She Knew She Loved Him(Completed)

The fresh morning breeze awakened Zunnie's senses after she inhaled a big gulp of fresh air. She bit down on her bottom lip and looked up at the brightly lit morning sky.

She and Sanua had plans to go out tonight and Zunnie was particularly happy they were meeting up. They had not seen each other for three weeks now and Zunnie missed her wittiness.

"Today is going to be a great day!" She exclaimed, reassuring herself that nothing bad would happen at the club with Sanua.

Even if Sanua was a darling, she often went too far. One occasion Sanua punched a drunk guy who insulted Zunnie because she refused to have a drink with him and the pack of wolves with him. Luckily the security came to help them before this got worst. Remembering that on incident out of the many they had experienced, Zunnie chuckled heartily.

As she walked toward the complex housing her condo, sweat glistened all over her bare skin from the run she just had. It felt good to be energized on her day off and she was happy.

She inwardly repeated her plans before heading out later in the evening; one was to clean the fish tank she received for her eighth birthday from her mom. The other thing was to tidy up her place.

Although Zunnie had a house cleaner who came once a week at the request of her dad, she still enjoyed doing house chores.

Her dad was overprotective at times and after her mom passed away, he was constantly doing unnecessary things.

Like one time on her twenty-fourth birthday, he threw her a surprise party and invited only boys. If it had not been for her older brother who became furious and invited a few of her friends, he would have succeeded in ruining her special day.

On another occasion, he invited her out to lunch and never showed up. Instead, he arranged a blind date for her with a boy who had gone to her high school. Jang Zhi had teased her constantly at school and she hated him. Even though he seemed more mature and handsome, she couldn't help but be mad at her dad.

She had been shocked to see Jang Zhi walk in and introduce himself like he was her old friend. As soon as he sat down she became even more livid. She hurriedly got up, said goodbye and left. On her way back to her office she called her dad.

Mr. Bai saw his daughter calling and knew he would be scolded. So, he had ignored her call and sent her a message saying he was busy and would call later to which he never did.

Seeing that he was lying to her, Zunnie had called her big brother Eyan Bai to complain to him.

Eyan even burst out laughing after he heard what had happened. He didn't seem surprised because his dad always found ways to make Zunnie mad. Although his plans always backfired, he still insisted on trying to marry off his only daughter.

After that call, Zunnie remembered him saying to her that he would talk to their father. She was certain that Eyan had called their father.

Thinking now about the problems her dad made for her, Zunnie wondered if her dad had replied to Eyan's call seeing he had ignored hers. Even though these events happened a while back, she couldn't help but be cautious when her dad invited her out or made plans on her behalf.

Thinking about her dad, Zunnie walked into the apartment unaware someone was staring at her back from their bedroom.

"Mr. Zi?" Secretary Zhang repeated a third time before he heard a reply.

"Mhm, yes...c-continue," Alex replied his gaze still fixated on the back of the girl who was no longer there.

He was on the phone with his secretary speaking about a dinner meeting he had later today with two investors from a construction company.

As soon as Alex answered the phone, he hopped out of bed and walked towards the wall standing in front of the bed. He opened the curtains blocking the wall of glass letting the rays of sun peak through. The sun slapped his face gently, waking him up.

Holding the phone to his ear, he looked down only to see the back of a woman with long red-brown hair pulled back into a high ponytail walking into the building. She wore a rose-pink Nike jacket, black shorts paired with a set of white and rose-pink running shoes. She had on a pair of earphones as she walked in. Her walk was confident yet graceful for someone who just came from jogging.

Alex had no idea what was happening, but he had been mesmerized by the view of her back that he had spaced out.

After he got off the phone with Secretary Zhang, he took shower then drove to the office to sign documents that needed his signature.
