Why [hiatus]I didn’t know how long we stood staring at each other, but it was evident that he was also in shock.
“Hey man you okay?” asked Mr. Lee patting him on the back after a few seconds of silence.
“…Um..yea… Nice to meet you, I’m Jeon Jungkook, the CEO of Jeon Corporation.” He said looking at me with an intense stare that I could basically feel burning a hole through me. Unexpectedly he stuck out his hand indicating a handshake.
I hesitantly took his hand and shook it while bowing.
“It’s nice to meet you” I said quietly. As I was going to let go, I felt his hand squeeze mine. I quickly retracted and looked away.
“…okay…” said Mr. Lee taking note of the awkward atmosphere. “I’ll be down in my office if you need anything Ms. Bora.”
