His empty eyes shone then. He hurried towards her, looking delighted and surprised, "It's you?"

Lisa smiled faintly she still had the vague sense that she knew him before. "So, you're a pianist"

No wonder his fingers looked so beautiful....so refined.

"That is but a title", he smiled humbly, before adding worriedly, "but are you alright? How have you been?"

Lisa was surprised that he still remembered that incident. Having lived in her own world, she grew to believe that pianists were out of touch from the common people and extremely arrogant.

And yet this man was so caring.

She shook her head then. "I'm fine, thank you"

Then, after a pause, she asked hesitantly, "Are....are you alright?"

Briefly taken aback, the man smiled again, "Not dying yet"

For some reason, Lisa felt extraordinarily sad upon hearing the very word 'dying'.

As an awkward pause hung in the air, the man grinned faintly and offered his hand, his gaze as gentle as the stars.

"I'm Cha Eunwoo"

Lisa looked at the pair of hands extended towards her and hesitated for a moment before grasping them stiffly.

"I'm Lisa" She replied, quickly withdrawing her hand.

"That's very nice name", Eunwoo said, although there was a brief flash of disappointment in the corner of his eyes.

"Really? Thank you!" It was the first time Lisa heard someone praise her name, and she smiled earnestly.

Then, Eunwoo looked around. "You're not leaving? Should I give you a ride?"

"No....No need" Lisa quickly waved her hand.

Since Jungkook was still not here by now, he must have got home by himself in irritation.

That damned man.

Meanwhile, Eunwoo could not help but smile at her cautious, strong look, the melancholy in his eyes soothing.

Did he really look that frightening?

That was when a Bugatti abruptly stopped by the main entrance. The door opened, and Jungkook got off, making his approach with a sinister look.

All the lines on his face were tightened, and his eyes were scalding with killing intent.

Around him, a dark presence was raging without control, and he appeared to be a demon coming straight out of hell amidst the rumbling thunder.

Speak of the devil indeed.

Lisa took one step back by reflex. A slap from him could kill her, along with that frightening look of his.

However, he stood still, and gathered he into his arms firmly.

Silence.

A second passed, and then another....

"Darling". Jungkook smiled, gently kissing her cheek and sweet talking tenderly. "Be nice, quit throwing a fuss. Our son's waiting back home".

It was a declaration of ownership and that the woman already had a baby with him!

However, Lisa denied that with a red face. "Who is your darling!"

Shameless!

She was single, please!

Still, Jungkook kept his patience and kept his coaxing going with his baritone. "Come on, darling. You can punish me as you like when we're home being angry hurts the body, alright?"
