In Love With Ghost
Jieun's POV
"Are you sure this is your house?" I stopped a few feet away and stared a big house standing in front of me in amazement.
"Of course."
Woohyun looked at me as if I asked an incredibly stupid question. The house looked so luxurious, it stood in the middle of vast green lawn with a beautiful flower garden surrrounding it. I turned off the engine and turned to him.
"Are you sure we are not in wrong address?" I hesitated, still not believing it. "I mean you could be mistaken in your memory and it turns out that this isn’t your house, but it’s in the next block. I can turn around if you want to make sure—“
"Wait, do you think I can’t recognize my own house?" He interrupted me with annoyance. He studied me for a few seconds, his expression was unpredictable. "Have you entered a wrong house?"

"Where are you from?"
"I’m Jieun Lee, from Seoul. I came for mourning."
" Can you give us your ID card?"
" Oh." I pulled out my ID card and handed it to the other creepy-looking man. They are all well-built with the same black suit.
"Please come in." He nodded slightly and stepped back, giving me way.
"Just go straight."
Woohyun muttered when he saw me driving with hesitation. I was thinking about where I would park my car. Up close, his house looks so stunning. There are several luxury cars parked near a row of polished white marble staircase, I took the parking lot next to a shiny dark blue BMW. A middle-aged man dressed in the same black suit rushing toward me from the right side of the house when I got out of the car.
"Miss Lee Jieun." He smiled and held out his hand and I shook it. "I'm Sungjong, the head butler of this house. Please come with me, mistress and the young lady Nam are waiting inside." I g
