In the morning, Tae-jun’s secretary, Song Moon-kyung, summoned So-eun. Her face, brightened by her boyfriend’s gifts, quickly clouded over with anxiety.
Was it because of yesterday’s fire incident or her drunken antics?
‘Probably both.’
Resigned, So-eun stood up from her desk.
She feared immediate dismissal for her disgraceful behavior yesterday, though it wasn’t her intention to burden anyone with her drunkenness. Or was it?
Her memories were patchy, only fueling her anxiety about what else might have transpired. Heavily, she made her way to the 7th-floor office.
Secretary Moon-kyung, without giving So-eun a moment to catch her breath, kindly opened the office door for her.
“Director, good morning.”
So-eun bowed but couldn’t lift her head, frozen in place.
Tae-jun stood from his desk and approached her with a slow, almost tiger-like stride, instilling fear. So-eun could only see his chest in her field of vision. Watching his shirt tighten with each calm breath, she swallowed dryly, expecting a harsh gaze.
Better to face the music first, but Tae-jun remained silent even as he drew near. With a trembling heart, So-eun slowly lifted her head, only to be startled again. Knowing he was close, yet still feeling suffocated when their eyes met.
But she couldn’t escape. He seemed like a seasoned predator, calculating when to pounce on his territory’s intruder.
So-eun entered the office, her usually vibrant voice betraying her nervousness.
Tae-jun got up and walked towards her, each step making her shrink further.
He stood silently, observing her, until she finally looked up, clearly startled.
With her glasses gone, her clear, innocent face was fully visible.
Tae-jun felt a sense of relief as if the clouds in his mind had cleared.
So-eun’s small face with well-balanced features was striking.
Was her glasses a disguise? How severe was her myopia that it magnified her eyes?
Her amber eyes sparkled under the light, enticing him against his better judgment.
So-eun certainly had something that provoked possessive desires. He had thought it was just instinct based on memory, but it was more. Her small, delicate frame, fair skin, and soft looks made him want to provoke her, to see her reaction. Watching her stirred a warmth in his core.
He wanted to have this woman in his palm. To do that…
After a long silence, Tae-jun finally spoke.
“Before we talk about work.”
“…”
“Don’t you have anything to say?”
When Tae-jun teased her, So-eun’s parched lips parted.
“Yesterday, I’m truly sorry.”
Her quick apology relieved him.
“What are you sorry about?”
“Because I was drunk. I said things that were disrespectful to you.”
“Do you remember what disrespectful things you said?”
Unable to admit her memory gaps, yet not fully recalling everything, she hesitated.
“…Bits and pieces.”
“Bits and pieces.”
“Yes…”
“How can you know what was disrespectful with bits and pieces?”
“…Still, I’m sorry.”
“Let’s drop it. Moving on.”
Tae-jun decided to let it slide. That wasn’t his concern.
“You’re not wearing glasses today.”
“Yes.”
“Are you wearing contact lenses?”
“Yes.”
Yesterday her face with glasses seemed suffocating, but today it was her responses that felt stifling. Did they send a Yes-bot in place of Han So-eun? She was much more interesting and human when drunk. The thought of returning her glasses to this state of boring replies made Tae-jun feel bitter.
Still, he thought of giving what he intended, but the Yes-bot cautiously initiated a conversation first.
“Director, have you by chance seen my glasses?”
A smirk stretched across Tae-jun’s lips.
“Well, I can’t remember. Were they expensive?”
“No, but they’re precious to me. My boyfriend gifted them to me…”
“Didn’t you have a fight with your boyfriend?”
So-eun’s eyes fluttered, as if thinking, ‘Did I tell this man about that too?’
“We had a brief argument yesterday, but we’ve made up now.”
“…”
“Anyway, you haven’t seen my glasses, have you? I think I was wearing them when I left the bar last night, but I couldn’t find them this morning.”
After giving brief answers so far, she elaborated only on this question. What was she expecting him to do?
“I haven’t seen them.”
Tae-jun retracted his hand from the desk, his intention to return the glasses vanishing.
“That must be upsetting. I hope you find them.”
He almost added that the glasses didn’t suit her anyway but changed the subject.
“Now, let’s get to what I wanted to talk about, Chief Han So-eun.”
With an intense look as if bracing herself, So-eun took a deep breath.
“You remember I told you to wrap up your current work, right?”
“Yes, I remember.”
Hearing her response, Tae-jun immediately grabbed the door handle. As he opened the door and looked back, So-eun exited the room, understanding his cue. After letting her out, Tae-jun followed.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
