Jennie suppressed a smile as she attempted to shift to the window seat while listening to the song again, but at a lower volume than before. Jennie got off the bus a few minutes later and walked to one of the food stalls near the road. As Jennie's footsteps made their way inside, the bell above the door rang. "Oh, you've come," a woman who was busy cooking said. With a slightly sluggish face, Jennie approached the woman and sat in one of the chairs near where she was cooking. “Why does your face look like that? Did you fight with your parents again?” the woman inquired before returning to her cooking. "Yeah, that's how it is," Jennie said after taking a deep breath. They still forced me to stop singing and join the company up until now." The lady smiled. Her name is Hwang Alice. Alice has been Jennie's best friend since they were in junior high school. As a good friend of Jennie, Alice knows all the problems she is facing in her life. Alice knows of how Jennie met Adam
"Aren't you going with Noah?" As Aaron and Irene entered the elevator, Aaron inquired.Irene turned around for a moment before pressing the number 9 on the elevator button. "Not. I didn't want to feel like an abandoned person when I got home, so I decided to bring my own car.""Is your relationship still not okay?" Aaron asked again."I don't think it'll ever be okay." When they arrived on the 9th floor, the elevator doors reopened. Aaron and Irene both exited the elevator.Her steps continued until she entered the room. Irene attempted to sit up by placing her bag on the table. Her gaze was drawn to the flower vase, which held a few roses that Noah had given her."If you truly love me, just tell me. Why are you so ashamed to admit it? What a man."With an irritated face, Irene opened her laptop, to start her work. A few moments later, Irene yawned in her hectic schedule; she was tired from helping Noah put out the fire and make him dinner the night before.Irene's hands began to move
Irene had completely forgotten how to breathe. She never expected Noah to take her out to lunch amid their hectic schedules."You can't? Okay." When Noah didn't get a response from Irene, he said it again."Ah, no. I can. By the way, where are we going for lunch?" Irene asked quickly."Just wait. I'll pick you up later." Noah stated it once more.The conversation was over. Irene continued to prance in her sitting position with a big smile. She sighed and began to imagine his romantic lunch with Noah."The break time is still quite long," Irene said as she looked at the clock on the wall. "Let's focus, Irene; only then you will feel true happiness!" Irene said as she tried to refocus her attention on her work.***It doesn’t feel like time is so fast. Employees began to rise from their seats and walk towards the canteen. Even so, Irene rose from her seat and rushed out of the company building.Aaron noticed Irene walking quickly while carrying her bag and wondered, "Where is she going?
Lunchtime is almost over. Noah and Irene are now on their way to Irene Company."Sometimes I wonder why they look so happy when we are feeling tortured," Noah stated.Irene turned her head confusedly, "What do you mean?""Our parents are always happy because they were successful in marrying the two of us. Did they ever imagine that this matchmaking would torture you and me?" Noah explained."I don't know, maybe they used to be like us. So they know we'll be fine, just like their household.""You mean your parents and mine used to get married because they were set up? Finally, they fell in love and were together until this very moment?"Irene nodded slowly, "It's possible, right?"Noah laughed when he heard those words. "What kind of bullshit? That is the most ridiculous sentence I've ever heard in my entire life."Irene frowned as she turned to face Noah, who was still focused on driving "Just so you know, you and I are not the only ones who got married as a result of an arranged marr
"Oh really? Where did she go?” Irene asked.Hara shrugged, "I don't know, maybe go to practice."Irene slowly nodded and tried to eat her breakfast. After she finished, she went upstairs to her room while waiting for Jennie."Should I call Jennie to tell her if I'm waiting for her at home?" Irene inquired, looking at her cellphone screen while lying on the bed. "Ah no. Make it a surprise for her." She then stated.Irene turned her lying position to face the side. Her gaze was drawn to a photo frame in which she and Jennie were smiling and hugging each other's shoulders.Irene began to rise from her lying position and then shifted into a sitting position, her hands moving to take the photo frame."Jennie was so adorable with her innocent smile at the time." With a smile, Irene said. But then Irene took a breath deeply, "Seeing this photo makes me miss her. I don't know since when I haven't seen the smile on Jennie's face again."Irene moved her hand to open a drawer in a small cupboard
When Noah noticed Irene was silent, he grabbed the paper from her grasp and said, "I warned you not to touch my things.""W-why are you still keeping it?" Irene, who couldn't believe it, asked quietly. She couldn't believe Noah kept the paper she gave when they were both in high school.Irene, who had long admired Noah, had deliberately practiced painting Noah's face on a piece of paper. Irene managed to paint it well even though it wasn't perfect.However, due to Noah's indifferent personality, Irene did not dare to give the paper directly. As a result, Irene placed the painting paper in Noah's locker without knowing him.When promoted to the next grade, Irene's gaze remained fixed on Noah, who stepped forward while carrying a piece of paper that he secretly placed in Noah's locker.But Irene noticed Noah and Suzy exchanging glances and smiling at each other at the time. A few days later, their school was rocked by the news that Noah and Suzy were dating.From the time Noah received
Aaron immediately embraced Irene and carried her into the car. Likewise, Leo brought his wife and led her to the car.They took separate paths. Aaron directed Irene back to her apartment while Leo and Crystal went home. Irene was delirious halfway through, still having trouble opening her eyes."Can we go to the park for a little while?" Irene inquired.Aaron, who had focused on driving, began to turn to check on Irene to see if she was delirious.Feeling that Aaron didn't answer his words, Irene's hand began to move to touch Aaron's hand, which was in gear."Aaron, let's go to the Park. I don't want Noah to see me come home drunk like this," Irene said again.Aaron turned to Irene, "You'll be home late at night if you take the time to go to the Park first.""That's okay." Irene sighed.Aaron remained silent. His car was currently driving towards a park near the restaurant they had previously visited.They both arrived about 5 minutes later. Aaron came to a halt and turned to face Ire
Aaron had a crush on Irene long before she had a crush on Noah. His feelings for Irene haven't changed up until now.Noah laughed, “What a sad love story. So you've been hiding feelings for a woman who has never loved you all this time? Wow, if only Irene knew how much you love her.""If only Irene's parents knew how much Irene was suffering from living with her husband." Aaron said, "You better go because I'll be the one to take Irene home." continued Aaron.After stepping while leading Irene, Noah grabbed Aaron's arm to stop him.“There's no need to bother. Her husband is already here, so let her go home with him."Aaron stepped back, ignoring Noah's words. But Noah stopped him once more. Noah immediately drew Irene's hand into his embrace. Aaron, not wanting to lose, took Irene back into his arms.Irene, who had been unconscious, finally opened her eyes after feeling swayed here and there as Noah and Aaron fought over her.Irene, who was half-drunk, was surprised to see Noah and Aa
