Hilary's POV

"Choi SeungHyun!" The person called him again.  This time, the voice was much clearer.  Meaning the person was much closer to us.

I pulled SeungHyun again, "Hear it?  It's you."

I could hear him let out a frustrated sigh, as he finally turned around.  I turned around as well to find this person already standing right in front of us......

*  *  *

SeungHyun's POV

I of course could hear someone called me from behind and I sure knew what that was.  But I did not want to turn around.  I just wanted to leave with Hilary as soon as possible......

*  *  * 

Hilary's POV

I looked at this person standing in front of us.  I haven't seen this person before.  But she seemed to know who I was.

"You must be Kim EunHi." She said with a smile, somehow quite intimidating.  Her skin was white as snow and hair was long and jet black.  She sure was a pretty woman.

She gave out her hand to me and continued, "Hello, I'm Krystal Jung."

I reluctantly took her hand and said, "Hi, Hilary Kim.  Nice meeting you!"

"The pleasure is all mine." She smirked.  I wondered what that smirk was all about.

"SeungHyun, can I have a word with you?" She pulled away her hand and reached out to SeungHyun's arm immediately as she spoke to him.

I couldn't help but chuckle a little at her rudeness.  Just before I wanted to say something, Krystal said, "You don't mind if I borrow your fiance for a short while, right?"

SeungHyun immediately looked me in the eyes, as if he wanted me to say 'no'.  I raised my chin a little and said with a confident smile, "Sure.  I'll wait in the car."

I patted SeungHyun on the chest and said, "Take your time!"  I briefly kissed him on the cheek before I turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

I tried to hold myself together and be calm.  I hung onto my clutch tightly as I walked to the car.

Driver Kim was already standing by the door, "Is Choi Sajang not coming?"

I forced myself to give him a smile and said as I got in the car, "He'll be here in a minute."

"Yes, Ma'am." Driver Kim closed the door behind me and stood outside the car to wait.

I slowly took a deep breath to clear my head.  I kept telling myself in the head, "Trust your man!  She is just some business partner who is desparately trying to flirt with your handsome fiance.  He will not be interested in her.  Be confident, Kim EunHi."

*  *  *

SeungHyun's POV

It hurt my heart to watch Hilary walked away from me like this.

I turned to Krystal and asked, "What do you want?"

Krystal pulled away her hand and said, "So, that is the famous Kim EunHi?  And I thought she was so pretty since JiYong and you are all fallen for her.  But seems like I'm wrong."

"What do you want, Krystal?" I asked again.

She folded her arms across her chest and looked me in the eyes, "I didn't come back for no reason, SeungHyun.  I already told you what I want in New York.  I didn't know you have such a bad memory.  Need me to remind you again?"  She leaned forward to me a little as she said.

I pulled away instinctly and took a step backward, "And I told you whatever you want, you won't find it from me."

"Ha!  You sure?"

"I don't need to prove myself to you.  Now, will you excuse me?  My fiance is waiting." I tried to turn around to leave but she grabbed my arm and stopped me.

"SeungHyun, I'm serious."

"So do I." I looked her in the eyes and said affirmatively.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll prove that you are wrong.  I WILL get what I want."

I let out a sigh, "Good night, Krystal!"

I swung her off and walked out of the door.

*  *  *

I ran out to the car immediately.  Driver Kim was standing beside the car.

"Is Hilary inside?" I asked, but scared to know the answer.

Driver Kim shook his head, "She was."

I let out a heavy sigh and said, "Take me home."

"Sajang Nim, Kim Isa went to the playground around the corner.  She said she'll wait for you over there."

I looked at him in disbelief.  He nodded with a smile.  I couldn't help but smile myself.  I patted him on the arm and ran towards the playground.

*  *  *

I stood from a distance and looked at my beautiful fiance walking barefoot on the grass under the moonlight.  She was everything a man could ask for.  She was everything I wanted.  My heart still pounded heavily everytime I saw her.

"You know it's not safe to walk on the grass barefoot?  You might walk on something sharp and cut your feet." I said softly as I walked closer to her.

Hilary was being startled by my voice and lost her balance as she looked up to see what I was.  I quickly stepped close and pulled her to me by her waist before she fell.

"Wheww...  Miss Kim, you really need to get rid of this tripping-and-falling habit, you know?" I kept her close to me with my arms around her waist.

She playfully hit me on the chest as she said, "I wouldn't have tripped if you didn't sneak out from behind."

"I most certainly did not.  And I always thought your heels were the problem.  But I just realize it is actually those little feet of yours that seems can't stop stepping on each other."

She giggled and leaned her head on my chest, "You said you will always be there to pick me up."

"Yes, I will." I held her tight in my arms and embraced this lovely moment of ours which seemed to be since such a long time.

Hilary wrapped her arms around me and squeezed me tight as well.  That moment, everything seemed so right again.

*  *  *

Hilary's POV

I wished the moment could stop and freeze forever.  Everything seemed so right when I was in his arms.  Everything was clear and it seemed that no problem on earth that couldn't be solved.

A cool wind breezed over the playground which made me shiver a little.

SeungHyun ran his hands up and down on my arms and asked, "Are you cold?  Let's get back to the car before you catch a cold."

I slightly shook my head, "I'm alright."  I suddenly remembered why we were here in the playground in the first place.  I somehow waited for him to tell me what was it about with this Krystal Jung; but it seemed that he wouldn't speak unless I asked him first.

Yet, I decided to keep my silence and waited for him to tell me instead.

"You sure?" SeungHyun hugged me tight again as he said.

I nodded, "Mmm...  Just hold me for a little while."

He squeezed me tighter and said, "For as long as you want, my love."

*  *  *

I couldn't help but think about this Krystal Jung we met at the restaurant.  That confident look in her eyes and that smirk on her face.  They all seemed to aim at me.

I pressed the inter-com button and said, "Kang Biseo?"

DaeSung came in within 30 seconds, "Yes, Kim Isa Nim."

"Oppa, sit down!" I waved at him and said.

He looked at me with puzzled eyes and asked as he sat down, "Something wrong?   Need me to do some dirty things for you?"

I chuckled, "Since when did I ever ask you to do dirty things?"

"Well, there's always a first time."

I couldn't help but laugh at his answer and reaction, "I'm not asking you to do anything illegal.  Don't worry."

He put up a confident smirk and asked, "Of course.  But that doesn't rule out the possibility of the thing you are about to ask me to do is something sneaky though."

"Ha!  Oppa, no wonder SeungRi said your symbol should be a 'dog'.  You are not only loyal, you have a sensitive nose too." I teased.

He drew his brows together a little and said, "And what is Choi SeungRi?  A panda because of those black eyes?  Or a rat because of he is always being chased by the mighty cat CL?"

I laughed out loud at his words, "Good one.  I shall tell SeungRi about this."

DaeSung put his hands together and begged, "No, please.  EunHi, don't!"

I put away my smiling face and leaned forward to speak to him seriously, "Then help me to look into a person.  Quietly.  Can't let anyone know.  I mean, ANYONE but me."

He leaned closer and said softly, "Who is this person?"

I looked him in the eyes and said, "Quietly."

He gave me an affirmative nod and said, "My lips are sealed.  Not going to tell anyone.  Not even Minzy.  Don't worry.  Can you tell me who is this person now?"

*  *  *

DaeSung's POV

I knew it.  I knew it had something to do with that.  So this was everyone worried about.  It took me no effort to find out almost everything about this person, except the reason of the reappearance of this person.

"Oppa, find out anything?" EunHi asked anxiously.

I sat down on the chair in front of her desk and said proudly, "Who am I?  I'm Kang DaeSung, who would never let you down."

EunHi chuckled a little, "Of course.  And I trust you haven't told anyone about anything you found out, right?"

I nodded, "Of course.  I work for you and I only report to you.  I'm a professional."

"Good.
