He was wearing a plain white shirt and blue jeans, which was refreshing to see because till now, I had always seen him wearing suits. The informal dress was making him less intimidating, and I was able to breathe more. It was almost like five years before.
Almost.

I Called in sick the next day since I didn't have the energy to drag myself even to bed after what had happened last night.Why was my life such a tragic comedy? Why did everything always go wrong? Most of all, why was I so freaking dumb? Maybe the answer was in the question, everything anyway went wrong because I was so freaking stupid.Somehow, I pulled myself up and crawled onto my bed. I felt too much pain to move a little, the coffee was too hot when it made contact with my skin, it left a mark behind. I stayed there all day, trying to figure out how to deal with the mess I had gotten myself into. A smart human would resign at this point and start their life from a scratch, no matter how difficult. But wasn't an intelligent human, I was still hoping to find a way. I didn't want to run away this time, I wanted to face it. As long as I was in Seoul, there was going to be a way to make things work out. There had to be. I just h

I told you to arrange them Alphabetically. How dumb do you have to be, not to understand that?" He threw away the files I had just put on his table after looking briefly through them.Three days didn't do anything to calm him down. He had become even more meaningful if anything. But I had to put up with it because I was the one who had brought us to this point."I thought... " I picked up the files one by one and held them close to my chest, looking down."You thought? Oh, so you do have that kind of ability? Thinking?" he asked in a sarcastic voice, looking up at me.I preferred to look at my knuckles instead of answering him."Answer me!" He roared, standing up and hitting the table with both his hands."I'm sorry...""Get out!" he said, rubbing his temple. At this point, he was angrier th

Somehow, I made it through the week.Mario called Saturday evening and asked me what I was doing that Sunday."I thought maybe I should go out and check the city... maybe the palaces..." Because my "foolproof" plan of avoiding him was now lying in the depths of a trashcan anyway, and I had decided to go a little loose on myself since nobody else would."Oh, great! I love palaces; I'll come with you... if you don't mind?""Uh... okay."Hanging out with him was always fun, but still... somewhere in my heart it made me uneasy. It wasn't because I was still hoping I could get back with Landon. It was probably because that boy had predicted it too accurately five years ago, that I would never be able to fall in love with someone else and I didn't want Daniel to get hurt because of me.---I

I invited Mario in for a coffee after taking me back to my apartment, and he accepted.I went up to the kitchen and began preparing my coffee while he sat on the couch in the living room.I took the spot with as much distance as possible away from him and placed the tray on the table, after letting him pick a mug."Landon didn't seem too happy when he saw you there..." he said, swirling the contents of the mug for a bit before sipping. It seemed as if he was avoiding any eye contact with me."Yeah well, you could say he doesn't like me a lot. What about you, he wasn't exactly nice with you either?" I asked, holding up a plate of cream puffs to him, which he examined for a few seconds and then politely declined."I'm afraid he doesn't like me too much either. I was worried maybe it's because of me he was mad at you.""Oh. Wh

I am so bored here!" I whined, taking a handful of crisps from the bag and slapping them onto my face."You are one lucky bitch, but you don't even know how to appreciate it." rose laughed on the other side of the screen. She was holding seven months old girl, trying to feed her from a bottle while two four-year-old boys were running around her, making a lot of noise."I wish I had gotten married to a nice guy and settled somewhere. Maybe then...""Yeah, maybe you'd also be yelling at your kids right now through a video chat! WOULD YOU TWO STOP IT!" She yelled at the boys."You don't understand..." I sighed."Honestly I don't, like why would someone with a deadly handsome boss, a good job, living in a beautiful cosmopolitan city complain about their life.

Hey, I was looking for you" He said to her, I could feel him standing just behind me. His voice... it felt so calm and so sad..."Yeah me too. I don't even know why you left just like that. Where did you go?""Never mind.""Whatever" "she rolled her eyes "So here's your P.A.""I know."How could his voice be so calm?After everything that happened..."Alrighty Crystal, why don't you come to hang out with us?""No... I-I was leaving for dinner...""Just exactly what we were planning next! Come on, let's go!" She threw a hand over my shoulder, and as we turned around, my eyes met his.It felt as if my heartbeat stopped, as I let myself fall deep and still more profound in those dark eyes. And they almost mirrored mine.

Crystal wasn't feeling too good these days, so she thought of booking an appointment with the doctor. She picked up her phone to do so when her phone buzzed with a message from an unknown number. She looked at it skeptically, but curiosity got the better of her. The message read, "Meet me at the café on the corner at 5 pm tonight. I have something important to discuss with you."Crystal pondered over the message, wondering who could be texting her from an unknown number. She decided to reply to the message, "Who is this?"A few moments later, the phone buzzed again. The reply read, "It's Sara. Please come to the café tonight. It's really important."Crystal's heart skipped a beat. She hesitated for a moment before replying to Sara's message. She wasn't sure if meeting with Sara was a good idea, given their history. But she also didn't want to ignore the message, considering that Sara was Landon's close friend.After a few moments of deliberation, Crystal decided to reply, "I'm sorry,

"It's not good for Sara to work under me. How can you make such a decision?""Considering what happened between Sara and Crystal, I cannot risk having Sara anywhere near my wife. However, I also do not want to send her back to her father. So for now, it is best for her to work with you.""Landon, I understand that what happened between Sara and Crystal was not good, and I take responsibility for it. However, I cannot be around Sara when I am trying my best to move on from my feelings for her. My sole purpose of taking over my father's business was to distract myself from Sara and focus on my family and company.""Justin, I understand where you're coming from. Moving on from someone you have feelings for can be really hard. But I also believe that sometimes we need to confront our feelings head-on to truly move forward. I have a feeling that Sara may have feelings for you too, and maybe working together could help you both explore those feelings and see where they lead.""I completely

He kissed her forehead gently and covered her body with the blanket before getting dressed.As he checked the time, he realized it was almost 11 AM. He picked up Crystal's clothes and dressed her before carrying her in his arms. He walked towards his car and carefully placed her in the back seat, making sure she was comfortable. He placed a pillow near her head for support before closing the door.As Landon drove home, he couldn't help but smile at the thought of his wife, Crystal, sleeping peacefully in the backseat. He was grateful that she had been so exhausted that she hadn't woken up during their journey back home.Upon arriving home, he carefully lifted Crystal from the car and carried her inside, laying her gently on the bed. He covered her with a blanket and sat beside her, watching her sleep.After a few hours, Cryst

"I love you " Crystal said in between the kiss. Landon heart did a flip as he pulled crystal closer to him and kissed crystal passionately, their lip moving messily against the each other.As they continued to kiss, Landon's mind raced with a mixture of emotions - joy, excitement, and a tinge of nervousness. Those three words said by crystal made his heart skip a beat.With his arm still around her waist, Landon deepened the kiss, pouring all his love and affection into it. It was a moment of pure bliss for both of them, as they lost themselves in the passion and intensity of the moment.Eventually, they broke the kiss, both gasping for breath. Landon looked into Crystal's eyes "I love you so so much my love " he said, his voice filled with sincerity and devotion.Crystal wiped away her tears and asked Landon,"Do you really want to leave me?"

As they sat there, enjoying the beautiful view and each other's company. Landon picked up his wine glass and take a sip, his grace was still on her face as he spoke. "Truly beautiful"Crystal looked up at Landon, her eyes brimming with emotion. "Yes the beaches are specially beautiful at night" she said, her voice soft. Landon picked something up from the side and stood up. He took a step closer to her, his eyes locked on hers. "You know, I was talking about you earlier," he said, his voice low and intimate. "You look just as beautiful tonight as you did the day we first met."Crystal felt her heart skip a beat as she looked up at her husband. " Why... are you behaving so cheesy today" she whispered.Landon leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. Ignoring her question he placed a flower bouquet in her hand "Here's a bouquet of flowers to match the beauty of my woman who brightens up my life every single day" he murmured, his hand caressing her cheek.She looked down at the

Crystal was feeling restless as she sat in the passenger seat, blindfolded, and with no idea where Landon was taking her. Her curiosity was getting the better of her, and she couldn't resist asking him again, "Landon, where are we going?" Landon let out a small chuckle before saying, "Shh... love. I am driving, don't disturb me and sit quietly." Crystal sighed, feeling frustrated but also a little amused by Landon's teasing. She had been excited when he had asked her to get ready for a surprise, but she never imagined it would involve being blindfolded and taken on a mystery drive. As they drove on, she could hear the sound of cars passing by, and she felt the gentle breeze blowing through the open window. She tried to imagine where they could be heading, but Landon had not given her any clue, and the anticipation was making her anxious. Despite her attempts to stay quiet, she couldn't resist asking again, but this time landon cut her off before she could speak. " Landon just chuc

The room was filled with executives, all eagerly awaiting the arrival of their CEO, Emily. She was a force to be reckoned with - brilliant, decisive, and unyielding in her pursuit of success. As she entered the room, heads turned, and the chatter subsided. Iris took her seat at the head of the conference table, and with a quick nod, signaled for the meeting to begin. "Good morning, everyone," she began, her voice ringing out with confidence. "Today, I want to talk to you about our quarterly results." Iris went on to detail the company's financial performance over the past few months, highlighting the areas where they had excelled, and the areas where they needed improvement. Her speech was peppered with graphs, charts, and projections, all of which she explained with clarity and precision. But as she spoke, it became clear that Iris was not just talking about numbers and figures. She was talking about people. "We've made some tough decisions over the past few months," she said, he

( I hope you all remember chapter 47 , if now please check it out before reading this chapter.) Flashback Landon took a deep breath as he parked his car outside Crystal's mother's house. He had received a call from his wife's mother one day, and it turned out to be her. Landon's relationship with Crystal's mother had never really developed, and he felt uncomfortable facing her. He had a deep feeling of guilt in his heart, which prevented him from getting closer to her. On his wedding day, he had promised her to protect her daughter, but he did the total opposite. He didn't have the courage to face her." He got out of the car and walked up the front steps, his heart pounding in his chest. As he rang the doorbell, he tried to calm his nerves. The door opened, and Crystal's mother, Mrs. Mary, greeted him warmly. "Landon, it's good to see you," Mrs. mary said, smiling. "Thank you for inviting me, Mrs. mary," Landon replied, his voice shaking slightly. "Don't call me that, you are al

The sky is getting dark. The breeze is getting refreshing, Crystal sat up and rubbed her eyes, trying to clear the sleep from her head. As she looked around, her eyes landed on the clock. Its was 9 pm. she realized that she was in Landon's room. Memories of few hours came flooding back to her - she had gone out with landon to meet her mom and ended up falling asleep in Landon's car. She glanced out the window and saw that a storm was approaching. The wind had picked up, and the sky was darkening quickly. Crystal felt a sense of calm wash over her as she watched the storm draw nearer. She got up from the bed and walked over to the window, feeling the cool breeze on her face. Looking outside, watching as the clouds grew darker and more ominous. The wind picked up, blowing leaves and small branches around in the yard. Crystal smiled to herself, feeling a sense of exhilaration as she anticipated the storm's arrival. She loved the way the rain washed everything clean and the thunder an
