Chased By The CEO

A sigh of relief escaped from her mouth while she leaned back against the chair. The corner of her red lips was curled up to a smile as she lifted up her glass of wine and took a sip out of it elegantly. She looked as if she was finally free. After all, all the burdens were lifted off of her shoulder, and for the first time in years, she felt like this. There was nothing suffocating anymore. Finally, satisfaction came to her, and there was nothing left for her to regret. Everything ended well. Even if she had to die at this moment, she wouldn't be hating it for she, Min Yura, had achieved everything in life. Right now, she could relate to a caged bird who had been set free after years. Softly she placed her glass on the table, and her gaze moved to the man before her. His eyes stared at her intensely. As expected, she wasn't able to read

Her words caused him to start laughing instantly. It was humourless. Nonetheless, it had no effect on Yura's mood. "You are here to see me? Are you planning to mock and laugh at my current state? You must be feeling quite smug to see me this way, right? After all, you managed to win at the end," he said. "You are right," she responded, "I did win, but I don't feel smug nor do I feel the need to mock at you. I don't even feel pity towards you. My emotions towards you are quite complicated, but I don't hate you. Actually, I am grateful. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be able to see the true faces of so many people.  So, thank you. What they did to me can't compare to what you did to me. In fact, you helped me to see the bigger picture," she honestly confessed. A look of disbelief was present in his eyes, and she knew that it was reasonable for him to feel this away about her

Two of them were inside Ryu Yejoon's house. While Yura was seated on the chair, Yejoon came out with the dishes he prepared. She stared while he arranged the table. After that, he pulled the chair in front of her in order to sit down.  "Thank you for the meal," she politely said before starting to eat. While she was about to pick up the fork, he voiced out, "Did you really mean those words from the other day?" The slight fear in his tone was noticed by her, and that was how she even felt when making this decision. The feelings he had towards her was something she could relate to well enough. "Yeah," she said, "I know that this is difficult on both of us, but this needs to be done." "Why?" he questioned— desperation present in his tone. "I believed you when you said that you don't want anything to do with the past, but you visited Youngjae and even

Watching Youngjae pass through the empty corridor caused to stand in front of him and block his way.  These days, there were barely opportunities for them to meet alone, and he avoided any sort of contact with her. Finally Yura was able to spot him and stop him in his steps. Seeing how the hallway was completely empty caused relief to spread through her. She did not want anyone to interfere right now. His hands were tucked into his pocket while he raised his head to look at her. There were no emotions present in his eyes, and over this period of two weeks, it had become a norm for him to stare with those eyes at her. She couldn't put into words how much ache that brought to her. "Youngjae, why are you doing? What's happening between the both of us? Is it really over? Did you truly throw all of it back?" she questioned— desperation present in her tone. 

With a cheerful mood, Yura started to pack the luggages. Finally, they have settled to on the trip, and she was quite excited about it. After all, this was her first time experiencing something like this. "Are you really fine with leaving that puppy at here?" Mirae questioned. Placing her clothes inside the luggage, she raised one of her eyebrows while she turned back to Mirae, questioning what he was trying to imply. "Don't try to act oblivious. You know who I am talking about. I am afraid that man will get a panic attack.  Did you see the amount of times he called and texted you? He even started to bother me right now. What have you done to the Ryu Yejoon?" Taking in a deep breath, Yura ran her hand through her hair and voiced out, "Don't worry! I have gotten it all under my control.  He might act like that in the beginning, but after a period of
