shinhye his front.
She smiled beautifully.
"Don't smile at me like that. You just dumped me a while ago, don't you remember?"
"Did I dumped you?" She innocently questioned him.
"Are you playing with me?"
"Of course. It's fun."
"You're the one who's having fun. Every time."
Shinhye step a little in front of him.
Tip-toed.
Enough to reached his ears.
"I don't draw in the first place but I'm planning to bet my numbers early in the morning." She whispered very sweetly.
Yonghwa was clueless.
Maybe he's too overwhelm with what she meant.
He smiled.

Shinhye saw Yonghwa waiting at her at the post.
"Have you choose your numbers already?"
She smiled. "Before I answer your question try to fish some deal today."
"That's what I'm doing."
"Where?"
"You, I'm going to get you. Win over you. Today."
"Am I a deal?"
"A perfect deal."
Mademoiselle's phone rang. "It's Jonghyun." She said.
Yonghwa took the call. "Jonghyun, it's me. Don't call her from now on."
Jonghyun laughed over the line. "Why? Why wouldn't I? I told she's my mark 42."
"Stop with the silliness. I know you. You just got the daughter of Lee Co. Ltd yesterday night."
"She's just my friend." He said.
"What about the woman in front you? Just a friend also?" Yonghwa asked.
"Yong, relax. As if you're not like me." He laughed.
"Yes, I'm like you, so I know our capacities in making things like these. But not with her."
"What about Eryca?" Jonghyun's voice suddenly changed.
"She's out of the box."
"No, she own the box we're residing. I just got the background of their empire. And I was so convinced why your Dad wants to connect with them."
"More powerful than us?" He boasted.
"Their empire is a sleeping traitor. Watch yourself, Yong." He hanged up.
"It seems the revenge of Eryca is coming soon." She said.
"Do you think also of that? Do I need to beware of them?"
"They're aren't just a fashion company. They have all the tricky side."
"That's why you haven't draw your numbers?" He smiled.
Shinhye smiled back. "Dummy."

"Shinhye"
"Stop calling me."
"It seems that we're very close, the fact I know a lot from you."
"Why your heart flutters?" She asked.
Yonghwa laughs defensively. "How can you ask those questions coolly? Seriously.."
"No I'm not. It's just that you're too dumb to understand what I really mean."
"Tell me more about yourself then." He asked.
"You know all of it already. Stop asking."
"No, I want to know you better than what I know now."
"CEO Jung, it seems that you fell too much in such a perfect deal."
"Absolutely fell but haven't got it. As a lobbyist, when can I get it? I need an advice."
"I can't really tell." She giggled.
"You're a lobbyist, you must know when!" He shouted.
Shinhye can't say at all. She stuttered. "The time you change your hairstyle, that's the time!"
"Hair?"
"Yep."
"I can't change my hair. This is too precious."
"Then you can't know when or it'll not happening either."

"Sit down."
"Why did you call me?"
"Let's have a deal."
Jonghyun sip his coffee.
"You like that Mademoiselle, right?"
Jonghyun didn't reply.
"And Yonghwa is mine." She said. Eryca said.
"What exactly do you want?"
"Let's turn them down. Those two. So we can get our prizes. Respective prizes, I mean."
Jonghyun stared at her.
"Why aren't you answering back? Do you even know what is that Mademoiselle?"
"What do you mean?"
"Nuh, that's she's just a smart lobbyist." She lied.
Jonghyun smiled. "I know that."
"Let's break them apart so we can get them solo." She said.
"As you know, Jung Empire will be mine. They can't beat me."
"Your empire are playing gambits."
"Yes but these days seems that Mademoiselle is giving it all to Yonghwa."
"Fashion industry is just an impromptu?" He smirked.
"Yonghwa doesn't know but I think we're going to be engaged at the end of the month."
"Everything is planned?" He asked.
"Of course. You just have to ride with it."
