Jimin had been keeping himself away from Aera. He didn't talk to her for days and he ignored every conversation Aera tried to start. He didn't even say a word to Aera since the incident.

Aera somehow stressed being ignored by Jimin. She knows that Jimin maybe can't move on from the incident yet. But for her, he should at least talk to her!

She felt anger started filling up her heart and she can't hold it anymore. She needs to make all of this clear. She stood up from her seat and went into Taehyung's office. She wanted to go home early and she needed Taehyung's approval. His brother, Taemin isn't available now because he went to Busan for works. So Taehyung took his place as the CEO for today.

"Mr Kim " Aera said once she stepped into Taehyung's office. Taehyung stopped doing his work and moved his gaze to Aera. "Yes, how can I help you? " Taehyung asked.

Even they're friends, Aera won't call him by his name at work. She respects him as her boss. Aera walked closer to Taehyung and told him what she wanted. "Can I go home early today? I've something to settle on " she said while waiting Taehyung to answer her.

Taehyung looked at the clock, "Yes, you can. But can I know why? Do you have problems?" he asked in concern. Aera smiled at his answer and shook her head. "No, it's nothing big but I need to settle it up as soon as possible. Don't worry " she said

Taehyung sighed and nodded in understanding. "Okay, but make sure you're fine okay? " he asked and Aera nodded. "Thank you, Mr Kim " she said and headed out from his office.

Once she got Taehyung's approval, she went directly to Jimin's office. She wanted to ask him what had been stressed him out lately. She entered the big, tall building and got approached by the new environment.

This building was more way different then the place Aera works. They have such a big difference. This building was very big and the decorations totally make Aera speechless. It was classy, simple but luxury.

The people who work here were all serious. They didn't even talk while doing their works. Everyone here seemed so strict and focused on their works. She went to the questioning counter that was placed at the main lobby.

"Good morning, Miss " the worker approached Aera who just came. Aera smiled to her and looked around. "Can I know where's Jimin? " she asked. The girl furrowed her brows in confused and looked at her friends. "Do you mean Sir Park? The chairman? " she asked Aera back.

Aera nodded her head, "Yes. I'm searching for him. " she said.

The girl was hesitate to tell her where's Jimin because she didn't know who Aera was. "Can I know your name, Miss? " she asked.

"Kim Aera " she answered. "Sir Park is still in the meeting room so let me ask his manager first " the worker said and Aera nodded. She didn't bother to tell the girl that she's Jimin's fiancee because if Jimin didn't tell anyone, so why would her?

She waited patiently and a moment later, she noticed that the girl was looking at her as if she was shocked. "I'm sorry Miss. I didn't know you were Sir Park's fiancee " she apologized, bowing to Aera.

"It's okay. It's not a big deal anyway " Aera said, not feeling too comfortable when someone suddenly bowed to her. "So where's his office? " she asked.

"On the 19th floor, Miss. His office is at the corner. You can ask anyone if you lost " she said. "Okay. Thanks for your direction. " Aera said and went to the lift.

I was going through all the files my manager gave me. I focused on every words and everything that was wrote on the papers.

Suddenly, I heard someone knocked the door and I closed the file right away. My manager walked in, "Sir, your fiancee is here. " he said and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"You mean Aera? " I asked in confused. Why would she comes to my office? She never did this before. "Yes, Sir. She said that she needs to see you right now. "

I sighed, "Let her in " I said and my manager nodded. "Alright Sir" he said.

I hurriedly keep the file in my desk and repaired my sitting posture. Then, she came into my room. "What make you come here?" I asked.

She inhaled deeply and looked at me seriously. I can feel that she had something important to tell me. That's why she came here. I stood up from my seat and said "Tell me, what is it? ".

"I want to ask you something " she began to talk.

"What happened to you that day? Since you scolded me, you didn't even talk to me. Even when I wanted to start a conversation with you, you ignored me. Can't you please don't make me confused? Just tell me what actually happened. At least I know " she said.

Oh, so that was what she really wanted to know. Why do she really wanted to care about me? I bet she knows I won't do the same to her. I put both my hands into my pockets and looked at her.

"Why do you care? " I asked her.

She folded her fist, "Because you're my future husband! " she yelled a bit. But it didn't surprise me. I walked to the side of my office and stared out the window. She was confused because I didn't respond to her even she has yelled at me.

"You have seen my worst side. Do you still want to talk to me? Aren't you afraid to get close to a hot tempered man like me? " I shot her with my questions.

"Didn't you once think of— cancelling our marriage? You saw how I almost hit you. Yet, you still want to continue this marriage?" I added and finally turned to her back.

She was speechless when I asked her those questions. I can see her face expression changed right away. I scoffed, "You regret for agreeing to marry me, right? I knew it ".

"So what you gonna do now? Cancel our wedding? " I asked and she looked at me in shocked. Then, she walked towards me angrily. She stood up right in front of me and I looked down at her. She must wanted to say something to me and I was interested to know.

"Yes. I regret for accepting your proposal. I thought I was going to marry a good, kind man " she spoke. Her words was quite harsh but it didn't affect me at all.

"But " she added.

"Once I said yes to your proposal.. I've determined to accept you by who you are and I'll never judge your weaknesses. I accepted you with open heart, Jimin. Because I know, how cold you are, there's at least some love in your heart " she speak her heart out.

I can't lie that I quite surprised by her answer. But no, I won't let this stupid feelings fools me. I turned away, "But I'm a hot tempered guy. " I said.

She suddenly held my arms and make me looked at her. I got a minor goosebumps when she touched me. I wasn't used to get touched by people.

She looked up into my dark eyes and said " I know it wasn't you, Jimin. The Jimin I know is only cold hearted. You're not hot tempered. That's why I come here to talk to you. I want to know what was the reason. What make you so angry. Please, tell me " she begged.

My mouth felt like it was zipped after I heard what she said. I know that her words were sincere from her heart. I can feel it. But I don't know why my heart can't accept it.

I pulled my hands away from her and scoffed. "You don't know me, Aera. You never know me and you've said so? Wow. Do you think you're that smart? How funny" I commented and laughed sarcastically. I clapped my hands, "You're so good. Yes, you may read other people. But not me, Kim Aera. I'm Park Jimin and no one wants to get close to me. They will try their best to avoid me. Especially trying to know me. Just stop this all nonsense stuff " I said strictly.

"But Jimin " she didn't give up.

"Stop it " I stopped her from continuing her words. I looked at her and clenched my jaw. I took a few steps closer to her and looked straight into her eyes. It was the only way to make her listen to me.

"People may think I have everything. I'm a successful person. I have big house, I own a big successful company and I have the look. Soon, I'll get married. They think I got everything and they still think that I'm perfect. " I said

"But one thing they don't know " I said, taking another step closer to her.

"There's one thing I don't have but they think I have " I scoffed. "You know what is it? " I asked to know her answer. But she shook her head, showing that she don't know.

I smirked, "I don't have feelings "

"And they never know that. Even until now " I said and looked at her reaction. I could say that she was scared. Seeing those pitiful eyes.. It makes me satisfied. I love seeing someone lost their hopes on me.

"Oh, and here's something I want to tell you. " I said and placed my face right beside her eyes. So that I can whisper the words into her eyes to make sure she hears each words carefully.

"Heartless person like me is dangerous. They know how to make hell feels like home. "

A smirk crept on my face. "So be careful with your feelings towards me, baby girl " I said and laughed bitterly.

Without saying a word, she took her handbag and headed out from my office. She looked so upset.

That's what you got when you tried to know me. I'm not a normal guy like she thought. I'm more than that. I stared at the door and went back to do my works.

Aera arrived at his home and rushed to her room. She locked the door and threw herself on the bed. She threw all the pillows onto the floor aggressively and yelled in frustration.

"I've done everything to make he loves me. But I keep failing. I don't know what to do with that jerk anymore " she said as her heart hurt so much.

She didn't hate Jimin. But she started feeling to give up on making him to love her. "Why'd he acts like that? Why can't he just tell me? I'm going to be his wife anyway! " she groaned and was about to let out her tantrum. But she heard someone knocked her door.

She stopped and placed the pillows on the bed back. She didn't want anyone to know that she was having a broke down.

"Coming " she said, walking to the door while making sure that she looked fine. She opened the door and her gaze met Uncle Seon. "Yes? " she asked.

With just a glance, Uncle Seon knew that Aera was sad. "Why with that face, Miss? Do you have any problem? I can help you " he said.

"Do I look sad? " Aera asked as she placed her right hand on her cheek. "I must look so miserable " she sighed.

"It's okay Miss. You know you can share with me, right? Your secrets will be safe with me " he smiled genuinely. Aera sighed and invited him to have a seat. Then, she told him everything that happened that day. Uncle Seon listened to her story carefully and nodded his head slowly.

"So that's what had been bothering your mind lately " he commented.

"Actually.. I know what happened to Sir " he said and Aera gasped a bit. She was so desperate to know the reason. "Why? What? Tell me! " she said

"He was so mad because he met his dad that day. That was why he was so angry. "
