Just as Fara Han expected, President Hawk indeed stormed into the hospital the next morning. Fara set up an appointment for her daughter and while the doctor was attending to her wounds, Ami waited outside the door, very much expecting the M Conglomerate’s President to come any moment soon.

The moment President Hawk showed up, Feather’s assistant immediately welcomed him with a face that bore all the worry of this world, almost as forlorn as if someone had died. It was obvious that she was faking it but President Hawk whose attention and concern was fixated with his ever beloved fiancee didn’t give her much of a weight. However, for Lucas, Ami’s acting was nothing but a pure exaggeration.

​​

“President, I’m very sorry I have to give you a call even though Miss Han was very clear not to inform you about this,” She sounded rather convincing than her acting, “I know she’ll be very much upset of me when she’ll see you here but I just thought you have all the right to know especially now that you had been engaged,”

“Tell me what happened and make sure not to miss out a detail,” President Hawk sighed badly. His schedule today was all full but the moment Feather’s assistant called, he had them all canceled and rushed to the hospital in an instant.

“Well…as you see…even though she was really happy last night something was bothering her after the party and I know it was because the guests made her feel very upset” The girl started her scripted narration, “They flooded her with too many questions when you went missing for a while especially when they all see you danced a woman before you suddenly disappeared. Although Miss Han was very certain you just went to attend on something important, still, some guests were suspicious…”

Lucas suddenly cleared his throat to distract the girl from continuing. Then with a casual controlled smile, he looked at her, “Assistant Ami why don’t you just jump right into the part when Miss Han was injured?”

Lucas could tell the girl was trying to make his boss feel guilty. He really didn’t understand why Ami was doing it but he understood that the girl might be protecting Feather’s interest and her loyalty to her made her do this blaming. He just hoped that Feather had nothing to do with all this or else President Hawk had surely gotten himself some prima donna bitch.

“Oh, I’m sorry I was just lost for a moment. I’m just very worried,” Ami apologized in an instant. She thought she could drag on more of the blaming part to make Hawk drown in deep guilt, yet his assistant was a sharp one. “Well since Miss Han wasn’t feeling well emotionally, she stumbled herself on one of the fragile vases in the Brick Mansion and hurt herself,”

“Was the cut deep?” Hawk asked immediately. His voice was stern but deep inside his heart was cut a thousand times knowing his foolish self made Feather upset and worst, she ended up injuring herself.

“The doctor is still checking her out but I’m very sure that even if the cut isn’t deep it will still have a serious impact on her knowing she’s a ballerina. Of course, people will expect her to be flawless and she had been very careful all these years about her physique but last night was just too much” Ami pointed out not giving President Hawk a chance to redeem his broken confidence. No matter what, she had to make sure the M Conglomerate’s President would regret what he did last night.

“I’m sure it isn’t that serious President Hawk,” Lucas intervened before his boss would kill himself with guilt. “If it is, then the Hans would not wait for morning to bring Miss Han here. They should have called for a doctor right away. Am I the right assistant Jang?

Lucas’ conclusion caught Ami off guard. His thoughts were all with sense and she could not right away think of something to refute his claims.

“Well…”

“President Hawk?” Feather’s surprised gentle voice caught everyone’s attention. She, with her mother Fara, went out of the room where the latter had been treated and their faces shared the same kind of expression. From looking at Hawk, she dragged her eyes immediately to her assistant and immediately confronted her as if she was all but innocent in dragging Hawk away from his full schedule “Ami, you called him?”

“Miss Han, I apologize greatly but I really thought your fiancee should know about this,” She lowered her head faking guilt.

Hawk didn’t wait for more words to be said. He immediately went closer to Feather and gave her a thorough look. Looking down on her legs, he saw a thick bandage wrapped around just an inch above her knee.

“I want to speak with the doctor please,” Hawk requested. He wasn’t sure what to feel about Feather’s wounds but he felt that he needed to ask an expert opinion on how to alleviate her fiancee’s situation.

“President Hawk please, my daughter is really tired and today’s appointment is very traumatic for her. She just requested me to bring her home immediately,” Fara implicitly denied his request and smartly shifted the attention to Feather’s emotional well-being rather than her physical state. Having Hawk talk to the doctor will surely give him some relief for Feather’s wounds were really nothing serious and she basically didn’t want Hawk to have that.

Hawk turned to look at Feather this time who indeed was looking pale and tired. With a resigned sigh, he said, “Whatever you want my dear. I’ll drive you home then,”

“Wait, President Hawk,” Feather kind of protested when he talked about bringing her home. “It’s true I don’t feel like staying here any longer as the appointment just gave me a surprising trauma but having you here honestly makes me feel better. If it’s not too much to ask, I request that we have lunch together, you and I?”

Hearing Feather’s request made Fara smile inwardly. Looked like her daughter learned how to play her cards well.

“Well, I guess that’s a better plan since you both had a lot of catching up to do,” Fara delightfully agreed with her daughter’s request. “Last night had probably made you both too busy you barely had time for each other,”

Hawk was not able to answer her immediately as the way Feather made her request gave him some kind of strange feeling, something that made him too unfamiliar to her when he thought he had memorized every part of her already.

“President Hawk, please. However, if your schedule doesn’t really allow it—”

“No my dear. Of course, we can have lunch together,” Hawk replied, not wanting her to beg any longer. Then as any gentleman does, he offered her his arm to escort her out, “Shall we?”

His response sponsored a smile on his fiancee’s face and Feather’s face brightened that only made her more beautiful than she already was. She then put her hand around Hawk, making a claim to the man she very much coveted.
