Jane's POV:-

"I'll pretend that I didn't see anything," Mrs Yoon chuckled as my face has a pink tint while I lowered my lashes.

"It's not as you're thinking---," I tried to clarify but she patted my head. "You don't have to explain," she whispered.

"Namjoon's Dad is here?" I asked as she explained that Mr Kim will be arriving and Seokjin sir had called and that's the reason Namjoon had to leave.

I couldn't stop myself from asking Mrs Yoon, "Why does Namjoon hate Min-Ji?"

She smiled and replied, "It's not Min-Ji who he hates. Min-Ji's mother is trying to seduce Mr Kim for money. That's the reason Namjoon doesn't like them. Mrs Park was the reason Namjoon's mom doubted on his Dad. "

Mrs Yoon also told me about Mrs Park sending a servant behind us to give them information about my mom so that she could humiliate me later. Min-Ji isn't supposed to be blamed.

I thanked Mrs Yoon and went straight to Min-Ji's room. She was busy recording a makeup tutorial. I knocked on the door, she furrowed her brows and marched towards me.

"What do you want?" She asked in a cold tone. "Can we talk?" I asked politely and as I'd assumed, she wasn't harsh, she let me in.

"Can I help you with your makeup?" I asked as she asked me if I even had any knowledge about all that.

"I worked in a bar, I helped girls get ready there. Trust me, I am good at it," I said as she handed me the palette of eye shadow which was filled with dark colours.

I asked her to remove whatever she had applied, straightened her hair and started to apply light makeup that would fit her skin tone well.

"You're excellent," she complimented smiling.

She looked pretty in the blue dress that I got her from my closet. She took a thousand photos and asked me if she could tag me in her pictures.

"Namjoon likes you for a reason. I have been so cruel to you while you never even talked back. I'm sorry," she said lowering her lashes. Her words felt genuine. She was even a year younger to me.

"Namjoon doesn't like me and I know that. He never mingled up with girls much even in school. I just wanted to be famous, that's the only reason I wanted to be his friend, feature him in one of my videos," she said as I chuckled.

I can't imagine Namjoon being in a makeup tutorial.

"Do you want to get married to him?" I asked as she lowered her eyes and replied, "Though I would get famous, have many followers but I would never feel loved with him. I would never get his attention because even after being known to each other for so long, we are still strangers."

She was alone, broke and had nobody to listen to her.

"My mom has a complicated situation with his father and that's the main reason he never wanted to see me besides, I want to marry someone who'd be fond of me," she said as I smiled at her.

"Of course, you'll get someone who'll love you," I said as she stood up and spun like a little school girl. She was in love with the dress and the makeover that I gave her.

"I've never had good friends, I have always been alone and I craved love which I never got. Forcing myself to marry Namjoon is wrong but I just did it for mom. No matter she's wrong but she's my mother," she said which made me realize how much I miss my mother.

"Are you free tonight?" I asked planning to take her to Trivia and make her meet Troye. She excitedly nodded and hugged me since she had never been to a club.

"Why are you being so good to me?" She asked.

"Hate cannot be dissolved by hate, it needs that little spice of love to get things balanced and that's what I'm doing."

She smiled, "Your words are soothing. If you don't mind, can I call you unnie?"

(Unnie means elder sister)

"Of course," I said as she smiled. If Mrs Yoon didn't tell me about her, I would always think she's cruel while she was just someone who didn't have the right people to be with.

I left her room and was about to get ready to go to Trivia when I saw Mr Kim talking to Mrs Yoon near the room I stay in.

I bowed as he passed a warm smile. Namjoon doesn't share a good relation with him but he seems sweet.

"Are you the girl Namjoon wants me to meet?" He asked as I was clueless about his question. Mrs Yoon stepped forward introducing us to each other.

He still kept looking at me with his eyes filled with love and whispered, "How did you meet my son?"

I lowered my lashes thinking hard. We met at conditions we should have never but I had to answer something.

I didn't lie and answered, "I worked as a waitress in Trivia club. He then gave me the job of his assistant."

"I'm glad you didn't lie," he said as I widened my eyes.

He asked me to stay and have tea with him. He wanted to discuss something. I agreed as my head was filled with questions thinking if he comes to know about my family status, he might throw me out.

I sat on the dining table as his father sat on the opposite side. "How well do you know my son?" He asked sipping on his cup of tea.

I was getting nervous, I had no answers. I met him six months ago, how would I be able to answer his questions with him not being by my side?

My actions were growing formal as every question was making me anxious. I didn't want to screw anything up for Namjoon. Though Min-Ji doesn't want to marry him, he should deal with his Dad on his own.

I couldn't lie to him. He continued to ask me questions like how much did I care for his son and how should he believe that I'm the best choice Namjoon can have.

He might hate me for the truth but he deserves to know whatever he's asking for.

I bit my lip and forced a smile on my face. Taking a deep breath, my gaze matched with Mrs Yoon who smiled giving me a slight nod.

"I met Namjoon under situations I never thought I would. He gave me a job but then," I stopped pausing since I didn't know how I could explain things to him.

Mr Kim had his eyes dimmed and his aura made me feel comfortable. I continued, "I got attracted to him which led to misunderstandings and I left the company. We crossed paths again when my mom fell sick and Namjoon helped me financially. I am thankful for it."

"That doesn't justify what I asked you, dear. I want to know what is the relation between you and my son?" My heart picked up its pace.

Flashbacks clouded my mind from the time he forcefully kissed me to the time we got intimate and in the morning when he indirectly apologized me and cleared that he wanted me to stay with him.

"I don't know sir. We aren't friends, we aren't lovers and I guess, you should ask Namjoon about this," I clarified not wanting to entangle into the topic much.

He nodded and I quickly left to get ready and take Min-Ji to Trivia. I might have messed up things for Namjoon but it doesn't matter anymore since his problem is already solved.

Namjoon's POV:-

It was quarter past nine, I reached home. I had to explain to Dad about my relation with Jane and then, I would leave the house taking her back to my place.

From the day my mom died, our relationship has been messed. I never spoke to him much but I had to answer whatever he'd ask. No matter what, he is my father. Though my love for him wavered my respect never did.

"How are you, my son?" He greeted as I bowed formally. We haven't spoken since long and therefore, it was going to be difficult for me.

"Dad I'll make you meet Jane and then, we'll be leaving," I said making it clear that I didn't want to stay in his house with Min-Ji's mom around him.

I went to our room but she wasn't there. Mrs Yoon informed that she had to go to Trivia.

"Sorry Dad, she'll be back in a while. I'll make you meet her then," I said and turned to get back to my room when his voice made me halt.

"I met her," he said.

I turned as he ordered me to sit beside him. I got a little awkward since after mom left, I've always blamed him and never spoke much to him.

"Hate cannot be dissolved by hate, it needs that little spice of love to get things balanced," he said and I turned my gaze to him.

"I know you accuse me of not taking care of mom but I loved her more than you could ever imagine," he said which made me lower my gaze as tears pooled in my eyes.

"I know I made a mistake but can you forgive me for once?" He asked as his voice cracked. I didn't know how to react, I stood up and was about to leave.

"Your girl didn't lie even once," he said as I paused.

"She told me how complicated it's between the both of you but you know what, the woman is unbelievable. Just don't let her go," he said as I widened my eyes.

He spoke to her just once and this is the impact.

"Never," I replied in almost a whisper and left. According to Mrs Yoon, Jane is with Min-Ji and I don't trust her much.

I quickly sat in my car speeding it to Trivia.

-

I got inside from the back door. The restroom in the lounge was decorated extremely beautiful with humongous dressing tables around. The interior has got way better than before.

Zee was busy talking to a girl wearing a blue dress. The girl looked very much similar to Min-Ji but she always had her dark makeup.

I started to look around and a few steps away from Zee stood Jane with a smile plastered on her face as Troye stood next to her.

They were looking at Zee who was busy flirting with the girl. I went closer and stood just a step far from them.

"You're a love guru Jane, the girl looks good too. How did you do the makeover and how did Min-Ji start liking you?" I heard Troye yell because of the music.

"Hate cannot be dissolved by hate, it needs that little spice of love to get things balanced and that's what I did," she said and started to sway her body along with the music.

Dad said the exact words.

I continued to listen as she whined like a kid, "They look cute together. I want a boyfriend too."

That's when I realized Zee was flirting with Min-Ji and she waved at Jane.

Troye chuckled as he turned to serve drinks and his eyes met mine. Jane's back was facing us as Troye whispered, "Take care of your little girl who's complaining about being single."

I smiled and went close to her while she kept on saying, "I wish I meet Runch soon, I want to date and kiss and I---," she froze as her gaze collided with mine.

She does have wild fantasies with me.
