Chapter 77

Byung-ho should respect that, if she had chosen him instead of me, although it would hurt like hell, I would have let her go with her heart's desire, which is him, because to me her happiness matters first than my feelings for her.

If she will be happy with him then I will just have to live with that, but now she is happy with me and there is nothing anyone could do to change that.

I know it hurts but Byung-ho has to understand this and respect Ji-a's decision...

” I can't say if you have hurt him, the only person who has hurt him here is me, I have hurt him a lot, but if there is anything I know about my best friend Byung-ho, is that he is a good person and has a heart of gold. He might be hurting now but I am sure he will come through soon enough and everything will return back to how it was, the three of us being good friends. "

I said, trying to sound as optimistic as possible, anything that would get Ji-a more relaxed and remove that sadness I am seeing on her face.

Course I hate seeing her sad, I so much hate it!

“ Are you sure about that? Course I really do hate seeing him sad. "

She said, her sadness hurting my soul.

“ Yes I am, I am. " I said and pulled her in for a hug

“ Everything will be alright, you will see, the three of us will be okay. " I said, patting her head and I prayed and hoped my words would come true.

I really don't want to lose my childhood friend, who is my best friend but if I have to choose.

I will pick Ji-a over him.

“ He loves me, but I can never let you go, Lee Chun. If that makes me a bad person towards him, I am sorry but I don't think I can ever be good, cause I can't stop loving you Lee Chun, I can't. "

She said almost in tears and her words really touched my heart, and it only gave me more reasons to want to love and care for her more.

I didn't say a word, for some minutes I just remained in that position, hugging her tightly.

There is nothing to say for now, we only need each other's body and soul....

“ I will understand if you no longer feel like going out anymore today, after all that happened, it will be alright if you want to rest in your room. I will pick another convenient time for us to go out as a couple. "

I said, but I wasn't really happy about it. I really wanted to spend some time alone with Ji-a and have fun.

“ No!.. I don't want to rest, I really want to go out with you. Please still take me out. "

She said, and I smiled as she said exactly what I wanted to hear.

“ Are you sure you still want to go out with me? "

I asked to confirm.

“ Yes. "

She replied with a nod of the head, and I planted a kiss on her forehead.

“ Alright, let's get going. "

I said, holding her hand and that smile I love so much returned back to her face.

I wish she could always be smiling. I can't get tired of seeing her smile. I can't!

“ Yeppie! "

She cried out joyfully, giving me that sweetness in my heart as a happy smile appeared on my face....

Walking out of the building, but still in the compound.

“ Wait here, let me get the driver. "

I said to her and she had that confused face.

“ Ain't you the one driving? "

“ Well, I wanted to be the one to drive us before, but I have changed my mind " I said and I could see she became more confused.

“ Why? "

She asked and I drew nearer to her hands on her waist.

“ Course I won't be able to concentrate on the road with you looking this beautiful, I will be so tempted to give your sweet lips a kiss and that would be sweet but dangerous as we could get hit by a moving truck. There is no way I can kiss you again if I am inside the grave right? Or maybe I can. "

I said adding a little bit of humor in my tone.

She was blushing and laughing “ You really silly. "

She said hitting my arm softly

“ But do go get the driver, I don't want to land in the hospital again because you choose to kiss me while driving. " She said and I chuckled.

“ Will be right back. " I said, stealing a kiss from her lips before leaving to get one of the drivers....

Location: Unknown.

The Boss

I was busy relaxing my head, as I lay half naked, with only my shorts on in the portable bed outside the open balcony that has an elevated swimming pool on it.

I was lying down, with my back and head slightly tilted upwards, and a glass of whiskey in one of my hands while an open magazine was in the other hand.

It is actually an erotic magazine, with lots of pictures of half naked girls and also completely naked girls.

Quite an interesting view, I was enjoying myself when...

“ Boss, I just received the call, they are in Itaewon. "

One of my men, Crusher by name, came reporting.

Sitting upright on the bed “ Good, very good. Then go, go fetch does three idiots from the pit and bring them to me, it's time for them to finish their job. " I instructed.

“ Alright boss, right away. "

He said then quickly left, to do what I had commanded.

I dropped the magazine but continued sipping from my glass of whiskey, and also enjoying the refreshingly natural air from the surroundings.

“ Ahh.. life is sweet. "

_________

Minutes later I was now seated with an expansive robe covering my nakedness.

Three men were standing in front of me, two of them were covered in bandages as they had lots of cuts and wounds on them, while the third was looking like a normal human but the three of them are big time idiots.

They are actually my men, the most useless of my men, they couldn't even get a simple job done and because of their failure I lost a whole lot of money and one thing I don't joke with is money.

“ So I have decided to give you fools another chance to redeem yourselves. You guys have to get the target this time and the client doesn't want her captured, she wants her dead. This is an assassination mission. Are you boys up for the task? "

“ Yes boss! "

The three of the choruses.

“ You can count on us boss, she is as good as dead boss, we won't fail you this time around. "

The one who has no bandage amongst them said.

“ You better don't, unless your dead bodies will be used to replace her's instead. "

I said sternly....

Location: Seoul Tower.

Ji-a's POV

“ There you go,. watch your steps, " Lee Chun said helping me out of the Range Rover sport.

“ Thank yo_ " I was about to thank him when I caught sight of the building.

“ Wow! "

I exclaimed in amazement at the sight of the towel.

It is so large and high, damn it's too tall!

“ Wait until you see the view from up the lower you are going to love it. "

He said.

Are we seriously going to the top of this building???

Jeez I think I am about to pass out, like faint.

I don't do too well in height. Yeah I am kinda scared of high places...but I guess it will be fun with Lee Chun with me. I feel safe around him.

“ Okay but always hold on to my hands " I said and he smiled.

” I am never letting go of you MINE. " he said...

★

To get to the top of the tower, I and Lee Chun had to ride a gondola ( cable car )

Jeez scary!

The towel is actually located in a mountainous region that's why it needs a gondola for easy access to the tower.

In case you are wondering what a gondola is, I will tell you.

In simple terms, it's a floating bus in the sky, yup! You heard that right, a bus floating in the sky.

Well it's actually not floating, it's been held and propelled by strong cables hung high above the ground and it's completely safe, but it's quite scary to me course the floor of the gondola we were riding was made up of transparent material, like glass so I am seeing the ground from the high height I was.

Jeez, it felt like I could fall through the floor, so scary.

I was hugging Lee Chun tightly with my eyes closed throughout the ride to the tower.

“ Are you scared? "

Lee Chun had asked at one point when he noticed my eyes were closed.

I shook my head in disagreement, even though I was really scared.

He chuckled slightly “ Really? You ain't scared? "

He asked and I nodded.

“ Then open your eyes then, since you ain't scared. "

He said and I held him even more tightly.

“ No. "

I said with a shake of the head, and he chuckled again.
