The dinner was very professional, yet friendly. With us, there were Mr. Park and Ms. Kim, but also a few other executives from the tech giant who were more or less involved with the partnership.
The restaurant was one of the best in the city, located on the last floor of the fifth tallest building in Seoul. The view we had was stunning, and the lit city surrounding us was an impressive sight.
Lex and I were seated next to each other, and I was thankful for it. Everyone here knew each other, and the conversation flowed easily between them. But as strangers, Lex and I weren't as included, even though our hosts did everything they could to make us a part of the conversation. Despite my quick nap, I was exhausted. It was 5 AM for me, and all I wanted was to get back to bed.
The food was delicious, the place famous for how they mixed French and Korean cuisine. Everything was beautifully plated, with amazing compositions, colors, and multiple bites of various things to eat. Each portion was small, but we had so many courses planned that I knew I would be full by the end of it.
Ms. Kim was to my left, and I spoke with her for a good part of the evening. It was interesting to hear about her experience, and how she made her way up to the position she occupied now for the company. She was really enthusiastic about the partnership, and explained to me how the Korean company was also working on finding processes to help people with disabilities.
By the end of the evening, after three appetizers, two starter courses, three main courses, and an assortment of desserts, I was properly full. And that was without counting what Lex had given me back at the hotel.
My throat was still slightly irritated from the rough face fuck, so I was constantly reminded of our scandalous naughtiness. It was somehow exhilarating how professional we were acting when we'd been so incredibly filthy mere hours ago. The way Lex would sometimes look at me, his eyes lingering on my mouth, showed me how much it was on his mind, too. Who knew oral could be so much fun?
When the dinner was over, it took forever to properly salute everyone and finally be able to leave. Relief flooded me when we eventually entered the elevator to get out of here. Lex hailed a cab and opened the door for me before joining me in the backseat. The drive back to the hotel was smooth, and I dozed off, my exhaustion impossible to fight anymore.
"Andrea," Lex called out, gently grazing my cheek with the back of a finger.
I straightened up abruptly, understanding I'd ended up with my head on his shoulder during my sleep. "Sorry," I mumbled, stopping myself from scratching my eyes at the last second, remembering I was wearing makeup.
"It's okay. We're here. Let's get you to bed."
I nodded, still foggy, and let him lead us back to our suite, not paying attention to our surroundings. Once we were there, he gave me a kiss on top of my head and wished me good night, which I returned, interrupted by an irrepressible yawn. I showered quickly, the water waking me a little, slipped on my cute pajamas, and brushed my teeth.
