At Daniel's penthouse, Samantha was on the bed without complaints. She behaved like she was being punished by a parent. Who knew Daniel could be this strict to her?

"The patient is burnt out and fatigued from working too hard the past few days and not getting enough sleep. Her body's immune system is weak so she needs to have complete bed rest. I've prescribed medicines that she can take to reduce her fever and alleviate her sore throat.", the doctor stated.

"Thank you, Dr. Nam.", Daniel shook his hands.

"I must go, call me if you need anything.", he nodded and returned Daniel's handshake.

When the doctor left, Samantha peered through the covers and tried to gauge Daniel's current mood. His face is unreadable, void of all emotions as he strode around the room getting a bunch of things for Samantha. He called his assistant and ordered him to buy the medicines. He did everything before he turned to sit beside the bed where Samantha is.

"You're not talking to me.", she complained coyly.

Daniel looked at her, his eyes softened as he watched his woman on his bed.

"Say something. I can't bare you not talking to me.", Samantha gave her best pout.

He sighed as he rubbed his nape, "You can't do that again, Samantha. If I had known that you'd be exhausting yourself like that then I wouldn't have agreed for you to do it in the first place."

"But I really wanted to do it myself, at least that's what I owe my people and also to prove to you how serious I am.", she defended herself.

Daniel looked at her, seeing her eyes full of seriousness. She really did want to prove herself.

"Honey, you don't have to prove anything. You've already built your company and it's already established. Your people believed in you even when they haven't met you yet, their CEO; they already know your capabilities.", with a gloomy expression, "And you don't have to prove yourself to me. I already know how amazing you are."

Samantha realized that she overdid herself. But that was something that was very hard to control, even if she forced herself to stop working on the prototype, her brain would remain active and not let her rest. She felt that if she stopped, it would be unbearable for her since she can't release her thoughts into coding. That's why she'd always end up overworked and fatigued.

"This is the second time that you got sick while I'm around and all because you didn't take care of yourself. But actually, I'm the one feeling bad because I didn't take care of you enough. I shouldn't have allowed you to do that.", he expressed his sentiments.

She looked at the man not far from her and all she could see is how blessed she is. 'How can I repay you for everything?', she asked inwardly.

"Daniel.", she muttered.

He lifted his head when he heard her call him. "Hmm?"

"Do you know...", she pursed her lips. "I like you very much."


His heart fluttered upon hearing those words. It's the first time that Samantha confessed to him like that. 'Whatever it is, Samantha, I'll take it!', he thought.

Seeing that she didn't receive any response from her man, she called him again, "Daniel? Did you hear what I said? I said I like you..."

"You missed a couple of words.", he commented.

"Huh?"

"How much do you like me?", he asked in all seriousness.

"Do I have to say it again?", she blushed.

Daniel didn't say anything and just looked at her as if he was waiting for her to say it.

It took her all the strength she had to make herself braver, extending her hand toward him, she declared, "I like you very much, Daniel Cho."

Receiving her warm and weak hand, he squeezed it gently as if he was telling her that he heard her.

"Are you going back to the office?", she probed.

"There's not much to do. I'll stay here. I'm afraid that if I leave you alone you'd cause a ruckus.", he teased with a smile.

...

It was already evening and Samantha was still in bed feeling bored. Daniel just left the room and went to the kitchen. When he came back, Samantha excitedly asked, "Can I watch Netflix?"

Without a room for negotiation, Daniel strictly refused, "No, you need to rest your eyes. Here drink this ginger tea while it's still warm, it'll help your throat."

She pouted her pretty little mouth but still accepted the cup of tea from Daniel's hand. Its fragrant aroma and warm, spicy flavor invaded her senses making her feel better instantly, she took a sip and turned to the beautiful man who was watching her closely making sure she's going to finish all the tea that he made.

"Oh, by the way... I don't have spare clothes. Can I go home and get some? I promise I'll be quick and hurry back.", she assured. Daniel had already insisted for her to stay at his place so she no longer resisted.

"I already asked Ahn to buy you some clothes, there a few sets in those bags.", he pointed at the shopping bags by the foot of the bed.

"You really need to give him a bonus. The poor man is running around outside of his work responsibilities.", she commented.

"Well, we could avoid doing that. Why don't you just stay here instead?", he suggested nonchalantly.

"W-what do you mean?", she stammered.

Daniel walked closer and sat on the bed. He looked at her eyes and with a brave move he proposed, "Move in with me."
