Chapter 4: Flirting Part 2

Charles knows the real reason for what happened between his brother and Sandra. No one answered Yuna. A heated tension built up around them. Yuna grabbed Clay's hand that was clinging to her waist. She forcefully removed it. Then, she acted with anger in her eyes as if they were in a real relationship.

"I heard everything. Do you really love Sandra?”

"Please, tell the truth! To end all this," Yuna’s mind whispered. Her eyes were staring at Sandra's face, which made the actress anxious. Clay turned to Yuna. He didn't expect Yuna to be like that. Clay secretly smiled.

"I will explain what–" Clay couldn't finish what he was going to say when Charles immediately interrupted. He hugged Sandra's shoulder at the same time.

"I think you heard it wrong, Ms. Yuna. Sandra and I fought earlier because I did not go with her to the party. She turned her anger on my brother. I think you are mistaken," Charles explained with a smile.

"Who are you? Please don't get involved! Don't ruin my plan to escape from Clay," Yuna's mind whispered again.

“C–Charles?” Sandra only said.

"Now, let me see how you react to this situation. I know you, Clay. The one and only woman you love, that's Sandra. I will prove right now that your relationship with that woman is fake!” Charles' eyes spoke to Clay's eyes. Clay immediately understood with what his brother meant. Clay stared at him with anger. Then finally, Clay answered Yuna's question.

"Everything you heard from us outside the hotel is true," Clay confessed to Yuna. Sandra's eyes widened. She immediately removed Charles' hand that was hanging on her shoulder. Charles didn't expect Clay's honesty either. That was Clay's way of tricking his brother's mind. He knew Charles was intelligent.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?" Sandra exclaimed. The actress approached and held Clay's hand. She was worried about what might happen.

"Why? Is it bad to be honest and true in front of the person I love?" Clay's eyes narrowed. He pulled his hand from Sandra's grasp. Charles closed his eyes when he saw the tears in her eyes. He also tapped his forehead.

"You know my story. You know the story of the three of us. We grew up together, so maybe Sandra thought I loved her. And that's not going to happen. I know she loves my brother. So I won't waste my time on her," Clay continued to explain to Yuna even though that wasn't the truth. He really loved Sandra before he met Yuna in Paris. Tears fell from Sandra's eyes. She was very hurt by hearing from Clay.

"I'm really sorry! I also had no intention of revealing our relationship to the whole world. I know what you want, to live in private. I couldn't think of a way back then, so—"

"It's okay! I understand. I will trust and believe what you say, as long you tell the truth and no lies! There is nothing we can do but accept the situation now," Yuna immediately smiled at Clay. She even hugged Clay. She seems to have forgotten her plan to leave. Because of what Yuna did, Charles' mind became even more confused, and the situation worsened. The smile on Clay's lips reached his ears. He also hugged Yuna tightly.

"What am I doing? Why am I making this psycho feel better!" Yuna's mind whispered when she woke up to the truth because of Clay's hug. Sandra suddenly ran out of the house.

"We're sorry to bother you! I'm so sorry!" Charles apologized, then chased after Sandra. Clay didn't care. He took advantage of the time he hugged Yuna. When Yuna lost sight of Charles, she pushed Clay.

"Stay away from me!" Yuna started to be grumpy again.

“Wow! Can I ask you? Who hugged first? You even stroked my back. Admit it! You can't resist the heat of your body. You want again—"

"Shut up!" Yuna spoke sparingly. Clay laughed out loud.

"Look, I just helped you earlier. It means nothing else. I just feel sorry for you," Yuna added.

"Then, thank you so much, my soon-to-be wife! What you did earlier, you just proved in front of Charles and Sandra that our relationship is really deep. I don't need to force you to act, you have your own will. That's why the best actress award goes to—”

"No next time. I will not help you, Mr. Psycho. And I will never ever—"

"Say all you want, but this psycho is going to be your husband, Ms. Bird-Brain!" The sound of Clay's laughter echoed through his house. Yuna's skin was red with anger. To prevent her emotions from exploding, she just sat down on the sofa again.

"By the way, you can't leave this house. There might be a lot of people waiting for us outside. You can sleep or rest there first. I'll just call someone for the press conference tomorrow," added Clay.

"Here on the couch? Press conference?"

"What's wrong with the couch? Hmm... I know! Do you want it in my room? So we can continue the moment that was interrupted earlier?" Clay raised his eyebrows. Yuna suddenly grabbed the pillow from the sofa and threw it at him. Clay quickly ran to the second floor of his house.

"I caught you, Ms. Bird-Brain! I'll never let you go!" Clay looked at Yuna again then he entered his room. Meanwhile, Yuna took a deep breath. After all, she could walk out the door and leave Clay behind. But she couldn't do it because the red string of their fate tied.

Yuna just took off her shoes. She just lay down on the big and soft sofa. But she sat up again when she remembered her handbag that was inside Clay's car. She stood up and walked barefoot up the stairs. Yuna's eyes immediately caught sight of two doors when she reached the second floor.

"Which of these two is Psycho's room?" she asked. She slowly stepped onto her feet. She listened to both doors but heard nothing. When Yuna leaned against the last door she approached, it suddenly opened. Yuna closed her eyes because she knew she was going to fall. But something caught her body. Clay just finished taking a shower. He was not wearing any top, and his bottom was covered with a towel. Yuna quickly got out of Clay's arms.

Her chest was pounding. Yuna's feet retreated as her eyes avoided Clay's. But with every step she was doing, Clay was following her. Yuna reached the wall and leaned her back against it. Clay smiled. He raised his hand above Yuna's head. Yuna raised her hands to cover her face.

"What are you doing here? Do you want something?” Clay asked mischievously. Yuna felt his breath.

“Ah— because…” Yuna couldn't speak directly.

"What?" Clay asked again. Yuna mustered up her courage to face Clay. But as she lowered her hand, she accidentally hit the towel that was covering Clay's bottom, it fell. Yuna suddenly screamed. She quickly pushed Clay, but the young man immediately grabbed her. Clay leaned her again against the wall. Yuna covered her whole face again with her two palms. Her body began to tremble.

"What do you need? Do you really want to be here in my room?”

“N-No! I'll just say that I want to get my handbag from your car. I'm sorry! I didn't mean to—”

"You want something else, don't you?" Clay whispered in Yuna's ear. He even used a sexy voice. Yuna just pushed Clay, and she ran out of the room. Clay just smiled. He also shook his head.
