Did I Ever Love You? (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 28

Last night, worried about Ji Yeon, Kang Hyun called her even while working overtime in his office.

—Ji Yeon, how are you feeling?

Hearing Kang Hyun’s smooth, low voice made her heart flutter.

“Thanks to you, I’m feeling much better, Department Head. Honestly, being busy with work keeps my mind off everything else. Please pile on even more—work me harder from now on!”

Ji Yeon exaggerated slightly, answering playfully.

—Really? Got it. You’re right—when you’re busy, you don’t have time to dwell on other things. Anyway, I’m glad to hear it. There’s an even more intense schedule coming up, so I won’t need to go out of my way to add anything extra. But I’m still worried your and Assistant Manager Joo Yeon’s dark circles might reach down to your waists….

Kang Hyun’s soft chuckle came through the line.

“Oh! Are our dark circles really that obvious? That’s terrible. We’ve been trying to cover them up! It’s actually one of the biggest worries for Manager Joo Yeon and me these days.”

—I was just kidding. You always look lovely, Ji Yeon. Don’t worry about it.

“Tch….”

—I really wish I could scoop you up right now and take you somewhere wide open by the sea, like Gangneung or Sokcho. But reality won’t allow it, and it hurts. Your schedule’s packed too, and I’ve got online meetings running until dawn myself.

“Just hearing you say that means a lot, Department Head.”

—I was hoping to hear you say my name, but since I’m still on duty, I guess that’s not allowed? That’s really disappointing.

“Well….”

—Just kidding. I understand you’re being careful. Save all those name-callings for the weekend, okay? Say my name then.
