“That’s ridiculous!” As expected, Do Sehyun didn’t deviate an inch from predictions and, of course, opposed Seo Heonyoung’s decision. But that didn’t mean Seo Heonyoung was one to back down. “We’ll be busy with the partnership deal. There’s no time to waste on personal matters.” “Is our marriage a personal matter? Have you forgotten? That partnership is with our company, you know? I’m just as busy as you are!” “Then delegate it to your secretary too. It’s…-

“Sunbae, can I ask why?” “Why what?” “Why you suddenly left Korea back then.” When Dojin, who had been so close, vanished overnight, Yeonoh had been worried and asked around. No one knew the situation clearly, which only deepened his concern. Time passed, and the pressures of academics grew. Eventually, waiting for Dojin’s contact took a backseat to finishing reports or dedicating time to assignments. And so, Yeonoh naturally forgot about Dojin. That’s why seeing Dojin’s face…-

Still, he could not keep looking like death warmed over forever. Yeonoh forced the corners of his mouth to lift. “Not at all. I just do not have much energy because it is morning. I apologize if I have caused you any concern.” “Ji Yeonoh.” “I will be on my way first.” In the midst of it all, his heart pounded away, deluded into thinking that Seo Heonyoung was actually worried about him. Feeling like one more word would cause the small tower he had been building for a week to crumble…-

Team Leader Park mouthed ‘sorry’ to him, delivering a silent apology, and then left the office as if fleeing. It was so unfair he could go mad. To think he would run away by himself to save his own skin in this situation. On top of that, things like meeting minutes were saved on the company cloud, so anyone in the secretarial office could open them. Even without him, someone else could have easily covered for it. But what else could a mere salaried employee like Ji Yeonoh do? “What could…-

It was quite an enticing proposal. Seeing that Do Hyungwoo was so readily willing to show his patented technology, it seemed that he was pleased with Heonyoung’s opinion as well. “Very well.” Heonyoung, who had been about to pick up his phone to arrange for a car to be on standby since Ji Yeonoh would be arriving soon and the plans had changed, paused. At The Heritage Cheongdam, any kind of corruption or misconduct could be discussed, but making a simple phone call was impossible. “Well,…-

“Wow…” Yeonoh took a step forward and let out a small gasp of admiration in front of the painting. Back in school, during art class, he nearly lost a friendship after attempting to draw a friend, which showed how little he knew about art. Yet, this piece was so impressive that even Yeonoh, who thought paintings were just canvases full of brushstrokes, couldn’t help but feel awed. The price was 300 million won. He had been shocked by a 50-million-won painting earlier, so was that amount…-

A foolish thought suddenly popped into his head, wondering if taking milk thistle would actually make him feel better, even though it bruised his pride. Even if he was just a passing extra in the story, he wanted to show a better version of himself to the person he liked. As he carefully placed the supplements in his drawer, a light blinked on the desk phone. It was an intercom call from Heonyoung’s office. —Ji Yeonoh, come in. “Yes, Executive Director.” Yeonoh grabbed a notebook and pen…-

"Um, could you possibly take my order normally?" "Are you having your usual today? Americano and a BLT sandwich?" "Yeah, that." As Yeonoh pulled out his card to pay naturally, he hesitated about whether to order for Heonyoung as well. Heonyoung had left work late and looked extremely tired yesterday, so Yeonoh couldn’t help but worry. Even knowing that Seo Heonyoung was better at self-objectification than anyone else, it seemed he had absolutely no interest in taking care of himself. Though…-

Oh… Yeonoh sighed inwardly. He wasn’t oblivious to Heonyoung’s intent in defending him. He probably didn’t want his employee, or by extension himself, to be looked down upon by the other party. But it was a first. No one had ever pulled Yeonoh’s insignificant existence up from the depths like that. “How did a beta like you get selected for the TG Foundation? Be honest, did you cheat on the answers?” “Your dream company is TG Group? Yeonoh, as your teacher, I have a duty to tell you…-

“Oh no, what a shame.” Doh Sehyun, with a face devoid of any genuine emotion, let out a sigh of feigned pity before continuing. “Mr. Yeonoh, how old are you?” “I’m twenty-seven.” “Oh, you’re a bit older, then. You should start taking care of yourself. Your liver can go bad quickly. I’ll send you some milk thistle from our company.” As a managing director, did he not know that not every word that comes out of his mouth qualifies as proper speech? No, he probably knew but…-
