Standing Right Next To You Chapter 328
Advertisement
"You scared him away, you big weirdo!" Lina snarled at her assistant who shot her a sarcastic and glowering look the very next second.
The accusation was not something that he was willing to take upon his head without fighting back.
"Maybe he saw that dog bite on your neck and got weirded out as I did!" Benji retorted while scoffing at her.
Reuben was called a dog which made the girlfriend's protective senses tingle and overwhelms her as she prepared herself to defend her man.
"Ruby is not a dog!!" She snarled at Benji for using such a term to describe the love bite that she had received from Reuben.
The assistant, in answer, rolled his eyes and did not bother to continue this conversation with her any longer.
'I can be mad at you too!' Lina sneered in her mind and then huffed as she took the seat on the farthest couch away from where he stood.
Seeing her behave this way, Benji also did not have the intention of conversing with her and he turned the other way as he occupied the other side of the couch.
A few minutes passed and when the door was pushed open, the two people inside the room turned in the direction of the noise only to find a panting young man standing at the door.
Stephen Jin was bent forward with his hands resting on his knees as he gasped to catch his breath.
When he had just exited the elevator, Supervisor Tim had informed him that his Noona had arrived already which made the young man rush towards his office space.
Upon entering the room, he noticed that his Noona and her assistant were sitting in silence inside his room.
"Noona! Here!" He gasped while holding up a black object in his hand.
Lina and Benji rose from their seats and walked towards him to figure out what it was that he was displaying to them.

"First, take a seat." The kind Noona pulled him along and made him sit as he was still huffing.
'This guy has such low stamina… Tsk!' She clicked her tongue when she saw how he was wiping his sweat.
There was no way that he could have climbed up to this floor using the stairs so there was only one valid explanation for the perspiration on his forehead.
"You ran all the way from the elevator?" She inquired and received a sheepish nod from the puppy.
Benji fetched a glass of water for the young man and when he heard this being said, he shot Stephen an incredulous look.
'That distance is about 30 feet and he is already this tired?' He sneered at the youth of today who did not exercise and only sat on couches all day long.
Stephen had no clue that he was being looked down upon for his lack of physical strength as he gulped down the water that he had been offered.
Lina waited until he was no longer panting and only then did she glance at what was in his hand.
"A USB Drive?" She muttered after realizing what that black object in his hand was.
Stephen heard her words and nodded as he held up the drive for them to have a better look at it.
"The designs are all in here, Noona." He revealed with a proud smile gracing his face.
The designs that she had seen in the notebook were drawn all over again in a digital format but this time they were the finished products that he would be showcasing in his Winter Collection.
"I have a copy for myself and this copy is for LY." He informed them that they do not rush to bring it back to him.
Lina accepted the drive from her puppy and in the next moment handed it over to Benji.
This action made the young man open his eyes wide as he shot a questioning look over at Lina.

"Your Noona trusts him so even you can trust him." She explained and patted his head.
Though he could not push away the fear in his heart, he also could not express his doubts before her.
Therefore, he turned towards Benji and glared at him as he watched the man place the USB drive in his pocket.
"Keep it safe!" He added to calm his anxious heart.
He had spent the entire night and this morning giving his entire time and effort into completing this project.
The chance to work with LY was something that he could boast about for the years to come and he was worried that this assistant might mess it up if the drive was misplaced.
Lina could understand his nervousness and hence she decided that it was time to explain certain things to him.
"Steph, did you know that this assistant of mine has undergone military training and can hack into computers like it is child's play?" She disclosed while wiggling her brows.
'Military training is child's play compared to the training that Master Wind gives to his recruits.' Benji sneered at this woman who did not know the entire truth about her brother.
Stephen on the other hand was shocked at first but soon nodded his head.
"I saw what he had done during yesterday's debacle." He answered after recalling how every employee received the videos of Maxene at the same time.
However, he did not know about the military training part of the story.
'I always thought that he is just a big gym freak who has a muscle brain.' He thought and chuckled that he was so wrong in judging a book by its cover.
"So the chances of him getting robbed are much lower. You don't have to be worried anymore." She reassured him which made the young man feel better even if it was just a little.
Lina glanced at the time and noticed that it was 12:30 PM which meant that she only had thirty minutes before she had to reach Ming Enterprises.
Her work here had come to an end after she had succeeded in obtaining the designs that she needed to work with.
"Steph, I have to go now but rest assured that this drive will reach LY without any hitches!" She promised as she rose from her seat.
The worried man had finally calmed down and only now did he notice that she was wearing casuals rather than her usual work attire.
'Noona looks good in anything she tries on.' He complimented her physique which was one that could assimilate with and accentuate the clothes that she wore.
He gawked at her curves which were at the right places making his creative juices flow as he was thinking upon new concepts that he could make after this collection was done and dusted.
As he was taking in the view of the woman who was heading towards the door, he was brought back to his senses when he noticed that she was about to turn around.
'Eyes up, Jin! Noona might think that I am ogling at her ass if she catches me looking at her backside!' He feared and raised his head in time to meet her eyes.
Lina knew that he was watching her but she did not know which part of her that he had been subconsciously gazing at.
"I will be handing this over to LY personally so I might have to leave town for a bit. I have made up an excuse so if someone asks you anything just say that you do not know." She instructed him before leaving the room once and for all.
