Private Secretary Episode 64

“….”

“Even while watching Kim Se-na being held by Ryu Hwa-pyeong, I could only think of you. I wanted to hurry to you to check if you were okay and apologize.”

Before she knew it, the food had been forgotten as Lee Seol stared intently at Tae-san, and Tae-san continued speaking while warmly cupping Lee Seol’s cheek.

“When we went to the baseball stadium together, when I saw you smile brightly for the first time, I thought you were pretty.”

“Oh….”

Embarrassed by the word “pretty,” Lee Seol turned her eyes to the innocent pasta.

Then Tae-san grasped her chin and lifted her head as if asking her to keep looking at him.

“I think from that moment I wanted to spend more time together. I didn’t realize it at the time.”

“….”

“And thanks to you, the project that was completely stuck also went well, so naturally I couldn’t help but see you as pretty and good.”

“….”

“That’s how you just kept seeping in. Rather than anything being particularly good, the more I got to know you, the more everything became charming.”

“….”

“Should we clear this up if you’ve eaten enough? I want to hold you.”

“Again? That’s too tiring….”

“No, I’ll just hold you. Though of course, I’ll kiss you too.”

Tae-san gently bit Lee Seol’s earlobe while wrapping his arms around her waist. Now she was finally starting to feel his affection becoming real.

* * *

Rrrr- Rrrr-.

When the desk clock’s morning call rang, Lee Seol immediately opened her eyes.

Being held in his warm embrace, she didn’t want to leave the blankets. She was thinking she’d get up after just one more minute when she reached to turn off the alarm.

Tae-san, who had been lying behind Lee Seol and holding her comfortably, came closer and gently bit her earlobe without hurting her.

“I’ll give you vacation time, so rest for a few days.”

“…What?”

“There are probably still people gossiping because of the article, so take this opportunity to rest.”

“…Would that really be okay?”

“Your boss is saying he’ll allow it, so what’s the problem?”

When Lee Seol turned around to lie facing Tae-san and stared at him, he looked at her lovingly and kissed her forehead.

“Then how long should I rest?”

“As long as you want to rest.”

“Is that really okay? There’s still a lot of work.”

“The project is entering its final stages, so it’s fine.”

Lee Seol looked up at Tae-san and smiled softly, and Tae-san hugged her tightly.

“Then hurry and get ready for work. I’ll lie here a bit longer.”

“But now that I think about being in the office without you, I don’t want to go to work.”

“Go quickly before you’re late.”

When Lee Seol patted his back, Tae-san sighed lowly and got up from his spot as if he had no choice.

While Tae-san showered, Lee Seol submitted her vacation request and went outside the bedroom. After simply washing her face and brushing her teeth, Lee Seol began preparing breakfast.

Come to think of it, she suddenly remembered buying sous vide steak when she first started working as his secretary.

When Lee Seol opened the refrigerator door, there happened to be beef for steak.

Lee Seol immediately took out a pan and placed the meat directly on the pan with melted butter. With a sizzling sound, it began cooking appetizingly.

She was pouring the melted butter over the meat to cook it evenly.

Lee Seol felt warmth behind her back. It was Tae-san who had finished showering.

“Are you making this for me to eat?”

“Yes. Instead of not going to work, I wanted to at least prepare breakfast.”

“You don’t have to.”

Though he said that, he didn’t seem to dislike it, as Tae-san hugged Lee Seol tightly and rested his chin on her shoulder.

“I submitted the vacation request, so please approve it when you get to work.”

“Okay.”

Tae-san, who had been caressing Lee Seol’s flat stomach, slowly began sucking on her nape.

When Lee Seol laughed and slightly dodged that ticklish sensation, Tae-san persistently turned her face around and pressed their lips together.

“Wait a moment. This is almost done.”

But there was no such thing as “a moment” for Tae-san. Lee Seol received his kiss while glancing sideways to turn off the induction cooktop.

When Lee Seol cupped his cheeks and opened her mouth wider, Tae-san sat her on the countertop.

“It’ll get tough if it cools down. Hurry and eat.”

Tae-san didn’t even respond to Lee Seol’s words and pressed their lips together again.

As his hot tongue filled Lee Seol’s mouth and made her mind hazy, he slightly pulled down Lee Seol’s top to expose her collarbone.

“Haah…!”

When he sucked hard on it, Lee Seol moaned briefly and ran her fingers through his hair.

As she felt the intimate touch teasing her breasts through her clothes, Tae-san gently bit her nape.

“You won’t eat the meat I cooked for you, but why are you devouring me….”

“Because this tastes better.”

Tae-san said while looking directly into Lee Seol’s eyes.

To think he could say such ticklish words so casually. It didn’t seem like the Kang Tae-san she knew, so in a way it was fascinating.

Meanwhile, Tae-san’s caresses became more persistent, and Lee Seol gripped his shoulders tightly.

Due to his warm breath and hair tickling her neck, her lower abdomen began to tingle gradually.

“Stop now….”

Lee Seol, thinking he would be late at this rate, finally came to her senses and pushed him away.

Tae-san stared at her intently with half-dazed eyes, then bit her cheek sharply.

“We can’t go any further.”

When Lee Seol pushed his shoulders away and tried to get down from the countertop, Tae-san lifted her up and carried her to a dining table chair to sit her down.

Then he personally served the steak Lee Seol had worked hard to cook onto a plate and sat next to her.

“I didn’t have time to make garnish. Tomorrow I’ll make side dishes too.”

“It’s fine. You don’t have to.”

Tae-san cut the perfectly cooked steak and fed Lee Seol first.

Lee Seol obediently ate while stroking his short hair. When she briefly caressed his sturdy neck, Tae-san looked up at Lee Seol.

“It’s troublesome when you stimulate me like this.”

“What? What did I just do….”

“Just the fact that you did something to me makes me heated.”

“Then I’ll just stand at attention and stay still.”

“That’s troublesome in its own way.”

“What is this. What am I supposed to do if you say both this and that are troublesome.”

When Lee Seol laughed as if absurd, Tae-san laughed too.

This moment of looking at each other and laughing felt like a dream, so Lee Seol gently caressed his shoulder and looked at him with tender eyes.

“What?”

A warm voice as if speaking to a child. Even the affectionate touch of hands offering food.

Lee Seol declined saying it was okay while touching her fingertips to the corner of his eyes.

“Is there something there?”

“Just, I like how you look at me like this.”

“…Huh?”

“Anyone can see it’s the look of someone who loves me. I wanted to have these eyes.”

“….”

“Because until now, such warm gazes weren’t allowed for me.”

“…Is it very different?”

“Of course it’s different. Honestly, even when you told me you liked me last night, I couldn’t believe it. But now I think I can believe it a little.”

“…A little isn’t enough. You have to believe it completely.”

Lee Seol approached Tae-san, who was smiling at her, and kissed the corner of his eye.

When Tae-san closed his eyes for her, Lee Seol pressed her lips to his closed eyes several times.

Tae-san held Lee Seol’s waist and just stayed still as if telling her to do whatever she wanted.

As Lee Seol’s gentle kiss ended, Tae-san looked up at her and smiled.

He couldn’t believe such a cozy morning could exist.

“I’ll get your clothes ready.”

“There’s no rush, so stay beside me.”

“You’ve almost finished eating.”

“Still, stay beside me. Once I go to work, I won’t see you until I get off, so I need to look at you a little more.”

“Wow… Department Head, no, Kang Tae-san saying such things.”

“Why? Was it too cheesy?”

Tae-san fed Lee Seol the last remaining piece of meat and got up from his seat.

Though she said he didn’t need to do the dishes, Tae-san insisted on washing the bowls clean before kissing Lee Seol all over her face.

The two finished brushing their teeth side by side and headed to the Dress Room. As Tae-san put on his white dress shirt, Lee Seol carefully selected a tie.

“You don’t have any external meetings today, right?”

“Right.”

“Then should we skip the tie?”

“Still, I should wear one when I go.”

“Then let’s go with something a bit casual.”

When Lee Seol took out a narrow black tie, Tae-san, who had finished putting on his shirt, approached and bent his knees to match her height. He meant for her to tie it for him directly.

“Did you practice?”

“…No. I think I forgot everything.”

She had practiced earnestly at one point but then neglected it for a while, so she wasn’t confident, but Lee Seol still boldly wrapped the tie around his neck.
