Akwasi who was lost in thought snapped back to earth when he heard Seungjo asking if they had had dinner. Even though Vincent said they had already eaten but Seungjo insisted if he was actually satisfied which made Vincent laughed so hard Akwasi rolled his eyes.
Is he the only one who feels something was really wrong with Seungjo but what can he do, he doesn't have anything to verify this feelings he kept having about Seungjo. Akwasi could no longer tolerate this scene spoke up "our Seungjo, one and only savior of our life, don't worry about this guy here" said Akwasi as placed his right hand on Vincent's shoulder "believe me, he is a tough guy and can withstand anything that life throws at him. Well except Jae…mm mmm mmm."
The last word was said with Vincent covering his mouth with his hand preventing him from spilling the beans to the entire world. He came here for a purpose and wouldn't want anyone getting to know the main reason why he came to this country. He believed it's the only way to protect his love.
Seungjo who was curios, "....."
"Come on what was that…" Vincent's phone rang interrupting Akwasi tantrums he was about to make making his words got stuck in his throat. Vincent bright smile as he saw the caller ID made Seungjo curios as he stretched out his neck to take a peek. But before he could see the name of the person, Vincent placed the phone at his ear as he brightly called out dad.
Akwasi immediately moved closer to listen in on the conversation which he was pulled back with Vincent's finger on his forehead. He pouted his lips like a kid but Vincent paid no attention to such thing. Only one person can act cute in front of him and he will succumb.
"Dad I'm having fun and resting a lot" replied Vincent to his father's question. They talked for at least two minutes before the call ended which he turned to Akwasi as he let out a laugh. This laugh of his made Akwasi felt some kind of joy "why don't you tell your father you are here for pleasure and also work" he said as he scratched the side of his neck.
Akwasi was about to walk into the apartment when he remembered, "ha, you are meeting him tomorrow right? Even though it's a business meeting but I bet you are nervous as hell. You are probably thinking on how you are going to act, should you smile at him or should I maintain my business face or should you just hug him."
Vincent, "….."
"Are you thinking of what to do when you meet your girlfriend when we go back home?" asked Vincent as he shook his head. Its good Akwasi followed him or else his days would have been boring. "I know you are thinking of what I just said….maybe."
Seungjo said the last part as they both turned to him. With the gazes thrown at him, he felt a shiver down his spine and felt the need to speak up faster. "Why don't you rest for a few days more before you start with this business of yours? I don't know much about businesses but I sure know its stressful to any human so maybe…."
"Seungjo, we've rest enough for the last few days. It's been four days now since we came which I believe we now have to focus on what we actually came here to do. I appreciate you helping me because all this while we would have to be in a hotel spending a lot of money. We owe you that but you shouldn't try to stop me" said Vincent as he turned to meet Akwasi's gaze with a scrunched up face.
He still can't fathom Vincent speaking Korean so fluently. But he feel left out whenever he is speaking with Seungjo. "I will not be surprise if you two sell me one day while I'm standing right beside you two. Never mind because this won't stop me from enjoying this vacation."
Seungjo watched while they entered the apartment with the security guard greeting them but he still stood there motionless. Akwasi who realized Seungjo wasn't following them to the room turned only to see him still standing there. "Aren't you coming?" asked Akwasi grasping Vincent's attention making him turned to Seungjo;s direction with expectant look.
Seungjo smiled as he said "I just remembered I have something to do. I will be back soon." As he said this he turned to go when Vincent spoke, "but isn't it late? Can't it wait till tomorrow?" but Seungjo shook his head in disapproval as he turned to leave.
Akwasi on the other side watched Seungjo's figure disappeared before he said "don't worry, he might be visiting his girlfriend. Who knows?" Vincent rolled his eyes before he turned to walk into the elevator leaving behind the inquisitive. "Hey wait for me…hold the elevator…..asshole" said Akwasi with the last word spoke out of anger since Vincent just left him there and had to wait for the elevator.

A few blocks away were five friends who was in a fancy restaurant talking non-stop with smiles plastered on their faces but deep down bore hatred for one another. That would be deep I must say but they were jealous of each other.
They all came from wealthy family but as you can see, one would be wealthier than the other which has resulted them into being jealous of each other. The one with her head held higher was the richest among them which has made her the most envious among them and doesn't listen to anyone among her friends. She wore a blue straight dress which sparkled brightening her complexion.
The dress itself is fitted at the waist, which accentuated her slender figure and flows elegantly around her knees. Her hair falling on her shoulders with a light make up bringing out her beauty. She wore a bright smile that could send men falling at her feet but she only had eyes for the heir of Osung Group.
The five friends had finished having their dinner when Hana watched her wrist and realized its getting late. With a smile she turned to them and said "I think I will be going now." As she said this, she tried to rise from her seat but before she could, the girl sitting beside her held her wrist preventing her from rising from her seat.
"Are you meeting him? You are definitely meeting him" asked the lady sitting in the middle of them. They both cheered happily in a teasing tone making Hana blush with her cheek as red as a tomato. "I guess now you are the happiest person on earth for getting the man of your dreams" said by Soo-Young, Hana best friend.
"Of course she is. She has been pursuing him since high school which has finally paid off" they all laughed at the same time. Hana smiled happily with her head lowered. "Let's get ready because our friend here would get married to the only heir of Osung Group….i can't wait" said the lady seated at the left side of Hana.
"Hey wait, but he has an older brother so he isn't the only heir and beside there are his cousin who can succeed him anytime" one interjected before she was pinched by Soo-Young. "shhh….but his older brother isn't active. No one has actually seen him for a very long time so it's like how I said it" she quickly explained but was it too late?
Hana who was listening to this argument had to cut it off before they start pulling each other hair off which wouldn't be the first time that had happened. She cleared her throat grasping their attention as they all turned to her direction, "I don't care if he doesn't end up taking over the company. I only want him and him alone so no need to argue over who the heir is. When we all thought he was dead for a year, I was so devastated and couldn't eat. That's when I realized I didn't like him because of how rich he was but him as the person."
"oooooooh" said the four ladies as they all placed their hand on their cheek at the same time. They all started making fun of their friend that they didn't realize someone standing in the dark was stalking them.
Across the restaurant was a man wearing a black T-shirt and a black jogger pants and a sneaker. He had a black face mask and a cap covering his eyes. He stared at the five girls sitting in the restaurant with smiles. But his focus was on Hana.
Hana was the reason why he came here. He couldn't help but praise her beauty but if he wants to have the person he likes, Hana is one of the golden tickets in getting the person he loves.
