Daniel chuckled when he saw this, "We're just dancing, why are you so nervous?".

"All eyes are on us. And they're all your people. I'm kinda pressured.", she whispered to him.

When they reached the dancefloor, the emcee saw them. He thought about making the event more lively so he announced, "Ladies and Gentlemen, our beloved CEO Daniel Cho brought his date on the dance floor. Let's give them a big hand.", Now everyone's attention is really on them!

"Oh, My God."

Daniel pulled her close to him, placed a hand on the small of her back and the other was holding Samantha's hand. Instantaneously, Samantha placed a hand on his arm. "Just relax, I got you.", he whispered to her ear and she loosened up.

They didn't do any fancy steps, they just swayed to the rhythm of the song, 'The Way You Look Tonight' in the style of Michael Bublé. The jazz music filled the hall with the singer's melodious voice and everyone enjoyed the relaxing sound.

"Have I told you that you looked beautiful tonight?"

Samantha looked at him, "Only tonight?"

Daniel chuckled, "All the time, and especially tonight.", Samantha smiled.

They weren't the only couple on the dancefloor, there were several other pairs dancing to the tune too but people were more drawn to the stunning CEO and his date. Men were envious at him looking at Samantha who looked really alluring, and the women were also very much jealous that they didn't get the chance to show off in front of the CEO because his attention was always with his date; especially a certain Director Leah Tan who was feeling desolate ever since the start of the program.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the hall, Hannah and Seo Joon stood beside each other and were also watching the couple on the dance floor when they started dancing. Samantha's brother looked at Hannah who was swaying her body to the music a little. Without saying anything else, he extended his hand to her.

Hannah who had a few pieces of Hershey kisses on her hands glanced at Seo Joon's hand and without hesitating, she put a piece of chocolate in it.

When Seo Joon saw what she did, his brows furrowed. Then he took the piece with his other hand and put it in his pocket and held out his hand once again and looked at her.

Hannah glared at him, "Tch, you can get your own chocolates you know. There's a lot on the table!", she said as she put another piece of Hershey's in his hand.

Seo Joon sighed at the dumb girl next to her, he tried with all his might to stop himself from rolling his eyes at her. Putting the chocolate aside, he held out his hand one more time and said, "Your hand, dummy! We're dancing!"

"Oh.", Hannah looked at him, a bit dumbfounded but placed her hand in his anyway and they walked towards the center of the room. Both of them were quiet and didn't say anything as they moved from side to side.

The parents of Daniel as well as the parents of Samantha also joined them on the dancefloor.

Samantha and Daniel looked at each other's eyes, they seem to have forgotten the other people around them. "You look so dapper and dashing, Mr. Cho.".

Daniel leaned closer to her hair and inhaled her familiar scent. "I can't get enough of you, you smell so good."

Daniel let go of her back and pulled her towards the doors exiting the hall, Samantha just allowed him to drag her.

"Wait, Daniel... where are you taking me?"

Daniel Cho led her to the resting room, when he opened the door, there was a couple making out; probably one of his company employees.

With a cold voice that shocked the 2 people, he roared, "Get out!"

They scrambled their way towards the door. Daniel closed the door and locked it.

Without delay, he pushed Samantha's back to the wall, "Dan--", she uttered before Daniel silenced her with his lips. She was surprised by the sudden aggressiveness but she did not fight her urges to kiss him back. He loved how Samantha's lips tasted as he sucked on it gently, she moaned when she felt the pain and she fastened her arms around his neck.

Daniel lifted her up and placed her on top of the dresser. They looked at each other in the eye, she saw how hungry Daniel's eyes were as if he was looking at his prey. Grabbing the edge of her tulle dress, he raised it so he can pull her legs apart and position himself in the middle. Daniel placed small kisses on Samantha's right ear, slowly traveling down to her jaw, then to her neck while stroking both her thighs with his warm hands.

Samantha grabbed onto Daniel's hair and bit her lip while he made love bites on her bare neck. She was breathless as she could only relish the mixture of feelings she had at the moment.

Just as the two of them were in the heat of frenzy, Daniel's phone rang.

"Honey... your... phone...",

"Ignore it."

But the ringing didn't stop and it interrupted their session already. Reluctantly, Daniel pulled away from Samantha and reached for his phone to answer the call, "This better be important Ahn.", he spoke with a hint of annoyance.

He didn't say anything as he only quietly listened to the other man on the phone.

"Got it.", he said before he hung up the call.

"Is everything all right?"

"Don't worry about it.", he fixed Samantha's dress and helped her down from the dresser before he cupped her face with his big hand, he said, "Samantha, will you go home with me tonight?"

She was confused for a bit before she realized what he meant, "Y..your house?"

Daniel nodded and held her close to him, "We don't have to do anything that you don't want to."

Samantha looked at him as she tried to study his eyes that's looking back at her. 'If what I'm thinking right now is what he meant, am I ready for that?'. She didn't answer him, she just kept on looking at him and pondered about what she feels at the moment.

Seeing that she didn't respond to his words, Daniel Cho held her hand and led her out of the room.

As they got into the car, Samantha still didn't say anything. She was deep in thoughts trying to figure out how she feels about Daniel.

From time to time, he glanced at her while she was sitting in the passenger's seat of his Maybach. Daniel is actually also nervous.

After a few minutes of driving, Samantha saw a red giant sign high above that said McDonalds.

"Stop the car."

Daniel stepped on the brakes and a short screeching sound was heard, "Why? What?"

"Sorry... um, can we go inside?", Samantha said as she points to the fast food restaurant on her right.

Daniel peeked through the window and he gave a hearty laugh, "You never fail to surprise me.", he said as he drove towards the parking lot.

It was 10 in the evening and there were still a lot of customers inside, Daniel and Samantha entered the restaurant and heads turned to their direction. Because their masks are still on, people didn't recognize them so even though there were stares and whispers, they didn't care.

They reached the front of the line and the crew looked at them with a puzzled expression, "M-may I take your order?"

Samantha didn't hesitate and ordered in a breeze. She then took out a bill and paid for their food. After their food has been assembled, they chose a table by the window.

As they settled on their chairs, eyes were still on them. They looked like they came straight from a theater play and stopped by to eat a late night snack.

Daniel looked at Samantha quizzically as he watched her dip the fries in the ice cream sundae before eating.

"What?", she asked nonchalantly.

"Nothing."

Samantha got a piece of french fries, dipped it in the sundae and held it in front of Daniel's mouth. He looked at it like it was it was foreign, "Nah... I'm good.", he said before he took a sip from his cola.

Samantha gave him a glare, "Try it.", she ordered, enunciating slowly.

Daniel gulped before he hesitantly opened his mouth and ate it. He chewed for a few seconds before he swallowed. Samantha just waited for his reaction but his emotionless expression, especially with his mask on, didn't give way. 'Did he like it? Or did he not? Why isn't he saying anything?'

When they arrived at his penthouse, Samantha was once again in a trance as they slowly ascended to the top floor. Before their fast food stopover, she thought that the queasy feeling she had was because she didn't have enough food from the party. But even after eating and driving towards his place, her stomach churned once again. The feeling was even more intense than before; her hands were cold and her feet got all sweaty. They were already in the living room when Samantha snapped out of her thoughts.

"You seem to be deep in thoughts... are you okay?", Daniel said as he touched Samantha's cheeks.

She looked at him and nodded, "I'm fine."

When she said this, Daniel carried her up in his arms and walked towards his bedroom. It was the first time that Samantha was in his room. The last time that they stopped by his penthouse, they were in a hurry before they went to The Kim's Family Estate.

Daniel carefully placed her in the middle of his bed and he laid beside her.. He brought her close to him and looked into her eyes before he kissed her lips ever so tenderly as he embraced her in his arms.
