From beautiful beaches to mountains and waterfalls, Korea is a visual treat with untouched beauty. Everywhere people go, Seoul was a hustle-bustle with the wide avenues, tall buildings, ubiquitous sky scrappers, pristine beaches, and not to ntion the prosperity of food. It's a county with an outstanding culture.
It was fourteen hours long flight journey. Devin has just landed in Seoul and he was already missing Leena. Even if he spends the whole day with her and he missed her the mont she left.
"It's just a week brother. Stop sulking." Shaking her head, Harley dragged her luggage into the villa which was under Wang's. Despite there were seven to eight people who have co along with Devin, all were staying in the hotel except Harley and Devin.
"If I rember correctly, you were worse than in the past." Devin brought her past when he knew it would instantly put her mouth shut.
"Can you stop bringing his topic every ti?" Harley hissed at the sudden ntion and the past and it pained to recollect the mories. It's been four years but still, she neither could forget him nor the mories they have shared.
"Why don't you talk and resolve the misunderstandings? He is still waiting for you." Devin voiced out his opinion before strolling into the room.
"Still waiting? He is a big fat liar..." With a bitter smile, she stord in anger.
...
Lying on the bed, Regina glanced at the city into the wide-open window, a smirk was ardent on her face. Since she was the chief designer of WD and for the publicity of the designs, she was allowed to travel along with Devin. Although Leena did not accept Regina to be her designer, her significance in the company was impeccable. The na 'Leena' itself would make Regina's blood boil. She doesn't want to slip this rare opportunity of being alone with Devin and she decided it's now or never.
"It's ti to set my plan." She mumbled with an eerie smile. "You will be mine before you go back to New York. You can't escape like how you did in Seattle, my prince charming."
Regina pulled out a phone from her bag and texted a ssage to Victor [Victor: Is everything ready]
She received a response instantly.
[Yes. Don't put him in doubt and act normally for the whole week. We will get success this ti]
With a triumphant smile, she closed her eyes thinking of her future with Devin.
...
The first day was hectic. It was a long day for the team right from talking to the investors, sightseeing, and promoting, everybody was exhausted but Devin was still working. Leena's face would pop up in his mind continuously and he wanted to talk with her but the ti difference between New York and Seoul was considerably huge. It was still half-past six in the evening in Seoul and it would be dawning in New York. He did not want to disturb her sleep. So, he resud his work with a sigh.
When he was almost finalized and ready to go for a shower, his mobile buzzed with a notification.
[Hyun Joon: Annyeo Annyeo...I heard you are in Korea )-]
"It's not even a day I have been here and who inford him?" Devin stared at the ssage for a while before replying. Hyun Joon was his fellow model and they both worked together for an Ad shoot. Later, he started his acting career and beca the most famous actor in Korea. Despite their et rarely due to their busy schedule, both maintained a good friendship over the years.
[How did you know that I am in Korea?]
[Hyun Joon: I have my ways, buddy. Let's catch up. It's been a decade we have t.]
Devin has almost wrapped up his work and it would take ti for Leena to wake up. It's better to et him up otherwise he would pester him every day until he goes back to New York. [Text the address and don't bring a woman along with you]
[Hyun Joon: Geez...I am not a pervert, Devin.]
...
Devin walked into a hotel which his friend has texted the address and just when he arrived in the reception area of the hotel, he could see a group of won whispering.
[geuneun neomu Jal saeng-gyeoss-eo]
[a! geuneun neomu deobda]
Although he could barely hear their voice, with the looks they were bestowing, he believed they are talking about him. He has been garnering attention from won for years but he never cared about them but one complint from Leena would elevate him to the peaks.
Just then a woman appeared in front of Devin and bowed her head. Wearing a professional smile, she asked. "Hello! Welco to the Hotel Imperial. How may I help you"
"No thanks. I am here to et a friend." He smiled and moved to the topmost floor. He scanned for Hyun Joon and at a corner of the room, he saw him waving fervently. Devin was glad that the casanova stood rooted to his words and did not bring a woman along with him unlike before.
"Daebak! Look at you. Your looks are the sa as they were ten years back. " Hyun Joon greeted Devin with a fist-bump.
"I wish I would feel the sa about you." He chuckled. Hyun Joon offered a drink but Devin politely refused. He would never drink except when he is with family or close friends. It's not that he doubts, but he doesn't want to take any risk.
"Hey!! I have been labeled as a baby-faced actor." Hyun Joon put on a pout face hearing Devin's comnts.
Both talked for a while and Devin was about to get up to leave but Hyun Joon pulled him back.
"Can't you stay a little longer? It's not that you have a girlfriend to spend your ti with."
"I have soone I love already," Devin pressed.
"What? Who is it?" He couldn't help but exclaim at the shocking news? But he hasn't seen Devin with anyone from the ti they knew each other.
"You will know in the future. But right now, it is a secret." Having said that Devin left the hotel.
Unbeknownst to him, his every movent was followed by soone from the ti he started at ho and until he left for ho.
...
By the ti he ca back ho, he was fully exhausted and due to the jet lag, he had no proper sleep, and instantly he hit the bed without knowing there was soone eagerly waiting for his call. When Devin woke up in the morning, Leena's ssages flooded into his mobile.
"Damn it! She would kill today." Devin instantly called her mobile but it was not picked up.
"Why must there be a difference in ti zone?" He cursed and sent her voice ssages and got up to get fresh ready for another day.
Days passed and from the ti he left New York, both didn't have a proper talk. Hardly they spoke for five minutes in five days they stayed apart. Either Devin would get busy or Leena gets engaged with her work.
"Inform the team that we will be heading back to New York tonight," Devin remarked. From the day he arrived in New York, he extended his usual hours and finished the task a little early so that he could go back to Leena soon. Every piece of him was aching for her. Only he knew how much he is dying to see her.
"Yay! Thanks, brother. I am missing mom and dad a lot." Harley half sobbed and half laughed with the thought of returning ho. "Then let's go shopping. Didn't Leena tell you to bring things?"
With a nod, he opened his mobile and checked the notes in which Leena has listed all the things she wanted.
...
It was good that Harley helped him with shopping. With the things Leena jotted, it would have taken days searching for them. Despite his unwillingness to and buy her dresses, his legs gave away. He cannot see her accusing face when she sees that he did not bring her favorites. She looks as if Devin has betrayed her.
Finally, they brought the red ginseng which was on the last list and Harley asked him to wait for a while and went into an antique shop. When he was about to open the car door, a woman appeared in front of him. He frowned seeing her here.
"Sir, can I talk with you for a while?" With a shy smile, Regina asked.
"You can contact Harley if it is work-related." He inford with scorn. Why did she co here all of a sudden?
"I_I it's not office related. I want to talk personally." She fidgeted with her dress, fingers clamd with tension.
"I don't have ti.." With disgust, he added and when he was about to step into the car, his hand was tightly held by Regina and even before he could release it forcefully, he was hugged from behind.
