Lisa knew that he would say that, and was extremely speechless.

"Could you be more despicable, Jungkook?"

"Sure". Jungkook nonchalantly rested his chin on one hands as his thin lips held back a vague grin. "I'm just afraid you might cry from how despicable I could be".

"Pfft_" Lisa was drinking her red wine, and could not stop herself from spitting.

Jungkook held a tissue paper across the table to wipe her lips.

Lisa glared at him. "Pervert".

"But I am a wolf" Jungkook shook his wine glass, his eyes glinting with a red flash of catching his prey. "And I love devouring little lambs like you".

Lisa quickly look around them. It was lucky that no one was listening, or she would be so embarrassed she would dig a hole to bury herself.

"Could you shut up, Jungkook!" She stifled her voice through gritted teeth.

What was he playing at!

An expression vaguely resembling a smile dance over Jungkook's lips and she said nothing.

Still, Lisa's heart slowly calmed with the rare silence in the restaurant and started to enjoy the comfortable atmosphere.

Then, when Jungkook was finished with his meal and elegantly wiped his lips, and asked again. "When are we getting married?"

Lisa wanted to scream so badly.

Could he stop mentioning that? She really didn't want to get registered for marriage either, but Jungkook might really take her to court.

It would be awesome when that happens they'll make headlines all over River Town.

[Man takes Woman to court after Proposal refused!]

Regardless of how extraordinary it would sound, Jungkook would still be able to do it.

"Did you forget what I said before?" Lisa hence replies. "I want a proposal like no other over the entire world, or I'm never saying yes!"

It was up to Jungkook to imagine how 'like no other' it would be, and the more time he needed the better.

Be that as it may, Jungkook clapped his own lap and demanded like a kind. "Come here".

"What...."

"Be a good girl. Come".

Lisa stood up, scratching her head and walked to him. He pulled her into his arm, and she simply dropped on his lap.

He lovingly pulled loose strands of her hair behind her ear.

She could drown in the tenderness of his eyes.

Lisa flushed.

That was when a woman wearing a gown entered, putting her violin beneath her chin as she played an outrageously romantic tune.

Isn't this timing a little too perfect!?

Jungkook let her go and smiled. "You will marry me".

He just looked so confident.

In the evening, Jisoo took her bag and basically ran off when it was time to get off work. "I'm leaving first, Lili. My young thing is waiting for me downstairs!"

Lisa felt that something wasn't right even as she watched Jisoo fled. Still, it was too late for her to say anything since she had already disappeared from sight.

Packing up and following suit, she noticed that the light over her head flickered when she closed her office door.

She paid it no need, however, and took the elevator downstairs.
