As she open her eyes, a wooden table and tatami covered walls came into her view. She immediately realized that she was still inside the private room.
She slowly looked up, then she saw Ian looking adoringly down at her.
"You're awake?"
With a smile he asked her, his voice was filled with mirth.
Tia immediately sat up, she almost hit Ian's face, if not for his quick reflex, he's sure he was suffering an injury right now.
"Im sorry CEO Lee."
Tia apologized, bowing her head down, she looked like a servant who had offended her master.
"Its alright."
"IIIf.... you'll excuse me, im going to the powder room."
"sure go, ahead."
Then Tia stood up, her head still lowered she immediately went out of the room. Ian looked at her retreating figure and a wide smile was plastered on his face. He then grabbed a tissue at the table and wiped his shorts.
Tia looked at the mirror, her face was flushed from embarrassment. Then she notice something glistening in the corner of her mouth. She touched it, and felt that it's wet.
'Holy shit, did I just drool??????'
Then she remembered that she was sleeping and using his lap as a pillow. Her face paled instantly.
'Fuck im doomed!!!'
She washed her face, grabbed a couple of tissue then wiped away the excess water. She walked back and forth at the restroom, She was deliberating how to show her face to him again.
'Right, I'll just act like nothing happened.'
And as if a light bulb suddenly lit up. She had decided to use that fail proof plan.
Tia went back to the private room but she was surprise to only see a young waitress arranging the seat pillows.
'Did I went to the wrong room?'
Detecting Tia's presence, the waitress looked at her. Then she handed her her leather jacket and phone and a black credit card. Then sweetly spoke.
"Miss, here are your things."
Noticing the black card, she extended her arm aiming to return it to the waitress.
"It's not mine."
"Oh, it's your husband's."
The waitress said. She had forgotten to return it to Ian earlier. Seeing his intimate actions towards this young lady earlier she assumed that they are husband and wife.
"oh, he's not my.."
She was about to correct the waitress when her phone suddenly rang.. She choked back on her words then She answered her phone immediately.
"CEO Lee."
"Ms. Kim, Im sorry I have to leave. I need to attend an urgent meeting."
Ian said, his voice was stern but there's a trace of warmth in it.
"It's alright, thank you for the treat, and uhm I have your card here."
"Oh, keep it for me, okay?"
"..."
Without waiting for her reply, he immediately hang up the phone.
'Why does he always do that?'
Infuriated, she head out of the resto.
