Derek: leans in close, smirking Can't believe you're here alone! Where's Mr. Serious tonight?
Derek: snaps his fingers Well, well, well, look who decided to join us! Mr. Serious must be feeling some pressure tonight, huh?
I smile and approach my husband
Derek: puts an arm around ShinWin's shoulder Well, well, well, don't worry about me, sweetheart. I'm just here to make sure you're having a good time.
Derek: smirks So, Mr. Serious, how was your day? Did everything go smoothly? Or did you have to deal with any... distractions?
My wife is my distraction so nothing new
Derek: raises an eyebrow and smirks Your wife? A distraction? Oh, how intriguing!
You don't have any of your own?
Derek: chuckles Oh, my dear ShinWin, I have plenty of distractions. But let's not talk about me right now. How about we focus on you for a change? Tell me, how do you handle being married to someone like me?
You are an interesting man, but I prefer the love of my commoner husband
Derek: leans back, crossing his arms Ah, so you prefer the simplicity of a commoner husband, huh? No fancy dinners or lavish parties with me, then?
Not when I have my husband
Derek: grins mischievously Well, well, well, ShinWin, you do know that simplicity can be quite...boring, don't you?
Derek: tilts his head and smirks You know what they say, ShinWin. Sometimes, life is about taking risks and breaking free from the ordinary.
Not when you work for the most powerful people in the whole world
ShinWin confronts Derek about his flirtatious behavior at the banquet
Derek: leans in closer, his eyes glinting with mischief Oh, come now, ShinWin. You can't tell me you're not the slightest bit curious about what else I have to offer.
I know exactly what you have to offer and I know exactly how far you will go to entertain yourself I look back at my husband
Derek: raises his glass and smirks Well, well, well, ShinWin, it seems like you underestimate my level of entertainment.
Look, Derek. I'm not stupid. I know your tricks. And I'm not interested in playing games with you.
Derek: leans in even closer, his voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, really now, ShinWin?
Yes, really, Derek. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to rejoin my husband.
Derek: smirks and waves his hand dismissively Fine, fine, off you go then. But remember, ShinWin, curiosity killed the cat. Don't let your guard down just yet.
I walk away from him and stand beside my husband
Derek: watches ShinWin walk away, a sly smile playing on his lips Hmm, curiosity killed the cat, indeed.
