[Still at Agent Helios POV]
Seeing her back, my expression imdiately softened as if the suffocating air was gone in an instant. Before I knew it, I was staring at her.
’Right. I have a partner who can help in these kinds of situations. I wonder if she’ll help a little? But then, she might still be angry at .’
"Ah, if it isn’t Ms. Kim," Ms. Choi replied to her. "I’m Mira Choi, daughter of Roy Choi, one of his father’s business partners," she introduced herself. "Forgive for occupying this space right now, but we’re talking about sothing important. If you don’t mind, spare us so ti to talk, and you can use my reserved seat instead over there."
What the—what did she just say? The nerve of this woman! How could she ask my wife to sit sowhere else?!
Scoffing, I opened my mouth to defend Ye-Ji, but I was a second late. She already replied to her with much confidence.
"There’s no need to worry about , Ms. Choi," she said. "You can continue talking all you want. I already have a seat."
Then, she walked toward and, to my surprise, sat on my lap and wrapped her arms around my neck. She even leaned her head on my shoulder, acting like a cute, spoiled wife as she should be.
"What else could be the best seat for but my husband’s lap, right?"
She smiled so sweetly at and touched my face gently. The mont she did, my heart suddenly began to hamr in my chest.
Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump!
Her hands felt warm. And for so reason, I wasn’t repulsed by her touch.
Now that I think about it, she even sat on my lap and wrapped her arms around , but I didn’t find it sickening. Whenever we kissed, I never once felt disgusted by her. Or when she undressed in the boutique before and changed into her suit, I didn’t feel anything bad. Was it because I knew she had no interest in ? Yeah, it must be. And she never looked at like a hungry hyena.
Instead of disgust, it felt... natural, comfortable even. It was as if I didn’t mind where her hands touched , where her lips kissed , or whatever she did—wait, no. I would probably still be repulsed if she tried doing more than that. Ugh. Why am I even thinking this? Anyway, I should reply.
"Ha-ha-ha. Of course, my dear wife," I replied with a chuckle. And this ti, without smiling in a fake manner. "It’s my pleasure to let you sit on my lap."
I pulled her closer and held her by the waist.
"Good," she smiled back and caressed my face. "But do tell , my dear husband, are you alright? You looked quite uncomfortable earlier?"
Hm? She’s suddenly talking formally. Glancing at the angered Ms. Choi, I think I understand why. I should do the sa and support her. She’s my wife, after all.
"Ah, so you noticed," I sighed. "Indeed, I was uncomfortable. This is the first ti I have t her, yet she kept touching as if we were close acquaintances."
"Aww, my poor husband," she fussed over , looking so worried. "Where did she touch you?"
Amused by her worried expression, I continued humoring her.
"Here, the back of my hand and my arm. She even used her feet to touch my leg," I deliberately acted pitifully.
"Ah! The audacity!" she yelled, loud enough for the reporters to hear. "That is no simple touch. That is flirting! Is she that desperate to appeal to you? And she knows that you have a wife, yet she still did it? How vulgar!"
’I guessed it right. I know where this is going now. Ha-ha-ha. How witty of her.’
"Yes,’ I nodded. "I told her the seat across was yours, but she continued to sit down nonetheless."
"Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Ah... How shaless," she sighed.
Then, she turned her head to Ms. Choi’s direction and looked down at her, deliberately taunting her. But this b*tch wouldn’t go without a fight.
"Ha-ha-ha," Ms. Choi laughed. "He was enjoying my touch earlier, though. He only changed his attitude when you ca."
LIES! Ugh! So annoying! If only I could, I would have killed her earlier.
"Is that so?" Agent Selene asked. "Does yanking his arms and pulling his feet away an enjoynt for you? Does his face turning sour, filled with disgust, an he’s happy with what you did? It seems to that we have a different understanding of what the term ’enjoynt’ really ans."
Wow. She’s quite a fighter with words as well, huh? How fun.
Hearing her defend was quite pleasant. I didn’t think she had it in her to fight with words this way. I didn’t even think she would defend . She knew we were after Ms. Choi, and I needed to be alone with her to get intel. If she saw us talking from the washroom, she should have let us be and let the ti pass first. But then, she ca back.
’Was she... worried about ? Did she see how I hated Ms. Choi’s flirtatious acts? That’s why she ca back to help? If so, that’s... nice of her.’
"You are right," Ms. Choi scoffed and crossed her arms. Looking down at Agent Selene, she continued, "We truly have a different understanding of certain things. After all, we ca from different backgrounds—I ca from a prestigious family of Elites, and you are...?"
But Agent Selene wouldn’t back down.
"I am from a humble ho of loving parents who taught good manners and wisdom to discern right from wrong, such as... not to flirt with married n," she replied, copying her gesture. "Certainly, there is such a big difference in the upbringing."
Pfft! Ha-ha-ha! I wanted to laugh so badly.
"One is a mannequin dressed in the finest luxuries but contains nothing inside—just an empty shell. While the other is a geode—a hollow rock on the outside but filled with the rarest treasures inside. Surely, anyone can tell which is more valuable than the other."
"Pft! Ha-ha-ha!" I laughed, unable to contain it anymore.
Then, I hugged her from behind and kissed her cheeks while smiling proudly at her. She really did a great job this ti.
"Ahhh... my wife truly is the rarest treasure in the world."
