"Are you running away?" he asked.
His question put her into a difficult spot and made her wonder whether or not should she be shameless. Finding it quite tempting to ignore his words, she was about to take a step forward.
"Do remember that there is nowhere you can hide from me," he added.
'That's an amazing way to dampen my hopes.'
The corner of her lips curved upwards while a smile formed on her face. With that, she turned to face him, and her face displayed how forced her expression.
"I really did not know that," she said— her tone filled with sarcasm.
Although they barely had any contact, she found herself being accustomed to the man, and barely she felt intimidated by him any longer.
Considering him to be an introvert, she believed that he had a hard time interacting with people, resulting him to act such way.
 
Certainly she had given the man her word that she was going to stay put in her room for a while, but seeing how he hadn't yet allowed to leave the room after a week caused her to treat his words like utter bullshit.Moreover, he had replaced her caretaker from before and replaced it with someone even more worse— she did not even think that was possible before meeting the woman.Being frustrated due to his actions, she decided to run away once again. Over this period of time, he did not even visit her or comfort her in any way.He was dreaming if he thought that she will be some obedient pet.Since he had brought her here, this was all his responsibility, and not being the one to be considerate, she was determined to leave the room.As for what he had fed her about her safety, she wanted him to take care of it by himself since he was all that capable.
His question had managed to render her speechless, and as if seeming like a child who was being scolded, she fidgeted with her fingers.After a couple of seconds, she said, "Thank you. I will try to be more careful in the future."She also wanted to mention that she might have been perfectly fine if that Han Minjae hadn't provoked her. All alone, she was enjoying her time yet he had to come and ruin that for her.This time he went too far by even potentially endangering her life!Not wanting to blame herself, she held Han Minjae responsible for it in her mind and started to curse at him. Nonetheless, she did not voice out her thoughts to Hyunjin, having a feeling that would only lead for her session with the man to be longer.Finding herself to be in an extremely awkward situation, she started to count numbers in her head, hoping that the time would pass by soon.
True to his words, he allowed her to go around the mansion. Once again, her caretaker was replaced by someone named Kim Yoona.It seemed that the rules here were strict, and breaking of one could lead to grave consequences. Either that, or anything concerned with her was treated with great seriousness.Therefore, since she managed to escape both the times— which couldn't be blamed on the caretaker— they were fired for possibly being incompetent at their job.Without having anyone to explain that to her, she was able to deduce it. Nonetheless, staying true to her selfish nature, she did not care about them.It was none of her business whether or not they were out of their jobs. She wanted to do whatever she wanted without these restrictions holding her back.Maybe she was slightly guilty, but that wasn't enough to obstruct her.Her care
Min Sihyeon knew that she had gone slightly over board when she had chosen over hundred clothing or so, but since the man was Lee Hyunjin, she had to go for an amount that would actually affect him.She believed that this wasn't enough to cause a reaction from him as well since Yoona did not appear bothered too. This probably meant that the limit has not been reached until now.This made Min Sihyeon determined to go for more, but what stopped her was that it was the time. Apparently, she had spent about seven hours shopping, and right now, it was time for dinner.Staring down at her stomach, she realized that she was hungry.Feeling energized after all that excitement, she stood up and stretched her arms while following Yoona to the dining room.Now that she was allowed to go down, it appeared that she was able to dine with the father and son pair as well.&nbs
One thing she was able to use to describe the people working was efficient. It was less than a day since she ordered for the furnitures and wallpaper, and yet they have started working on them.Dressed in a royal blue dress, she leaned back against the couch while she observed the people move in the furnitures. Adorned in striking jewellery and her hair styled in a bun, she appeared to be quite glamorous currently.However, this did not appear to look bad on her. In fact, despite of her baby face, this suit her quite a lot, giving her an over all lavish appearance.Having seen such a look in the drama upon her favorite actress, Min Sihyeon wanted to immediately try it out, and after checking herself out in the mirror, she was really impressed at how good she looked.This was akin to her discovering a new side to herself.Staring at the tea cup in her hand, she thought that it did
"What in the world is this!?"Hearing that loud voice, Sihyeon cringed for a second before getting up from the couch and making her way over to where Han Minjae was.A pleased expression was on her face as she observed the room in front of them while folding her arms over her chest.Leaning against the railing, she voiced out, "This is beautiful, right?"The workers were quite fast for they were done with everything before dinner, and now, all of them were getting ready to leave. Staring at the room, she was filled with satisfaction.The bed in the shade of magenta was something she looked forward to having from ever since sheearned to identify colours, and all the furnitures in the room had similar shades.She even wanted to attach chandeliers in her room, seeing how there was enough space for that. However, since there was nothing that suited her taste righ
"What about the rest of the house? Can I work on it as well? You know how it appears to be quite bland, and I think that it needs a little of—"Raising his hand, Han Minjae spoke out, "Stop! Stop! Just stop! Even if this house belongs to you, I won't let you destroy rest of the place. I think you have done enough damage, so leave the house as it is."His insults barely managed to catch her attention for his previous word struck her more. Surprise filled her, and while her eyes widened, she pointed to herself.A gasp escaped from her mouth as she pointed at herself and said, "You mean to say this place belongs to me? Does this mean that it is not under Lee Hyunjin's name, but mine?"Creases appeared between both of his eyebrows as Hyunjin stated, "Don't tell me that you don't know that Hyunjin had transferred this mansion to you!"The surprise was easily shown
A grin was present on her face while she stared at the wine in the glass. The beautiful shade of made her more tempted to try the drink out.Copying Han Minjae, she took a whiff of the wine before bringing it over to her lips and taking a sip out of it.As the sharp taste touched her tongue, she closed her eyes for a second while she winced. Nevertheless, in order to get used to it, she took a large gulp of the drink.However, regret followed after as soon as she did that, and the taste was too much for her to take in. Placing down the wine glass on the table, she started to cough while she felt her throat feeling strange.She shouldn't have attempted to rush with it!While she continued to cough vigorously, Han Minjae stared at her silently with mock in his eyes, not bothering to help her.Tears formed at the corner of her eyes while she clenched
