"who is he?" Yeri gently tugged at him, breaking the deadlock between the two.The heavy atmosphere instantly dispelled, shin glance at her looking like a sailor enchanted by a siren"s allure, "my Secretary...dont mind him, his just weird"
Secretary yun: "....! boss how could you?! this is clearly a slander! a slander!", he grieves inwardly.
"lets go", shin speak in a dignified tone but his expression promptly change into a gentle and kind demeanor when he gaze at Yeri.
"what a two-faced devil!!!!", Secretary Yun cursed inwardly, wiping off the sweat on his forehead, he immediately opened the car door.
He wanted to take a peek at the woman who successfully catch the devil"s attention but didnt dared to, his job and safety is of the utmost importance.
-----------------
Stuck in a traffic congestion, Shin took this opportunity to hound her with questions.
"Where do you live?" shin asked in a calm tone.
"in a dorm...im studying at SC advance university" yeri lightly smiled.
"ohhh? not bad..." Shin chuckled, now his curious of Yeri"s background, afterall SC University is not an ordinary school, they only accept students who came from wealthy and affluent families. There main campus -SC advance University- is catered for the heirs or successors of every notable family who were exceptionally smart, the preliminarily a.s.sessment test itself is back-breaking.
Secretary Yun seemed apathetic while driving but what Yeri said also piqued his curiosity, he p.r.i.c.k-up his ears while waiting for the boss to ask more questions.
"since your a student...how old are you?" Shin slowly ask, a dangerous light flashed his eyes.
"18..." Yeri briefly answered.
Shin smiled, feeling a sense of relief. At least its just a 10 year gap...?
However that one word stunned Secretary Yun, caught off guard, he almost slammed the car to the vehicle in front.
"18???? she"s just 18?! did the boss just committed a criminal act?!",.. "uh, im sorry boss! its because the car in front suddenly stop..." Secretary Yun nervously explained but didnt hear any response.
"you...dont look 18...I mean you look young but.. ", completely oblivious to the minor incident, Shin"s eyes slowly went down to Yeri"s chest.
"that"s because my mom isn"t asian, i inherited most of her looks especially her eyes..." Yeri calmly retorted, not minding Shin"s penetrating gaze..."by the way, i still dont know who you are" she promptly asked, immediately diverting the topic to Shin, eventhough she"s used to people staring at her, Yeri dont feel comfortable talking about her mom.
"You dont recognize me?" his tone suggested a bit of surprise.
Yeri tilted her head not understanding what he is implying... "is there a need to know him? is he really someone famous" she thought?.
"I"m Shin Kier" he said enthusiastically.
Yeri"s mind suddenly went blank, lost for words, she can hear her heart pounding like crazy... "why is this name so familiar?!" feeling ominous, she decided to ignore her thoughts.
Shin frowned seeing her uncaring expression, unlike other women who would do anything just to get his attention, this ethereal beauty in front of him looks like she doesnt care, maybe she really don"t know him...but no! he cant let this happen! Normally, he was never mindful of what others thought of him but towards her is different...a part of him doesnt want to be misunderstood. He wanted her to know who is "Shin Kier" unknown to others...unable to grasp the unfamiliar emotions his feeling, Shin"s expression darkened, his dark and cold eyes look through to Yeri.
Shin took out a business card from his suit and casually pa.s.s it to Yeri.
Still in a daze, Yeri subconciously accept the business card and blankly stare at it...as if she was slap by an invisible enemy, Yeri froze with her eyes wide open, she firmly gripped the card on her hand...

#%&*^¥$"+
.....
Yeri felt her consciousness blur that her brain can only understand the first three lines written....
Shin Kier...

K.V...K.V.....
K.V!?!?!??!
while staring at the card, Yeri turned pale, her hands sweaty and her mind is in total chaos.... "is he the real deal???"...that CEO Kier...
a multi-billionaire company...conglomerate...
Shin...
Shin....
Just his name is enough to damage her brain cells but seeing him in person at a close range is clearly an overkill!... Yeri slowly look-up, meeting his eyes, she felt her body wreak in havoc..."yy-ou"re really ss-hin kier?!"... thatt shin k-kier?".. her voice quivered as she look at him in disbelief.
