Hidden Wife : Best Husband Chapter 213
Advertisement
The Silla Seoul Hotel.
Sweat drenched Jean's face, who looked tired from working too hard today. Her mother was back in the hospital so Jean had to work hard to raise money. Although not too much, the overtime pay was quite meaningful for her.
Slowly, Jean cleaned the room, while holding her aching stomach. Maybe this was the result of not having dinner. Jean was too excited so she didn't rest while the other workers were all resting. Besides, she had to go home early so she could see her mother at the hospital. Tonight her mother will got an operation.
Since Soo Yin took a day off from working at the hotel, Jean can breathe a sigh of relief because Park Soo Hyun rarely looked for her. So that she can focus on working. At the hotel there were rumors that blew in her ears. Many female workers said that she was a material girl who tried to approach Park Soo Hyun because of his treasure.
Jean didn't care about their completely proof crap.
Park Soo Hyun accidentally saw Jean as he passed a new room that would be used for a spa and other facilities.
It turned out that this was a very good time. Speak of the devil. That's how the saying went. He had been looking for her but could not find her. Unexpectedly that he saw her there.
Kim Soo Hyun couldn't delay his plans any longer. Tomorrow night he must succeed in confessing his feelings. He needed Jean to take Soo Yin to a place that he wanted.
"Jean," Park Soo Hyun said as he handed a handkerchief to her when he saw Jean's sweaty face.
Jean paused for a moment from the floor sweeping activity that was being carried out. Still could not believe what she saw. A man as handsome as Park Soo Hyun handed her a handkerchief.
"You better go home because it's already late," Park Soo Hyun said.
Subconsciously Jean reached out to receive the handkerchief and then rubbed her face.

"Sorry, I have to finish my work, sir," said Jean without caring about Park Soo Hyun who sent her home.
"Jean, can we talk for a moment?" Park Soo Hyun said hopefully.
"Go ahead, sir," Jean said. If Park Soo Hyun looked serious like this then there must be something to say.
"I want to ask for your help," Park Soo Hyun said with a bad feeling because it was always a bother.
Jean took a deep breath because she could already guess that if Park Soo Hyun was looking for her it must be because there was something. She could already guess if it had something to do with Soo Yin.
'Sir, could you just find me once not because of Soo Yin,' Jean thought with a tight feeling in her chest.
"Just this once," Park Soo Hyun said hopefully. After this he wouldn't ask Jean to help him anymore. Because after this he can take care of it himself
"If you succeed then I will gift a romantic dinner for you and your lover. You don't have to worry about all the costs," Park Soo Hyun said sparklingly.
Jean just smiled bitterly at that. Lover? She never even thought about anyone other than the man in front of her right now.
Even though she had tried to forget him. Still can't. Jean didn't know what else to do so that her heart didn't want him. At that time she should have just resigned and should not have cared less about the prohibition. Jean felt too stupid.
"How, you must agree, right?" Park Soo Hyun repeated his question with great enthusiasm. Really hoped if Jean will help him.
"Sorry, I don't have a lover, sir," Jean said sadly and then lowered her gaze to look at the floor blankly. Her fingers gripped the broom handle very tightly.
"What if I just treat you to a vacation?"
"No need, I don't want anything," said Jean with tears that unconsciously fell from her lids. How could it be if she could have fun when her mother's condition that returned to drop.

"Jean, I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you sad," Park Soo Hyun said. He thought that Jean had just broken up from her lover so she cried.
"Sir, can you get out of here?" Jean already felt uncomfortable with the words of the female employees who worked at this hotel since Park Soo Hyun asked her to eat at that time.
"I will not go until you are willing to help me," said Park Soo Hyun.
Jean felt quite annoyed that Park Soo Hyun didn't even understand how she felt.
"All right, you don't have to worry, I will help according to my promise," said Jean with a little emotion.
"Is it true?" Finally his attempt to persuade Jean this time was successful.
"Thank you, Jean. You are the best," said Park Soo Hyun while holding up his thumbs.
"You're welcome," said Jean briefly, tried to smile.
Finally, Park Soo Hyun left the room so Jean returned to continue her work so that it could be finished. It's nine o'clock in the evening, didn't want to be late because she had to take the bus with the last route.
Suddenly there were several female employees who came over to her. The sound of their footsteps was so strong that Jean turned her head back to look at the women.
"Jean, you should be aware of yourself. Don't get too close to the master if you don't want to get into trouble," sneered one of them.
"He belongs to all of us so don't you try to approach him."
"If you ever try to seduce him one more time. Get ready because we won't be silent."
The women looked at Jean so cynically. As if she was like a cheap seductive woman.
Jean just frowned without caring with what they said. She was accustomed to hearing such sneers.
"You're deaf! Why are you silent?" said one of them with her hands on her hips.
But their guts shrank when they saw Park Soo Hyun who was standing at the door. With wide strides they immediately left Jean.
Jean looked confused why they suddenly left because she wasn't aware of Park Soo Hyun's arrival.
"Jean, come home, it's already late," Park Soo Hyun said, which made Jean jumped while holding her chest.
"Sir, you startled me," Jean grumbled.
"Sorry," Park Soo Hyun said while scratching the back of his head which didn't feel itchy.
"Go home," Park Soo Hyun continued.
"I have to finish the job first, sir." How could Jean would go home now if her work was not finished. Later she will not get overtime pay.
"You don't need to worry because I've sent overtime money to your account. Now go to the hospital," Park Soo Hyun said. He had just found out that Jean needed money for her mother's expenses. No wonder Jean looked sad when he offered her a vacation. In return he would pay for her mother's hospital fees.
Jean was stunned for a moment as she wondered where Park Soo Hyun knew about this.
"Hurry to the hospital. Your mother must be in need of you right now."
"How do you know if my mother is in the hospital?" Jean was curious because ahe didn't tell anyone of her problem. Only to Jae-hwa she did tell the story. There's no way Jae-hwa will tell.
"It doesn't matter, now go home."
"Thank you sir." Without thinking, Jean immediately left her unfinished work because the last bus would soon be here. She didn't care of how Park Soo Hyun found out about it. She'll ask him later.
Actually, Park Soo Hyun had intended to deliver her, but tonight there were work to be done.

The kingdoms have rarely experienced peace, with kings and rulers warring against each other on any percieved slight. With explorers riding the waves to find new lands and merchants eager to set up trade routes while profiting as much as possible. Would the status quo still hold up? The veil is already weakining as more magic and horrors seep through the gap. How would the world deal with the sudden increase in the limited resource of magic? With the times changing, barren lands become trade hubs and the power shifts. The system holding it all together, is in a fragile balance, would a single death break the balance and cause the most devastating war the people have experienced. The direction of the story : The story will not contain any main protagonist, rather multiple protagonists and antagonists with the protagonists having bad some character traits and the antagonists some good ones. I plan to make a story of flawed humans, so if you are looking for OP MCs you would not enjoy it. But I still hope you give it a try. This is my first time writing and I am doing it to get better, so any suggestion or criticism is welcome. I am a university student, so do not expect a robust upload schedule, I'll try to put out 2 chapters a week, but there might be some delays. I apologize for it in advance. P.s. English is not my native language, so there might be some errors, though I tried to mitigate them as much as possible.
