It felt similar to when his father died in an accident, and the truth was buried without being properly revealed.
It seemed like he had felt this way before.
Even though it was something that had come into his hands, something he must know, the feeling he had when it slipped away from his hands. That feeling back then was similar.
So, perhaps it was more annoying.
“Driver.”
Doha, who had been looking out the window, called the taxi driver.
“Yes, sir.”
“Instead of HJ Hotel, please go to Haeiri. I’ll give you plenty of fare.”
Doha handed a few checks to the taxi driver.
The taxi soon reset the destination, and Doha lowered his eyelids.

In the dark retinal area, the image of Seo Yeoeun, the lingering figure of that woman, remained for a long time.
When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was a white fluorescent light. And a white ceiling.
When she turned her head slightly, she saw a curtain with a hospital logo.
‘Ah, it’s a hospital.’
Past midnight, Seo Yeoeun was brought to the hospital by Chadoha.
She fell asleep after receiving the tranquilizer, waking up once in the middle of the night but succumbing to drowsiness again.
How strong a tranquilizer was given to still feel groggy?
Yeoeun, moving her stiff body slightly, reached out for the curtain.
At that moment, as the curtain swayed, a nurse entered.
“Did you sleep well?”
Behind the brightly greeting nurse, a familiar face appeared.

Chadoha’s secretary, Manager Kim Jungju.
“I’ll take the needle out now. Your fever has gone down, but if you overexert yourself, it might go up again. Don’t overdo it.”
The nurse’s nagging continued for a while.
While Yeoeun listened to the embarrassing scolding with a sheepish face, Manager Kim Jungju approached.
Still wearing a pleasant smile, he looked somewhat tired.
As she tried to get up from the bed, Manager Kim Jungju came over and held her arm.
“Don’t move too quickly. You might feel dizzy due to the effects of the medicine.”
Sure enough. She felt even more dizzy than yesterday.
Yeoeun, who cautiously moved her body, was handed a medicine packet by Manager Kim Jungju.
It was a prescribed medicine, and he urged her to take it as they left the emergency room together.

“I’ll drive you home, Seo Yeoeun.”
Manager Kim Jungju pointed to Chadoha’s car parked in the parking lot.
Now, just looking at the car made her heart flutter.
Yeoeun, hesitating, looked for traces of Chadoha, like a habit.
“The director is at Haeiri.”
To her, Manager Kim Jungju informed about Chadoha.
“The director went to see his mother. He’s at Haeiri.”
“Ah, yes.”
What was I going to say?
Embarrassed at thinking that I had assumed Chadoha would come to the hospital, Yeoeun nodded with her gaze averted.

Even though he had sent Manager Kim Jungju to take care of her, the fact that he wasn’t here disappointed her. She still seemed unable to collect herself.
To her, Manager Kim Jungju delivered surprising news.
“Rest well until the weekend, and come to the company from Monday.”
Yeoeun widened her eyes in surprise.
“Come to the company?”
To the company?
“Morning message received today.”
To the astonished Yeoeun, Manager Kim Jungju smiled and conveyed the message in a friendly voice.
“Starting from next Monday, there will be a groundbreaking ceremony for the Ichon Hanju Bio Plant 3. He said to rest until the weekend and come to the company from Monday to prepare well for the image and making for that time. He also said to bring that damn portfolio.”
“Then…”

Could it be that he was accepting her as an image trainer?
Emotions surged in her chest to the point of being painful.
“Yes, although it’s temporary, he said it wouldn’t be bad to show your skills at least once.”
Temporary or not, it wasn’t bad at all.
She sees her as a supporter, not just a plaything.
“I look forward to working with you. Seo Yeoeun.”
“I, on the contrary, look forward to it, Manager.”
Yeoeun bowed to Manager Kim Jungju.
If only Chadoha were in front of her.
If she had heard this news from Chadoha.
She might not have been able to overcome the emotions exceeding the limit and could have embraced him.

That’s how delighted she was.
“Good news from the morning.”
Chahyun, answering Yeoeun’s call, sipped coffee.
In her other hand was a photo handed over by Director Gong this morning.
The sight of Doha following Yeoeun into her house.
In a matter of minutes, leaving the house with her again.
Chahyun focused on Doha’s expression in the two photos.
It was Doha’s characteristic cold gaze, but when he followed Yeoeun, Doha was clearly smiling.
And when he left the house, Doha’s appearance was excessively human.
When did the humanity disappear from Chadoha, and the emotions revealed in Doha’s expression were clear anger, some concern, and scattered compassion.

It was the embodiment of complex emotions that couldn’t be expressed in a single word.
“Now it depends on Yeoeun.”
Exhaling thinly, Chahyun threw the photo onto the table and said.
“You know, right? Move Doha and get rid of Kim Haeri first?”
When she said she had become Doha’s image trainer, she was excited, but somehow, it was quiet beyond the handset.
“Don’t say you can’t do it. I believe you can do better than anyone.”
Chahyun, who gently tapped the photo on the table with her fingertips, spoke.
“Yeoeun, listen to me carefully.”
Long words were unnecessary.
“You’re worth the money.”

There was much meaning in it.
As an intelligent person, Yeoeun would penetrate the hidden meaning, and as a trustworthy person, she would surely keep the promise.
After a while, Yeoeun answered quietly.
-Yes. I’m worth the money.
Only then did Chahyun smile with satisfaction.
“Okay. I’ll transfer the money right away. Let’s do well from now on, Yeoeun.”
