Chapter 565 - Do you know that man? (2/2)
”Mika Long,” Mika introduced herself but not Ryn. She did not recognize him even though he was one of the most popular handsome bachelors in the country. Why should she care when her baby Jason and Jeremy were among the top three? Jeremy even held the number one most eligible bachelor in the whole country while Jason used to be number two. Now, with Jason belonging to her completely, his name was taken down by the Gossippy Society and the one below him moved to take his place. She had no idea who but was happy and excited at the thought that soon enough Jeremy's name would be taken down as well once Ryn joined their family officially through marriage.
K shook her hand politely and then, once the handshake ended, he looked at Ryn expectedly.
Ryn put down the plate she was holding. It was already clean from any sort of food. She was actually chewing the last portion of sandwiches. She was getting full but it was not yet enough. She needed another plate of food before she could finally say she was full and satisfied.
She finally looked at the man. She realized that the man was the one who was blocking her way when she was taking her food. She narrowed her eyes suspiciously.
”K Lee,” he introduced himself again after he coughed and cleared his throat again. The woman, when she was trying not to look shy by pretending to look angry, when she was narrowing her eyes, looked so beautiful. She did not look dangerous at all.
”Catherine,” despite telling him her full name, not the nickname those closes to her used to call her, she did not bother telling him her surname.
”Catherine. Beautiful name, just like the owner of the name,” he said with a wink. Then, he lowered his head while taking her right hand without warning.
Mika's eyes widened to see the man actually kiss the back of Ryn's hand. She blinked her eyes, thinking she was just hallucinating. But when she opened her eyes wider, she saw the shock in Ryn's eyes as well.
Ryn was shocked as well. Who wasn't? But she managed not to scream because she did not want to attract the others from looking at this embarrassing moment. She gritted her teeth, trying to hold the temper in check.
Once K lifted his head and looked at her with triumph, he did not see any shyness or obsession from her face. His face started to change slightly as he tried to understand this weird reaction.
”Excuse us,” Ryn said coldly as she pulled Mika away. She did not want to stay here any longer. She was so embarrassed with this crazy man. She would rather pay back the money Mika spent for today's event rather than deal with this crazy man.
Her grip was so strong because of the anger, it hurt Mika. When she realized it, she quickly released her hand and apologized to Mika.
”It's okay,” Mika was not angry because she knew Ryn did not realize what she had just done.
”Anyway...” she paused because they already reached the car. She unlocked it and went into the driver seat. She would not let Ryn drive the car during her emotional state right now.
”What?”
”Do you know that man?” Mika asked. It was funny when she thought about it again. That man was clearly aiming for Ryn. Unfortunately, Ryn already belonged to someone else. Her own big brother.
No one else could be better than her stupid big brother so Ryn's only choice was him.
”I don't know him. He must be drunk and thought I was someone he knew,” Ryn replied between her gritted teeth. She was still trying to control her temper. Right now, she was rubbing the wet tissue at the spot where his cold lips touched. So disgusting!
How she wished she remembered to go to the bathroom first to wash this. Despite the wet tissue that could wipe away the disgusting saliva he transferred during that crazy moment, she still felt dirty.
”That crazy man. How I wished I could kill him,” Ryn muttered. She rubbed the back of her hand harder until it turned red. Even then, she still felt it dirty.
”Relax. Stop rubbing your hand or you will wound it,” Mika coaxed. She could see the redness clear from where she was. How much strength does Ryn use to rub the tissue? Mika shivered uncontrollably.. She would not want to be the receiver when Ryn lost her temper.
