Chapter 62 - 61. Blurred Line
Emotionally exhausted from talking about Mason and arguing with Hajin right after, Sarah fell into a deep sleep. She didn’t even seem to have nightmares--a very rare occurrence. Perhaps because she got to eat a comfort food, although Hajin hoped their kiss had some contribution to it.
But, well...the important thing was that she could sleep peacefully.
It was such a precious occasion that Hajin got angry when Sarah’s phone kept ringing and vibrating on the nightstand, worried it might wake her up. Yes, she rarely woke up from the alarm or calls, but he didn’t want to take a chance.
He snatched the phone with a frown, wondering if he should turn the thing off altogether. But he saw the caller’s ID and paused. ’Chief Secretary’ it said, which meant the chairman’s direct assistant; the man who always followed him around.
Hmm...he couldn’t just cut this one off, right? Taking her call if she wasn’t able was one of his jobs, after all.
Hajin shrugged and pressed the green button. "This is Ryu Hajin, my master is sleeping."
[Ah...she is? Then you must pardon me for disturbing her rest] the voice on the other side was of an old man who very much wanted to scold the youngsters for not having manners. Still, he managed to suppress it somewhat. [But please wake her up soon, because her presence is expected at the company]
Hajin narrowed his eyes. "No one told us about any appointment."
[Well, yes] Hajin could feel the old man’s eye roll from the tone alone. [Perhaps if you stay at home instead...]
Hajin smiled at the thick criticism that fulfilled his master’s objective and replied with a light tone. "Is this important?"
[That is not for you to decide, Young Man]
