When I woke up the next day, I felt myself having a killer headache from drinking too much last night. I groaned softly as I slowly sat up, rubbing my pounding head. I started to wonder what happened last night. The only thing I could remember is my conversation that I had with Jae last night. After that, everything is a blur. I really hope that I didn't get into any trouble. This is the reason why I hate drinking. You never remember what you did the night before and the next thing you know, people are coming up to you and tell you that you slept with someone or ran around the streets butt naked.
I yawned softly as I looked around the room, wondering where I am then I glanced down at my body, feeling a slight draft. My eyes slowly widen in horror then I frowned, silently praying that I didn't run around the streets butt naked.
"Good. You're awake." A voice suddenly said.
I looked in front of me to see a tall, good looking guy. He seemed unfamiliar and I wondered why he's in the room with me.
"Um...who are you?" I softly asked.
That's when a thought came to my mind.
"Wait...Did you..."
I quickly covered my bare chest with my arms, feeling my heart pound then I watched as the guy softly chuckled, smiling at me.
"No. I didn't rape you. Though, you owe me a new suit." He said.
I narrowed my eyebrows, confused about what he's saying.
"I owe you a new suit? Why?"
"Because you vomited on it last night. The cost is five thousand dollars."
My eyes widen again at the price and my mouth nearly drops open. This guy has got to be kidding if he's expecting me to pay five thousand dollars for a new suit.
"I...I don't have five thousand dollars. I'm in debt right now..." I shamefully said.
The guy nodded as he stared at me without saying anything. Finally, he sighed then pulled some sort of paper out of his pocket and walked over to me then he sat down on the bed next to me and showed me the paper.
"How about we do this, I'll help pay off your debt in exchange of you marrying me." He said, smirking.
I quickly snatched the paper from his hand then looked it over, not believing any of this. Then, I looked at him.
"I have to marry you? Why? I don't even know you." I noted.
The guy nodded again. "I see. Does the name Lee Min Ra come to your mind?" He asked.
I racked my brain for the name, but nothing came up. I haven't seen this guy before and I've never heard of someone named Lee Min Ra before.
I shook my head. "Nope. I've never heard that name before."
The guy stared at me, searching my face then he sighed and stood up. He grabbed the TV remote from the nightstand table beside the bed and turned it on. I looked over at the TV and watched as a program came on.
"Here we have the famous bad boy model, Lee Min Ra, showing off the new summer collection for this year." The announcer said.
The program showed a bunch of photos of the guy standing next to me, modeling. That's when I finally realized who Lee Min Ra is. Lee Min Ra is the most successful model in Korea. Everybody is pretty much crazy about him. All the girls want him and all the guys want to be him. He looks like the typical high school bad boy, but much cooler and mature.
"Does it ring a bell now?" Min Ra asked after awhile.
I slowly nodded.
"Yes, but I still don't see why I have to marry you. I mean, it's nice that you're wanting to help pay off my debt, but how is this benefitting you? Don't you want a new suit instead?" I asked, still confused and curious about Min Ra's intensions.
"The reason I want you to marry me is confidential." He said coolly.
I sighed, a little frustrated.
"Mr. Lee," I started.
"Please, call me Min Ra." He said, cutting me off.
I nodded. "Min Ra...How can I marry you if I don't know why you're wanting me to marry you?" I asked.
Min Ra turned to me and smiled a devilish smile.
"Just be a good puppy and sign that sheet. I have to go to work now. I expect you to come by my studio with that sheet signed." He said, slipping his shoes on and grabbing his jacket.
"And if I don't sign?" I asked, watching as he headed towards the door.
Min Ra slowly turned and looked at me with piercing eyes.
"You'll regret it." He said then left the room just like that.
I sat there, feeling dumbfounded. How did my life go from being in debt to being forced to marry a super model? I know if anybody was in my shoes, they would jump at the opportunity to marry a guy like him, but I still feel uneasy about it. Even though Lee Min Ra is a well known model in Korea, I know nothing about him personally and I'm not sure if he's wanting to benefit from this or wanting to laugh at me or whatever.
I sat there, trying to think things through until I came to a conclusion. I appreciate Lee Min Ra's offer to pay off my debt, but I can't accept his offer of marrying him. It just wouldn't be right and it'll make me seem like I'm marrying him for his money. I believe in marrying someone who you deeply love and care about.
I sighed softly as I got out of bed then slipped my clothes back on. I grabbed my messenger bag and looked through it to see if I have any money to pay for the hotel room when I noticed that my wallet is gone. I stood there, frozen then I turned over my bag and dumped all of my contents out of it and watched as they landed on the bed. I quickly looked through the pile of books and papers to see that my wallet is indeed gone.
I sighed in frustration, rubbing my fingers through my hair. My wallet contained my credit cards and my license. Without it, I can't pay for anything. I guess I don't have a choice right now. I have to go see Lee Min Ra and get my wallet back, but I doubt he'll just hand them over if I don't sign the marriage registration form. I picked up the registration form and looked it over once more, seeing Lee Min Ra's name already signed. I groaned softly then shook my head.
"Lee Min Ra, you're one sly guy..."
