Kim who has been kissed by Alexander hurried inside the room and locked herself. A small smile appeared on her lips as she touched her cheek which had turned red from the kiss.
As she opened her eyes, she nearly jumped seeing him on her bed. One leg was closed after the other and she wondered how he got inside the room. He was outside earlier and she locked the door against him.
So how did he get here?
But seeing him here brought a strange feeling in her. She was nervous on one hand that he had seen her flushed face. While on the other hand she was happy that he was here.
"What are you doing here?" Kim asked, sweat forming on her forehead. She felt the sudden urge to run her fingers through his hair and mess it up.
"Do you like the kiss?" He dropped the book in his hand and stood up walking towards Kim.
"The….?"
"Kiss." He noticed the way she was breathing faster than usual. He brought his hand up to her face tucking the few strand's of hair behind her ear. His hand caressed her red cheek which was burning with embarrassment.
"Yes." Kim nodded her head slowly with her eyes closed.
"Then we should do it again." He leaned closer and crashed his lips on hers. Her hands moved to his hair ruffling it.
Kim could hear her name being called.
"Kim." She stiffened trying to look for who was calling her name but Alexander's hand made it hard for her not to move. He held her in place.
"Kim."
Alexander scowled in annoyance when he saw how she was making his hair messy. Her lips was pouted and she looked as if she was kissing someone.
"Wakeup you're messing my hair up!" The loud voice woke Kim from sleep with a scream.
Her eyes slowly opened full of exhaustion. She squinted her eyes and saw a blurry vision of Alexander sitting close to her.
With lightening speed, Kim ran out of bed. The memory of the dream came flooding inside her head and her face reddened with embarrassment.
What kind of stupid dream was that? Kim asked in her mind. She brought her hand to her mouth and wiped it off.
"What?" Alexander raised a brow staring at her face. "You look red and your lips are pouted. Did someone kissed you in your dream?"
"Why will….?" She brought her hand up again and wiped her wet lips.
"I smell lie in your voice." Alexander slowly stood up and walked closer. Kim was experiencing a sense of Déjà vu. It was like as if what happened in her dream was beginning to come to pass with him
"There is an Halloween party coming up for the upper class of this country. What costume would you be wearing?" He asked.
Kim was glad that he had diverted the conversation. "I don't go for Halloween party." She replied quickly.
"I have recommendations for you. How about you dress like a witch?"
"Why will I dress like a witch for Halloween?" She questioned.
"Because you always torment me." He walked out of the room with a smile.
"Odd man. I think you need a therapy session." Kim lazily pulled herself to the bathroom.
…..
In an enormous Mansion, an elderly man I'm his late fifties sat down opposite his daughter. The room was quiet except for the occasional clicking of the clock.
Olivia heaved a long sigh while her eyes moved to the bodyguards guiding the house.
She slowly looked down at her shoes wondering why her father called for her this morning.
"Olive I'm very disappointed in you. If not that my sources reported to me what you're going through in that house I would have thought you were doing fine." She could hear the anger in her father's voice.
"Just one week and I promise Alexander will fall in love with me." Her hands had turned clammy.
"Stupid girl!" She heard her mother's voice. "I trained you for years not to act weak. How would you let a girl your age take your future husband away from your? Ohh… you think I will wait for the stupid plan you have in mind?"
Olivia let out a tired sigh and turned to her mother who had sat down beside her. "Mother he's a very busy man but—"
"I will go there next week and make sure everything is cleared." Her mother, Veronica chimed.
Olivia watched as her parents walked upstairs and her face turned red in anger. It was that bitch fault. She came from nowhere and snatched everything from her.
She would need to do something and get rid of Kim first. She didn't want her mother to embarrass her in Alexander's present.
She slowly drank the coffee while thinking of a good plan before her mother goes to Alexander and do something stupid.
…..
Days later..
Kim who had just finished breakfast with Alexander stood up when she heard her name being called. "I have work for you."
Turning her head, she gave him a questioning look.
"I need you to survey the border for me. My men will take you there and tell you what to do." Alexander took one last sip of the coffee and dropped it down. The maid stepped forward and adjusted his suit.
"You speak like I am going to go," Kim said.
"You don't have an option…."He paused and listened to yesterday's report carefully.
"What's your offer?" Kim asked.
"I will hire and pay you if you work with me." Alexander watched as her lips pulled into a smile.
"How much?" She asked curiously.
"Half a million."
"So cheap." She commented.
"Why do you say so?"
"I will be busy with my phone today so if you want me to work for you, raise the price." Her words made him raise a brow. She had planned on going to the base to visit Blue herself. She had tried calling her the past few days but her phone was switched off.
"One million then."
Kim raised her face up while thinking of the price over and over if it's good.
"Two million is my final price." Alexander smiled when he saw her behavior. Turning to Michael, he said. "Take the details of her account and wire the money there."
Kim watched as the man stepped forward with a booklet in his hand. "And who said I agreed for that amount?"
"That is my final offer. Write down everything and the money would be sent to you immediately." Kim collected the pen from Michael and wrote down the details of her account.
After writing it down, she trailed behind Alexander outside the house. She watched as different men came to his side with different bills to sign.
Afterwards, they entered different cars and went to their separate directions. But Kim do not know what awaits her in the border.
