Chapter 24

That night, Jaejoong decided to take Tiffany out, only both of them. Of course after many bribery & threats to their mischievous sons, they finally made up to dine out alone without the kids. Telling her that he had to attend a court first, he asked her to meet him at the fountain park in front of the town hall before they went to the restaurant.

Jaejoong smiled happily as he had already made perfect plan for both of them. He couldn’t concentrate in the court as his heart was beating fast impatiently to meet his wife.

He still remembered when he finally realized he was falling in love with his big enemy, the girl whom he had mistaken as his father’s mistress. It was three years ago. It was indescribable feeling. It was magic. It was everything that he ever imagined of but the thing that surprised him was that he was falling in love with his enemy.

Tiffany.

She never came close as in the list of people that he liked. The mere thought of her used to make him sick. He was thinking she was a gold digger who was willing to give herself for money. Who could blame his foolish thought when he found his father getting a heart attack on her bed? Everybody would think the same thing as he did, especially when he believed that she was dating his father but things had changed as they had spent most of the time together. Going together as a fake couple in love to France gave him more chances to observe her, especially when he knew her biggest secret, the lost daughter of Kim Hyunjun. He gulped his saliva as he recalled the moments when he had to swallow his anger to face her stubbornness & anger.

She grew from a hard life with a single mother, stubborn, arrogant, full of pride but also as someone beautiful & gentle when she wanted to be! Tiffany possessed an inner beauty, despite her pretty complexion & that was what attracted him the most. She had this inner fire in her that seemed to burn him in such unexplainable pleasure whenever he looked into her beautiful eyes. He couldn’t take his eyes off of her since the day he met her at his father’s office, followed by their further unpleasant meetings. His eyes settled on the beautiful girl with her beautiful eyes, however, her hands were in his father’s.

Jaejoong felt as if the world has stopped spinning completely as Tiffany locked her beautiful eyes on him. His breath was caught in his chest & it took him minutes to recover from that. Never in his life had he ever thought that Tiffany was capable to stir such disturbing wave within him, waking up such foreign emotions inside of him that he couldn’t name & made him tongue tied as she stood & smiled in front of him gracefully with shaking hands.

*Flashback*

Jaejoong had already opened the door harshly. He could senses his father was hiding something fishy in his room.

As the door opened harshly, two people in the room turned their head instantly.

Jaejoong watched in shock. His eyes narrowed. He took in a breath hardly. In front of him, his father was holding a young girl’s hands. He scrutinized her face, ‘She isn’t that bad.’ He said to himself. Her eyes were beautiful. With her hair, her smooth silky skin, beautiful smile & body, she was perfect, ‘Oh god, what am I thinking about?!’ He scolded himself.

As he came closer, he was able to see her face clearly. This must be that little his mother talking about! “Jaejoong. Do you have any manner to knock on the door before coming in?” His father said in an irritating voice.

“I’m sorry, dad.” He said, without dragging his gaze to the young girl in his father’s arms.

“Oh, this is Tiffany. This is my son, Jaejoong. He’s…”

“No need to introduce us, dad. I don’t want to know her.” Jaejoong said coldly.

“Jaejoong.”

Tiffany knitted her eyebrows. She could distinguish the harsh determination stamped on his sharply cut feature, the intelligence in his eyes & the rich sensuality of his lips. She scrutinized his handsome face. He was the most heart-stopping attractive man she had ever seen but his face was cold. He looked at her in disgusts. His eyes flashed in anger & hate. She sighed. She slowly dragged her gaze away from him & stared outside the window.

Suddenly, the phone rang. Mr. Kim glared at his son before taking his phone, “Yes, Yuri?”

He kept quiet, hearing the voice from the other line, “I’m coming. Tell them to wait for me in the conference room.”

He put the phone down. He turned his head to Tiffany & said tenderly, “Tiffany, do you mind waiting for me here? I’ll take you home after the meeting is finished.”

“Oh, I can go by myself. Thank you, Mr. Kim.” Tiffany quickly answered.

“Are you sure? You could be…”

“She will be alright.” The interruption from Jaejoong was a harsh one. His gaze raked over Tiffany again, & this time, she knew he was stripping her mentally.

She nodded weakly, stealing a glance at Jaejoong. Her heart was beating hard, ‘Why does this Kim Jaejoong look like he wanted to kill me?’ She wondered.

“Okay. I’ll call you tonight ok
