Eunna

I still had 2 hours before the party at Mr Soo's house starts. I was still debating with myself on which dress I should wear tonight.

Taehyung told me to wear red. I have two red dresses here. But the problem was, they're too short. It would clearly reveal my thighs and I absolutely don't like it.

Sighing, I finally got an idea. I could wear a short to cover my thighs. By doing this, I can cover my upper thighs. At least.

I grabbed my dress and all the things I might need then started getting ready for the party.

I was stuck with the earrings that I had never wear before. I bought it last night and literally wasted my $50 just for this annoying stupid thing.

But after all, I needed to look good since I'll be sticking with Taehyung this whole night. He'll surely meet so many VIPs from different companies so I had to look good.

Getting distracted, I suddenly bumped into someone as I was walking without looking at where I was going. I backed off and looked up at the person.

"Sir? " I asked. I thought he was already inside with Mr Soo. I blinked and lowered my head. "I'm sorry, " I apologized for my reckless behavior.

"What's distracting you? You weren't focus when you walk. " he said then his eyes moved to the earrings I was wearing. I had never wear any accessories to work before. Maybe it made him felt a bit weird.

"New earrings? They're cool, " he smiled then looked back at me who was holding myself from frowning.

"Do they really look cool? Thank God. At least I didn't spend my $50 for nothing. " I blurted while flipping my hair to the back.

"You bought it for this party? " he laughed softly and waited for me to say something. "I want to look nice in front of the VIPs. First impression is crucial. " I told him.

"Oh, the party is about to start. Let's get in! " I gestured him. I didn't want to miss anything.

"Alright, chill a bit. " he shook his head and gave me his arm so that I could linked my arm with his. Making sure that I was ready, he turned to the front and both of us stepped into the big mansion.

We entered the mansion and was automatically greeted by the people. Majority of them were from our company. Meanwhile, the others were from Mr Soo's company.

"You're looking so good, Sir Kim. "

"Nice suit. "

"Good to meet you here, Sir Kim. "

All of them were busy greeting Taehyung, forgetting the fact that I'm actually exist. I mean, why would they approach me? I'm nobody to them. I was only a secretary of Kim Taehyung. I had no power, no fame and not interesting.

But it doesn't mean I'm nothing. I can be anything I want. They can't look down on me since I was the one who saved the company from investing into the wrong investment.

"Hey, Kim Taehyung. It's nice to meet you, " a man said while shaking his hand with Taehyung's. He seemed to be very happy seeing Taehyung.

"Long time no see. You look more handsome than the last time we met. " he grinned. Taehyung forced a smile to him and slightly rolled his eyes at the early 40s years old man.

"You look great too, Mr Han. " Taehyung smiled. I could tell he was hoping that Mr Han would leave as soon as possible. His fake smile couldn't stay any longer.

"Oh look. You bring a girl along. Who's this wonderful woman? Your secretary? " his eyes moved to look at me. From the way his were moving, I noticed he was trying to scan my body. I gulped, making Taehyung to notice that I wasn't comfortable around him.

He slightly pushed me behind him as he stood in front me. "I'm sorry Mr Han. But we need to meet Mr Soo now. Hope you can understand us. "

Without waiting for his response, Taehyung held my wrist and pulled me with him. "I'm sorry for that old flirty man. He used to work with our company. " he told me and sighed.

"That's fine. As long as he doesn't cross the line, then I'm okay. " I smiled to make him know that I was okay.

It was absolutely weird how men can have very different personalities to each other. There are flirty, kind, devilish, loyal, and so many types of men. They're all different.

But for sure, lucky girls will get a good man. Taehyung may be an example of a perfect man. Yes, he has his own weaknesses that he may be hiding from us.

But by the way he treats women, I know he has respect. Because he would never touch me without any reasons or my permission. Even he used to make me sleep with him before— but I was the one who agreed.

And he didn't take any advantages on me. He even slept on the floor when he wasn't drunk anymore. Unlike my previous boss. He would always stare on my thighs everytime I wear shorts.

Disgusting.

I was currently eating a piece of cake while Taehyung was busy talking with the people. However, I still needed to be by his side even he didn't need me at all.

I mean, what can I do? I literally didn't know how to communicate with people who has power.

The taste of the cake's icing was too thick and made me felt a bit sick of it. I sighed and slid the plate away from me. Even Mr Soo had prepare variety of delicious food for tonight, the only thing I had taste was the strawberry cake.

Being surrounded by upper people made me felt uncomfortable to eat. They would probably think I was here just to eat.

Sighing, I turned to look at Taehyung and patiently waited for him to finish.

"Taehyung? Is that you? " I heard someone called his name from behind. Taehyung was technically busy talking with the VIP and he didn't even notice someone was calling his name.

I turned my head back to see the person and my mouth was automatically opened. There, right behind me, was a tall girl looking absolutely gorgeous. With her perfect height, I could tell that she's a model.

"Yes Miss? How can I help you? " I asked the girl in a polite way. She gritted her teeth and looked at me.

She had her eyes on me for a few seconds, without blinking. "I'm not talking to you, I want to talk to Taehyung right now. " she gestured and tried to touch his shoulder but I stopped her.

Such a rude beautiful girl. "I'm sorry, but I'm his secretary. You need to ask me before talking to him. " I said sternly.

She scoffed at what I said and poked her cheek with her tongue. "Who are you to stop me? I just want to talk to him, " she yelled a bit as Taehyung finally looked at her.

"What's happening? Why are you yelling? " he asked then looked at me. "What she wants, Eunna? " he asked me.

I let her hand go, "She wants to talk to you. " I answered.

"Okay. " he stood up from his seat and looked at the girl with a bore look plastered on his face. It was the first time I saw his poker face after 2 months working with him.

He sighed, "You wait here. I'll come back in a few minutes. " he told me before walking away with the girl.

"So she's your new secretary? " the girl asked, putting her hands on her waist and slightly looking at Eunna who was waiting at the table.

Taehyung crossed his arms and straightened his back. "Not your problem, Jihyun. " he scoffed.

"Why are you keep bothering me? Don't you have a life to live? " he muttered and rolled his eyes in annoyance. He has a bad feeling about Jihyun and he had never like to be around her since the first time they met.

"Hurry up, tell me what you want. I have no time to waste. " he looked at her. The red colour stained on her lips showed that she just finished drinking. Taehyung scoffed. "Who did you sleep with tonight? A rich old man? Oh, or should I call him— your new sugar daddy? " Taehyung chuckled sarcastically then took a step closer to her.

"You may be pretty. But you have no value. " he looked deep into her eyes, trying to let her know that he really meant what he said.

She looked at him with full of anger in her eyes and hit his chest using both of her hands. "Who are you to talk to me like that?!" she felt triggered by his words.

After all, what his said was true. Taehyung pushed her hands off from him and sharply stared into her eyes. "Watch your hands. " he hissed.

"Everyone knows you. Who wouldn't? You're the only girl who would sell her dignity just for money. " he scoffed, didn't realize what he just said.

"Stop! " Jihyun clenched her jaw. "That girl, " she looked at Eunna. "She must just same as me. Flirt for money. Don't tell me she never try to seduce you. " she tried to fight back by changing the topic on somebody else.

Taehyung knew her trick. She tried to cover her mistake by using other people. A sly smirk showed up on his face, making he felt more fun to start criticising her.

He scoffed, "Don't even compare her to you. You're nothing compared to her. " he told her, seriously.

Jihyun couldn't accept his harsh words. It was like he's trying to put her standards down. "Taehyung! " she looked up at him.

Tears was forming up in her eyes. Yes, they were real tears. But she faked it on purpose. Only God knows how disguised Taehyung was when he looked at her fake face.

"That's how you see me? Really? " Jihyun sniffled, taking a few steps closer to him. Making sure her skin was revealed enough, she placed her hand on his chest, trying her luck.

"You hate me? " she asked. She was secretly trying to trap him. Taehyung was frozen by her actions. He had no idea on what she was trying to do.

Moving her body close to him, she held his tie. At this point, Taehyung didn't know why he didn't move. He gritted his teeth and turned away to see if Eunna was looking at him.

Her seat was empty. She wasn't there anymore. Widening his eyes, he started panicking.

"Go away, don't touch me with your dirty hands, " he pushed her and brushed off his suit.

"Stop with your games. You'll never get enough with what you have. " he hissed and her and walked away.

"Tae! Where are you going? " she groaned as she watched him walking away from her.

Gulping down her throat, she nervously looked up at the old man in front of her. He's not just a normal man.

But he's a man who has a big share in Taehyung's company. So she can't messed up with him. She was afraid if she made a small mistake, he'll back off from signing a new contract with Taehyung's company. Especially when he knows that she's his assistant.

"You're Taehyung's secretary, right? " the man asked while sipping his wine. Eunna forced a smile and nodded her head slowly. "That's right. " she spoke.

"He's so luck for having a pretty secretary like you. " he put his glass down then stared at her face. His actions was inappropriate for her. But as long as he doesn't touch her, then she's fine.

"I wonder how he focuses on his work when he has a beautiful secretary by his side, " the old man started to talk nonsense. That was exactly what a flirty old man would say to any young women they meet.

Eunna cleared her throat and chuckled awkwardly. The old man was breathing heavily. He took another glass of wine and gave it to Eunna. "Here, have a drink. " he told her, sounded like demanding.

Eunna raised up her hand, refusing to take the wine politely. "I don't drink, Sir. " she told him with a bit stern voice.

"Oh, so bad. Taehyung never teaches you to drink with people? How bad. " he shook his head. Eunna gulped by what he said. He has a big share in Taehyung's company and if she messed up with him, he may back off from investing into his company. Eunna sighed.

"Maybe a few sips isn't a problem. " she said hesitantly as her hands were reaching for the wine. She looked down at the glass she was holding then turned to the old man. "What are you waiting for? Just taste it. You'd definitely love it, " he laughed.

She smiled and tried to take her first shot. The bitter taste of the wine didn't fit her throat that well, making her to choke hard.

The old man was surprised seeing her face turning to red. "What's wrong with her? I just asked you to have a shot, " he panicked.

"Eunna! " Taehyung yelled, gaining attention from them. He rushed towards her way and took the wine away from her. He threw the glass and patted her back to make sure she was fine.

"Why'd you ask her to drink when she had already refuse? " Taehyung looked at the old man with a fierce look.

"I just asked her to have a taste. It's not that bad, " he scoffed. Feeling triggered by his answer, Taehyung crossed his arms. "You literally wanted to play with her. Stop lying, Mr Moon. " Taehyung rolled his eyes. He turned back to Eunna and held her by her wrist.

"Let's go, " he said as he dragged her outside.

Taehyung finally managed to calm her down as she stared breathing normally. Eunna wiped her mouth with a piece of tissue Taehyung gave her and gulped down.

"I'm sorry for troubling you. " she apologized to him. It wasn't really her fault. But if she refused to drink, maybe this wouldn't happen.

"Why'd you drink? Did he forces you that hard? " he asked softly, didn't want to sound mad.

"No, " she shook her head. "I just— didn't want to mess up with him. He has a big share in our company right? If I yelled at him, he might back off from investing into our company. " she added.

Taehyung slightly slapped his forehead after hearing her explanation. "Do you think I'm that kind of boss who would ask my secretary to flirt just to take care of my customers feelings? I'm not that bad. " he sighed.

"If someone asks you to do something you refuse, then don't do it. Even if they're VIPs. You hate it, then don't do it. Simple. " he told her.

"Besides, Mr Moon isn't even an important person in our company. Yes, he has a big share in company. But he was the one who begged to join us because he knew our company could make a lot of money. They're still a plenty of companies that are dying to join us. " he chuckled.

"Really? I thought he was really important," Eunna sighed.

"Nope. I can throw his name out from our company anytime without any doubts, " Taehyung smirked slightly.

"So, since that old man has mess up with you, do you want to go back now? " he asked her.

"I'm not sure. It depends on you." she said. "Wait, wasn't you are supposed to be with that girl? Where's her? " Eunna was talking about Jihyun.

"Oh, you mean that tall girl? Just ignore her. She's annoying. " Taehyung rolled his eyes.

"Really? How about me? Is she more annoying than me? " Eunna was joking around.

"Geez, you're not annoying at all. " he chuckled.
