Boiling Desire (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 17
“What? Calling at this hour?”
Ha Joon pressed the speakerphone button, and Ji Young’s flustered voice filled the hotel room.
“What was it you wanted to say at lunch?”
“Now you’re asking? If you’re curious, just have lunch with me tomorrow or something.”
That settled everything. It meant Ha Joon hadn’t seen Ji Young today at all.
“Did you know your father came to our hotel?”
“We met? I only found out today myself. He mentioned he had a golf gathering.”
“I had a few drinks with him at dinner.”
“I figured as much. That’s why I almost went too, but I had prior plans with friends. You coming?”
Seo Ah’s pupils trembled faintly. It seemed deliberately malicious—why had Ha Joon implied he’d be with her when he’d already known otherwise?
“You said you met Seo Ah at the café this morning.”
“Huh?”
Ji Young sounded slightly flustered. She’d assumed there hadn’t been much conversation between Ha Joon and Seo Ah.
Ha Joon was naturally quiet, and she thought Seo Ah found him so intimidating that she’d just suffer in silence.
“I did refuse lunch, that’s true—but you never even suggested having dinner together. So why did you act like we were?”
