Ch.237Feelings? To be honest, I didn’t have any particular feelings.

The day I almost lost my hat and got into big trouble.

Of course, Evelyn Queen Ember was severely scolded by those around her.

“Are you crazy?! What were you thinking pulling a stunt like that? Do you realize how much danger you were in?!”

“I’m sorry.”

“You’re lucky Kim Donghu was there, going without security guards…! Don’t you know how crucial this period is for you?”

After taking another deep breath before continuing.

Mamila opened her mouth again.

“And you! No matter how stubborn she was being! How could you just accept that? You should have at least assigned secret security!”

“I apologize.”

CAE representative Mamila, seemingly unable to calm down no matter how many times she spoke.

She continued speaking with rapid breaths.

“We’re letting this slide only because things turned out well, otherwise, I swear!”

Bang!

Mamila slammed the desk with her delicate hand and checked the current SNS reactions.

Naturally, they were extremely hot and positive.

How positive?

Enough to receive calls from numerous talk shows that wouldn’t budge even for a #1 star.

“It’s fine to be in love, but please do it safely, okay?”

Knowing there was no point in scolding further, Mamila concluded her lecture.

“What? What?!”

Evelyn was startled by those words.

Her face asked how Mamila knew.

Seeing that expression, Mamila chuckled.

“How long do you think I’ve known you?”

“Is, is it that obvious?!”

“Of course it’s obvious. Have you ever run off without security guards just to see a man before?”

“Well, no…”

“Exactly. And you’ve never given me headaches over relationship issues before.”

Do you understand what I’m saying?

Hit right on the mark, Evelyn’s face turned red.

Even her body flushed crimson.

The typical look of a girl whose first love has been discovered.

Seeing this, Mamila laughed softly.

“Honestly, romance issues are what the agency considers most dangerous.”

“What?”

“We can’t interfere with an actor’s private life… but it becomes extremely problematic if you meet the wrong person.”

“…”

“Following a lover into drugs, gambling, strange fetishes… getting involved with bad people.”

As if the mere thought was horrifying.

Mamila fidgeted with an unlit cigarette and shuddered.

“Compared to that, Kim Donghu is the best. His only flaw might be his complicated women issues?”

Saying this, Mamila looked at Evelyn.

With an expression that said, you already knew this, didn’t you?

Evelyn nodded as if to acknowledge it.

“Still… I don’t think he’s unfaithful.”

“I guess not. Probably not? He seems to take responsibility for everything. Like a lion.”

To think there’s someone who genuinely tries to do that in today’s world.

Mamila muttered this while briefly recalling the past.

‘Those fools probably didn’t investigate properly… but I dug up everything about Kim Donghu.’

What works he’d done, what incidents he’d been involved in, and so on.

She needed to know exactly what kind of man Evelyn, who was like a daughter to her, was falling for.

And the results revealed something incredible.

‘How can he have… so many women?’

His popularity was beyond imagination.

From what she could tell, there were five including Evelyn.

It didn’t seem like the number would increase.

But it didn’t seem like it would decrease either.

In reality.

‘Netflix filming? At that… there’s something suspicious about his relationship with that girl from the food truck.’

People only know about the scene where Kim Donghu rescued Evelyn.

They know nothing about what happened afterward.

After Evelyn urgently left the scene.

Naturally, filming ended right there.

People were busy moving quickly to evacuate.

And that’s when Mamila clearly saw it.

-Are you crazy? Why did you do that, why… you could have been seriously hurt, these people… they all had guns, you know… Kim Donghu, are you really insane…!

-My body moved before I could think, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to worry you.

-Who told you not to save her? Who told you not to move! You got hurt… don’t get hurt… it makes me hurt too.

-I’m sorry, don’t cry, okay? I’ll try not to get hurt next time.

A brown twin-tailed girl crying in Kim Donghu’s arms.

They were speaking Korean so she couldn’t understand, but.

‘A woman holding his bloodied hand tightly… wiping it while crying.’

She couldn’t forget that scene.

That was love.

Sincerely crying at seeing someone else hurt.

And embracing that crying person tightly.

‘But that doesn’t mean he’s pushing Evelyn away because of her.’

Then there was only one answer.

He intended to have them all.

Kim Donghu was one of the few beings who actually had that capability.

For Evelyn to enter such a chaotic situation.

It was worrying, but on the other hand, she thought it might be okay.

‘Our girl isn’t the type to get lost in these things.’

Mamila stared at Evelyn for a moment.

Then shrugged her shoulders.

“Well, fine, go ahead.”

“…Yes.”

“You’re going to Kim Donghu, right?”

“Um… yes.”

Nod, nod.

After discreetly dismissing the manager with a gesture.

Mamila gave some intimate advice in the space where only she and Evelyn remained.

“…Ah, I haven’t thought about babies yet!!!”

Evelyn was shocked as soon as she heard that advice.

Her face turned strawberry red from her godmother’s spicy practical advice.

+++++

One week after the food truck incident.

“We’ve brought her here with great difficulty! The hottest person right now? Evelyn Queen Ember!”

“Hello everyone.”

Evelyn appeared on a talk show.

‘Huh?’

‘Hmm?’

‘What?’

People were surprised.

‘Was she always this mature?’

Because she gave off a completely different impression from the Evelyn they had seen before.

The reason Evelyn had always been called the next generation in musicals.

It was because of her atmosphere.

A child wearing an adult’s mask.

A little girl who stole her mother’s dress.

She had always given off that impression and was often overshadowed on big stages.

Public evaluations had always been along those lines.

But today was different.

Youthful but mature.

It was clearly evident that a strange new charm had been added that wasn’t there before.

“It’s been so long since I saw you in that musical, finally meeting again!”

Evelyn responded to the host’s words with a gentle smile.

“Indeed. I really wanted to come here, I was a huge fan of this show.”

“Really? We’re honored to be able to invite you.”

The host, with somewhat exaggerated gestures, elicited laughter.

And with that, the atmosphere of the talk show instantly softened.

After that, before getting into the main discussion.

The talk show proceeded with light introductory topics.

Starting casually from her birth.

Fun stories from her childhood and so on.

After killing time with the usual content-filling segments.

When the timing felt right, the main topic popped out of the host’s mouth.

“Haha, I see. You’ve been through a lot, but can I ask about something that happened recently?”

“Oh, of course. The food truck? Well… simply put, my Tarzan saved me.”

Not just any Tarzan, but my Tarzan.

The host immediately caught that subtle difference in nuance.

‘Come to think of it.’

The host, who had conversed with countless people, noticed something unusual about her body.

To be more precise, it seemed like she was covering certain areas.

Clearly it was an off-shoulder dress that exposed her shoulders, but.

‘I can see traces of makeup on her shoulders and… chest area, matched to her skin tone.’

The traces were visible.

Though hidden with perfect makeup techniques.

To the eyes of someone who had been an MC for a long time, such traces couldn’t be concealed.

“It was really amazing. We’ve prepared that video, may we show it?”

“Of course. Absolutely, I watch it every day. It was my carelessness, an embarrassing mistake.”

I’m very thankful things turned out well in the end.

Saying that, Evelyn looked at the screen.

It showed Kim Donghu jumping out of the food truck.

And the scene of him hitting the metal sign and perfectly controlling the situation.

It was a very cool sight.

The power of a male, you could say.

‘It is definitely cool.’

Thinking this, the host subtly checked Evelyn’s expression.

‘Huh.’

A face that could only be described as mesmerized.

Beyond simply liking someone as a human being.

A smile showing 100% romantic interest.

Not missing that opening, the host continued.

“There, Donghu Kim very cleverly called you Jane, while looking at you.”

“Ah, yes. My Tarzan… yes, he did.”

My Tarzan, my Tarzan.

It sounded somewhat strange, but the intention was clear.

To put it simply, she was marking her territory.

“While filming Tarzan, you must have been called Jane by many different people, but does it feel different when Tarzan calls you that?”

So the host asked a somewhat bold question.

As if she had been waiting for this question, Evelyn smiled brightly.

“Feel different? Actually, there was no feeling.”

“Why not?”

Like a golden flower blooming radiantly.

Her sapphire blue eyes slowly swept across the audience.

As if she came here specifically to give this answer.

Crossing her legs very seductively, Evelyn slowly opened her mouth.

With pronunciation like sweet chocolate rolling around in her mouth.

“Because no one but Tarzan can call me that.”

Saying this, Evelyn recalled a moment from a few days ago.

Something very intense and hot.

-…Was Jane this troubled too? Meeting a man with such strength?

-I don’t know, I’m in Tarzan’s position, so I wouldn’t know?

-Then let me tell you exactly. Jane was probably very happy but also extremely troubled.

-May I ask why?

-Because even in this moment of conversation, some beast-like man won’t let go of my body.

The memories and warmth of that day still remained in her body.
