My Unique Goddess: AZALEA

"What are you saying?". Azalea was shocked when she heard Ken's confession. It was like a bomb exploded inside her ears.

"I liked you from the start and now I'm sure that I'm in love with you". He said seriously.

'Oh shoot!, seriously, he's confessing right now, now that I am married! ". Her thoughts are totally blowing her minds out.

Good thing she brought him inside her office if her employees hear this confession of him they'll tease her to death.

"You said, you know that I'm married already, why are you still confessing to me?". She ask him with curiosity.

In her mind if this moment happens along time ago she would be the happiest woman in the world. From her twenty three years of existence this is the first time someone confessed his love for her.

"Because I know it's not a real marriage". He explained.

"But your too late, real or not I'm already married now, whether I like it or not I already have a husband and if I response to your feelings towards me that would be infidelity and that would be wrong". She thought maybe her marriage happened at the wrong time but she doesn't want to betray it and him.

Ken was silent for a moment, he was surprised by her overview in life. She's the type of person who don't blame others for her misfortune. Her perfection in his eyes climbed another notch and it makes him determined to fight for her harder.

"Then let me help you". He said it with a determined tone.

"Help me to what?". She ask confusedly.

"To break the contract". He answered directly to her.

Azalea bit her tongue she don't know what to say.

"I know you don't love him, you are just forced into this situation. I want you to get back your freedom again". Then he paused and look at her deeply. "And I want you to give me a chance to show you how I really feel about you". He continued.

Azalea look deeply in his eyes. She can read his determination to set her free from Jack but does she really want to?.

Jack awakened something inside her that she never felt before. At first she thought it was just her desire but today she can't tell what is it now.

The suggestion Ken is giving her is very confusing. She does hate the idea of marriage without love but the thought of leaving his alleged husband now struck hundreds of needles inside her heart.

"I'm not sure about your idea, I mean, I tried to look it over and over again but I can't seem to find any faults in it". She tried to explain herself but she don't want him to feel that she's trying to avoid his offer.

"I know, Jack is also trying his hard to break that contract too, we both know that he wants to marry Sue Antaler even though his family is against it". Ken said it without hinting any bad intentions.

Azalea was stunned by his words. Another bomb just exploded inside her ears. She never thought Jack is trying to get rid of her all this time but why is he doing all those things to her. She almost gave herself to him.

Ken felt Azalea got upset after hearing what he just said. He becomes worried and hoping she hasn't fall for him yet. Jack already have Sue he won't let him have her too.

"Do you still need time to think?". He don't want her to think that he's rushing her but he will slowly going to push her till she herself do it on her own.

"I'll think about it, besides it's my personal problem I shouldn't bother you with it". She act as normal as before but inside her she feels pain.

"Bother me all you can, I will always be here for you even if you need me or not, you can put your trust in me". He said sincerely.

Azalea just fall into silence. She's feeling upset but she don't want Ken to see it.

A knock interrupt them.

"Hey Boss, Uncle Long is looking for you". Cori peek his head behind the door. "Its urgent".

"Tell him I'll be there". She wants to thank him for saving her. She don't know how to send Ken away.

Ken feels like this is his cue to leave. He took so much of her time but he's not sorry at least now she knows he cares about her a lot.

"I'll take my leave, I think your quite busy". The sincerity in his face is beaming. "Think about what I just said, whatever happens, I will be here".

Azalea just nod. She likes the thought but she's contemplating about his idea. She needs to think it through.

Ken left and Azalea felt upset. But she knows he means no harm he's only concerned about her.

"Where's Uncle Long?". She asked Cori.

"I don't know". He bluntly said.

Azalea look at at him in surprise.

"You said he called for me".

"I lied".

"What!.... But why?". She was very shock.

"Because you look upset".

"What?!".

"That guy likes you....Like a lot!". He exaggerated his last words.

"I know". Azalea just sigh.

"But his doing it a wrong way".

"What?... I mean how.... Why?". She sound so confused.

"He's breaking you and your man". He's referring to Jack.

"My man..... Who, Jack?... He is not my man". She blushingly deny it.

Cori chuckles. He knows he just cornered her. She's even blushing as red as tomato.

"Don't be such a coy, if you like your king make him yours whether he likes it or not". He even wink at her.

"My king?".

"Of course your King, your the Queen remember".

"But what if he doesn't like me?". She lowered her head.

"Beat him to the ground until he can't walk anymore and decided to stay at your side". He said then laugh out loud.

"Pfftttt". Azalea laugh too. "You are morbidly funny". And she just laugh her heart out.

When she got tired of laughing she looked at Cori.

"You don't like him?". She ask him seriously.

"Not a bit". He answered honestly.

"Why?... Everybody I know likes Ken".

"I'm not one of those everybody you know who likes him". He grinned, he made it sounded like a joke.

"Why then?". She ask again.

"Because he's a wolf in sheep's clothing, that's why". He told her directly.
