City HallLess than thirty minutes later, two attractive creatures in their very flattering clothes walked out of the building with a few papers in their hand. The man clenched his teeth as he tried to keep an emotionless expression on him, but his mind was constantly thinking about his new ident.i.ty; a husband.
On the other hand, the dazzling woman who was walking beside the tall and seemingly aloof but striking gentleman pursed her lips in an attempt to hide her true feelings. Truthfully, she was already dancing crazily in her head because of her new status; a wife.
The two of them were still feeling very much overwhelmed because of this change. It was rather strange when they felt that this was something very new to them and yet also feeling that there wasn"t much of a difference. How weird is that?
Two of the reasons why they were thinking like so was because of the fact that they had already been living together, and they also already had engaged in s.e.xual congress. So although it was a silly thought, both of them had the same thing in mind: "What now?"
Suddenly feeling shy for what just happened, Samantha walked in front of Daniel, she was in a hurry to get in the car as her heart pounded when she thought that she was no longer a single woman. On top of that, she just married Daniel fûcking Cho! The whole Country K"s going to murder her soon when they"ll find out.
When the two of them were nearing, a.s.sistant Ahn opened the door of the backseat.
She was about to get inside the vehicle when Daniel suddenly pulled her arm and she was spun around, b.u.mping on his firm chest.
Lifting her chin with his hand, he stared into her eyes and probed, "Why were you in a hurry? Are you trying to escape?"
Ahn who was just a few feet from them felt fairly awkward. He turned his head away slightly to avoid looking at them in their intimate pose, yet his eyes couldn"t help but glance their way from time to time, obviously curious about what"s going to happen next.
Feeling the coldness of his voice, Samantha gulped. "Uh… N-no.", She stuttered, trying to avoid her gaze away from him but Daniel"s hand urged her to look at him again.
The corners of his mouth lifted upwards, giving her a roguish smile. It was s.e.xually attractive causing Samantha to s.h.i.+ver, her abdomen instantaneously feeling weird and fuzzy.
"Heh… honey… um…" Her breathing hitched. "For sure what he"s doing is inappropriate right now, right? It"s not just me, right?" She wondered.
Seeing his wife"s reaction, he was sure that he was causing this effect on her. Feeling proud, he began to tease further, "Shouldn"t you be giving me a kiss?"
Both Ahn and Samantha"s eyes grew bigger at the same time.
Ahn started to sweat. "Boss, couldn"t you wait for a time when you two are alone? Do you really have to do this right now?"
"K-kiss?" She stumbled over her words. "Kiss here? N-now?" She sounded alarmed as she tried to look left and right, wanting to check if there were people around. Obviously, they were still in front of the City Hall, there should be people around looking at them.
Alas, Daniel isn"t letting her move her head. He had her trapped within his reach, making her look at him face to face. "We"re married now, we should honor the famous saying that says "I may now kiss the bride.", shouldn"t we?"
"Is this handsome man serious right now? He really wants to do this in public?" She was almost freaking out. They did talk about it earlier while they were still inside the office that they were going public today but Samantha didn"t expect that he was going to do it this soon; they had just stepped out from the building a couple of minutes ago.
Breathing out, Samantha had decided to go through with it. They were going to announce it anyway. "Oh fudge it!"
Closing her eyes, she instinctively reached both of her hands on the lapels of Daniel"s suit. Pulling him towards her, he tilted his head to the side as he leaned further until their lips met.
The poor a.s.sistant Ahn on the side, turned his whole body to the opposite direction as it was too much for him to see his boss and the lady boss like this. "Have mercy on me, are you two shoving it to my face that I"m very much single?" Ahn sneered in his thoughts.
The newly married couple kissed briefly but sweetly. Samantha found herself smiling when they broke the kiss as she realized how silly she was acting just now.
"Why are you smiling?" Daniel mused, his hand gently placed on her nape.
Staring back at him, Samantha shook her head. "I"m just happy."
He caressed her cheek and lovingly declared, "My dear wife, this is only the beginning."
The couple entered the car with a smile on their faces and a.s.sistant Ahn had let out a sigh of relief after experiencing that torture from the newly married bosses. The black Maybach left the city hall and joined the traffic in the bustlin" streets of City M.

Four Seasons Hotel
After a long day of TV show guesting and business meetings, Samantha and Daniel finally had a breather.
Later that evening, Samantha and Daniel along with their families had a sumptuous dinner together inside a VIP room of their hotel"s restaurant.
Liam and Seo Joon lifted their gla.s.ses up and together, they said excitedly "Cheers to the married couple."
"Cheers." Everyone chimed in as they raised their gla.s.ses and downed their drinks.
It was a simple gathering between the two families and both Daniel and Samantha wanted for it to be like this. Both of their parents, their brothers, Hannah, Becca, and their a.s.sistants came to celebrate with them.
Hannah stepped up and moved towards the two of them with her phone in her hand. "Okay you two, move closer and smile to the camera. Let"s show those haters how loving you are and we can slap it to their faces!" She exclaimed while she opened the camera application on her phone and directed it to them, making everyone in the room snicker.
Daniel and Samantha followed her and moved closer but the two of them just sat there and looked at the camera.
Lowering the phone, Hannah had a "what the h.e.l.l?" expression on her face. "What is this? A high school cla.s.s picture? You two are experts in throwing dog food to everyone at any time but you can"t even pose?"
a.s.sistant Ahn and a.s.sistant Chen who were sitting next to each other nodded. Both of them sneered in their thoughts, "That"s true! And I"ve suffered from it too!"
Samantha and Daniel looked at each other, not knowing how to actually pose together like what Hannah wanted.
Seeing the confused faces of the two, Hannah sighed and walked up to them, "You, put your hand in here, and you there. Not too tight! Gently, please! Lay your head on hers. Okay now hold that pose." She took a few steps back and held the camera in front of her again. "Samantha close your eyes and Daniel look down." The two of them followed Hannah"s instructions perfectly.
"You guys need to smile, think of funny stuff." Liam added.
Hannah glanced at him and chuckled, "Yeah, think about Liam in a dress!"
"Yeah- wait what?!" A shock appeared on Liam"s face.
Samantha and Daniel formed smiles on their faces, simultaneously, Hannah took the photo. "Perfect!"
"Hey that"s not- you did not just think about me in a dress! I"m too manly for it!"
Samantha chuckled, "That"s why it"s funny."
"I think you"d look cute in a dress." Becca winked at him before she laughed.
Everyone else laughed with them and the room was filled with harmonious melodies of music and voices as they celebrated that day"s union of Samantha and Daniel.
The two of them had been through a lot and the longer that they"re together, the stronger their relations.h.i.+p seemed to get.
But will this be enough for the two of them to withstand the brewing storm that is coming their way?
