Chapter-9

I gave Mark my number and he said that he would message me the place and time.

Currently I was checking some important accounts that Jin gave me. It was not that they don't have enough employees who could do it, they could buy the whole Seoul if they want but Jin wants to prepare me for taking up my father's business.

Everyone in my family and in his family cares for me a lot. My father wants me to work with him for sometime after completing my graduation before I take over the company.

He won't be able to teach me properly as I'm literally Daddy's girl, so he wants someone who can scold me, who would understand my thoughts better and especially someone who would take care of me like he will and there is no one better than Jin.

I was finished with the accounts and fixed all that I thought was needed to be fixed.

I felt my phone vibrate and I guessed that it would be Mark.

I wore a magenta jumpsuit and tied my hair into a messy ponytail. I put on light makeup and wore some matching jewellery.

"Unnie I will be back in some time." I told Ivy.

"Take care and don't be too late." She pecked my cheek and I giggled.

I got into the passenger seat of my car and told the driver my destination.
He would probably tell dad about it, so I messaged him.

Y/n- dad I'm going out for a while with my friend. No need to worry the driver would be outside the hotel.

Dad♥- enjoy and be safe ;)

I entered the restaurant. It's interior was all cream and brown, it was soothing to my eyes. Not many people were there.
Huge chandeliers were hanging from the ceiling. The furniture was wooden, to my liking.

I saw Mark sitting on a table. He was wearing a white buttoned up shirt and his hair were combed back neatly. He was staring intensely at the flower which was placed in the vase at the centre of the table. The flower was bright purple with some contrasting white and yellow.

I approached the table and Mark drew his attention to me.

He stood up and kissed my hand. I looked at his face and saw an admiring smile on his face. He pulled out the chair for me and I sat comfortably.

"I hope you like this place. Although it is not as classy as the places you go to." He said touching the back of his neck nervously.

"Believe me when I say that I'm happy to be here. I get tired of those classy places sometimes. Eating, talking and walking carefully just because I have a reputation to maintain. It feels nice to be here." I sighed contently.

"Well I'm glad that you like it here." He smiled softly. He was looking like an angel. His smile could literally light up the whole room and his eyes were so deep and calm that one could get lost in them.

I was brought back to attention as a waiter approached us,"Bonsoir Mademoiselle et Monsieur. Welcome to la vin et raisins. I'm Audric your server for tonight. What would you like to have? Or should I give you more time to decide?"

"I'd like some confit de canard with your best wine." Mark said.

"And you mademoiselle?" The waiter asked me.

"Some ratatouille and beef bourguignon." I told him.

Mark and I talked about various things as we waited for our food. He was an interesting and artistic person. Passionate about things and possesive about people.

The food was delicious and I could not find better french food in Korea than this.

"Do you know what does a pansy symbolises?" Mark asked out of nowhere as we were eating the dessert.

"No, but I'd like to know." I said as I looked at the tri coloured beauty in front of me.

"The admiring and loving thoughts of a person about another. But to me it means the people who are free thinkers, so they accept love from wherever." Mark said with a noticeable smile on his face.

"That's deep but I like it and I like the way you think." I smiled at him. I picked a flower and tucked it behind his ear.

"You look cute." I giggled and he laughed with me.

"Merci mademoiselle." He said and kissed my hand again.

"Do you want to have anything else?" He asked me.

"You" I said and the look on his face was precious.

"I'm kidding bitch. Let's leave" I giggled and he chuckled too.

"I had a nice time with you and I'd love to hangout with you again." He said and I smiled.

"I had a nice time too. Meet you tomorrow." I said as I got into my car and he went in the opposite direction.
