Office Romance Scandal (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 17
When she opened the door, a large man standing before her cast a shadow over her. Hae Jin, who had been keeping her gaze fixed somewhere on the floor, lifted her head—and her eyes met his.
“Team Leader?”
His gaze pierced through the furrow between her brows. Reflexively, Hae Jin furrowed her own brows, though for a different reason—it was a defensive expression meant to hide the fact that she’d just been crying.
“Did you need something?”
She tried her best to sound casual, but her voice, thick with tears, gave her away.
Yet Tae Hong offered no reply to her question. His eyes, which had been looking down at her, quickly swept over her face.
Her chalk-white pallor was a blank canvas that revealed everything about her. With her reddened cheeks, it felt as if his eyes kept searching for something—somewhere—in her face.
Every time she stood before him, she couldn’t hide anything. And eventually, he always found the reason. Was he trying to figure it out again now?
His thick fingertip brushed the tip of Hae Jin’s nose. Startled by his reaction, Hae Jin’s lips parted slightly. Her breath, heavy with tears, felt hot.
“Were you crying?”
“No.”
Only the sensation of where he’d touched her nose lingered.
“Don’t cry.”
His unexpected gentleness stirred her emotions even more. All she wanted was to calmly avoid the situation, yet there was nowhere for Hae Jin to hide.
Tae Hong himself, blocking the doorway like an immovable wall, was part of the problem.
