Nathan Yun smiled a gentle one at her. A smile that he always gave her whenever she was feeling down. "I was in the area… I just wanted to see how you were doing.", he said.She knew that he was there to check in on her because of the articles online. She returned a polite smile and nodded, "I"m alright, thank you."
He walked nearer and stood beside her, "You"ve been everywhere lately. Do you like what you"re doing?
Samantha relaxed a little, it was quite refres.h.i.+ng to be able to talk to Nathan like that. She leaned on her car and crossed her arms, "Yeah, I guess. I mean… it"s something different and I like traveling. It can get overwhelming though but so far it"s been okay."
He nodded upon hearing her answer. When they dated back then, she still used to hate being in the limelight. She would mostly just keep to herself and didn"t do so much on her own. But now, the new Samantha was a total opposite, she had supporters and followers of her blog. And even though she had just started, it had already changed her.
"You look great, Sam.", he praised.
Surprised by his sudden compliment, she looked at him and didn"t know what to say.
Noticing her reaction, Nathan chuckled, "What I mean is… you look more confident. The way you interact and carry yourself now, I guess it"s because you have come out of your sh.e.l.l. And… you look more beautiful."
Samantha still didn"t know how to respond to him; her heart throbbed because of his words. She no longer loved Nathan like before but it didn"t mean that her affection for him was totally gone. She realized that she still cared about him somehow, that even though she is no longer in love with him, she still respected him.
"I honestly don"t know what to say to that, Nathan.", she chuckled and he laughed. "What about you, Dr. Yun?", she asked.
Nathan was just about to answer her when a car had just arrived catching their attention. It was a white Audi R8 and it parked in front of Samantha"s car. The two of them looked at who was getting off it and saw Andrew Park.
Samantha immediately felt uncomfortable upon seeing him. Nathan looked at the man and he vaguely remembered that he was a patient from several months ago.
Andrew walked towards Samantha and glanced at the man beside her. "Who is this man this time? Is this another one of her lovers?", Andrew had already forgotten his doctor from before.
Ignoring his presence, Andrew stopped in front of Samantha, "Sam, can we talk?"
Samantha could still remember how her hand felt after slapping the b.a.s.t.a.r.d"s face. "What is he doing here this time? Does he want another slap?", she thought
Come to think of it, she had already slapped both Nancy and Andrew. The two of them deserved it and they deserved each other.
She stood straight, she instantly felt that she had to be cautious around Andrew. "What do you want Mr. Park?", she asked with an annoyed expression, refusing to call him by his first name.
Nathan took a quick look at Samantha and saw her countenance before he s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards Andrew. "Park?" he pondered, and suddenly recalled Chairman Park. He then realized that this man was indeed Chairman Park"s son.
Andrew"s brows furrowed a little when he heard how she addressed him. "I have something to tell you.", he briefly looked at Nathan before he asked Samantha with a calm expression, "Can we talk in private?"
"Whatever it is that you want to say, Mr. Park, you can say it here.", she firmly answered.
He didn"t want to entreat but he felt like if he didn"t say it now, he may never be able to in the future. After what Nancy had said back at his office, it was all that he could think of while he was driving on the way to see her.
He had never admitted that he loved anyone else and didn"t think that he would be feeling it as he had never actually felt it before. He wasn"t actually sure that it was indeed love, but the strong feelings that he felt for Samantha and how he was still constantly thinking about her after all this time, if it wasn"t "love"… then what was it? These thoughts were on his mind and it was driving him crazy especially when Nancy had cornered him, he just snapped and blurted those words out.
Andrew Park swallowed before he pleaded, "Please?"
She was about to answer him but the sound of an approaching car interrupted her. They all turned their heads to watch as the black Maybach stopped in front of them.
The door of the driver"s side opened and came out a das.h.i.+ng man in a charcoal pinstripe suit. His eyes were fierce as he approached the three of them. The man looked like a king with the way he walked as if he owned the place.
Samantha had just seen him a couple of hours ago and yet now that she saw her man again, she suddenly wanted to run towards him. Her heart pounded in antic.i.p.ation as she didn"t know what her fiancé was going to do seeing that she was standing there with two of her ex-boyfriends.
He arrived at Samantha"s side and without hesitation, he lightly lifted her chin up and gave her a kiss on the lips.
She was a bit surprised but she did not resist at all. They broke the kiss and all that she could utter was his name. "Daniel..."
He smiled at her as he placed an arm around her waist, "I"m sorry I"m late."
