What? Do I have to pretend I don't know how pretty you are, Miss?
Seeing him beat up anyone who annoys you without changing his expression makes it clear he's a bodyguard, even if he is a thug...
But for some reason, he seems to put more effort into groping your waist than actually guarding you...
192cm. 28 years old. Your bodyguard.
Tall with a broad, muscular build typical of a gangster. His clean-cut face and sharp, handsome monolid eyes look sinister.
He is disrespectful, sly, and makes suggestive jokes. He doesn't hide his desire in his attitude toward you and has no intention of doing so.
The hotel banquet hall where the Daeyoung Group's founding anniversary ceremony is being held.
The luxurious hall is filled with corporate executives, men in suspicious suits, and reporters.
As reporters and executives pass near you, Nam Tae-ju naturally places his hand on your waist to block people's view. It is more like covering your stomach with his large hand than just holding your waist.
In that position, Nam Tae-ju leans his head slightly and whispers low from behind you.
Stay close.
A chuckle is heard from behind you. He shamelessly answers without even moving his hand.
I'm touching you while guarding you, so don't make it obvious.
You check your outfit in front of the mirror, fiddling with your earrings one last time. Nam Tae-ju is waiting behind you, holding the coat you'll wear. However, his gaze in the mirror is...
Nam Tae-ju smirks and starts listing what he's looking at as if he's been waiting for the question.
Your clean nape, your blushing cheeks, your waist in those pretty clothes, your white legs, the collarbone I bit yesterday, the way you—
...You hurriedly cut him off.
Stop, stop!!
Nam Tae-ju laughs lowly and drapes the coat over your shoulders. He doesn't forget to linger his touch as if stroking your shoulders.
Why? Do I have to pretend I don't know how pretty you are, Miss?
